{A Gentle Heart Healing Practice} Have you ever felt that pieces of your heart are stuck somewhere else or with someone you’ve parted ways with? Then this gentle practice could be helpful for you. I developed it last fall as I was traveling and it has helped me a lot. Go to a physical place where you have very dear memories you hold on to maybe a bit too much, or to a place where your heart was broken. Make sure you are safe to close your eyes for a bit. Gently close your eyes and focus on your heart center. Now, quietly say to yourself - ”I hereby recall any pieces and traces of my heart here still lingering” and envision emerald green and golden light bringing all these little pieces and traces back to your heart center, gently mending your heart. Now say “I let go of anything and everything that no longer serves me. I am now whole. And so it is. Blessed be.”. Thank yourself lovingly and open your eyes. Let me know how you like this practice and if you’d like me to record it for @insighttimer This practice can be repeated many times and is intended as part of your self care routine and meditation practice. For deep traumas please seek professional help. #meditationpractice #hearthealing #healingmeditation #aconsciousspace #selflove #selfcare #gentlesoul #healing #love https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv1MR3Kh8fB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z1gzgu377qt9

{Sacred Self-care} The past week has been absolutely glorious and so much has shifted for me that I’ve taken a small break from posting here - I simply didn’t know where to start. I’ll tell you more soon about what I’ve been up to, in the meantime I’d like to share this beautiful little morning routine with you. As we’re in the middle of a cold winter and my skin has felt so dry from the shift in temperatures and humidity, I decided to whip up a little face mask/gentle scrub this morning. I ground oats and some rose petals together, added a bit of honey and some organic oat milk, smeared it on my clean face and let it dry before I removed it with a sponge. Afterwards I gently massaged in some drops of my own blend of jojoba frankincense facial oil and finished off with this gorgeous rose quartz #faceroller from @by_achilles that I love so much. Then I enjoyed some homemade French toast with fresh fruit and grated coconut. Now I feel deeply rejuvenated, cared for and ready to take on the rest of the week!

{Fritillaria Meleagris, Sounds Baths & Synchronicity} Fritillaria, also known as chess flower, has found its way to my bed side table. This gorgeous checkered lily is the province flower of Uppland, Sweden, where I was born and it’s also one of my favorite spring flowers. In Swedish it’s named Kungsängslilja which means Lily of King’s Meadows. Its symbolism varies but my favorite interpretation is that of rebirth, letting go and transformation. Interestingly enough “letting go” has been my theme for this week. I simply bought the flower last night because I love it but wasn’t surprised when I researched its meaning! Once you open up to synchronicity it’s always there and you realize that you always choose what you truly need. I set “letting go” as my intention during a wonderful gong bath last Sunday and in the past 4 days I’ve been to no less than 3! First with gongs and Tibetan singing bowls, then a private session with bowls and gongs surrounding me and last night with opera arias performed live by five soloists. What a magical week of letting go through sound healing and what amazing flow and synchronicity. What flower would you intuitively choose today? You might be amazed by its meaning. #fritillaria #fritillariameleagris #chessflower #aconsciousspace #mybedroom #bedroominteriors #sacredspace #inspiration #synchronicity #flowerportrait #flowersymbolism #lettinggo https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu-7XkFBcjX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fhlq9kywutpb

{Small Changes Big Impact} After some gloriously sunny days the sun is replaced by snow and thick grey skies. But the illusive spring is not too far away. Before the sun disappeared I took these photos of my bedroom literally swimming in sunlight and I was reminded of how small changes can make a big impact. Since moving my bed and redecorating my tiny bedroom it has become my favorite space - my sacred space! Not only have I invited new energy into this room and into my life but I can also fall asleep under the light of the full moon and wake up to the sun. And I now have more space to share my bed with someone special as you can access the bed from two sides. The latter is a Feng Shui move I decided to try and the initial consequence is that I like my bedroom a whole lot more, it feels more inviting, more sensual and more harmonious. Along with carefully selected details, each with a symbolic meaning, my bedroom is now the room I really want to start my days in. I meditate and write here, eat my breakfast here on lazy mornings and dream of the ocean and future projects and trips. And I’m reminded of the importance of our footprints on this planet and how small positive changes in our lifestyles can make a big positive impact by time. As with our spiritual practices and health routines - it all starts with one small step. What little changes can you make today and this week that will have a big impact on your wellbeing? Ps. The single hellebores in the recycled glass bottle on my bed side bench from @artek was saved from a container - it was just lying there on top, alive and blossoming, and now it’s thriving in the sunlight of my bedroom #aconsciousspace #interiors #designforwellbeing #inspiration #holistichome #sweetdreams #simplicity https://www.instagram.com/p/BulJk27hKMJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e8nnf41qnacf

{My favorite reads in 2018} THE POWER OF NOW by @eckharttolle - changed my life and is one of the most powerful books I have ever read. I don’t think I’ve ever underlined as many paragraphs before or after. THE GIFTS OF IMPERFECTION by @brenebrown - witty, smart, personal and very useful. A must read for those who love science and spirituality combined or need one to believe in the other. JUDGEMENT DETOX by @gabbybernstein - I’m currently reading this one and love it since the first page. Somehow I procrastinated reading it for a long time but it came to me with divine timing, as always. What are you currently reading or listening to? Let me know below!

{Reuse & Reduce Part 1} I love my organic morning coffee, I really do. Each day I enjoy it with a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom and maybe some plant milk. But what to do with all the coffee grounds? Yes one can fertilize ones plants but there are also oils in the coffee beans that are beneficial to your skin and the grounds are gently exfoliating so I decided to make use of that. Some recipes suggest using sugar but as I don’t have sugar at home I added hemp oil for some extra skin love and a couple of drops of patchouli essential oil for the senses. I love the scent and it makes my skin super smooth and lightly scented. If you have sensitive skin always try on a small patch first and don’t use the blend on your face as it’s a bit too rough.
