We are not getting younger. That’s simply reality. And yet sometimes it feels as if we are all quietly competing with a former version of ourselves. As if the goal is to look like we did at twenty-eight instead of becoming more powerful at thirty-eight. The last time I was in Paris, something caught my eye. In a very cool, very hip restaurant, the hostess wasn’t twenty-three. She was older. Impeccably dressed, calm, completely at ease. She wasn’t performing youth or trying to

Last year in Ibiza I did a horse coaching session with Guardian Horses . I had no big expectations. I think I just felt curious. It turned out to be one of the most intense experiences I have ever had. There was one horse I immediately felt drawn to. I cannot explain it better than that. She just felt calm, beautiful and solid. At some point during the session I noticed that every time I stepped into the shadow, the horse gently pushed me forward into the sun. Not aggressivel

I didn’t plan on writing about this book. I had tried to read it before and never really made it through. It felt heavy, layered, something I didn’t quite have the space for at the time. Looking back, that already said enough. When I picked it up again recently, I didn’t start with the intention to finish it. I opened it somewhere in the middle, in a chapter about creativity, and came across a passage that stopped me. Not because it was beautifully written, but because it fel

I’ve never really understood the rush of January, the sudden urgency around New Year’s resolutions, the idea of a “new me” and the pressure to plan, reinvent and optimise the year ahead. Every year we are told to set new goals and habits at exactly the moment when winter seems to ask for something entirely different. Not for beginnings, but for endings. For rest. For me, winter has always been a time to slow down, to reflect and to turn inward. Nature does the same. Animals

Last summer, I spent some time at  Chiva-Som , a wellness retreat in Thailand that approaches health in a very intentional, holistic way. It’s not a place of extremes or rigid rules, but one where everything is designed to slow you down. It’s all about a gentle rhythm: movement, rest, nourishment, and reflection that brings you back to the human basics. From the moment you arrive, you’re invited to be more present. Meals are thoughtfully prepared, treatments are personalised,

I have been back from the Cotswolds for a few weeks now, but it is still one of those places that keeps coming back to me. You know how some destinations are beautiful, but others actually change your pace, your mood, your nervous system almost. This was very much the second. Everything felt softer there. Greener. Slower. One of the first places that really stayed with me was Bibury. Yes, it is photographed endlessly and yes, Arlington Row really is that pretty, but if you g

It still feels surreal to write these words. I finally visited the Bach Centre ! Hidden in the quiet English countryside, this little house in Mount Vernon is where Dr. Edward Bach once lived and created his flower remedies. Visiting in the fall meant there were no blossoms in the garden, yet the place still felt alive with quiet beauty. The trees were turning golden, and there was a soft stillness in the air, as if the garden was resting. The whole place felt calm and pure.

There’s something quietly luxurious about taking time to pause. A few weeks ago, I spent an afternoon at  The Botanic Sanctuary  for high tea: three unhurried hours surrounded by calm, soft light, and the scent of freshly baked pastries. What struck me most, though, was how  modern  the whole concept feels again. More and more, I notice younger people turning to experiences like this … slower, more intentional moments that offer a real sense of connection. High tea feels like

What I learned from my Human Design reading with Virginia van Dijk Human Design is a modern system for self-understanding, a language that weaves science and spirituality. It combines astrology, the I Ching, the Kabbalah, and quantum physics to create an energetic blueprint that reveals how your energy flows and how you are meant to move through the world. Your chart is created using your date, time, and place of birth. From that information, a unique map unfolds, showing you

October always feels like the month to slow down. A time for rituals, soft textures, and long moments that feel like little hugs. Between cozy weekends at home and the first real chill in the air, I’ve found myself reaching for small things that make me feel more grounded, more present, and a little more  me . Here’s what I’ve been loving lately. 1. Adding more natural products to my daily beauty care routine This month, I’ve been simplifying and replacing products with more

I’ve always been drawn to beautiful things, and maybe that’s why crystals caught my eye at first. At the beginning they were just pretty stones to me, but over time they’ve become little reminders I carry with me. They anchor me when life feels busy or overwhelming, and they help me pause for a moment. I believe that to feel happy in body, mind and spirit, we need to find a sense of inner harmony. For me, spirituality isn’t about strict rules or complicated rituals. It’s more

During my trip to Normandy, I spent an afternoon at  Jardins d’Etretat ( and I even came back the next day) , a contemporary garden set...

It feels a little emotional to be writing here again.   For a long time, I didn’t know if I’d return to blogging. So much has changed ......
