We got two questions for you: How are you feeling today? And now... how are you feeling today, with regard to yourself? ohh this one is a bit harder we know. We tend to spend so much time looking outside, that we forget to work on the most important relationship we have in our lives - the one we have with ourselves. But actually this relationship is the foundation for our healthy, positive life abroad. As how we are with ourselves is reflected to everything else we do, and all the other relationships we have. Join us on today's episode in which we'll share the 3 main reasons why we believe it's the foundation to everything really, but also what makes a good relationship with ourselves.

'Oh wow, I'm so stressed at the moment', is something we hear all the time. Being stressed became a natural part of modern society, and for years we've been told stress is bad for us; stress causes illnesses; stress will kill you. What if there was another way to approach stress that actually is good for us? Well there is! Studies showed that stress may only be bad for you if you believe that to be the case, so in other words... if you believe stress is helping you, is good for you - that's  what going to be. Join us for today's episode in which we'll also share 3 tips to approach stress differently and better (in our opinion at least).
