Your body – the home you carry everywhere

Publicerat av

Your body; the one place you’ll live in for your entire life, no matter where you go, what you achieve, or how much your circumstances change it will always be with you as long as you breathe. It is the temple that holds your thoughts, your emotions, your stories; the only home your soul has known in this lifetime. And still, how often do we forget to care for it the same way we would a precious house or sacred space? Before you knew language, you knew sensations such as touch, scent, sight, sound and taste. From day one your body has been communicating with you. Every cell of your body holds information. Have you ever taken the time to listen? Like any home, your loving body requires maintenance — it feeds on rest, nourishment, movement, and compassion. It needs to be listened to when something isn’t working quite right, and appreciated for all the wonderful things it allows you to do each day: breathing, walking, creating, loving, laughing. Living. However, many of us choose …

Part 2; The Season of Receiving

Publicerat av

I allow magic to enter my life. After the season of creating space comes a different kind of stillness — not the stillness of letting go, but the stillness of receiving. Now that space has been made, there is room for grace to enter. Room for the gentle, the unexpected, the deeply aligned. But this season asks for a different kind of strength — one that doesn’t grasp or demand, but waits with trust. It’s a quiet courage: there is no rush to fill the silence.But to let the soil remain untouched a little longer.To let the garden grow in its own rhythm. You are not behind.You are not late.You are not lost. You are becoming fluent in a new language: receptivity. Let this be a time where you say yes only when your whole body lights up in response. Where you welcome softness not as a luxury, but as a necessity. Where you let yourself be surprised by what comes — because you no longer need to control it to feel safe. This is …

What Ballet Has Taught Me: Starting in My 40s

Publicerat av

Ballet est l’amour. I never imagined I would start ballet in my early 40s. Ballet belonged to another world—one of childhood dreams and youthful flexibility, of effortless grace and lifelong training. Yes, my teenage years were largely spent doing gymnastics, which undoubtedly provided me with a strong foundation. But something inside me whispered: Why not ballet, and why not now? At first, I discovered ballet through watching YouTube classes online, but eventually, I decided to step into a studio for the first time, feeling both excited and a little absurd – Ain’t I’m too old for this?! I was a beginner among beginners, and yet, I felt at peace. Ballet has been one of the greatest gifts I have ever given myself. It is not only the movement—It is a language of its own, a conversation between the body and the soul—spoken in French, a language I must admit I do not speak, at all. But I do speak love, and ballet, after all, is love. Every time I show up in class it teaches …

E-book: Relax, my darling, unwind – A Guide to Living in the Present Moment

Publicerat av

“Relax, my darling, unwind. You are coming home, to yourself.” The present moment – the only moment that matters, the only moment that exists. We humans are very good at preparing to live, but not very good a living. Habitually dwelling in the past and dreaming of the unknown future, while having difficulties concentrating the mind on the present moment.

Our society glorifies busyness, and productivity is often equated with success, and that crucial rest is mistaken for laziness. But what if the true essence of a fruitful life isn’t in the rush, but in the still, quiet moment in-between? What if joy, clarity, and contentment are found not in doing more but in being present?

Take a Step Back Today and Look at All the Beautiful Things You Have

Publicerat av

We seldom appreciate were we are. Instead, we’re often focused on what’s next: the next meeting, the next to-do, the next goal, the next challenge. While forward movement is both natural and necessary, it’s equally important to pause and appreciate where we already are, what we already accomplished. When was the last time you stopped, took everything in and savoured the moment? The beauty in simply being. The smell of fresh rain, the warmth of sunlight on your face, or the laughter of a loved one. These moments are fleeting, but they are powerful reminders that beauty is often found in the simplest things, in the stillness between it all. If you can’t even appreciate these little things how do you think you will ever appreciate the grander things? You will always be looking for more. Taking a step back to notice and appreciate these small details of life helps us realise that joy is always within reach. It reminds us that even on the hardest days, there’s something to be grateful for. Take a …
