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 […]
The masks you did not even know you were wearing
Per definition, the unconscious is not conscious to us. Something that is not conscious is something that is not visible. It is our shadow and can only be revealed to us through the mirror of other people or circumstances. It’s usually what triggers us in others, but does not seem to resonate with us at […]
Why I do not recommend raw food diets
Besides providing nutrients, all foods also have a thermic effect on the body. They can be warming, neutral, or cooling. Knowing the thermal properties of a food allows you to adapt your food choices to the season, and can help you correct imbalances in your own individual metabolism. Raw food or food taken directly from […]
Who is your support team?
Making a change in your diet or lifestyle is a personal decision, but it definitely gets easier if you feel supported by your surroundings, especially by the people close to you. On the other hand, being surrounded by people who constantly put obstacles in your way might make it very hard or even impossible for you to reach […]
Are we really able to manifest our desires?
A lot has been said about “the power of manifestation” and how you can create your own reality just through your thoughts and imagination. The idea is that whatever you believe subconsciously will be attracted into your life and cannot help but manifest in the outer world. Many books have been written to teach people […]
Stop trashing your body
So many people are in pain, yet when I (or someone else) suggest(s) to them to clean up their diet from junk food and processed convenience foods in general, or from particular foods that seem to be hurting them (i.e. gluten containing bread and baked goods, dairy, coffee, alcohol, certain spices, too much fruit…), their […]
Reclaiming your Cycle: Why to get off hormonal birth control asap
If you want to give your hormones any chance to rebalance, you have to avoid the pill or any other hormonal contraception. If you are actively trying to conceive, you probably are off any contraception already, but if not, let me explain you why I make this statement. While we cannot deny the role the […]
