SoulSurfing English

I answer messages quickly. Not out of politeness, but because it feels like the thing that wants to be done, and somewhere along the way I started expecting the same in return.

So when I write to a friend and see that the message has been read, and then a day goes by with nothing coming back, something starts up in me that has very little to do with the friend. He is ignoring me. He wants to punish me. Nothing has actually happened out there, and in here I have already produced a whole Netflix series, with a murderer, a villain and a victim. The victim, of course, is me.

And that is exactly what this episode is about. What we see in other people is not a fact, it is our own state of mind reflected back at us. The person who did not answer is usually just making dinner, entirely innocent, and the only place my peace can come back from is the place where I lost it.

In this episode I talk about what to do with that. It is not about arguing better or explaining your hurt more clearly. It is about handing the whole story over, which is what forgiveness actually means. I give it away, and from there the situation can be corrected by something wiser than my own thinking.

This episode is for you if you
· replay conversations in your head long after they ended
· read silence as rejection
· would rather be right than be at peace
· notice how much power other people have over your mood
· want something to do the next time it happens

Afterwards you will notice the moment the film starts running, and you will have a choice about whether to watch it.

Be grateful to everyone who does not answer you the way you wanted. It is a chance to get free of the ego thought system, and those chances come around more often than we would like.

White clothes. A luxury resort in the foothills of the Himalayas. And a healer standing there, quietly begging to be booked. That healer was me!

I wouldn't have called it begging back then. Back then it was called service. Being available. My spiritual ego had one line on repeat: please see me. And scarcity answered.

You know the movement, even if your version looks nothing like mine. You meditate. You read. You book the retreats and you do the work. And still that quiet voice keeps going: something's missing. One more course. A better teacher. A bit more discipline. Then.

That's the carrot on the stick. The faster you run, the further it moves.

In this episode: why wanting it this badly is exactly what keeps it out of reach. Why the spiritual ego is the hardest one to catch, because it looks like growth. And why your awakening can't happen tomorrow. There is no tomorrow. There never was.

Here's what I wish someone had told me back in those white clothes: you can stop. No longer sitting. No better teacher. No future version of you who finally makes it.

Listen if you're tired of looking.

The most important thing my doctor ever did, was lie to me.

My doctor looked me in the eye and told me I would walk again. He was lying.

The statistics said something completely different, and he knew it. He made a conscious choice to keep that from me, because he understood something most people never learn: the so called truth can be the thing that stops you from healing.

I've thought about that moment for years. Not because of what he said. Because of what it revealed about how a single sentence can decide what your body does next.

We collect labels. Diagnosis, prognosis, percentages. We repeat them until they stop sounding like information and start sounding like a verdict. And then the body does what bodies do. It listens.

In the new episode I say something I've held back for a long time:

I believe there is only one real disease. Not a virus. Not your genes. Not bad luck.

It's the belief that you are separated. From life, from other people, from who you actually are. Everything else is a symptom.

Once you accept that belief, the body starts answering to it.

I know how that sounds.

Listen to the episode before you decide.

This week I had everything to fight against. A project moving

in a direction I didn't want. Situations pushing back. And

somewhere in the middle of all that resistance, this sentence

arrived: This is it. Stop looking.

In this episode I am talking about what healing actually means,

why there is no split between a spiritual life and a personal

one, and why the thing you've been searching for was never

somewhere else to begin with.

Healing, to me, doesn't mean fixing something that's broken.

It means realizing there is nothing to fix. That everything

real cannot be touched. And that what feels wounded in you

was never what you truly are.

There is only one life. And in that one life, you are already

what you've been searching for.

Maybe you have already noticed it. You scroll through the news, watch one more video about what is going wrong in the world and somehow you just can't stop. Not because you enjoy it, but because your brain has learned that danger is worth paying attention to.In this episode I talk about exactly that. About the fear algorithm that lives not just in your phone but deep inside your own thinking. About how we have been trained to look for threats, conflicts and problems and why this pattern is so incredibly hard to break.I also share what happened to me recently, how I screamed my anger out on the way to the gym and what that moment taught me about letting go.Together we go through an exercise from Lesson 90 of A Course in Miracles that will show you that your problem and its solution have never been separated by time.You were never truly trapped. You just forgot where the switch was.

During my recent trip to Mexico, I made some intense and humbling experiences – a 6.5 earthquake, a powerful moment at an ancient sacred site and a simple situation at a resort that showed me just how deep our conditioning can run.

In this episode, I reflect on what enlightenment really means. Beyond the spiritual clichés and false promises of a final awakening moment.To me, it has became clear: Enlightenment is not a sudden light explosion where everything is perfect from then on. It's a process of choosing peace over pain or love over fear.What I also share is the 3-step practice that's helps me to move through my own moments of fear, ego and resistance.

If you've ever felt torn between the spiritual truth you sense deep within and the chaos of the everyday world this episode is for you.

What if suffering isn't caused by life itself, but by how our nervous system reacts to thought?In this episode, we explore how inner tension, fear, and emotional pain arise through habitual thinking and how presence gently interrupts the stress response.You'll discover why suffering is not the same as pain, and how returning to the body and the present moment allows the nervous system to soften and find safety again.This is not about fixing yourself. It's about noticing when the mind pulls you into fear and choosing to come back into your body.

In this powerful episode, we explore how to move beyond collective helplessness and reconnect with our true inner strength.

We dive into the illusions of ego, the traps of fear, and the transformative force of love. It's not about doing more – it's about waking up.

What is real luxury?

This question accompanied me on my journey to Bali, where I found myself between airport lounges, duty-free stores and quiet moments. When I finally settled into myself, I discovered a sense of peace within the chaos around me.

In this episode, we explore the illusion of luxury, the quiet feeling of inner richness and why nothing outside of us can ever give us the deep peace we long for.

If you sometimes feel caught in stories of conflict and separation, while deep inside you sense a gentle call back to love and oneness, this episode is for you.In "Leave the world behind – From separation to oneness" we explore how to shift the focus from the exhausting lens of the ego to the soft clarity of your true being. You'll learn how to let go of mental noise, reconnect with the source within, and practice a simple breath sequence to awaken your intuition and inner peace.With inspiration and gentle guidance, you'll discover how to surf the waves of life from a place of unity, love and flow.If this episode speaks to you, please leave a review or share it with someone who is ready to remember their light.
