A stranger at home
The hardest part of living abroad? Well, sometimes it’s coming back. Instead of comforting, being back home can be frustrating, confusing and depressing, especially if you didn’t miss a single thing there. Obviously, everyone goes through it differently, and I’m quite an extreme example. Despite that – or maybe because of that – I want…

Voices October 2025
As the air grows cooler and the leaves begin to fall, I’m reminded that my time here is also slowly but surely coming to an end. Indeed, while it still does feel surreal to say it, I’ve been here for almost 11 months already. Living in Macedonia is something that I would have never believed…

Coastline thought
If you could capture one image that represents your view of the world today, what would it be and why? Is the world you see you? The image in our head that is created about the world upon our beliefs, is unique for each one of us. The initial step to get to know yourself…

Does it take just a little to be happy?
When was the last time you felt truly happy in your life? Maybe you will feel that is a deep question, maybe too deep to start an article, but actually, it can be really easy to answer. Maybe it was just taking a coffee with a friend, going for a walk in nature, travelling in…

Si e formëson muzika mendjen tonë
Muzika gjithmonë ka qenë diçka më shumë për mua sesa thjesht një tingull. Nuk është thjesht një zhurmë në sfond apo një hobi. Ndihem sikur jam pjesë e saj, duke formësuar mendjen time dhe mënyrën e të menduarit. Kur zgjohem, melodia e parë që dëgjoj mund të ndryshojë mënyrën se si rrjedhin orët e para…

How music shapes our minds
Music has always meant more to me than just sound. It isn’t just a background noise or a hobby. It feels like a part of who I am, shaping my mind and its thinking patterns. Waking up, the first melody I hear can change how the first hours of my day flow. When I feel…

A promise to my past self
Not too long ago, I received an email I was not expecting at all. Even though I knew I would have to face it sometime, it hit me out of the blue. Okay, not completely out of the blue but rather from one year back in time. It was a letter I had written for…

Psychotherapy at Home? A Holistic Approach for Inner Peace
In times when anxiety, stress, and uncertainty knock on every door, especially among young people, not everyone has access to a psychotherapist, nor do they always want to sit in front of someone and open their soul. But what if I told you that you don’t need to be in a therapist’s office to start…

Психотерапија дома? Холистички пристап за внатрешен мир
Во време кога анксиозноста, стресот и несигурноста чукаат на сечија врата, особено кај младите луѓе, не секој има пристап до психотерапевт, ниту, пак, секогаш сака да седне пред некого и да отвори душа. Ама, што ако ти кажам дека не мораш да бидеш во канцеларија со терапевт за да почнеш да се лекуваш одвнатре? Терапијата…

Follow the breath
Be mindful of the energy you bring into this space. This is the sign you see when you first enter the studio – a place where I was spending two hours a week for the past few months… and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Today, I’m taking you there with me…
