Spirituality and personal development are more popular than ever. Many are seeking to liberate their minds and create their best lives. But what is authentic spirituality? How to balance self-improvement and self-acceptance? Is all happiness within, or do circumstances matter? Together we'll explore these questions. I will share with you what worked for me, and give you an insight into my own mind and heart. I will also be interviewing leaders, teachers, healers and coaches in the field of spirituality, self-development, nonduality and tantra. Let's expand consciousness together.

This is a topic dear to my heart as it has been a big theme on my path, and also, something that very often confused me. Where is the line between radical ownership, transcendence of the mind, whilst still staying a normal human with normal feelings in relationships? I recorded a podcast about it to dive into all the subtleties of the process and hand different methods from the wisdom traditions.

There are profound realizations that can happen during meditation, near-death experiences or ayahuasca, that are so profound and revealing, that they often change the entire course of ones life. Does this mean that all we need is to have one insight that is deep enough? Can enlightenment happen in a flash? In this podcast I speak about how to approach deep spiritual experiences, and how we both under-estimate, and over-estimate them, and the degree to which we can lean on them.

An endlessly fascinating and revelatory inquiry anyone can ask themselves is 'Who am I'? Where do I begin, and where do I end? What am I, and what am I not?
In this video I talk about what is known and what I like to call 'Jnana Yoga', but what maybe more know as non-duality; the Yoga of the intellect, in which we don't do any poses, but instead, use our intellect and thinking to go beyond intellect and thinking, and find our own formless source, and perhaps, a liberating insight.
Enjoy listening

What people some-times find hard to believe about me is that I have struggled since a young age with returning episodes of depression.
I had even people question me if I was lying about it.
But the truth is that it has since a young age been a returning theme in my life, and one of the main reasons for my intense spiritual seeking and practicing.
What is depression? People give all sorts of definitions to the word.
I’ve heard people say that what I experienced wasn’t depression because in order to call something depression it needs to last a lot longer and needs to be far worse, they said.
I would highly encourage anyone to never wait for someone else to confirm or approve your feelings.
If you can feel it, it is there, and the correct concepts don’t matter so much.
There is simply an indication that something inside wants to be looked at, or that life is asking for something to be corrected.
In my eyes, the word depression already indicates the simple meaning itself; it is a pressing down, a heaviness weighing us down, that makes us lose touch with our natural state.
For me it is a state in which I lose hope and confidence, feel sad, and want to hide myself under a blanket away from the world.
As I currently have been through a period that besides many highs and experiences, also caught me more often in darkness, I feel to share about it, also because I believe I have something valuable to share; it has actually been one of my main motivations to start coaching some years ago.
Where I used to be stuck for years at a time, I’ve learned nowadays to snap out of it a lot faster when it comes.
There are many many ways beautiful and natural ways to heal ourselves, that unfortunately most of modern society seems to have forgotten.
I share more about these ways and my personal story in my latest podcast. A vulnerable but honest share!

In this podcast that I am recording from the beautiful foothills of the Himalaya's in Rishikesh, we will dive deeper into misconceptions of what some call 'neo-advaita' or modern non-duality teachings that are quite popular these days. We will look into a three stage process towards liberation we can learn from Ramana Maharshi's teachings, and we will look at the difference between spiritual awakening and enlightenment.
Let me introduce you to Jayden Grahlman.
I learned about him a while ago when someone introduced his music to me and I was immediately blown away. If you haven’t heard his music before I am excited for you because I am sure you will be just as blown away as I was. Conscious rap, high vibrations, incredible lyrics and high musical skill. So much positive energy. I believe it’s just a matter of time before he will become quite famous with it. Besides a musician he is also a coach, who specializes in self-inquiry, and a Miracle Maker, which we will all ask him more about what that precisely means. I am super excited to have him on the show, to introduce him to you, and to get to know him better today.

Let me introduce you to Dorian Das. I found Dorian through Instagram where he shares short pointers towards the deeper truth inside us all, the realm of no-mind in which everything is connected. I felt his presence beaming through his posts and knew I had to invite him to the podcast. Feel and see his authentic and grounded presence for yourself in this podcast, in which we talked about his near-death experience that sparked his awakening, his spiritual journey of meditation and devotion, and in which he even shares a bit of his spoken word poetry magic by the end.
How to answer the question 'Who Am I'? What is Tantra? What is the purpose of life? How do we heal through spiritual insight? Join me and Sebastian Valensi, founder of The Heart of Tantra and The Modern Mystics School, for one and a half hours of philosophical dialogue in which we dive deep into all these spiritual and existential questions.

In this podcast I intend to take some of the heaviness of the word enlightenment, we will explore the differences between enlightenment and self-realization according to different traditions, and we'll discover the philosophy of solipsism. And who knows, by the end you might have had your unique experience of total oneness.
In this first episode I will tell you all about my experiences at the Tantra Festival in Portugal this last summer (2021). Many of you seemed curious and to be having wild imaginations about the juicy secrets that happen behind the scenes in the world of Tantra. I will tell you all about these secrets, and we will also explore the difference between traditional tantra and neo-tantra movement.
