Brain waves play a crucial role in our state of consciousness - from deep relaxation and sleep to peak moments of clarity and focus. Brain waves can be measured as well as influenced. Meditation can direct these waves in subtle but powerful ways, allowing you to experience more balance and relaxation. But did you know that these frequencies exist not only in our brains, but all around us? From the groundbreaking discoveries of Cade and Coxhead to the mystery of the Schumann frequency, in this blog we dive deeper into the fascinating interplay between meditation, brain waves and the resonance of the earth.

What are brain waves?

Brain waves are electrical signals created when nerve cells (neurons) in the brain communicate with each other. These waves have different frequencies, which are often measured using an electroencephalogram (EEG). Depending on the frequency of brain waves, we can identify different mental states, such as relaxation, concentration, sleep

Every winter they pop up: colds, flu waves and viruses that seem to spread at lightning speed. Yet something strange is going on. If illness really is caused only by viruses floating around - as Louis Pasteur's famous theory suggests - why doesn't everyone get sick? Why do some remain in perfect health while others lie in bed for days? Interestingly enough, in Pasteur's time there was another scientist, Antoine Béchamp, who thought very differently. His ideas have been largely forgotten, but perhaps it is time to re-examine them....

Louis Pasteur and his germ theory

Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) was a French chemist and biologist with an insatiable curiosity about nature. He originally engaged in crystallography, but soon his focus shifted to microbiology.

Crystallography is the science that deals with the structure and properties of

Imagine you’re driving down the highway, relaxed, when suddenly a car swerves into your lane. Your body reacts instantly—your heart races, your muscles tense, and your breathing becomes shallow. This is the well-known fight-or-flight response, an ancient survival mechanism designed to protect you.

What happens in your body at that moment? Your adrenal glands release adrenaline and cortisol, increasing your alertness and reaction speed. Your blood pressure rises, pushing oxygen and energy to your muscles. Digestion is put on hold since it’s not a priority in a moment of danger. Your immune system slows down because energy is needed elsewhere. Reproductive function and libido decrease—reproduction isn’t important when survival is at stake.

Normally, when the danger passes, your body resets, and all systems return to normal. But what happens when this stress response never turns off?

From Acute to Chroni

The new year has begun, but instead of carrying out good resolutions with fresh energy, many people actually feel tired, lethargic and more prone to illnesses. What makes the beginning of the year such a challenging month for our health? In this blog, we first dive into the causes behind this winter fatigue and find out what you can do to boost your energy. Read on and be surprised by helpful tips and insights that will help you get through these cold months!

The impact of December on your health

Many people experience a period of excess in December: eating heavy meals, drinking alcohol, lack of exercise due to the cold, and skipping adequate rest can have a direct impact on your energy levels and overall health. As a result, the busy December month can take its toll on your body and mind and cause decreased immunity.

At the end of January often comes irrevocably the day called “Blue Monday,” aka the most depressing day of the year. The revelry is ove

We live in a time when anger and fear dominate. From wars fueled by religious or historical tensions to societal unrest about leadership, policies, and the future of our planet. Think of the COVID-19 pandemic, where proponents and opponents were fiercely divided, or the climate debate, which has polarized those who believe in human impact versus those who suspect economic or political motives. This ongoing polarization not only leaves deep marks on our society but also on our bodies. What does this emotional turmoil do to our physical well-being? We explore how anger and fear impact our health through different perspectives.

Psychosomatics: The Physical Manifestation of Emotions

Modern medicine acknowledges that emotions like anger and fear directly impact our bodies. Chronic stress caused by societal tensions activates the sympathetic nervous system, keeping the body in a constant “fight-or-flight” mode. Heart rate accelerates, blood pre

Electromagnetic radiation is all around us and comes from the sun, the earth and from devices we use every day, such as cell phones, tablets and WiFi routers. While these technologies make our lives easier and connected, the constant exposure to electromagnetic radiation is raising more and more questions about possible effects on our health. In this blog, we explore what exactly electromagnetic radiation is, how we interact with it, and what the current scientific understanding is about its potential impact on our well-being. We also pay attention to technological innovations to reduce the impact of radiation.

Definition of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMS)

Electromagnetic radiation (EMS) is a form of energy that travels through space in the form of waves, without the need for a physical medium such as air or water. It consists of electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to each other and move together. EMS occurs in different forms, such as radio waves,

Sleep plays a crucial role in our physical and mental health, but more and more people are struggling to get a good night's sleep. Instead of relying solely on sleep medication, there is growing interest in holistic approaches to sleep improvement. These methods focus on restoring balance throughout the body through lifestyle changes, nutrition, exercise and mindfulness. In this blog, we discuss several holistic strategies that can help you sleep better and experience deeper, more restorative rest.

Nutrients that Promote Sleep

Nutrition plays an important role in the quality of your sleep. Certain nutrients can help relax your body and stimulate the production of sleep-promoting hormones.

Magnesium, for example, is a mineral that helps relax muscles and regulate melatonin, the hormone that regulates your sleep-wake cycle.

In our modern, hectic world, stress seems inevitable. From deadlines and personal obligations to dealing with major life changes, our bodies are constantly exposed to various forms of stress. Fortunately, nature offers a solution: adaptogens. These powerful, natural substances from plants and mushrooms are known for their ability to help the body cope with stress and restore balance.

We also describe some of these substances.

What are Adaptogens

Adaptogens are substances, usually derived from plants or herbs and mushrooms, that help the body adapt to stress and maintain homeostasis (balance). The origin of the use of adaptogens goes back to ancient traditional healing systems, especially in
