A simpler life

I decided to take the text from an Instagram post and publish it here as well. Right now I’m spending time clearing up parts of the land and observing where I want to put different elements in my Permaculture design for the farm. Snow turns out to be an efficient tool for Permaculture design [...]

The small cabin by the lake

In December I went up to Sweden to spend some time in a remote cabin. I had felt this longing for a place off from most of the modern noise and chatter, a place to listen inwards and really pay attention to what’s going on – both within myself and in the world around me. I got the [...]

Where you cannot hide beneath the surface. Thirsty you stretch out your arms. In a crowd, desperate, unhearing. Hiding, watching, where [...]

Internal Crossroads

When the inner voice starts dreaming of lost dark forests. Visions of old times. Stillness. Silence. In a world where you can no longer hear your own heartbeat. It is hard to see clearly. It is difficult to see through the fog, to view the true nature of things. The whispering winds, are they [...]

Walpurgis powers

Allowing the fire to cleanse and strengthen. Removal of stagnation, of those holding you back. Saying farewell to the foggy mind. Viewing the surroundings with new clarity. The sun speaks. Asks the questions needed to take the next step. To break out of this [...]
