The gifted present
Dear Petra, You won’t believe how loud I laughed when I saw the picture you sent me the other day. It looked like you were visiting Alice in Wonderland, bending your body in half while trying to reach the tap so that you brush your teeth. I think you are starting to understand why 1)...
Time flies when you’re having deadlines
Dear Saar, There’s no deadline like a vacation coming along ever so quickly. I feel like I have to squeeze 4 week’s worth of work into one tiny week. Surely this is impossible and the work is piling up around me, but I still feel strangely calm and light. Maybe that’s because I’m flying to...
Addictive behaviour
Dear Petra, Is time the main issue in the case of doing or not doing something, really? Isn’t it about using our time efficiently; having that ‘getting-things-done’ mentality? You see, I believe in the following: if you are interested in doing something, you only do it when circumstances permit. But if you are really committed,...

What makes you come alive?
Dear Petra, what better day to write you than the first of a new month. (Please let spring be here soon, please please! I’m done with being snowed in!) Lying might be easier in the way that you don’t need to confront yourself with what is really going on, some people remain in a state...
Anything could happen
Dear Saar, I wonder what is harder: being honest, or lying. At least I know that it was easier to be honest in our conversation – and that it would bring me further. It is amazing, the knowledge you already have, only half a year into studying nutrition. It’s only natural that we’re not in...
Dear Petra,
It sure has been a while since we’ve spoken. I believe our last, real and deep talk was some weeks ago on Skype. As I was working on building you a protocol to – hopefully – support you to reach your health goals, we talked about everything; from your birth to the previous day, the...
