A blog about the magical powers of magic mushrooms to heal yourself from physical, mental and emotional trauma. These mushrooms aren’t the mushrooms you use for cooking (I wouldn’t recommend adding them in your Monday night risotto, haha). They’re also not ‘drugs’. These are the mushrooms that taste really terrible, but they do super cool stuff with your brain and subconscious mind!

Early January I got tested positive for Covid-19. I wasn’t worried at all. I was healthy, I felt strong and thought my immune system would be able to deal with it quite easily. And that all seemed to be the case the first few weeks. But 3 months later, I am still suffering from all kinds of Long Covid symptoms, unable to work and live life the normal way. The physical and mental effects are real and difficult to deal with. Read my story, and let me share the lessons that I am learning in this process of healing from an unknown, unpredictable virus.

Were we really ready to work from home? Yesterday I ran a workshop for one of my corporate clients about how to stay healthy and happy when working from home during (and after) this pandemic. It was amazing to have a discussion about a topic so on top of people's minds at the moment and which has suddenly become the 'standard'.

Recently, I had a lovely conversation with an old friend from Singapore who’s in a struggle whether to keep working in the corporate world or step out of it and find her passion.

Have you been in that situation where you feel like you’re doing all the right things: eating healthy, exercising, not toooo much coffee and alcohol (but ok, a little…), but still you feel crap? You can sense that something is off, but you can’t figure out what. Well, I learned last week during my Yin Yoga Teacher Training that looking into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and how the different elements and seasons impact us, may give you the answer you were looking for!

It starts with a few dried dates (healthy snack, right?), then it moves to cheese and crackers, and before you know it that whole chocolate bar and bag of crisps are down as well. Sounds familiar anyone? To be honest, I haven’t met a lot of people in my life who have NEVER had a day like this. If you haven’t please call me because I (and probably everyone else reading this article) needs your help 😉 How is it so that many of us so easily and regularly overeat and can’t stop eating once we’re in a bad eating “flow”? I guess the good news is, it has got nothing to do with real hunger. Read on to learn what it IS about…

Have you ever restricted yourself with food in any way? Ever been on a diet? Whether you wanted to loose weight, gain muscle, have more energy or anything else…I bet you don’t look back on those dieting days as the best days of your life?! Whatever it was that motivated you to go on a diet, did you ever reach it? And even if you did, did it make you happy? Could you keep it up? Were you ever “done”? Read the whole article about why I don’t believe in diets and my view on living a healthy and balanced lifestyle.

You’ve probably heard about our good old Greek friend Hippocrates who stated thousands of years ago “let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food”. The idea that food can heal is definitely not something from this modern age with all its vegan, raw and other trends, and has actually been around for centuries.

Are you that person that runs around all day from the moment your alarm goes off? You’re a super ambitious professional, and your job is very important to you. But you also know that you perform better in your job if you eat healthy, sleep enough and exercise regularly. But you and your busy life don’t really have time in the schedule to cook every day, right? Guess what, you don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen to prepare healthy meals for you and your family.

For some of us, exercising comes naturally and is a daily must-do. But for many more of us, the word ‘exercising” makes us cringe and is just another thing on our to-do list. So you need to figure out what type of exercise fits you best and makes you actually want to go and do it. Answer the questions in this blog post for yourself to figure out what works best for you!
