From Imbalance to Balance, to Vital Balance!

Originally I was trained as a Traditional Naturopath and Herbalist, and I added my Functional Medicine education much later, the curriculum actually was not offered until the late 1990. Functional Medicine and Naturopathy are two similar approaches to healthcare. Functional Medicine would not even exist if there had not been Naturopathy all along, it is […]
The Quantum Level

What is the Quantum Level? It has been long overdue to share this! What do I mean when I say we’re going to the Quantum Level? At the Quantum Level, we find ourselves in a state of non-judgment, in a state of awe and wonder. It is literally a state of innocent awareness. An awareness […]
The “Trance State”

The therapeutic trance state is in my estimation one of the most important, truly spiritual, empowering self-awareness tools. I am certified in 3 different approaches to Hypnotherapy, and I can use those tools to invoke this relaxed state with clients. In essence, I am facilitating space for others to enter this therapeutic trance state, which is a […]
Let Food Be Thy Medicine

“Let food be thy medicine” – one of the central statements of Traditional Naturopathy is still valid today. What we eat will support healthy cellular renewal and resilient tissue formation – or not. Here are a few thoughts on the naturopathic “plant-based” dietary concept for acute physiological stress and imbalances: When we eat less plaque […]
The Quest – It Continues

THE QUEST – continues. I love the question “WHAT IF…?” The journey continues, and I’m grateful that many of you have traveled along with me. I have learned much from all of you, in community. Many years ago, after a long, dedicated, soul-searching, journey with kindred souls, life as I had known it, shattered into pieces. I felt broken […]
Self Love

SELF LOVE – is it being in love with oneself, or loving being ourselves? Being in awareness of ourselves, we can begin to love who we are. And when we love who we are, we feel and embody that love. We are that – ourselves. Everything we do will carry that essence. They say: “Love […]
Listening to the Ancestors

The end of October is nearing, and soon it will be All Souls Day (November 2nd) again, which was in my upbringing in Germany, a day of significance. And this year I will have plenty more to reflect upon on that day. Living in awareness of the giving and taking, the interaction, between different generations, is […]
Change

Autumn has arrived, and the light is changing – With the length of daylight hours palpably shortening, we can inspire each other to make best use of the times in the light, and encourage each other to explore the depths of the change, and the significance of the promise of more times of darkness. Finding […]
Community

COMMUNITY – CONNECTION I want to elaborate on this today, since I spend several hours with the local community. Why is that so significant? I was watching the various flows of communication, the forming and resolving of circles, groups and exchanges, all this without anyone directing anything, just the organic flow of connecting. I was simply […]
Reflections Summer 2022

In my writings over the years I have shared my reflections, you might have seen them not only on social media, but also in my books and many in this blog, since I wish to encourage you to create space for your own reflection time. Reflections like those you would find in a still lake, […]
