Brazil recap
Things I learned and remembered spending 3 Months Brazil
Got inspired by the women around me
String Tanga Bikinis are amazing! For the first time in my life, my butt is tanned. Everybody here has the butt-cheeks out. Women of all shapes and ages enjoy feeling sexy and free!
How to get to know something
Who would have guessed: It was very different than I thought it would be. To get to know a place I need to go there and be there. I need to go there, become aware of my prejudices and let them go. Enjoy beginners mind, assume I know nothing, wonder about everything and ask a lot of questions.
Nature
Being in nature makes me feel connected, safe and meaningless in a good way. When I swim in the ocean and look at the sky I feel at home. The biggest leaves i have ever seen, I saw in Brazil. There is so much green everywhere and it’s an orgasm for the eyes and the soul to be exposed to this. Nature is not only healing but also dangerous, wild, beautiful, perfectly aligned and totally messy. At the beginning the sound of the forrest was soooo loud and at the end I did not hear it anymore.
Fruits, Fruits, Fruits
One of my favorite parts about being in Brazil where the fruits and juices. Drank around 1,5 liters of fresh pressed juices every day and was sooo grateful for every single sip. I are Butia for the first time. It’s a fruit local in the South of Brazil. Something very amazing happens to my neurones when tasting a flavour for the first time, it’s a brain upgrade. 100%
Improved a skill with immersion and dedication
In 3 Months immersion I could improve my language skills a lot. Probably way more than learning with an app for 12 months. If I want to improve something I get faster results by 100% dedication for a limited time, then scattered attention for a longer time. So in what else could I get waaaay better by putting myself in the right surrounding and create a daily practice?
The world is a good place
People in Brazil are sooo nice. The world is a good place. I go somewhere completely different, where nobody knows me, thousands of kilometers away from “home” and what do I find? I get loved and welcomed for no reason. Many People just want to love others and connect. There are so many people with a good heart who want to have a good time with you. There are people who want to love you even thought they don’t know you.
Energy attracts
Your energy speaks also when your mouth does not. And your energy attracts what is meant for you also when everything around you is foreign. For sure it was not a co-incident that the house we rented was 20m away from a yoga studio. For sure it was not a co-incident that I met a women who told me that she recognised me from a past life. Meeting people I have spend other lifetimes with is nothing special, it happens all the time. Strangers are often not strangers, you just forgot where you know them from.
“Schmier” - ist zum auf’s Brot schmieren.
German Culture
Fellow germans, there are many more of us out there. There are so many germans (who have never been in Germany) in the South of Brazil. I didn’t know that, did you?
I talked to many brazilians in german. I was invited for a lunch that felt like eating at a german grandma’s place. You can see the german influence everywhere there. Names of products, companies and restaurants and yes they love eating Sauerkraut there too.
A lot of germans came to the south of Brazil from Hunsrück, some came before and some during and after the 2nd world war. Like everything this chapter of history has light and dark sides. What people there told me was that they really like germans because germans came there to actually live there, so in many places they contributed things to improve the living conditions in the communities. They did not take away, they added and they did what most germans do: Everything very properly.
Healing Journey
These 3 months were a healing journey - literally! And healing is not only lightness but also messy and uncomfortable and needs care, attention and energy. It can feel like moving backwards to heal old wounds but it’s so worth it to free yourself. The energy you put into your liberation today, you can safe tomorrow because when you live in alignment with you authentic self you flow and grow with less resistance.
Growth
So much growth can happen in 3 months. In 3 months you can totally transform your body, your mindset and how you feel about yourself. In 3 months your life can change a lot!
Some things that symbolise my growth in 3 months Brazil:
I created a new offer, THE ART OF SHARING, my first ever product to support women in the topic of authenticity and freedom of expression.
I created so many podcasts and behind the scenes worked on so many foundations that will upgrade my business a lot in the next months.
Started my 2nd Coaching Certification (soon i tell you more, i am learning about an AMAZING Tool)
I made a lot of money and at the same time worked less hours. I enjoyed my time in Brazil, i loved, i swam and spend a lot of time practicing yoga and surfing and still more and more women from all over the world became interested in working with me. Wonderful!
And this is a big one for me: I Implemented a strategy to organise my projects and goals, because “time management” was for so long an area of frustration for me. No more!
Ocean
A life-advice a grandpa-surfer gave me: “Aqua e vida.” Ocean-water is life! He recommended if i feel sad, it’s best to just go to the ocean.
And he is right. The Ocean cleanses not only the body but also my soul. mhhhhh.
I love the ocean. I feel best when I swim in the ocean 2 times a day. I take can as many supplements, meditation, yoga etc as i want ... nothing makes me feel as vital and strong and balanced and cleansed as the ocean. I repeat: When I swim in the ocean and look at the sky I feel at home.
Freedom
I feel so happy that I created a business and lifestyle that gives me the freedom to live and work where I want. There are always many reasons to not do it, so in the end it’s about priorities. We all have values (if we are aware of it or not) depending on the hierarchy of our values we make desicions. Wellbeing and freedom are my top ones.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Obrigada.
