What if freedom was our new form of security
What if… With the absolute confirmation that old patterns, old societal systems, old health approaches, old anthropocentric philosophies, male-centred hierarchies, white-privilege and capital-accumulation finances are taking us down the hole of self-destruction… It seems rather logic that the solutions will come from connecting to each individual where we all are at, not where we all […]
…through tough times.
There is grief and there is looking away. There is anger and there is putting up a face. There’s fear and there is hiding. And then there is presence. With whatever there is. Tough days are these. Environmental disasters, political shocking panoramas, gender and racial persecutions… I mean, what is there that’s not happening? I […]
Choose to love. And play.
And do things that are not too ‘serious’. When I play I feel the most vulnerable. You know, games for adults? Role playing fairies? Animal mimicking? I get so thrilled. My laughter changes. My heart rate goes up. My eyes open and I am in the moment. The world around me disappears, except for those […]
Living in the shadow… no more.
(This post is prompted by the indignation felt and experienced by conscious people facing the present dynamics around human rights on social media. We know who we are.) There has been times when turning into clandestinity was the only solution for those who were prosecuted for their ideals and actions to establish a fairer […]
The modern yogi
Merging ancient and modern technologies. I love this picture. There are more of me actually teaching my last class as a trainee at Karam Kriya School, dynamically demonstrating forward bends and loudly vibrating Sat nam. However none is as peculiar as this one, where I’m not sitting up straight with hands in prayer position but […]
There is only thing more important than Truth…
There is a white wall I look at every day where I should write this in big letters. We are all doing our best. We’ve developed certain values and we imagine a world where these are prioritised. Not seldom we identify where things are going pear-shaped, when the freedom of choice, of speech, of […]
New year resolutions? Where are they?
Fall is a gorgeous season. After the swim in the waters of new ideas, original projects, new collaborations, is it time to layer myself under the nourishing soil and harnessing the energy received from the fruits of my work and love, seizing the inspiration that will come from the longing I know I will feel […]
What is to be a woman?
Woman. Female. Feminine. Have these concepts ever been discussed more than nowadays? What do they mean? What is to be one but not the other? What is to be all and more? Identity is paramount. Whatever we identify with, it must be honoured, so we feel respected, accepted and included in the community. Identity discerns […]
Autumn, a time for hope…
Why governments approve destruction of natural habitats? Why haven’t we found fast sustainable ways of travelling? Why pharmaceutical companies control decisions on medical protocols? Why sexual freedom is persecuted? Why farmers are made hostage to GMO companies? Why labour, economical and social rights are gender discriminating? Why are we fed negative or false news ALL […]
The beauty of unrealised dreams.
“On the track, I must stop. I take a look. Long, tall, different, expanded. What is around me? The beauty of the landscape I so very well know and I fall in love with as if for the first time, every time. Or as if for the last time. I shall not […]
