I might change the title to searching presence. Lately, I've been a lot in my head spinning around money, success, relationships, my lifestyle, and my choices. Being triggered by an environment mainly based on looks and typical success stories that don't leave much space for actual happiness created by ones true expression but contentment created… Continue reading Finding presence

Women are the source of life
We are the origin of life, closely connected to the source and the source itself. We carry the seeds of creating life, the physical ability, and mental strength to create something new, the origin of pure power and balancing force in the universe. That’s why men seek to control us. That’s why men fear women… Continue reading Women are the source of life
Meditation sucks
A peaceful and quiet place. Maybe the beach, maybe a rooftop. The only sound comes from birds and the wind softly touching the palm trees. It's early in the morning and the sun is just about to rise, touching and caressing my skin with the first warm sunbeams making their way down to earth. The… Continue reading Meditation sucks
Breathe your fat of
As I wrote in one of my previous posts, I recently started my 200h breath work instructor training. Coming from a Pranayama background, I always knew the breath was kind of important. Kind of regulating the nervous system. Kind of key for a balanced, strong, and steady practice. One year ago, when I went through… Continue reading Breathe your fat of
How do you breathe?
When was the last time you actually noticed your breath? Noticed how deep it flows? How fast it goes? If you breathe into the belly or into the chest? What does you breath touch inside of you? As I am starting my 200h breath work instructor teacher training, my practice of conscious breathing expands in… Continue reading How do you breathe?
Ericeira – Portugal
Portugal war das Reiseziel meiner Kindheit. Bevor ich eingeschult wurde, haben wir jeden Sommer mehrere Monate im Van meiner Eltern an den endlosen Stränden der Atlantikküste verbracht. Der Kontrast zu Nepal könnte nicht größer sein. Aber ist es nicht genau das, was ich an meinem Leben als digitale Nomadin so liebe? In diesem Artikel möchte… Continue reading Ericeira – Portugal
Breath & Movement
In my classes, we tap into the power of our deepest breath. In nowadays society we barely ever get the chance to take a deep, relieving breath into the belly. Stress, pollution, noise, and an unbalanced lifestyle lead to a shallow breath coming from the chest, not the belly. When we are tensed up by stress,… Continue reading Breath & Movement
Where goes the sadness when it leaves?
And the darkness explodes, pours dark tar over a pure heart, slowing down my rhythm of life with an odor of ugly decay. Gives me that feeling I don’t want to feel, gives me that sensation I don’t want to sense, gives me that touch where I don’t want to be touched. And those claws… Continue reading Where goes the sadness when it leaves?
Ghachok 3.0
A quiet village at the foot of the Annapurna. Rice fields dominating the landscape. Farmers populating the valley. Dogs are bark, birds are sing, cicadas chirp, all melting into a symphony of nature. The surrounding hills show different shapes and corridors each unfolding with different lighting, weather and time. I could spend hours just starring… Continue reading Ghachok 3.0
About inner dialogs
The inner dialog is what determines your level of happiness. A few years ago, the way I was talking to myself was more than destructive. I used to put my entire focus on the things I couldn’t do: not losing weight, not living a fulfilling relationship, not being able to travel, not leaving the life… Continue reading About inner dialogs
You‘re the creator
No one is going to come and set the world around exactly like you want it to be. No one will rescue from your own shadows as your heart ist filled with sadness and despair. No one will pull you out of the hole you managed to get yourself into. No one will get you… Continue reading You‘re the creator
Mini Trek to Australian Camp
We’ve just climbed up to Australian camp (2400 m) to go for a mini trek over the weekend to check out some beautiful retreat spaces up in the mountains. It’s quiet, so quiet, and the Fishtail + Annapurna peaks seem so so so close but I know, that this is a big illusion. What looks… Continue reading Mini Trek to Australian Camp
Steady practice
You’ve probably heard the saying: yoga is not about touching your toes, but about what you learn on the way down. Yep, I agree. What I am learning on the way down is that the breath is the bridge in between body and mind.Connecting the physical with the spiritual, joining muscles and nervous system, uniting… Continue reading Steady practice
Move
México - Nepal Moving from down to up, from the ocean to the mountains, from hot to cold reflects the polarities we are all dealing with everyday. Isn't it that what makes life so beautiful, the constant ups and downs, the tension in between the two, the experience of one holding allowing the other to… Continue reading Move

