    Can we talk about how beautyful she sang and played the guitar?🫶 I also really liked the part where your thoughts are flying around your head. (When you lied in bed)And I guess we all have thoughts like that from time to time. And I also think to just bulldoze or ignore these thoughts or parts of us by spiritual bypassing them will not make us whole again but rather enhance our inner splitting in more and more suppressed fragments. Wich probably will result in physical illnesses. So I like you encouraging others to be present with cause we are the most important people in our life and we are so worth, SO WORTH! of taking care of ourselves and listen to our inner reality!

    Yes, what you described is what he went through personally. Despite the pain 💔of these feelings, I found great solace💕 in your description of them. I even thought I was lucky 🤩 to experience these kinds of feelings. But there is a voice🧚 inside me that says they are just symptoms of transformation🐛 and moving to a better state🦋. I don't know if that's true. I also don't know that what I fear will happen in the future is actually true. Only God knows. But some smart people describe the future as a space of possibilities🎲. Therefore, it would be wise to choose happy possibilities🌈, so that the future will be like that. This is what other intelligent people call God's call within us. We just believe that the coming will be better. This call is what distinguishes any living being from another without life. It is the cause of the breath in the chest, growth in cells, strength of movement, and healing of wounds, and it is the pulse in the heart. 💋 to the toe. I hope it recovers. Be careful next time and don't hurt it. By the way, your voice is beautiful, like everything about you. It would be fun to share healing methods with us. Have a blessed trip❤🙏🌿.

It was the first time I can recall hearing this acknowledged. I will find the name of the podcast episode if you are interested. Also very much relate to the compulsive distraction & mental running away at the moment. Starting with re-establishing a morning routine is a good idea - I would like to do the same.

      I‘m very interested! And it reaffirms my intuition. Taking action like a walk is definitely is good when feelings/thoughts are too overwhelming. And then there are things like somatic experiencing and trauma informed healing methods that can really make a difference (when we’ve gone through trauma). I just feel this topic is often overlooked and downplayed in the spiritual scene, and in my opinion can actually be quite dangerous to think that meditation mindfulness of the cure for everything. For me they are fundamental for my healing process, but certain things just need additional approaches imo.

    So much of what you have said resonated, as you know Nastja, I am a great advocate of meditation & mindfulness. I find this easy to do when my life is great, but definately not easy to do when my thoughts are all over the place and I have no space to put them to one side or in a box to thus enable me to practice those things that I know will ultimately help me. It's something I struggle with most days if I'm honest. I think the change to your morning routine is a positive one. I used to turn on TV when I woke, I no longer do this. The news always breaks my heart and sets the tone for my day if I do that. Acknowledging your thoughts can be a good thing, sitting with them and imagine them floating by, off to some other realm where they won't bother you. I dunno, I do try and always remind my self 'This too shall pass'. Healing is a deeply painful process, it leaves us vulnerable but ultimately, we do gain strength from it. It may not seem it at the time, but we do. Thank you for just being 'you'. I helps others like me just to be 'me'. ❤🙏. P.S. Love to hear you sing and play guitar so wondefully.

But in cases of trauma, I just don’t think that it is enough to meditate and practice mindfulness. I just wanted to make that point because I feel it’s often played down the spiritual scene.

    So much beautyfull wisdom expressed from your beautiful mind with your beautiful voice from your beautiful lips and eyes! Dear Nastja as I read in another comment I also agree that in my view you look now so much better than in the younger pictures …more wise more strong more forgiving more connected to your self and life. I really think there is this Beauty that comes with age ( in some people not all) When you experienced life and people and things you can not explain , when you aquire wisdom that is not attained by books or movies that is a beauty that you can not really explain it is just there. Thank you for all the effort you sacrifice to express your voice here on RUclips! Congratulations to your beautiful being! Love Indu

    Das sind so wertvolle Gedanken, die Du obendrein so wunderschön untermalst mit Deinen Aufnahmen. Über das Altern mache ich mir auch so meine Gedanken. Ich werde dieses Jahr 41, bin eigentlich schon sehr grau, Falten, ja, die sind auch da. In der letzten Zeit habe ich wie auf magische Weise Menschen wieder in meinem Leben, die ich schon fast ein Jahrzehnt nicht mehr getroffen habe. Natürlich sind auch sie gealtert. Mein Partner hat gestern endlich ein aktuelles Foto von sich gemacht und ein altes Profilbild damit ersetzt. Natürlich sieht man die Veränderung, die Essenz, wie Du sagst <§ Manchmal empfinde ich mein persönliches Altern überhaupt nicht schön, sehe aber die Schönheit bei anderen alternden Menschen umso mehr. Manchmal ärgere ich mich über die Art und Weise, wie ich mich verändere. Andererseits denke ich, dass es doch ein Privileg ist, dieses Alter zu erreichen. Ich denke manchmal: "Wie viele Sommer habe ich noch vor mir?" "Wie oft darf ich mich noch auf die Herbstzeit freuen?". Wir sollten das nicht für selbstverständlich halten. Und ganz ehrlich: ich persönlich möchte keine 20 mehr sein, weil ich da noch vieles lernen müsste bzw. "falsch" machen würde. Ich schätze die Erfahrung mit 40.

