Mindfulness became a trendy word in the past decade or so. What does being mindful actually mean? It relates to being thoughtful, aware and present.

“Life begins outside of your comfort zone!” is written in my notebook as a daily reminder. It’s easy to get stuck inside a bubble where everything is familiar and to leave this comfortable space I need trust. Trust in myself, trust in others and trust in the Universe.
