Egoismus ist verpönt. Wer sagt schon gern: “Ich bin mir selbst am wichtigsten. Erst danach kommen andere Menschen.”? Vielleicht wäre aber allen geholfen, wenn jeder von uns egoistischer handeln würde. Selbstfürsorge – das Geheimnis für das Allgemeinwohl? Neulich habe ich bei einem meiner Spaziergänge durch die Nachbarschaft folgenden Slogan auf einem Titelblatt entdeckt: Selfcare for…
Der “vegane Hype” ist momentan nicht nur sprichwörtlich in aller Munde – und gewinnt zunehmend an Beliebtheit. Vegane Restaurants, vegane Shops, ja sogar ganze Abteilungen in Supermärkten schaffen Platz für die “vegane Welle”. Mit wachsender Popularität häufen sich allerdings auch die Vorwürfe und Vorurteile gegenüber einem Lebensstil frei von tierischen Produkten. Noch immer kursieren zahlreiche…
“At the center of your being you have the answer, you know who you are and you know what you want.” — Lao Tzu Who am I and why am I here in the first place? To begin with, it is kind of funny that one of the most influential lessons I have…
“Unsere Gesundheit ist wie Salz. Man merkt nur, wenn sie uns fehlt!” Eines vorweg: “Vegan” bedeutet nicht automatisch “gesund“!

“Deep in their roots, all plants keep their light.“ First things first. Switching to a whole food, plant-based diet and starting my yoga journey DID NOT CHANGE my life. I am the one who changed my life. But both, Yoga and veganism, were really helpful tools on my journey to nourish and recover both body…
“To change your health, think outside the box! Outside the pizza box, the cereal box, the cookie box, the cracker box…“ Me. There are so many advises on health these days that I regularly get confused about WHAT I should eat and WHEN I should do so. Should I eat pancakes or fruits for breakfast?…

“I believe that the greatest gift you can give the world is a healthy you.” Me. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when thinking about dining in Hamburg? For many, a fresh “Fischbrötchen” at the harbour, a warm “Franzbrötchen” (a typical cinnamon bun you can grab at almost any bakery here) and an…
In one of his talks, Robin Sharma says, “Ideation without execution is nothing more than delusion.” From my own experience, I can say that this is very true. During my years at university studying (business) psychology I’ve heard it so many times. Professors saying that “ideas are the currency of success and thinking drives…
Today, I want to share with you one of the most important lessons I have learned so far. “Attitude is everything,” is one of those overused sayings that we’ve all heard a million times in our lives, right? But, how does it become ‘everything’? How Yoga helped me For me, the real…
