Sometimes I get to remember what I already have and how whole I already am. It's easy to look at pretty pictures and shiny new items and to think that we may need any of that to feel complete. It's easy to feel desire. But all these things are just…
The dance of spirituality and sustainability
While I keep circling back to women's work, my main interest is in sustainability. As I wrote last week, I am deliberately taking some space from my interest in spirituality. Today I share why I got so deep into spirituality in the first place and how it relates to sustainability.…
My resistance to spirituality and why you should be wary too
After a deep dive into spirituality, I have developed quite a resistance against it, which I find really interesting. Spirituality is about finding your way to be connected to 'spirit', to be present in the moment, and to be content in this life. And it’s hard to argue against that.…
How I love my anger
Do you remember the first time you were angry? I don't. I do remember that my anger wasn't tolerated. As if every sign of anger had to be neutralized, just as the other more difficult emotions. I remember one time I was angry and slammed the door of my room.…
An update on radical honesty

Beware of what your bubble reflects back to you
You live in a bubble and you always have, like the rest of us. You have probably contemplated this before and it seems to not be a big deal. You like your peepz and your social bubble feels like a safe space to hang out. Well, it is, but beware!…
On the community of kundalini yoga
In the beginning of the horrendous year 2020 I started teaching a weekly kundalini yoga class. A few months later I radically quit. What happened? I may call myself naive, but it was not without a backstory. I completed the kundalini yoga teacher training the year before and wanted to…
My spiritual background
It's time for me to write something about my spiritual background! In the last few years I have learnt a lot and I have come to feel more secure about talking and writing about the theme of spirituality or consciousness. Also, recently I promoted my blog a little more and a…
