Perfectionism often wears the mask of ambition, but beneath it lies stress, self-criticism, and the activation of our body’s fight-or-flight response. This blog explores why perfectionism is not a path to growth, but a trigger for tension and burnout — and how embracing lightness instead can bring resilience, presence, and joy. Grounded in science and enriched with mindfulness practices, it offers both reflection and practical tools, including the “Pause & Breathe” ritual and the “70% Rule”. As summer fades into autumn, this is an invitation to let go of the weight of perfection and step into a lighter, more graceful way of being.

In my blog post "The Art of Patience: How Mindfulness Has Improved My Wellbeing," I share my experiences of how patience and mindfulness have transformed my life. I used to be very focused on speed, but this year, I realized that it's also important to let go and allow things to unfold at my own pace. Studies show that patient people experience less stress and are more satisfied, and I’ve found that mindfulness helps me become calmer and more balanced. The journey to patience is still ongoing for me, but I’m discovering more and more how valuable it is to truly appreciate the moment.

To truly enjoy the small, precious moments of life, we should turn off the "autopilot" and consciously live in the here and now. Mindfulness means perceiving the present with curiosity and kindness, accepting it without judgment. Through mindful attention in everyday situations, we can achieve lasting contentment and deeper fulfillment. Learn more about what it means to cultivate mindfulness in order to lead a richer and happier life all year round.

Wellness ist mehr als nur ein Modewort und oft wird es mit Massagen, einem Spabereich oder Körperbehandlungen assoziiert. Jedoch ist Wellness viel mehr als das und geht tatsächlich einen Schritt tiefer. Wellness ist eine Lebenseinstellung, ein Lebensstil, der darauf ausgerichtet ist, unsere Gesundheit und unser Wohlbefinden zu verbessern und zu optimieren.