Ich denke ständig über meine eigene Endlichkeit nach, gleichzeitig bin ich aber auch (wie du sagst) verstärkt dankbar dafür gesund und am Leben zu sein. Ich versuche meinem Körper so viel Gutes wie möglich zu tun (der Seele natürlich immer auch).. aber dadurch fühle ich mich einfach besser und spüre meine Essenz mehr… Mal sehen, wo die Reise noch hin geht… 🌈 ich danke dir für den Austausch hier und schicke dir eine liebe Umarmung 🫂

      @@EmbraceYourselfBaby Der Verlust deiner Eltern tut mir leid. Ich glaube, das erfordert viel Stärke, die mitunter wichtigsten Menschen in seinem Leben gehen zu lassen. Und das kann einem erst einmal die eigene Endlichkeit deutlichst vor Augen führen. Darüber denke ich auch tagtäglich nach, nicht nur in Bezug auf mich, sondern eben in Bezug auf meine Liebsten. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass ich in die Wechseljahre komme und das ist auch ein Thema, der einem sehr deutlich macht, dass der Körper sich wandelt. Wie du schreibst: es ist wichtig, seinem Körper und seiner Seele "gutes Futter" zu geben und ich finde es schön, in deinen Videos auch darin einen Einblick zu bekommen, wie liebevoll und gleichzeitig pur deine Esenszubereitung zu sein scheint. Lustig... meine Lieblingsjahreszeit ist Herbst. Und wenn ich das auf einen Zyklus in meinem Leben beziehe, dann wunder ich mich darüber, dass ich noch sehr viel Akzeptanz lernen darf, dass mein Körper auch genauso einem Wandel und einem Zyklus unterworfen ist. Wünsche dir alles Liebe und schicke eine Umarmung an dich :)

    Oh, Dear N, …..I had to chuckle at the “signs of aging” you might be finding in the mirror 😽. In my book you look 22, TOPS😂😄. Let’s talk in another 20 years. I admit, I’m a wee bit shocked (at 65) when I look objectively in a mirror or at a photo that is “too close for comfort”. The shock, however, comes less from what I see and more from the fact that I know I am not essentially any different from the 6-year-old who still felt clean and clear of most of the world’s influence. Thankfully, our eyesight naturally wanes over the years, and we are spared the harsher critique 😆😆🥰💋 -V

    This is a poem. Thank you for sharing the rawness and beauty of your journey. As someone who finds herself changing rapidly, 20 years into a relationship- I find myself in your former partners position. - Loving my partner so deeply, so used to his essence, but finding that I’m growing in a different direction. I don’t want this at all. I don’t want to start over. I don’t want to be without my best friend. But my soul leads me into an unknown path. I know the direction to travel in. But I’m simultaneously both terrified and lit up by the thought of it. I know it’s the right thing; but it doesn’t make it easy.

      Your comment reads like a poem, too.. and I think it’s no accident I received it today.. at my wedding anniversary… Thank you so much for your perspective and heartfelt words .. 20 years is a really long time. Growing into a different directions and changes of identity is something foreseeable.. sometimes in order to stay connected it is necessary to go into our autonomy again. I was too blind, or maybe too scared to see that, but I am recognizing it, too… I wish you lots of strength on your new path. I know the position you’re in from my past relationships as well (though they were not that long). But I know that it takes lots of emotional work and courage. Thank you for being here and for sharing parts of your story with me. I appreciate it a lot ❤️ Sending you a warm hug through this digital tube 🫂

    I hope this isn't an inappropriate comment (!) and it's a little besides the point, but in my opinion, you've become more gorgeous with age! Part of that might be connection to that essence but there's also a new elegance compared to younger photos.

    Beautifully captivating in so many ways. I have struggled so much with ageing over the last couple of years as it seems to have happened overnight. (In my eyes anyway)😂🤣 One moment I catch a glance of myself, young, vibrant & one of the so called 'cool kids' to seeing myself as a middle aged man no longer cool & somewhat irrelevant in today's world. (i still reckon I could be the newest member of The Rolling Stones though. haha. Anyway, then I watch something like this and realise how privelidged I am to reach the age I am...That I have the luck and opportunity to grow older as many are not blessed with that. I hope my body holds out long enough that I am able to help others on this weird and wonderful journey on this planet, but if not, I know I will still be living the best I can in whatever realm my soul chooses. With age comes wisdom and with wisdom comes beauty. We simply cannot lose Nastja. Thank you for these wonderful videos. 🫂P.S, sent you email the other day. 🙏
