#mindfulliving
Found this though-provoking article on self-care on Healthline. swipe for the summary
.
Basically it breaks down self-care into caring for your body, caring for the inner self, and caring for your community. I think we all had a crash course on this in 2020, but it’s empowering to have concrete language around it.
.
Comment your next act of self-care! This peaceful cloud study was my care for my inner self.

.
My best friend and partner in crime @amriella_ She is my rock and my soul. Whenever I get a wild and crazy idea she’s right there by my side supporting me 100% To say I got lucky is an understatement.
.
We are working on ourselves as a team while developing ourselves further as individuals. She is on the home stretch with finishing her novel while I am studying to become an architect. Find you someone who is just as hardworking as you are so you can both lift each other up to greater things.

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

EAT: With the Ainu
Native to Japan’s northernmost island, Hokkaido, the world’s few remaining Ainu people protect an ancient culture, unique to this small corner of the globe. Hunter-gatherers by tradition with a deep reverence for nature, traditional Ainu food is a direct product of Hokkaido’s bountiful landscape.
Read on to discover Japan’s indigenous cuisine.
You’d be forgiven for not having heard of Ainu culture, let alone their food, yet the Ainu people have been residents of Japan’s northern tip for many thousands of years. Today, the Ainu’s diminishing population work hard to preserve their distinct heritage, including a unique food culture that can be credited for influencing many of Japan’s most famous dishes.
Unlike the Japanese who practiced rice farming, the Ainu traditionally hunted, foraged and fished for food, living off the land with a nutrient-rich diet that had a lasting impact on Japanese cuisine. Umami, for example, Japan’s infamous ‘fifth taste’ has its roots in Ainu cooking. Found in fermented foods such as miso and soy, umami is widely associated with Japanese cuisine, yet it can in fact be traced back to the Ainu’s use of kombu – an edible sea kelp which grows in abundance off the coast of Hokkaido. Kombu was adopted directly from Ainu cuisine and is today one of the most prevalent ingredients in Japanese cooking. It even forms the base for dashi– an umami-rich broth and one of Japan’s culinary cornerstones.
The Ainu practice animism, cultivating a deep connection with the natural world. This intrinsic respect for nature forms the foundation of Ainu cooking, and whilst Hokkaido today is best known for fresh seafood and dairy produce, the Ainu ate bear, deer and salmon, foraging wild plants, berries and grasses in-tune with the changing seasons. Living in harmony with the surrounding landscape, the Ainu would only eat what could be found locally, and never over-fished, foraged or hunted, protecting their future by eating sustainably.
Another key distinction between traditional Ainu cuisine and Japanese cooking is that fish or meat is rarely eaten raw, meaning sushi and sashimi are firmly off the menu. Instead, fish or animal meat is boiled into a soup, roasted or dried and preserved to provide food through the winter months. Traditionally, the fish skins and animal hides would then be used to make clothing.
Today the Ainu’s simple, sustainable, super-food rich cuisine is mainly eaten in private homes, though there are a small number of restaurants and cooking schools championing Ainu fare. In Sapporo, Ainu chef Hiroaki Kon opened Kerapirka in 2019 – one of the few Ainu restaurants in the world. In Tokyo, too, Ainu dishes are making their way onto restaurant menus, for examples at Michelin-starred restaurant L’Effervescence lead by chef Shinobu Namae, who aims to give Japan’s indigenous food the recognition it deserves.

Hellooo from Nusa Lembongan and our, right before sunset view. I’ll spend the last few days here before heading back into the cold. Berlin is calling, slowly but save :).
Have you been traveling around on any of these islands here?
I feel like I travel from one paradise into another.
It’s just magical and today’s day was one of the most grounding ones I had so far. We snorkeled with the most beautiful fishes, saw turtles, and watched a sunset which looked like right out of a picture book. As this isn’t enough, dolphins made their evening love show in-front of our eyes.
Still have goosebumps thinking of it.
And this shows me again, all the magic is created by nature. We need to take care of it <3
Sending love, light and fairy vibes

Did you ever think about why we like so much more than the ones which actually reflect the other % of our lives?
With pool or without a pool, with watermelon or without, with sun and Bali Vibes or without, I hope you have a wonderful Sunday which is not depending on anything else than you. Cause love is in your heart and it doesn’t matter what others do or you think they might do.
This picture is just % whereas I am currently sitting in front of my mobile screen posting! And then, I’ll sit in front of my laptop screen to work :). And the 98% are wonderful too. I choose them.
Lots of Love is coming you way

How is your #veganuary2020 going? Do you want to give it a try? Do you already eat vegan? I am curious!
You can check out my story if u missed about the vegan January. Also to not miss this the vegan bundle deal with a 96% discount.
I am spending some time in bed today with my laptop, a book, lots of fruits and golden mylk. @hartmannnicolas left back to Germany but I still have some of his mylk @vlyfoods which will help me cure my stomach together with turmeric and all the other probiotics I have.
Whenever you’ll be on travels in a country with bad water, always make sure to double check if the ice cubes are made with filtered water. I am pretty sure, that caused me that tummy.

“ℎ ℎ ℎ ℎ , ”
-
Leef in het nu
blijf niet dwalen in verdriet
laat je angst maar varen
want “straks” bestaat nog niet.
There is a Japanese term “shinrin yoku” which directly translated means “swimming in the forest”.
Doctors prescribe it to patients for stress related symptoms, and even though there’s a logical explanation to the healing benefits of nature, there’s also something magical to it.
The water has a calming effect on the nervous system, the natural light eases the mind, the silence and space sensitizes and grounds the body.
That’s the logical part… explained by science. The magical part is the one where you are at once allowed to be completely and utterly alone, yet completely and contently connected to something bigger and to everything at once. By being outside you get drawn in.
You’ll feel it when you go, and you know it’s there before you do. It’s right there waiting for you. A heightened sense of consciousness just waiting for you to dive in

In today’s rush, we all think too much — seek too much — want too much — and forget about the joy of just being.
Eckhart Tolle
Use every distraction as an object of meditation and they cease to be distractions.
Mingyur Rinpoche
Meditation practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we are already.
Pema Chödrön
The way to live in the present is to remember that ‘This too shall pass.’ When you experience joy, remembering that ‘This too shall pass’ helps you savor the here and now. When you experience pain and sorrow, remembering that ‘This too shall pass’ reminds you that grief, like joy, is only temporary.
Joey Green
The things that matter most in our lives are not fantastic or grand. They are moments when we touch one another.
Jack Kornfield
Peace begins with a smile.
Mother Theresa
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
Dalai Lama
When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
Helen Keller
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
Maya Angelou
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
George Eliot
I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.
Thomas A. Edison
Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
Neil Gaiman
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.
Oscar Wilde
We are all hypocrites. We cannot see ourselves or judge ourselves the way we see and judge others.
José Emilio Pacheco

Today is; #15 02 2020
I am currently on day 71 of my 365-day Yoga challenge. I can barely believe that I already have less than 300 days to go.
What I have been trying to do is living my yoga off the mat as much as I do so on the mat. I have noticed that I am more patient, less attached to things and outcomes, and overall more zen.
I have also noticed changes in my flexibility and my strength. I can do much longer sessions and higher levels of difficulty. I hope to grow even stronger in the coming months and to continue gaining life lessons from my time on the mat.
My one intention right now is to try to keep this site updated more often, maybe not daily, but at least 3-4 times per week.
Namaste:)
