Wild women are fully alive!
I began my yoga journey with the Ashtanga system. It's a very disciplined approach which totally worked for me during the first couple of years practice. I found peace in this. Without unwanted thoughts I was able to just focus, surrender and practice again and again. Then some wildness stirred within me; a rebellious firey … Continue reading Wild women are fully alive!
Talking body
The body tells the ongoing story of our life. We must pay attention and listen.

Sweetheart, you can do it!
During the last minutes of the 20th century in Latvia, I was standing under a Christmas tree, staring at the stars and falling snow! The 21st century then started with a magic waterfall of fireworks lighting up the sky. I repeated a mantra to myself and to the Universe, ”Darling, you can achieve anything you … Continue reading Sweetheart, you can do it!
When everything is perfect yet the Soul is crying!
I landed back home in Mallorca, gazing into the loving eyes of Christopher and enjoying my most favourite smile in the world meeting me in the bright sunshine. The smell of the sea air with all the heartfelt kisses and hugs made my head spin as if I was drinking champagne! My wings spread wide … Continue reading When everything is perfect yet the Soul is crying!
