Seven years ago I woke up in the middle of the night with a strange feeling. Two-and-a-half hours later T was holding a little baby boy, only 2,5 kilo’s. I remember seeing he’s tiny face and feeling a shock: he is someone! Not a little fluffy baby like other babies I’d seen. This was a…

Those that go searching for love only make manifest their own lovelessness, and the loveless never find love, only the loving find love, and they never have to seek for it. “Search for Love” The Works of D. H. Lawrence

to be your own
You want to be your own. You want to do things your way. You want to live the life that truly makes you happy. Then you come out of school and get an education because that’s the way to get a job to make money to be able to buy a house, support a family and go…

I’ve written an article on the connection between anxiety and self-respect for Dutch Glamour Magazine. Out now.
fear
“Are you afraid? How afraid? Three stars? Four stars?” The Belgian reporter walks around the street of Brussels asking people about their level of fear. Most people are afraid they say.

My friend Sofia is a yoga teacher. I had been doing yoga on and off for years when I met her. Going to classes once a week, stretching a little on the mat in the morning or for months nothing at all because I was too busy. She encouraged me to roll out my mat, to even…

Again I understand why it is so important to spend time in nature, to keep on questioning everything, not taking things for granted, just figuring out what’s your way to go in life and be brave. Even if it feels like exploring a dark cave…

I went to see the documentary ‘He named me Malala‘ last week, the beautiful story about this mind-blowing little creature who happens to be the bravest person I ever heard of. Not only because of her message and the fact she’s risking her life and that of her family by speaking out, but mostly because she has the courage…
on resistance
What are the things that cause most stress? Time. Hurrying, making schedules, changing them, feeling rushed, wanting too much in a too small time frame. Money. It this worth this kind of money? Could I have spent it better? Do I get paid enough? Will I get my money back? Resistance. I don’t want this to…
mountain love
Just a couple more weeks and we’ll be back again to fresh air, the sound of birds and the river (and our neighbour calling her cats), water straight out of the mountain, long walks, my friends. Can’t wait.
