Sphere Of Silence

Many good things handpicked for you

You loved the first edition, so here we go again—welcome to the méli-mélo #02, Sphere Of Silence edition.

My 'Sphere Of Silence' is the sacred time I dedicate every morning to consciously call in the best day of my life. You've heard it before, but everything is a choice—our thoughts, actions, and words shape our reality, and taking this time for myself has been paying off tremendously…

Here's my own Sphere Of Silence formula:

Morning Pages + Meditation + Movement + Matcha = welcome to the best day of my life!

More than mere activities, it's a mood I set, a series of rituals for my body, mind & soul. It's the matcha I drink, the pages I write, the meditation and movement I practice, the comfy clothes I wear—it's me tuning in my frequency, slowing down to the speed of love.

What’s your Sphere Of Silence?

Take a few minutes to figure out your own formula. It helps to reflect & project into how we want to feel.

Inside the circle: write down all the things, thoughts, people, activities, feelings, etc. that truly make you feel good (not what you think you should be doing, but what TRULY makes you feel good): what expands you.

Outside of the circle: be ruthlessly honest with yourself, and write down all the things, thoughts, people, activities, feelings, etc. that create tension for you, that make you feel restricted, tensed, contracted, triggered: what shrinks you.

Welcome to the best day of your life.

How does it feel? How do you feel? Who are you being? What are you doing? What are you grateful for at the end of the day? Describe those 24-hour in details.

What’s the inner state you’re seeking, beyond any external “things”?

Figure out your ideal Sphere Of Silence formula: it’s how you’d start your day in order to create a really great day for yourself, when you feel energized, expanded, and fulfilled.

Style Edit “Feel good = do good”

Every morning, I “dress for success”. This is what I usually wear — mix & match those items with what you already have in your own wardrobe that make you feel fabulous. The ultimate radiance comes out when we feel like ourselves, when we feel comfortable — here are my takeaways on the “Sphere Of Silence Style Edit”. Can you spot my go-to candle, incense, journal, and hand balm in the mix?

I linked everything down below.

The perfect cable-knit sweater 100% wool (119€, also in off-white), size down — oversized t-shirt in light cream, organic cotton (65€) — organic cotton trousers, size up for a slouchy fit, it has pockets! (125€, alternative as a cotton cargo pants vibes for 360€) — silk scrunchies (duo 12€, also in black) — my favorite candle when I don’t have my own fireplace (58€ cheaper than logs of wood, somehow) — golden socks you can also use for the festive season (9€, it’s a no brainer) — my favorite shoes: velvet maryjane shoes (94€, many colors available)
