Wind of Happiness - Create the life you wish for

Hey everyone, i know it`s been quite a while since I posted something but I hope all of you started well into the year 2025! Today I wanted to share with you 3 little reminders that can help you to invite more peace in to your daily life. 1. Gratitude I know it seems more than obvious but gratitude is more important than we might think. Gratitude invites us to find joy and peace in our daily life. It awakens our awareness of the present moment ´cause often we focus on our to do´s and future. But how often are we grateful with all that we already achieved? How often do we appreciate the things and people that are actually around us? Often we make the experience that we only miss something or someone when they aren`t around anymore. So... take a breath from time to time and make a list what you currently appreciate in your daily life. Even if it`s `just` a good book, a coffee or a beautiful flower. 2. Self care Self care is something we often forget in our busy lifes. So why not planning...

Hello everyone, actually when life gets hard, when external situations and routines change, when we go trough personal lows we often get anxious or sometimes even overwelmed. We get lost in negative thoughts, we get tangeled in panic and we just want to have back the feeling of control.  We start to compare how we felt in the past. Was life better? Easier? Happier? We blame or judge ourselves, we cling to old emotions and memories. Maybe even get a little depressed. Also the feature looks suddenly frightening and unpredictable. How should we manage everything? And this focus on either the past or the future, limits us to actually go through the discomfort, through the pain or fear. We try to suppress and avoid these uncomfortable and painful feelings instead of letting our mind find acceptance and peace with the presence, with reality. If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath.” ― Amit Ray Because the secret of staying strong i...

Hello everybody, I hope you are all doing well. I just think gratitude is so important to include in our daily life. Gratitude makes us feel alive and happy because we connect with the present moment and with ourselves. Instead of focusing what we do not have and would like to have, we appreciate what is already right in front of us. This way we are able to invite awareness in our life because we take a moment to truly see ourselves and not what is happening around us - we focus on the inside.. With gratitude we learn to accept our past and we let go of the constant necessity to control every situation. We let go of our ego and see ourselves with love and appreciation. We can let go of our shame and regret, we are able to forgive. With gratitude we give life a chance to embrace challenges instead of procrastinate and letting fear rule our life - this let us become a wiser and better version of ourselves. “Be thankful for everything that happens in your life; it’s all an experience.” ...

Life is short. I mean how often do we really do the things we really want to do? How often do we really say what we feel? How often do we really show our appreciation and love to others?  How often are we thankful? How often do we show our true soul? How often do we want to help? Do something good for others? Be humble, be kind. Life is mystery. Life is constant change. But life is beautiful. Life is deep. Life is a painting of all our experiences, all our memories. So just let every day be a special day - just remember it could be the last one. If you live this way, you can say in the end - life is a gift. The biggest gift.     © Wind of Happiness  

Hello everyone, January is almost over but I hope you had a great start into the year 2023! Today I am finally writing another mindful sunday post! “The moment you become aware of the ego in you, it is strictly speaking no longer the ego, but just an old, conditioned mind-pattern. Ego implies unawareness. Awareness and ego cannot coexist.” ― Eckhart Tolle  This quote just reminds me of being aware - aware of your thoughts, aware of your actions, aware of the things you consume and aware of the things and people you spend your time with. I think sometimes we´re all so busy to do our chores - but in this moments we are rarely aware of ourselves. And it´s in this times that we kinda feel disconnected and stressed. We aren´t listening to our inner selves and we quickly get unsatisfied with life. So please, take a step back. Take a deep breath and let your to do`s wait. Let your mind wander and explore your inner self. It doesn´t matter if you take a walk, if you make yours...

Hello everybody, today I just want to remember myself and you that we should not let other people an their opinions determine our lifes. Why are we always listening to others what´s good for ourselves? Why are other opinions than ours so important to us? I mean, why do we make ourselves unhappy instead just following our inner voice, follow our dreams? Or at least try to and when we fail, we stand back up again and look for another way to get through. I wish you courage! Be patient with yourselves - and loving! 💗   © Wind of Happiness

  “Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Be open to your feelings and experience them while they are here. Then be open to the feelings that will come next. Your feelings are a part of your experience. Yet no mere feeling, however intense it may seem, is your permanent reality.” ― Ralph Marston © Wind of Happiness

Hello everybody! I hope  you are doing weell. Finally I managed to write another post of my "Mindful Sunday series"! This morning I thought about how different the seasons of the year are and which feelings they awake inside me. I think winter is a very peaceful time where I feel cosy to be inside and love to watch the fire and the snow falling. When I go for walks everything around me is very still and it seems like nature is sleeping and resting to have the power to be fully prepared for the next year, for all challenges. In this time I also rest more than normally , I enjoy time around my family and it makes me aware from where I come from. Christmas reminds me a lot of childhood. Spring for me means to discover nature completely new. The smell of the earth, of the sun rays that warm the plants. The evenings that get longer from day to day. I just feel really awake and excited about life. As at the same time spring makes me feel a little melancholy. I love to see the first...

