Women, it’s time to evolve beyond Feminism!
There was a time, not too long ago, in our developed world, when a woman wasn’t allowed to do many things that were normal for a man. She wasn’t allowed to study, to work (apart from in the house), to have an opinion, to vote, to run a marathon or to wear trousers for example. […]
Eating Animal Foods can be regenerative – Part 1: Human Health, Fertility & Nutrition
Introduction It seems that if you want to be a “good” and “enlightened” consumer these days, you have to “go vegan”. While I can understand the ethical, environmental and nutritional motivations fueling this trend, the whole notion that veganism is the most ethical, sustainable and healthiest way to eat is dangerously one-sided and misleading. Things […]
Food, Body & Life are your best friends, not your enemies
One of the most important mindset shifts you can make in order to develop a healthy and fertile relationship not only with Life, but also with your body and even with food (that then will translate into a healthy and fertile body according to the “as above-so below” principle) is to replace “enemy” with “friend” […]
The importance of the gut for health & fertility
If we consider that 70-80% of our immune system lies in the gut, it is crucial to talk about gut health as THE important factor to improve our overall health, well-being – and also fertility – all year long. Simplified, there are two main and interdependent aspects to gut health: gut flora and gut permeability. Gut flora Our gut […]
Food, Body and the Feminine
From a mere energetic point of view, food is Feminine. Food comes from MOTHER Earth and is solid matter and as such more Feminine than airy thoughts and consciousness. Soft fat is energetically also more Feminine than hard muscles. The allocation into Feminine or Masculine is not an evaluation. One is not better than the […]
Common Sense Nutrition Part 1
Nutrition is very simple. I know there are many people who tell you differently, because they are earning money with that and the more complicated it sounds, the more money they can make. However, if it was truly that difficult or complex that we’d have to consult experts before putting anything in our mouth, I […]
Why I am not in favor of assisted fertility treatments
This is a delicate topic, yet one that has to be raised and that I feel about very strongly. Most of my colleagues in the field of holistic fertility would tell you that their recommendations will be beneficial for you also during fertility treatments. While I do agree that they will definitely help you to […]
What is Your Creation Pattern ?
As above, so below. As within, so without. What happens on one level has its equivalent on all other levels. When it comes to fertility, this means that the way we create babies is likely to be equal or very similar to the way we create projects and vice versa. Looking deeply at what’s happening […]
From meal planning to tantric cooking
I have shifted. The process that started a couple of years ago is embodied now. How do I know? Because my way of doing food has changed again. It struck me this week after another efficiency cooking session unfolded very differently than it used to. My cooking first evolved from “Masculine” to “Feminine” meal planning […]
What is regenerative / fertile food?
Switching from edible food products to natural and only gently processed foods is a necessary first step, but it cannot stop there, at least not if your goal is optimal health and fertility. If you want your food to optimally support your health and fertility, it needs to be grown in or raised on healthy […]
Breast Cancer Awareness is not Prevention
As every year in October, we see the pink ribbons all over. People run or march to support breast cancer awareness and research, thinking that this equals prevention. Yet in the very best of cases this helps to diagnose the condition and to start treatment earlier. It has nothing to do with prevention. PREvention means […]
Do you have to pee at night?
I don’t know about you, but I often wake up during the night to go to the toilet to pee (usually once). And then, this week, I did not. The first morning I wondered if I had truly not gone, because I had even drunk a herbal tea just before bed time, which usually is a […]
About feeling safe and your first chakra
This Friday the 13th full moon has been illuminating a deep fear for me. The fear of not being safe. The fear of being violated. The fear of the unconscious Masculine. On Thursday I shared a randomly selected picture from the past and its story on my Facebook page. It’s been a moment in my […]
You can never run from yourself
Sometimes it feels like we just have to move places, to leave it all behind, to start all over again for our lives to completely change. And it’s true, certain plants will just never thrive, if they are not planted in the right soil or if they are not exposed to the right amount of […]
Is coconut really good for you?
No, I am not looking for “nutritional facts” here. From that point of view I could give you a whole list of arguments why it is a superfood. In fact, it’s been one of my “holy cows” ever since I got trained in Real Food Nutrition and Metabolic Typing (2012). While I often put people […]
Addiction to Suffering
In order to be able to stop trashing your body without it feeling like a deprivation, it is a pre-requisite to drop your addiction to suffering. Oh yes, so many of us are ADDICTED to suffering, to being sick and tired in one way or the other, to feeling unloved and unworthy, or at least to […]
Ketogenic Diets – Top or Flop?
Ketogenic diets seem to be a trend again – in the last weeks several people told me they were on this high fat – moderate protein – very low carb diet. Interestingly enough those were all women with a preference for veganism/vegetarianism – diets that tend to be rather high in carbohydrates and low in […]
Between Authenticity and Nonviolent communication
I am currently exploring a whole new way to deal with my inner truth in relating to others. There is nothing I value as much as truth and authenticity. Authenticity for me means that what I believe, think and feel is aligned with what I do and say. This often clashes with the rules of […]
