Keep up!

Wow... February is pretty tough! Or how do you feel about it? I can observe in many people and in myself how we falter, don't really make any progress, stand still and our patience is really needed. We feel challenged because this supposed "boredom" brings out our emotions that we would otherwise prefer to avoid. We feel stressed because this "can't do anything" teases our mind into not doing anything. And we feel "dropped" because we are not in control of what is happening! But what really happens inside us – let's take a look at it together.

We're not used to boredom. We were raised to always be active, doing, creating, creating, achieving. Reading a book yourself avoids boredom because it is also an activity. So I invite you to just sit on the sofa or on your mat and do nothing for 30 minutes. Not to meditate, not to sing, not to whistle, NOTHING! can you do that 😉 What does that do to you? And if you have done this, write to me, feel free to share your experiences with me! I'm curious how you experience the "bore while", i.e. simply more time, more rest, more stillness, for yourself. So we feel that we haven't learned it and that inevitably leads to "doing nothing". Oh my God! What a terrible idea...

Doing nothing, nothing new, nothing exciting, nothing exciting, unfamiliar, just nothing?! How does that go with life. There's always something going on - there always has to be something going on. But is that so? Is nature like that? Does it work like that and do we swim to the rhythm of our mother? Or are we just moving against it. According to the motto: I actually want to slow down, that will definitely work out once I get faster. Or I want to be quieter and that will definitely work if I turn the music up loud or sing louder, then I don't hear the rest as much. Do you know that? Does it work? What prevents us from being able to dive into this nothingness? It seems as if we end up again in letting go, in devotion, in trust.

So often we were lied to, cheated, betrayed, ... . Aaaach, nothing so wild, maybe a voice inside you says now. Yes, really? Do you think that you liked it as a child when you were scolded and five minutes later you were the nice child again, five minutes later the bad guy again, etc. and so on. And it's not about judging our parents here. No, it's just that we recognize that something like this can be at the root of our beliefs, our thinking, our actions. If we can't surrender to life, it may be because we haven't learned to really trust. Where and how did it happen to you? I invite you to just leave the "oh not so wild" aside. It is a protective mechanism of your mind not to want to delve deeper into it. But if you want to be free, calm, balanced, healed... what options do you have? Don't you think it makes sense then to look there, embrace it and heal it?

It is our responsibility and choice to do so! And maybe we're stuck right now because we're just afraid to decide, to choose, to consciously move in a direction and you know what, just follow the heart! Boredom means constant heartbeat. Doing nothing is the rhythm of nature and "let yourself be moved". Dropping and trusting is the heart of God! What is in your life that is not moving? Why isn't it moving? What is your part in it? And how can you strengthen and promote the part that wants to move? What does this require? Can you allow yourself to be felt at a depth that has never existed before?

That's exactly why life is challenging us at the moment! It is precisely for this reason that it is "pushing" us in this direction! Step by step we can delve further into ourselves, get to know each other, discover ourselves, feel - everything that is there! To then recognize and heal it in love and perfection! Can you trust this healing? Can you believe in your wisdom that healing is possible? Can you believe there will come a day when you can say, "yeah, that feels good, a part of me is at peace"!? How does that feel?

Let's go there together, do it and stop making excuses! Let us have the courage to follow not fear but love! Let's pay respect to the life we live it! In honesty, openness, perfection and the realization of our own perfection that has always been there!

I am already looking forward to going on this journey of discovery with you and meeting you in the depths of life!

With all love,
