I consider it a wonderful duty to retrieve conscious and unconscious issues from the depth of our female soul and unfurl them so that we can realise and understand who we women really are, what our intuition wants to show us, which abilities and needs we have, and what we can let go of and forgive in order to attain a happy and fulfilled womanhood.
Just because we have a female body, this does not mean that we actually express our femininity. After all, many women were shaped by a male-dominated education system and live in a world in which competition, conflict, ambition, power or pressure to perform are the order of the day.
Do we really want that?
I am thrilled and fascinated by the thought of immersing myself in our female collective together with you in order to bring to mind and use our inherent power and intuition more than ever.
Warm regards,
Ingrid
“Traditional psychology is often spare or entirely silent about deeper issues important to women: the archetypal, the intuitive, the sexual and cyclical, the ages of women, a woman’s way, a woman’s knowing, her creative fire.”

‘Women who love too much’ is the title of a world-bestseller. I am not surprised that the book has been read by so many people. It seems to be a typical female characteristic to love too intensively, and get lost in a relationship. But, can anyone love too much? Many women lose themselves in a partnership,Continue reading WHAT HAS LOVE ON EQUAL TERMS GOT TO DO WITH THE 4th FEMALE CHAKRA?
When it is about the differences between male and female characteristics, we usually come across typical clichés. But this is not what my article is about. I should rather make us women aware that there are sociological differences between the sexes which we should know about. This might help us understand men (even) better. TheContinue reading COMMUNICATION: MEN ARE DIFFERENT, WE WOMEN TOO
Scientists have noticed that the female body reduces stress more quickly and efficiently than the male one. The women in the study produced less cortisol (stress hormones) and less adrenaline than the men undergoing the same test. Also heart frequency and blood pressure rose less strongly in comparison. Nature has ordained that the male bodyContinue reading STRESS MANAGEMENT: MEN ARE DIFFERENT, WE WOMEN TOO
Many women are very sensitive, and when dealing with men they feel what is good for themselves or not. But nevertheless, they sometimes act against their own feelings, or cannot resist the temptation to take a risk. Maybe because they are curious, careless, adventurous, protesting, or they have simply learnt to be nice and submitContinue reading STRUCK WITH BLINDNESS
No, it is no coincidence that I have stumbled across the ‘four Indian laws of spirituality’ on the internet. Because, just like so many of you, I do not believe in coincidences any more. More likely, I see this ‘coincidence’ as a discreet hint from above to publish the spiritual laws on my blog, toContinue reading WHY IS IT WORTH HAVING A LOOK BEHIND THE SCENES OF LIFE
We are all more or less, emotionally manipulated by others, or wrapped around their fingers. But, on the other hand, we also know exactly how it works to achieve something the other one does not really want. We already knew how to do this when we were small. Think back to the time when youContinue reading HOW TO DETECT EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION
For a long time it was literally embarrassing, awkward, unsuitable, or even taboo, to talk about the menstrual cycle which accompanies, and shapes, the lives of every woman for much of their lifetime. However, this taboo is by no means restricted to older generations, or to societies with a very negative image of women. ManyContinue reading THE RED MOON OR: THE FEMALE MENSTRUAL CYCLE (2)
Many women are still expected to concentrate on satisfying the needs of not only immediate but also extended families. Without consciously being aware of it, they are directed by emotions, rooted in their clans, and connected with their first, and particularly their second, female chakra. This energy centre is situated in the area of theContinue reading WHAT HAS THE LACK OF FREEDOM GOT TO DO WITH THE 2nd FEMALE CHAKRA?
How often do we say YES, although we really want to say NO? And why do we actually do what we don’t really want to? Is it because we want to have peace, we do not want to be annoyed, or we do not have the strength for endless discussions? Because we don’t want toContinue reading YOU CANNOT WRAP ME ROUND YOUR LITTLE FINGER ANY MORE
As soon as a small crab, which is kept in a bucket with other crabs, tries to climb out and escape, the other crabs keep pulling it back. But what has this got to do with us women, and particularly with our first chakra, the energy centre at the bottom of our spine, from whereContinue reading WHAT HAS CLAN PRESSURE GOT TO DO WITH THE 1st FEMALE CHAKRA?
Do you remember the inquisitive and maybe cheeky, little girl you once were? Your lack of concern, naturalness and candour? Your courage, boldness and impetuosity, your urge to discover? Your uncomplicated way, your laughter, your curiosity, your wonder and thirst for knowledge? Maybe, on the way from girl to woman, you have suppressed your veryContinue reading WHAT GOT LOST ON THE WAY FROM GIRL TO WOMAN
Welcome to an outstanding, unique time! Just a moment. Isn’t it always said that history repeats itself because we never learn from our mistakes? This is a falsehood because at this very moment we are in a time of momentous change. How long will it last? Well, certainly for the next 10 to 15 years.Continue reading WHY OUR WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN RIGHT NOW
