Doing a lot, constantly carrying out and absorbing matter takes us further away from ourselves and from hearing our own thoughts better. We aim for everything more because we seek constant pleasure and we think meaning can be found outside of ourselves. We cling so strongly to the old, to control and security structures, because change scares us. Simplifying life brings more space, peace and thus the opportunity to find our true self.
“In a world where everyone constantly wants more and where all empty time and space is filled with noise or stuff, a radical act is to be completely quiet, settle for a little less and notice that you already have everything inside you.”
Many may think that doing less or simplifying life is not possible for everyone. Simplifying doesn’t mean lying in a hammock in the Maldives. It can mean retraining, changing career paths, giving up material, reducing useless things, limiting work or some pleasures, or examining one’s own goals, values or needs. Think about whether the things I am pursuing are necessary and in which direction they will drive me. What is necessary, how do I want to spend my time and what I need for a good life. Often they are simple things.
Coaching
Coaching is not always only sport or exercise related. Sometimes we struggle in some parts of our lives which reflect something important from our inner world. In coaching we start to go through these different layers to find out what parts needs some attention. Don’t hesitate to contact me, if you have any questions!
