Be kind
Due to recent events I’d once again like to shed some light on a very important topic, that topic being mental health. I don’t want to make this about myself, this story isn’t just my story, it counts for many. For many it’s still a taboo, which causes only more suffering. This is why It’s my intention to continue the conversation regarding mental health….
3 things that inspire me
One thing most if not all of us have in common is that we’re constantly looking to get inspired. Inspiration isn’t something that can be forced, it has to flow from within. This is why, just like the seasons, I go through moments of drought. Moments where just like the flowers at the end of their time, inspiration comes to die, an endless cycle of resurrection. Knowing this has brought me comfort during the times where I felt empty, uninspired and grey, trusting that with enough water, sun and love the seeds of live would bring forth new growth, resulting in beautiful concepts, creations and manifestations.
For a moment in life I worried I had completely lost all inspiration. …

Not Flexible Enough For Yoga?
When it comes to yoga people often consider themselves “not flexible enough” to even start a practice. This post serves as a response to this common misbelieve, and hopefully brings a different perspective to anyone interested in yoga but feels intimidated because of their lack of flexibility.
To respond I would like to say that yoga is about more than just the postures (asana) and that although it’s great that you gain some flexibility, there are many other things to be gained through yoga, such as…

Indigo Bowl #4 – Veggie Udon Noodle Bowl
When it comes to comfort foods noodles are one of my favourites, no matter in what form or shape them come. A noodles soup, salad or stir fry, I love them all!

You can find the recipe for the tofu by pressing this link.…
Tofu Stew
Throughout the years tofu went from one of my least favourite foods to one of my favourites! Growing up my father did his best to raise us on a macrobiotic diet, but I wasn’t feeling it, nope this boy didn’t want boring tofu. This I hear often as my lifestyle took a drastic turn and now I’m sure my body is about 30% tofu. Just kidding folks, I eat a wide variety of foods!
Look the soy debate is an ongoing one, but I personally…

Through this post I’d like to share this article, my own experience and to keep reminding myself to be unattached in love.
Being unattached in love doesn’t mean you can’t love someone fully, it simple means you love them without expectations or limitations. …
