Today more and more women are suffering from symptoms of unhappy hormones.

Self-Obsession & Self-Nurturing: A Fine Line
For many generations western principles have encouraged us to either strive for power and recognition, or to give of ourselves until we are depleted. Yet these concepts are clearly not working for us. Today life is no longer primitive, we are surrounded by high-tech gadgets and specialized health and beauty treatments. We no longer have to rely on our neighbors, we can simply pay for any services needed. We appear to be completely self reliant for the first time in history. Society has become so efficient that if one seeks help for depression, the doctor will hand you a little box of white pills to take your problems away. The same as a gynecologist will do…

Loving Your Body – Story and All
We are born with one body; one beautiful, intelligent, dynamic, body that allows us to experience all the joyful sensations of this life. The body is more resilient than you could ever imagine. It can do processes that show miracles exist. The body is like a filing cabinet, it holds on to the story of our life, including all the unprocessed fear, guilt, shame, anger and resentment.

We believe we should look like someone…

I Trust My Body
What does it mean to trust your body? Why should you have to? What is there to trust? Maybe our body holds our innate truth? Maybe it is our barometer illuminating unresolved stories through pain and other online gaming imbalances? And maybe the body shows us what is working for us and what isn’t? Our body is the only thing in this life that is really ours; best we look after it. Over the last century we have been part of quite a large experiment. Through the industrial revolution humans have discovered many interesting processes and products. But since mechanical medicine has overridden empirical medicine our ability to listen to the body’s signals is no longer encouraged. We have…
