Vaken
Vaken – (awake)
A place that helps you to explore who and what you really are, beyond the noise. Conversations, tools such as meditations and exercises for anyone ready to listen inwards. The content is both in English and Swedish so that you can choose the most natural language for you.
About, and why!
Hi, my name is Rasmus Lindberg, a Global Brand Designer at a MedTech company. I've always worked with creativity and communication. I suppose that is what this is too in a sense.
But something changed, it was time for me to become awake (vaken). I started to listen, really listen, to my body, to my inner self, to my intuition and just listen generally. And things shifted!
My body told me to stop eating some things, to eat different times and avoid specific things. I also got some craving that turned out to support my journey.
I got sharper, calmer, stronger, lighter (lost 15kg in two weeks and 20 in total and that is just a side effect not a goal).
From building a cocktail bar to pouring out the whiskey one night as I could not make myself lift the glass to my mouth. After that, all the bottles might as well be cardboard. No interest at all.
Things started to flow, as if I moved with the current instead of against or across, and it's the right direction.
Things don't happen "to you", they happen "for you".
These are some of the things at the very start of it.
But I realised that it actually started way before as a 6-month-old. But that is too long a story to start this bio/about text with. ;)
As people have noticed my changes, they have approached me and I have been able to help them find their balance too. Now and it is time to widen that and offer what I can to all that finds this place and the concept of "Vaken".
I realise that we already have all the knowledge and all the tools and capabilities, we have just forgotten, built up layers on top of that blurring our vision making it hard to see what is actually there, all the time.
Let me share seeds that you can choose to plant and water. Let me give you tools you can use for your own growth. Even if it is just a little meditation or breathing exercise to help you start.
