Mindfulness

How are your stress levels? Often my patients reply that they are fairly high, and in this day and age, life can be pretty full on for many of us at times. But a solution could be close at hand; there is lots of scientific evidence to support a technique called “mindfulness”. It has been shown […]

Culture & running

Participants in the Escher Kulturlaf, which took place last Saturday, profit from an urban cultural trail aiming to include the cultural sites of Esch-sur-Alzette and thus focus on what this town has to offer. It is also a musical event and a green event, and proceeds go to charity. Several reasons to check it out […]

Mind-body medicine: Stress and the power of belief

Life is a subjective experience for each of us. How you interpret any event in your  life determines your view of life. How you perceive your environment can be more important to your well-being than the actual environment itself.  Your perception also impacts your state of health because your mind and body are deeply connected.

55 year young barefoot DJ, riding an old Harley. Believes in the power of thought and the power of now. In orbit. No, this is not a hippie with midlife crisis. It is more of a midlife reflection from RTL’s Holger Richter. Holger Richter has been breathing radio – Berlin’s 100, 6 in and 98, […]

Tea with Rapunzel

Her name is Fabiana. She is seven years old. She has a life threatening disease. She had a dream, and it just came true.

Spring – searching for shadows

Baby green, the darling buds, snowdrops and daffodils, the tweeting (of real birds mind you), that smell in the air unlike any other and that something in the air. The clichés are never more numerous nor more beautiful than in spring. Spring fever hits a large portion of the population, caused by a very healthy […]
