morning dips-arkiv

Weekly statistics – autumn light, morning dips, and pausing to see clearly – this past week has been filled with soft autumn light, refreshing morning swims, and many small encounters with you, my readers. In addition, both the Swedish and English texts have continued to find new paths out into the world, as if the words themselves want to bathe in new lakes of readers.

Pausing – to Become More True to Ourselves

Weekly statistics autumn light morning dips pause – calm reflective river with a small bridge in autumn greenery

I believe we need to pause in order to truly meet both the world and ourselves.
Living here and now makes us more alive. When we slow down, we also start to notice the small details that otherwise rush by. It’s easy not to see the trees because the forest stands in the way, but when we step closer we suddenly notice the squirrel, the rough bark of the trunks, and the shifting colors.

It’s the same with people. When we dare to pause and listen – not only to the words but also to the tones and the pauses – we begin to truly see the person in front of us. And if we take it a step further and take responsibility for what we ourselves send out, for our thoughts and feelings, then we begin to shine. We find care, personal responsibility, and the courage to look ourselves in the mirror.

This is what I have learned during the past week. What have you learned?

AHA – Between the Lines

This is about more than numbers. It is also a story of how stillness becomes an inner compass. Morning dips, gratitude exercises, and writing are all ways to pause and choose a direction – small acts that quietly shape daily life.

Your Voice: Between the Lines

This week reflects a longing for balance and truth. The texts resonate with those seeking stillness in everyday life – and you, the reader, carry the same longing. When I see how you find your way here, it feels like a conversation that continues even after I close my computer.

Reflection

Something happens when we pause. We begin to sense the subtle color changes in our own inner landscape. There, in the quiet spaces, lies perhaps the most vibrant part of life – the one we can’t see when rushing past.

Thank You for Visiting

A Thought for the Road

Carry a moment of stillness in your pocket today. Perhaps three deep breaths at the kitchen window are enough. In that small pause, the biggest things often unfold.

Yesterday has already come to rest in history, tomorrow waits further ahead. But right now – this is where life happens.
