During the two weeks at Sisters Academy my alter ego will be The Spider. I stand for structure, organization and patterns. I am creative (the cobweb), quite private and good at writing and getting things done (eight legs). I can sometimes be almost invisible but my work is visible and effective. I am a teacher in Swedish and Swedish as a second language. English is not my favorite language, but…
The manifistation will be taking place in less than three weeks now. This will be a new experience that will make us grow. In what way? Nobody knows. At this point it sometimes feels like a uphill struggle to get the time to do things like this. Wright your thoughts. If we only hade more time and less to do we would al feel better. Maybe the sisters experience will give…
Questions might start a dialogue. Before starting to tell something, I find the questions that ask me to tell something. But then I realize than it is not only about the question, and it might be more about who we are, and what we give. Hereby I would like to give some words. But this words you, please, you read them out loud. Because it is how words started in our…
WHAT ARE HOLDING YOU BACK? WHY ARE YOU HOLDING BACK? ARE YOU HOLDING YOURSELF BACK? WHY? WHAT DO YOU WANT? WHAT DO YOU REALLY REALLY WANT? WHAT DO YOU REALLY REALLY WANT – IN LIFE? WHY? WHAT ARE TAMING YOU? WHO ARE TAMING YOU? DO YOU WANT TO BE UNTAMED? WHY! LET IT GO – MORE – LET IT OUT – MORE – FASTER – LET IT GO –…
My feet are walking because I’m telling them to do so. Or because I do so. I believe that our connection with the body is fundamental: Being embodied in the world in order to balance. When we separate body and mind, sit still for hours or days, energy stops flowing. Emotions get stuck somewhere and the body starts complaining, soon crying or screaming. Anxiety is such a thing that…
Hello, words come and words go. Feelings stay. They can be fed with love and affection, they can be kicked and left hungry for years, but they will always be true. When I was with you, I could feel, because you were true to yourself. You were so true, I hadn’t have to pretend. I could just be as I was without it needing to fit a certain form(at). It…
Fifty years ago cognitive science was born. It was an attempt to figure out what how the human mind works. The model they started with was the ”informationprocessing ”paradigm. The mind is like a computer. The senses record information , the brain process that information according to logical rules and finally give orders to our motorsystem to execute what the brain has processed. It was said that computers would become…

The last workshop is over. Number five. I was lucky to have the neighbouring group joining my group from the start because few people showed up. My colleague volunteered to take his students with him. Pre-liminally, the group was lined outside the door in the same way as the other days. I began the listening part while they were in the line with eyes closed. They were asked to spread…
The workshop is developing. (…) Today, two tables were placed staggered in the centre of the room. Writing stations on either side with blotter pads, paper, pen and different colour ink. On two other tables remaining along the wall, books and texts were laid out. Print out pages were omitted and only colour-bound books with silk ribbon bookmarks were available to read from. (…) Both of today’s workshops had an…
