We Are a Soul in a Body.

Dr Sue Morter*, as do many other of my mentors**, talks so vividly about us, being souls in a body, that I always feel very inspired by her, and privileged to learn from her. I just listened to her meditation*** ‘Redefining Sabotage’ where she said this immensely...

Expressing Gratitude.

Thank You, Thanks, Cheers, Dank u, Danke schön, Merci, Grazie, Gracias, Efcharisto, Tak, Arigato, … We say it easily, and all the time.  And that’s a good thing! But do we actually think about the deeper meaning of what we’re saying? Do we feel gratitude while saying...

Don’t Be Sorry, Be Better.

When I heard someone saying this last week, it resonated with me immediately! I thought: that is exactly how I feel about people saying ‘sorry’!! I always struggle when people keep apologizing, but then do nothing to change their behavior. Those apologies mean nothing...

The Morning After…

Last week I talked about creating an evening routine, so that everyone could learn, how to have a good night sleep. I hope you already started doing the routine, and who knows, maybe you already feel a little bit of the good it can bring you. I sure hope so. But then,...

What You Resist, Persists.

Have you ever noticed that, the moment you stop stressing about something, the moment you stop fighting against a certain situation, the moment you stop resisting change, … things seem to become less stressful, less problematic, less frightening, …? I’ve needed years...

Do The Best You Can…

Is This Really Necessary? Is This Really Important?

Whenever I go into stress-, doubt- or worry-modus, I ask myself these questions and guess what: in 95% of the cases, or even more, the answer is NO! It's not important nor necessary. We tend to give too much weight to everything in life. We believe that, if we do not...
