A room in which a birth takes place is often not easily forgotten. Most of you readers who have given birth might remember the rooms vividly, those rooms where our children saw the light for the first time. I know I do. It was an old farmhouse near Utrecht for our firstborn.

How a Rule of Life Brings Peace in the Hectic Pace of Life
In our overcrowded modern life, we have to keep a lot of balls in the air: work, family, church or volunteer work, a social life, hobbies, and so on.

Period. The art of wrapping up
Today, we put an end to the 7 week mini course HOLD ON., a holistic rule of life to make the hectic pace of everyday life manageable by implementing elements from monasticism.
I won’t keep you long. In a word, this last lesson is about evaluation. Examine. Look back. Are you satisfied? What could be done differently or better another time? What am I doing, why am I in this world? And so you shape and refine your rule of life and start again next time.

How to live a Holistic life in 2023 #Ruleoflife
At the beginning of the year, I promised you to send you a quarterly email to take you along with the Rule of Life. It’s nearly the end of the first three months of the year, the end of March. Did I write at the beginning of the year: “not sure if you had them—a few good intentions for 2023.” By now you probably even do not remember your good intentions! No worries! Research shows that behavioral change is not easy.