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well. It does not matter if you are currently in a relationship or if you are single. Just check out my top 5 tips how to keep a romantic relationship fulfilled - they could always be helpful, you never know! 💗 1. Remember the small things that make your relationship special. Which joyful moments you shared already with each other? Maybe there are some songs or pictures that you can enjoy together and remember these moments that also define your relation. 2.

Travel together. Like this you can spend quality time together and discover new things and skills th...

Hello everybody! I hope you are healthy and safe.  Many of us struggle with anxiety, especially in the current time of uncertainty. But anxiety makes us feel helpless and weak and hence tears us away from the present moment. Then we often forget for what we can feel greatful and all our once positive thoughts will disappear in anxiousness. “Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.” ― C. H. Spurgeon So here are my 5 top tips to reduce anxiety: 1. Make yourself clear that you are not your anxious thoughts. Write down everything that makes you feel worried. Like this it gets out of your head and you gonna feel released. 2. Try to take a pause in the moments you are feeling your anxiety. Place your hand at your heart and accept your feelings but tell yourself that everything is alright and that you can feel save. 3. In moments of anxiety try to take deep breaths. Imagine your breath wanders along your body - from your fe...

 “Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.” ― Edith Sitwell  © Wind of Happiness    

Hello everybody and happy November! It is incredible how fast time flies. Autumn is the perfect season to let go everything that no longer serves you. Only when you are not afraid of change, you can allow to free yourself of everything that does not bring value anymore or that even make you feel heavy. 1. Write a list with negative and limiting beliefs, emotions or thoughts that do not serve you anymore and burn that list. You will feel so much more free and create space for new things!  2. Declutter your work/living space. Give items away that you did not use the last few months! 3. Do not judge your past. When you identify yourself with your past and painful emotions then you will stay stucked in life and will not embrace growth. Try to change negative habits and replace them with postitive ones! © Wind of Happiness

“Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.” ― Roy T. Bennett   © Wind of Happiness  

Hello everyone and welcome to a new week! Many researches prove that spending time in nature has a tremendous effect on our mental and physical well-being. Furthermore being in nature makes us more mindful and can so teach us more about ourselves. Through nature we can learn to take a step back from all our stress and see clearly who we are and what we want. “Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.” ― John Muir So, whenever you have the opportunities to go for a walk take the chance in order to learn more about yourself! May you be happy and courageous to embrace new adventures!💜  © Wind of Happiness  

Hello everyone! I hope you are all well and save! Today I want to speak with you about why uncertainty is helping us to grow. In relation to this topic I found a beautiful quotation that says: “Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. ...live in the question.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke So, let me remind you that no matter where you find yourself right now, no matter if you go through uncertain times right now or not - it is all there to help you grow which means to get your inner power and courage back in order to then gain personal strenght.  Because only if we go through the darkness, through uncomfort and fear, we will grow. And growth always means as well to fail first but then have the patience to get back and overcome whatever holds you back.  I wish you a delightful and mindful sunday! With all my love 💛   © Wind of Happiness  

Happy Easter to everyone! I wish you a beautiful day with much peace and love! Today I want to talk with you about acceptance. I found an inspiring quote that shows really well how acceptance looks like: “Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.” ― Lao Tzu  I think acceptance is something many of us struggle with - maybe almost every day. But the truth is that if we don´t let go of things that cause stress and anxiety and aren´t our reality or things that are not in our own power to change, then we gonna hold on to unneccesary emotional pain. You always have the choice between 3 options: changing, leaving or accepting. So ask yourself from time to time: Which things make me upset or pull me down? Can I change them? If the answer is "no" then don´t complain anymore about them. Let go of them (leave) or accept them exaxct...

Hello everyone! I wish you all a wonderful sunday. Today I was reading this quotation: "People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be. When I look at a sunset, I don't find myself saying, "Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner." I don't try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds." ~ Carl Rogers  And it made me think that we should`nt try to change the people around us because it isn`t our task. We should appreciate what we like about them and face them with kindness and compassion. If there`s anything to change then it`s to start changing yourself if you aren`t satisfied with your life. If you feel stuck in the last weeks or months don`t worry because sometimes it`s ok to rest - to not want to control your life - your sunsets. Just watch them. And then when you feel ready to do the next step, do it!   © Wind of Happiness

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a great sunday. Today I want to share with you 3 tips about how you can deepen and strenghten your relationship in your daily life but also in challenging times. 1. Listen to the other person. And with listen I mean that you really take your time and truly listen to the words of the other person. Often we are caught of the stress of our daily lifes and we do not listen anymore to each other. This can cause misunderstandings and provoke unnecessary fights in your relationship. 2. Speak about something important. That can be your plans, dreams and things you love to do but also about your doubt and fears - just anything that is meaningful for you. This helps to create a better understanding for each other. 3. Be kind and show your appreciation & love every day. This will truly connect your hearts together and you will get day by day more grateful for being with that person rather than judge and blame him/her.   © Wind of Happiness  ...
