This morning my mum rang and said something about my work towards the end of our conversation. We were video chatting and the connection had been weak throughout our conversation, but just in that moment, I didn't hear her anymore. I was so keen to find out what she had to say! But the connection remained rubbish, as if it wasn't meant to be. I think at the beginning she had said something along the lines of being proud of me, but the call kept cutting out. By the time it got better again, she...

The new moon is all about setting intentions. And I love how it reminds me every 4 weeks to do so. To not forget, helping me to create the life of my dreams, in the holistic way I envision it. The days leading up to the new moon are often drawing up tougher emotions. Have you ever noticed this pattern? It's for us, and I have started working with it. Ever since I have known about this, I no longer want the tough emotions to go away, I pay attention to them instead.

Being ourselves is something most dream of, but don't live. Our life experience tends to make that difficult for us. There is a lot of judgement that went into us. Both, by others, but also by ourselves. We can't control what others think about us. We try, but we learn it's impossible. With a 5 in my Human Design profile, I could write books about this... But the part we can work with, and the part that hurts us even more, in my opinion, is our own judgement of ourselves. We each view the world...

This morning, I worked on trying to figure out my core message once again. It sent me on a journey of diving deeply into myself... I had attended a workshop on that topic last week, and it was a good workshop, that came with a really good workbook.... But.... once again, I felt like being confined when I worked my way through it: into one message only. But I am more than one message.... And I don't just want to target people.... I understand the reason behind the method, because of course I...

That sounds weird, doesn’t it? It does to me :-) But I have tried a lot of planning and goal setting systems. They have all taught me a lot, but none ever worked for me. And I am battling a bit with a story around that – did the system not work, or did I not put enough effort in, or did I give up too early? I have a long history of trying to find a structure or systems that work for me.... because I have a very flowy and intuitive mind...

I have a long, long history of searching for structures and systems that work for me. The reason I am dedicating this blog article to this topic is because I suspect I am not the only one in search of a system that works for them. Additionally, I have seen all my life that copying other people's systems doesn't work for a lot of people. And that that sets up for, in my opinion, unnecessary self-criticism. I therefore propose we find what works for us individually. Here is what I am going to try.

Now, the current moment. Have you ever thought about the concept of Now? Are you good at being in the Now? I am not good at being present in the moment. I find it much easier to hang out in the past or worry about the future. Actually, worrying about the future is my personal strength and for many years anxiety ruled my life, to the degree of an anxiety disorder. There are lots of cool quotes about the present moment and it's interesting to give it some thought. The past is past. Nothing ...

I started playing with morning routines in 2021. I wasn't in a good state back then and scrolled the internet up and down in the hope for help. I came across Mindvalley, an online education platform that focuses on personal growth, wellness, and spiritual development and watched a lot of their free videos on YouTube. Vishen, the founder, talked in many about the benefits of a morning routine. I liked the idea to start my day with something I enjoy or that is good for me.

Last year I wrote a blog post called „My Secret Soul Garden“ and I am giving today’s blog post the same title because it’s kind of the back story to that original post. In this one I am going to tell you how this blog started. How I started. I am telling you this story, because it kind of says a lot about me, but also because it shows where I came from and what my intention for writing this blog is.

I dropped off my daughter at school the other day and decided to take a walk in this mystical fog that prevailed that morning. 🌫️ It reminded me of a poem we learned at school, which always stuck with me: Hermann Hesse's The Fog. It's gloomy and fitted my teenage mood and yet I always felt it is more than that. It isn't just gloomy, It is wise beyond words.
