There are points in your life when you stop and say....my life has been leading up to this moment. This moment RIGHT NOW. Living here, doing this. And your whole life flashes before you. The ups and downs. The moments where you laughed and loved, but especially the moments that were dark and you thought you will never be able to come out of it. And then you do. And you look how far you've come. The journey, the lessons, the love, the loss, and the intent and unshakeable belief, that Anything Is Possible.

Do you know the feeling when you're so excited to live your life that you don't sleep. And not just because it's a big day like a job interview. It's just your every day life...!

I have been waiting for you, dear 2025. ✨

We just crossed 30,000 subscribers on The Curious Yogi (Yay!) What I started as a way to practice "yogic language" and to not forget what I am studying in Yoga Teacher Training, turned out to be a reason why I came out of the pit. To everyone who listens and writes the beautiful comments — Thank You. We are all helping each other and the paths were meant to cross.

I will see you again for the Full Moon in Aquarius — the season we have been waiting for. Anything is Possible. I believe in this. I believed in this when I was in the pit, waiting for months and years, optimistically for things to change. Until I realized, I needed to see things for as they are. Not for as they can be in my head.

📚 A few lovely things I am reading now:

  1. With the End in Mind: How to Live and Die Well by Kathryn Mannix
    (I am lucky enough to meet the author next week...perhaps a book review is coming up :-) )

    This subject of death and mortality has been so huge for my journey. I lost my father when I was 16 but losing Mocha last year broke everything in me. And trying to reconcile why we are here? Is life about making money and treating people like shit? Of walking out of your loving home? Of keeping people hanging and waiting? Or is there a purpose? What happens when we die? We will die. We are one day closer to death every single day. What's the legacy we are leaving behind?

    There is so much more I want to talk about Life and Death. Souls. Soulmates. Soul dogs :) More to come here. Much, much more.

    [ 🐶 As a segway, some of you know I studied a bit of Animal Communication (AC), predominately to connect with Mocha (this was approximately a year ago now, when Mocha was really falling sick). And I have been trying a bit of AC and some spirit/medium work to keep connecting with her. I have now started my AC training again — with the goal to hopefully talk to other dogs around me. To be open to other dogs and not be sad about it. Cause Mocha is my whole world when it comes to dogs. She is pushing me and now I am following her advice. Thank you, Love. ]
  2. This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things by Naomi Woods
    (I met her yesterday, wow, who am I! She is so, so lovely.) I am in the middle of reading this beautiful, striking book of short stories. I love short stories. The tension — love it.
  3. There Lives A Young Girl in Me Who Will Not Die by Tove Ditlevsen
    It's a book of poetry. That's all I have for now. I will report back once I have devoured it.

    ✍🏼 A journaling prompt that I am working on myself: Happiness Is...
    (what is it to you? Ask yourself.)

    Please take care of yourselves. See you soon for the Full Moon. 🌝

    Love
