Resistance may explain the circular pattern you can’t seem to break #happiness
Do you sometimes feel like you are stubbornly repeating the same pattern in your life, eg jumping between jobs, people, places, where each scenario ends similarly to the previous one, and you understand that this is not working out, that you … Continue reading

Where do I belong? #happiness
The team I am in at the moment is not the friendliest bunch, at least to the newcomers. Everyone is polite of course but there is not much caring or bonding going on. Everyone to their own means. We went … Continue reading
Embracing uncertainty #happiness
I finally embraced uncertainty. I used to be a control freak losing temper if things were not going my way. Still am, long road ahead but I see first promising signs of progress. I stopped trying to predict (obsessively think … Continue reading

Surrender… to progress #happiness
I surrender. I am not moving from where I live (blossom where planted, right). I am not going to find yet another job that will no doubt be so much better, and will rather make the one I already have … Continue reading

Love crushes, obsessions, poetry… How to start reframing a love crush (Part 2)
In my recent intense, somewhat all over the place post Love crushes, obsessions, poetry… Love addiction and what pain-body has to do with it (Part 1) I promised Part 2. Here we go.
Who are you? #happiness #universe
When I was younger, I remember writing an essay at school, and later – uni, on who I thought I was. I tried to define myself through descriptive nouns and adjectives of all sorts – daughter, sister, good student, human … Continue reading
Are you your harshest critic? #happiness
This week let’s take a step back from the fascinating subject of love crushes (see the previous week’s post here, if you missed it), and look at our internal language. How do you talk with yourself? Are you being … Continue reading
Love crushes, obsessions, poetry… Love addiction and what pain-body has to do with it (Part 1)
Romantic love is an unachievable fantasy — Dalai Lama Love. What a tricky, elusive, individual thing. We all know what it should or might be, we never really know if it is what we’ve got. When I was young, … Continue reading
How to find my life’s purpose? #happiness
My thinking on the subject progressed from reading Viktor Frankl’s book and desperately trying to find that elusive ‘life goal’, from being jealous of geniuses and people who knew their passion, who knew what they wanted to do with their … Continue reading
Are you happy, right now, right here? Spring only happens once
I have been quiet for a bit. I had a very Mad Men’esque exit from my agency job, so that took some time and energy. The good news is I am very happy, I am at home, and not starting a … Continue reading

This, too, shall pass #happiness
I’ve been on a holiday. I was really looking forward to just watching the ocean waves. Ocean. Meditative. Strong. Bigger than me. Perspective giving. Forever listening. Quiet, the mind. Connect me to the universe. Accept me, lost and confused. All … Continue reading

Seasonal Affective Disorder and how to overcome it #happiness
Life seems so hard in February. It’s freezing outside, mostly grey and windy. You need several layers before you can leave the house. I’ve got this crazy winter flu and everyone in my family too, so it’s like Walking Dead in this … Continue reading

Morning yoga- 10 poses for lazy days
January. Time when we start afresh. Resolutions and all. Many of us- myself included- vow to get back in shape. Not easy. Being one of the laziest people ever when it comes to exercise, any sort of exercise that contains … Continue reading
