Embrace Your Shadows. Remember who You are. Guidance for soulful seekers for authentic inner growth

In this episode I speak about Shadow Work and how it can help us to uncover deeply rooted conditionings and stories that keep repeating themselves in our lives though we have done a lot of inner work. We dive into the dynamics of shadow work and how it is actually a work that brings us closer to the light, beyond spiritual bypassing.

We are going deeper into what the new Paradigm is and qualities a leader of the New Paradigm has. This session speaks about a different way of thinking and acting and of something we need more than ever in this time of change and unpredictability.

Why is it so important to understand our passion and purpose and how can we understand it better? In this episode I share some of the deeper understandings I gained about my own passion and purpose and what elements are crucial to find an answer that is authentic to everyone of us.

Many of us feel activated, triggered or stressed out right now. After two years of struggles, we finally want things to calm down but instead things intensify. In this episode we speak about how the situation activates our survival mode and how to get out of it

Es gibt so viele Dinge, die momentan auf der Welt passieren, die uns hilflos, traurig und ängstlich fühlen oder komplett dicht machen lassen, weil es es nicht mehr hören können. All diese Reaktionen in Bezug auf Schmerz und Leid anderer führen dazu, dass wir uns noch mehr zurückziehen. Aber was wenn es eine andere Art gibt, darauf zu reagieren? Was wenn wir all diese Emotionen erlauben könnten und uns danach sogar noch liebender und bestärkter fühlen würden? In dieser Episode schauen wir uns unsere Reaktion auf den Schmerz anderer an und wie diese in Zusammenhang mit unserer persönlichen Lebensgeschichte steht und wie wir Mitleid zu wahrem Mitgefühl, Liebe und Offenheit transformieren.  Im ersten Teil erkläre ich ein bisschen dazu, wie wir auf das Leid anderer reagieren und was diese Reaktion wandeln kann. Im zweiten Teil machen wir zusammen eine geführte Meditation, um es in die Praxis zu bringen und unsere Reaktion umzutrainieren, so dass sie zu einer bewussteren Wahl wird.

There are so many things happening in this world right now that make us feel helpless, sad, anxious or completely shut down because we just can't hear it anymore. All those reactions to the pain and suffering of others make us contract even more, make us shut down even more. But what if there was a different way to react, what if we could allow all those emotions and even feel more loving and empowered after that. In this episode we explore how our reaction to pain of others relates to our personal life story and how we can transform it from empathetic distress to compassion, love and openness. In the first part I will explain a bit about the how we deal with the suffering of others and what can change that reaction. In the second part we will go into a guided meditation to bring it into practice and retrain our reaction to a more conscious choice.

We urgently need you and I know you are out there questioning if what you feel is right - I say, "yes" it is and we are waiting for you - you are not alone.

In this episode we explore the question what lies behind feeling empty, anxious tired, exhausted or even bored after a work day.

There is a new paradigm - in this episode we are speaking about the new paradigm that lies ahead of us as individuals and as society. There are a few steps that help us to use the challenges of this time and head towards a different paradigm.

We all face loneliness at times but these days it's even more intense. Bring in social distancing has isolated us more than ever. In this episode I am sharing a bit about my own feeling of loneliness in the hope that it might resonate and to to say - you are not alone...

It is not surprising that we live in a time when things are shifting in unpredictable ways. Keeping integrity to ourselves and how we want act and show up beomces more demanding then ever.

In times that become more and more unpredictable, in times when things change and we have this huge amount of possilities and social issues to fix it is hard to stay focused to what is true to us. Self-leadership is one of the most important skills we can develop in order to stay in line with what is deeply meaningful for us. This episode looks deeper into what self-leadership means and what it has to do with leading others. It dives into how we can deal with all circumstances that challenge us and stay inspired and committed to the resolutions that we make. Self-leadership is not controlling it is a way of deeply allowing what wants to be seen and at the same time living with intention.

What can we do when we feel pain about what happens in the world? What breaks your heart? What if instead of not wanting to feel all of this we start to feel it all, go into this pain and notice that there are things for us as individuals as couples, as organizations & as society that are just not okay, things that cry out because they want to be healed and looked at. This episode adresses equality, diversity, how we can deal with the pain of injustice and how we can deal with these things as individuals? What does our own pain have to do with the pain we feel from this world? How would a vision of a world look like where we would shift towards a different way of being together?

I am so astonished about all the findings now-a-days that suggest that Mental health is so much more connected with our physical health than we think. On my journey to figuring this out for myself, I have discovered that seemingly physical symptoms like unexplained aces or feeling tired have a lot to do with our mental state and also a direct connection to our gut. Some think that mental health just affects a few but what if we all have mental health problems in our lives as well as we have physical health issues?

We all know this situation when we feel that we experience the same situation in a relationship that we have experienced multiple times already. These situations even if they are sometimes difficult give us an opportunity to grow into a more authentic version of our selves. Relationships are the biggest challenge but that's why if we can transform their pain this will lead us to a growth and deep love that is beyond anything we ever experienced before.

When it comes to dealing with our emotions some feel more difficult than others. When we work with our emotions there are different layers to understanding them, to hold them, to understand what they want to tell us and also to transform them. In this episode, we will go deeper into the understanding of what we can do with "difficult emotions". * I am sharing learnings and an exercise to start the quest to integrate all kinds of emotions and to understand the value and information every emotion brings. I also address how the capability to be with our own difficult emotions is the foundation to compassion towards others in pain and ultimately to be our authentic self.

When the times are getting crazy it is hard to lead ourselves but Corona was not the first thing to make our times crazy - we were already in it for a long time. And because of that we need to keep running instead of pausing and taking back our power or connecting deeper to what is actually meaningful for us. In this episode I will talk about how to deal with anxiety, fear, stress and all those external things and how to lead ourselves in a way that brings us back to who we are and how we want to show up in life even in difficult times - reclaiming our power.

In this episode, I discuss the themes of overwhelm and numbness, exploring how these feelings can disconnect us from our true selves. We speak about the survival mechanism that leads to emotional numbness and avoidance.

This is a call to awaken our inner self and embrace authenticity amidst a collective state of numbness.
