The Root | The Metal Element

As we moved into September and autumn, we entered the metal element. Autumn is a time of harvest. We gather what we have planted and nurtured throughout spring and summer, while nature slowly begins to draw its energy inward. The trees let go of their leaves. The energy of the plant returns to its roots. Everything begins to slow down, turn inward and prepare for the quieter months ahead. There is something beautiful in this transition. We are invited to pause and acknowledge

The Growth | How I built my routines

During the summer holidays, I managed to establish a small morning and evening routine for myself. It may sound simple, but for me it was actually quite a big step. I’ve often wanted to create routines, but found it surprisingly difficult to make them stick. The holidays gave me the space to experiment. With fewer obligations and more time to slow down, I could simply try things without the usual pressure of everyday life. And I realised something - I already knew inside of m

The Growth | When fear speaks

Monthly Growth | When Fear Speaks There are moments in life when fear speaks louder than trust. For me, one of those moments is flying. I don't enjoy flying. In fact, just thinking about stepping onto a plane makes my stomach tighten. Yet, because my brother lives in the United States, I board a plane every year to visit him. In addition I love traveling. Every time I fly, I need to gather a little courage. I know that statistically flying is one of the safest ways to travel,

The Growth | How can I slow down my monkey mind?

A question I found myself asking again recently. Not long ago, I came back to a practice I had learned years before: tapping. I wasn't trying to stop my thoughts. Instead, I simply let them be. As I gently tapped different points on my body and focused on my breath, something shifted. Within a minute or two, my thoughts became noticeably quieter. It reminded me of sand settling on the ocean floor. The sand is still there, but the water becomes clear again. For me, tapping isn

Sunday Morning Online Yoga

There is something special about Sunday mornings. The week hasn’t started yet. The pace is slower. The house is quiet. The day still feels full of possibility. This is exactly the space in which I love to practise yoga — and why I created my Sunday morning online class. A gentle start into your week My Sunday class is a 60-minute live online yoga session designed to help you: wake up your body softly release tension from the week reconnect with your breath create a calm, cle

Hitting the pause button

In the performance‑driven world we live in, hitting the pause button every now and then can feel surprisingly hard. Taking time to reflect — or even to do nothing — often slips to the bottom of the list. At least, that’s how it feels for me. I regularly find myself asking: What actually helps me slow down? And how can I make space for it without turning rest into another task to achieve? Over time, I’ve collected a small list of ways to pause. Some work better than others,

Yoga poses for sneezy days

Winter often comes with cozy evenings, warm sweaters, hot chocolates — and unfortunately, coughing, sneezing, and a constantly running nose . When a cold settles in, it’s a quiet reminder to slow down and take extra care of ourselves. This is not the time for intense workouts or dynamic, sweaty yoga flows. Pushing through exhaustion can actually delay recovery. Instead, your body benefits most from warmth, plenty of fluids (ideally warm), nourishing soups, and gentle, calming

Sankalpa

At the beginning of a new year, many of us feel the urge to set an intention.In yoga, this intention is called a sankalpa . A sankalpa is not a resolution or a promise to do better. It is a clear, heartfelt intention — something you can return to throughout the year. It works gently and over time. In yoga philosophy, a sankalpa is said to settle in the subconscious, where it can support real and lasting inner change. * Finding your sankalpa To find your own sankalpa, start
