Some people only see you in the role that is safe for them. Not as a human being.

Even if you can’t return to the place you once called happiness, you can still walk toward a new beginning - where your heart remembers how to beat again

“The landscape affects the human psyche - the soul, the body and the innermost contemplations - like music. Every time you feel nature deeper you resonate better with her, finding new elements of balance and freedom.”

„Breathing in, I‘m aware of the painful feeling in me. Breathing out, I‘m aware of the painful feeling in me.“ This is an art. We have to learn it, because most of us don’t like to be with our pain. We’re afraid of being overwhelmed by the pain, so we always seek to run away from it (1/2)

Some people who survived hell carry buckets of water for those who are still consumed by the fire - not always enough to end the flames, but enough to soothe the pain, to remind you you’re not alone. They sit beside you, through the heat and the hurt, not to erase the fire, but to face it with you.

You don’t need to break the silence or set fire to the past to be free. You can simply step back - from what no longer fits. Quiet, like the mist lifting. Soft, like moss beneath bare feet. True, like breath when you let yourself feel. Change can be silent. It can be dignified.

To carry softness in a sharp world is not a flaw. It‘s a quiet kind of rebellion. A sacred act of staying human. And some hearts are built of longing - not because they are empty, but because they still believe in something more. Even in silence, they keep singing.

Don’t compare the steps you take to somebody else‘s. A success is a success and rest is a step, too.

- while facing your own insecurities
- while practicing what you preach

Shifting our attention to who we are today instead of focusing on what we *should* be, what we *should* have been already - we might find a supportive and patient friend. Or at least we might listen a little less to those who make us feel like we’re not doing enough already #patience #development

A pearl from a client today.
"I only remember the feeling my parents gave me - not what they said."
So what if we stopped talking,
And started thinking about
the feeling we want our kids to carry for life?

People often get irritated when your biography deviates from the straight line, the norm, the „this is how it’s supposed to go“. When it happens, I like to take a deep breath, greet the insecurities this might evoke in me like an old friend and think about this (see comment)(1/3)

"There are many people who have enormous suffering, and don’t know how to handle it. For many people, it starts already at a very young age. So, why don’t schools teach our young people the way to manage suffering? If a student is very unhappy, they can‘t concentrate and they can’t learn. (1/2)

„When we are free [from thinking, anxiety, fear, and striving], we can answer the call of the Earth. „I‘m here. I‘m a child of yours.“ We recognize that we are part of the wonder. And we can say, "I‘m free: free from everything that is preventing me from being fully alive." - Thich Nhat Hanh

I started an important journey with this book. It helped me rediscover self-compassion and reconnect with nature - something I deeply value but often lose in the demands of daily life. It also brings clarity to my vision as a therapist: guiding patients in nature, where healing feels most natural.

If I truly want to understand another human being, I don’t get in the way.
I free up time. I free up space—physically and mentally. I don’t fill the silence. I don’t rush to interpret. I don’t impose my expectations.
I am unconditionally present—with myself and the other person.

Embracing your true self is like watching a masterpiece unfold: messy, intense, and exquisitely beautiful. In every vulnerable moment lies the power to shine, turning pain into the purest form of art. This authenticity is not just yours to keep - it’s a light that helps others find their way home.

„This is the attitude of bodhisattvas: to practice meditation not only for yourself, but for the world, to relieve the suffering.
And, when others suffer less, you suffer less.
When you suffer less, they suffer less. That is interbeing. There is no separation between yourself and others.(…)“
