If everybody who cares stopped eating animal foods…
… we would eventually only be left with industries determining what we get to eat. If everybody who is conscious and cares about animal welfare, sustainability and the planet stopped eating animal foods, we would eventually be left with degeneration only. Yes, even if we buy all our plant foods organic and try to avoid […]
Responding from fear or from trust
There are things we control and others we don’t. As much as we take responsibility to create the favorable circumstances for health and harmony to occur, the body will get sick and we will live difficult situations at some point in life. This is simply part of life and the path of the soul. We […]
Fertile Mindset
Your body is your best friend, not your enemy. Instead of fighting with it and its symptoms, be it in a conventional or natural way, listen, embrace, attend and take care! From my point of view, the body is never the “enemy.” Everything it does or does not do, the symptoms it has, whether it’s […]
Softening the need to be right
We are so polarized these days, whether it’s about food and eating, relationships and sex, gender and equality, religion and spirituality, politics and war…. Who has not found themselves in situations where someone is very opinionated about a specific topic, maybe even backing up there perspective through “science”, in order to give their arguments more […]
Being Omnivore – to what extent can we trust the design of Nature?
It is a biological fact that the human being is omnivorous and needs to feed on both, foods of plant origin and foods of animal origin to enjoy optimal long-term health and fertility. That is how the universe has designed us – like or not. To what extent are we able to trust nature, to […]

Can everybody fast or will everybody feel more clarity and tranquility when eating little? As always, there is no one-size-fits-all. It is very easy to fall into the trap of projecting our […]
Pure Science
Recently, in a ritual of prayers for the world, I was assigned to pray for pure science. My first internal reaction was “Oh nooo, I don’t believe in science.” The same thing happens when people describe me as “scientific” in my way of being and working. It is not a description that I usually like […]
Celebrating Life & Celebrating Death
Birthdays… a special opportunity to remember and celebrate the gift that Life is. When we are born into this world, we do not know how long our Life will last or what kind of challenges and pain awaits us. And still I personally feel extremely grateful for this gift that was channeled through my parents […]
When “Positive Thinking” becomes denial
You probably heard about the power of the mind and that the quality of your thoughts determines your reality. Maybe you are even practicing “positive thinking”. However, there are many “mistakes” people make in this realm that can do more harm than good. A major one is trying to deny thinking about anything “negative” out […]
Making your own olive oil
Where I live there are about 100 “productive” olive trees. In 2021, we decided to go through the experience of producing our own olive oil from them and I want to share the process and my key learnings with you, because there are many things that I personally did not know and that I believe […]
