My habit, my home



I discovered that a habit is not really mine. It is a routine that i am emotionally attached to. A thing that i cling on to because it's a place I  know too well to be able to transform it. It's like my home but without the roof or a belief that is unlikely to be changed so much i think it's rooted in my system.

The day i have dared to turn the little angle that i looked my life with, I have altered this habit, and I have started to change myself.
It doesn't take only the few degrees of this angle to do this, but half of my awareness and discipline I believe.
The day i have discovered my habit, is the day I have discovered another alternative. Waiting to make this change will only turn into self-denial rather then fooling myself that i will actually do something about it.

So what to do?

The day I make the discovery of a habit that is no longer suiting me, is the day I will change it to it's fullest and subtract it of my daily life.

It has been snowing tonight.

A loved one has been lost, and there is deep sorrow among the family. I wish I could be there to support them in this moment, thou they are all in my thoughts.
Loosing someone makes me really think how vulnerable we are, how easy it is just to slide out to the unknown and desapear from this form and melt into all elements of the universe. It is a beautiful perspective, but since I don't have the tools to grasp this vastness it remains still as a beautiful thought.
Besides what happened I have to be inspired to share the tiny moments of everyday life since I wake up until I lay down to sleep. I have to remind myself not taking for granted that I will wake up and my world will stay as I found it the night before. So I need to live good and fully and dare kindly to be me, respecting others.

I heard this 12 year old saying" one shouldn't fear to be oneself, you are what you are, and one has the chance to be it only once". How wise are these words?

Fear, oh fear, I am not afraid of you... You are my best friend...

Yoga & Portugal



I think this post is only for the brave :)
Yes I am planning another little trip: a bit longer in extent. This is an idea still in progress, but I think I am heading south for more than a month.
With no excuses and a full open heart I am diving into the yoga teaching. Guess what? that's when you come into the picture!

Who dares then attending my classes while there? Between the beginning of April until mid May you can meet me somewhere between Lisbon, Cascais and Colares (I will be coming back with fresh details). It's not that I am a yoga guru (ahah ah god knows  how I am stretching my comfort zone into the unknown while finishing my teacher training course greener than a green pea:)), but god damn I am excited to try this one out!

Just join, and if you are my friend it's free muuuuuuaaaaahhh no excuses not show up!

Smoothies & a walk in the park



 


Today is a Good day!
But then again they all are, It's more what we do out of  them.

We have sunshine thou, and that my friends it's all worth commemorating: I don't remember last time I saw it in this Swedish grey sky.
So, once we are looking up to this incredible blue we might as well just go for a power walk with no excuses! Don't wait until it's the right moment, it won't be better than the one you are in right now, once you miss it, there will be no sun at all :)

Before that you have to indulge yourself in a really fantastic smoothly (found these 2 recipes in the last Elle magazine of this month).

Bali I miss you


Recently I have been in Bali, Indonesia taking the third stage of my yoga teacher training education.
Since last May, I have been undergoing an incredible journey that as allowed me to really understand subconscious issues of my emotional and physical body.
I have to say that I have changed to an extent that I am not yet able to measure, and constantly I am propelled with a curious drive to find ways that make me feel better and inspire others.
This blog is about this journey: the one that I feel I need to share with you :) Welcome!
