Einstein and I

Einstein is said to have said: "Either you live like nothing is a miracle or you live like everything is a miracle."



Probably we all know the feeling of suddenly waking up to the miracle of life. Whether it's seeing the radiant colours of a sunset or witnessing the birth of new life or witnessing death, for that matter, but a lot of the time we tend to forget that life is a miracle.


I dedicate my practice to waking up to the miracle of life unfolding.
To wake up to my inner world and to wake up to the world around me.



Nisargadatta - a yogasage said: "When I look inside and see, that I am nothing, that is wisdom. When I look outside and see, that I am everything, that is love. Between those two my life turns."

I stumbled across yoga in 1993 and something in the practice resounded deeply in me. That I could meet parts of myself without telling the story of my experience, but just experience and I realized how lifechanging that could be. Since then I have been on that road.

“Once you realize that the road is the goal and that you are always on the road, not to reach a goal, but to enjoy its beauty and its wisdom, life ceases to be a task and becomes natural and simple, in itself an ecstasy.”
― Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

I became a yogateacher in 1997 and have taught ever since as well as plotting along with my daily practice, where over the years meditation has grown more and more important to my exploration of this mystery we call our body and this mystery we call our life.

For many years, about 12, my main form was ashtanga-yoga as taught by Richard Freeman in Colorado. I went to many workshops with different teachers and took Richard Freemans teacher intensive in 2007.

It seems my days of going to workshops are more or less over. I attend workshops less to add something on to my practice and more to just spend time with others in exploration. Creating sangha/community.

As a teacher I am very down-to-earth, non-dogmatic, serious and easy-going and joyfully curious. I am more interested in the process and our experience of the living quality of what ever unfolds that in any goal. And indeed being too set on goals tend to kill our joy in what we do. Life is too short to not be joyful.

When I teach I try to create an environment where it feels safe to explore ones inner landscape without feeling any pressure to perform.
An environment where we can explore, get to know ourselves better and in the end get to know our worlds better.
Where the foremost is the inner ...

But as important it is to ground and feel connected inwardly. As important it is to unfold and connect with our world. We are not separate and yoga is not yet another self-obsession. When we begin to care for ourselves, that awakens love for ourselves, and when we begin to love what we experience, then we can begin to give back to the world, what truly belongs to the world. Wholeheartedly.