Thoughts to ponder
Presence is my greatest drug. Not giving away power to too much or too little. Taste it, smell it, see it, sense it, touch it, perceive it, be the food, be the water, be the moment. See, fully, and be what you see, feel what you see, be the eye and the object, the skin… Continue reading Thoughts to ponder
Moving on
Life is all about going on. Going on with your duty, missions, dreams. Going on with what you have to do and with what you want to do. Going on with relationships, friendships, going on with your life. A big part of going on is letting go, in fact, it’s the same for me. Letting go… Continue reading Moving on
Finding myself
This part of my life is called: finding myself. I‘ve been preaching about society's dysfunctional patterns for a long time now. Some of you know my hate speeches about the 9to5 society, about jumping right into work after finishing school or university, about the necessary house, the big car, and the obligatory partner for life. … Continue reading Finding myself
Where’s the love?
We are all just constantly busy hiding. Hiding emotions, hiding extra kilos, hiding little lies and big ones too. So busy covering our tracks of what is not „appropriate“, „trendy“, „normal“ or „ pretty“ due to society’s standards. I hide like… all the time. I find myself too emotional, too vulnerable, too weak. I consider… Continue reading Where’s the love?
Ferocious skin
Am I at home in this skin? Looking into sharp mirror splinters full of desire on lonely walls reflecting some of what I want to be, covering the ugly in my soul, facing the cold and hard light of another reality whilst catching a glimpse on something soft and warm running through my fingers as… Continue reading Ferocious skin
Freedom
Where is it, the freedom that is held so high in nowadays world? Isn’t it an illusion, settling in the gaps between work and sleep, doesn’t it linger in between words and thoughts, hidden behind intentions, agendas, and human needs? Isn’t it the silent conductor of the endless and purposeless play of life? Get rich,… Continue reading Freedom
About toxins
It is a fact that humans (and domesticated animals) are pretty much the only species suffering from chronic disease. Allergies, diabetes, sleep difficulties, constipation, skin reactions, depression, and even cancer are something that is mainly found in human bodies and the ones living close to us, eating our food, and breathing our air. These diseases… Continue reading About toxins
Pure
Trying to create a life I don’t have to escape from. Trying to create an everlasting holiday. A never ending summer where pieces are held together by nothing more than light and water. Walking down the streets, feeling naked from within, no more hiding, no more hunting, no more wanting. Breaking the silence of your… Continue reading Pure
Vorsorge: Ein Häuschen in Mexiko?
Hallo allerseits! In den letzten Wochen habe ich einiges an Kilometern gut gemacht. Von Tulum ging es nach Mexiko City, von Mexico City nach Oaxaca City (die schönste Stadt, die ich jemals gesehene habe!), von dort nach Mazunte, von Mazunte nach Puerto Escondido, und von dort über Mexico City wieder zurück auf die Yucatan Halbinsel,… Continue reading Vorsorge: Ein Häuschen in Mexiko?
Travel Tips Tulum
Hey everybody! After 4 weeks of staying here, I made some quite beautiful experiences in Tulum I really want to share with you. Tulum is THE destination in Mexiko when it comes to yoga, lifestyle and insta-grammable places. The beaches here are really divine when they're not covered in seaweed. Unfortunately, the masses of the… Continue reading Travel Tips Tulum
Klima-wandeln?
"Fuck for Forest" verkauft privat gedrehte Pornos im Internet, um mit dem Geld den Regenwald zu retten, Friday for Futures vs. Ende Gelände, ökologische Absurdität der angeblichen Energiewenden und viel zu niedrig gesteckter Klimaziele: wie genau findet man sich eigentlich im Chaos der Klimaschutzbewegungen, Umweltpolitik und drohenden Umweltkatastrophen zurecht? Um euch (und vor allem mir)… Continue reading Klima-wandeln?
Mexico, Tulum und Hypokrisie
Seit einem Monat lebe ich jetzt in Tulum, Mexiko, auf der Yucatan Halbinsel an der paradiesischen Karibikküste. Auch wenn dieses Mal vieles anders ist im Vergleich zu 2019, als ich hier zum letzten Mal war, haben sich doch manche Dinge überhaupt nicht verändert. Die hippe Stadt ist zum Beispiel immer noch bei Weitem der teuerste… Continue reading Mexico, Tulum und Hypokrisie

Wie ich da gelandet bin, ist eine lange Geschichte und darum soll es heute auch gar nicht gehen. Heute soll es… Continue reading Laufen lernen
U.P.D.A.T.E
Hi everybody. Longtime no see. I feel like I owe you a short update about what's going on, especially looking at the fact that I really want this blog to come back to life. The last 1 1/2 years were tough, draining and hard like for everybody else out there I guess. Even if there… Continue reading U.P.D.A.T.E
Contradictory
This is me, last year, on top of the Hoba meteorite in the middle of the Namibian desert. It is the largest known intact meteorite with more than 60 tons and came down to earth around 80.000 years ago.Powerful shit, honestly.Experiences like this make we wonder, make me curious for more, make my mind travel… Continue reading Contradictory
