People have started to understand that simple and fast solutions do not help in building sustainable wellbeing. There is tons of information available from different health topics and many already have enough knowledge. The problem is that how to put everything into action and to see clearly, what exactly needs attention and what needs to […]
The common emotions I encounter in my coaching work are uncertainty, anxiety and stress. Stress caused by things happening quickly and there is simply too many things to handle. Life is reactive and people lose their focus and feel frustrated because of constant changes and redundancies. It seems that people feel stuck in a situation […]
A child’s feeling always communicates a need. Shame arises when our needs are not met in early interactions and we are not met with them. We ourselves internally turn our backs on our needs if we learn to think that they are not important. Shame maintains a false self-image: various beliefs and perceptions of one’s […]
I’ve been following the discussion around the weightloss drug Ozempic. One side condemns the use of the drug and accuses overweight people of a lack of self-discipline and willpower, and the other side justifies the use of the drug by saying that it was the last possibility and an opportunity to lose weight when all […]
You often hear that people wish for balanced well-being in their lives. I personally believe that there is no perfect balance. Life is constantly changing different phases that include different events. Life is then balancing between these different stages and events.

When people have one hour time to invest to exercising, the mindset is that it must be spent efficiently. When people age they start […]

An inappropriate culture can mean different things to people. In companies, it can happen that the management starts working on an organizational change, in which […]
We have adopted a mentality of a superhuman. We no longer even see how much we have things going on in life. A lot of doing has become our “default-mode,”our the normal way of working. We are always busy and talk a lot about it. Being busy has become our identity, our way of living. […]
When you look at people’s lives, you can easily spot that there are quite a few things going on. Work life probably takes up the most time and, of course, also eats away our mental resources. The rest of the time is spent on your own and the children’s hobbies, as well as running basic […]
Nutrition and eating speak volumes. In my work, a large part of the questions concern eating and weight management.
