Ferment yourself
Fermentation is very close to my heart.I love how the microorganisms which we can‘t even see transform food into its upgraded version. A version which is more time resistant, more complex in taste and much easier to digest. Fascinating. I also love the taste of fermented foods and how they make me feel. It‘s like…

All is full of love. Remember. It’s time!
It’s time to find the love within us. It’s time to see the love all around us. It’s time for the soul based living. Let’s no longer wait for others to give us love. Let’s no longer dwell in the illusion of separation. Let’s recognise the love we contain. Let’s recognise how much loved we…

Create magic in your life. Now!
When we are kids we feel that everything around is magical. Everything is exciting and fascinating. We play, do the things we love, explore and run around. We have lots of energy and move all the time. Life is one big adventure where everything is possible. Somewhere on the way to the adult life things…

Meditation. What? Why? How?
I’ve decided to write a post about meditation because it’s one of the biggest subjects in my life (next to ice bathing which is actually also meditation to me). Without exaggerating, I really can not see my life without a regular meditation practice. It is enriching for me in so many ways. I want to increase…

Kråkeslottet: magic realism, new projects, raw nature and millionaire shortbread
Life is a mystery and we never know where it takes us. We get to new places, meet new people and new challenges, see things from new perspectives. Couple of months ago it took me in a new place. A very special one. Far away north, on the most western part of the Senja island…

Ice bathing? Seriously? Why? How?
One of my favourite things about living in the north is bathing in the cold water all year long. It might sound crazy, but it’s absolutely doable and it can be an amazing experience, an internal dive and a total energy kicker. Actually, it’s like yoga. You practice ease, presence, body awareness and feeling, and it…

Life in the cabin, vegan Snickers bars and chocolate spaghetti.
I love staying at our cabin at Bjørnfjell in Northern Norway. It is a beautiful place near Swedish border with a very special landscape of large stone hills. The vegetation is limited to short trees, mousse and different kinds of mountain herbs and berries. Summers are really nice up here, with light days and nights, so…

Gotland – the mystery island of beauty, openness and ease
During last two years I have heard too many good things about Gotland, the biggest Swedish island. I imagined a very special place with long history, magical light, mild climate, endless white beaches, old windmills, art galleries, kind people and amazing food. My curiosity grew bigger every day and couple of weeks ago we finally…
