Líderes post-pandémicos

La pandemia del Covid – 19 ha supuesto una crisis que ha sacudido los cimientos sociales y económicos en los que varias generaciones se habían asentado. El comercio ha quedado paralizado, el ocio prácticamente aniquilado, y las libertades personales muy reducidas. En resumen, ha sido un proceso traumático para toda la sociedad. En cuanto al …

“Slacktivism” and how I chose it for a better world

Welcome again to my humble blog. Today I want to talk to you about a new concept I discovered not too long ago and left me very concerned. This is Slacktivism. The definition offered by Wikipedia says: Slacktivism (a portmanteau of slacker and activism) is a pejorative term for the practice of supporting a political or social cause by means such …

Why do we need a wilder world

I started this blog with the purpose to learn and then write about a subject that interested me greatly, and that is wellbeing. But also, my approach to wellbeing is a holistic one. We are people and, indeed, inside us, there is a rich universe on its own. But, we are also animals that roam …

31 days just for you

For weeks I've been feeling a lump in the pit of my stomach. It comes and goes but I notice it especially when I'm doing unpleasant tasks like doing the dishes. I recognise the feeling: stress. But, why? This is a puzzling question for me. I've been working hard on shaping my mindset with my therapist help …

Misinformation: the new global pandemic

I think this year we have all heard this term: misinformation.

My 5 mistakes when trying to slow down

Last week I experienced a particularly stressful episode. Not for anything in particular, it happens to me from time to time. I feel this ball of nerves in the centre of my chest.

Minimalism: The Minimalists

This has been one of my greatest discoverings of this pandemic. Minimalism, and more precisely, The Minimalists. First of all, let's define what Minimalism is for me. For some, it might be just an aesthetic, an art style, for others might be a whole lifestyle. I didn't have a particular idea for what Minimalism was …

Insecurity: We are not alone

I came to this blog post to present one thought I had when I was an adolescent: "I felt insecure". When I reached adulthood, I understood I wasn't the only one feeling that way. This is the essence of this post but as I started typing the title I thought: "What is the value of …
