Odysseus, meditation & intuitive intelligence

In the depths of our being hides a mystery that has been moving people since ages. The Odyssey describes the mysterious quest for this secret. Homer created the archetype of Odysseus over 2800 years ago, which was founded in the search for the depth of his nature, down many wrong paths before he could find […]

Happiness is space in your consciousness

Happiness is a feeling. It arises when a new dimension is added to perception: Room. Happiness is a gift that one receives when one leaves space. Happiness is our primary nature. That’s why you can’t find it when you look for it. Happiness comes naturally when you stop looking for it. This was one of […]

“Becoming the architect of one’s thinking”

The meaning of mindfulness meditation We are not the architects of our thought constructs. We are trapped in thought buildings that we did not construct. Many are blind to their own thinking and live their lives without ever having taken a look at their own thinking building. If we want to become architects of our […]

Natural meditation, the direct path to the peace of being

I started about 30 years ago with a simple meditation technique that my teacher at the time showed me. He suggested that I had too many thoughts in my head and that a little more distance from thinking would do me good.

I never wanted to repeat the algorithms of my parents. When I felt into their patterns and programmes, I felt narrowness, rigidity and mendacity. But above all, there was no real joy in life.

When we feel our way through life, moment to moment, we will be alive again, like when we were a child. […]

The Overview Effect

The overview effect is a phenomenon that astronauts experience when they see the Earth from space for the first time. This experience changes their lives permanently. The distance to Earth opens up a meta-perspective, not only on the planet, but also on themselves. No wonder, then, that US astronaut Edgar Mitchell, after his return from […]

Giving the brain a break

It was by chance that a neurologist named Markus Raichle examined the background activity of the brain of one of his test subjects, who was simply lying in the magnetic resonance tube without a specific task, when he took a break. Raichle found to his surprise that when the brain is not engaged in a […]

The thought-free space

As soon as we immerse ourselves in a thought-free space, even if it is only for a few minutes, our brain calms down and with it our organism. All relaxation and meditation techniques, regardless of their cultural background, seek this place of stillness. Nature offers us this place for free. Whether it is the vastness […]
