The firewood proof-of-work in broad daylight. This year's pruning. It may not look like much. But this will carry us through an entire heating season (Dec-May). It works because our tiny house is well insulated, has big windows facing south, and temperatures in our region don't really go below 0°. But we have crazy winds. The sunlight heats up the house sufficiently during the day and then only in the night we burn a few sticks in the woodstove. That's it. I get salty when I read about EU regulations for sustainability (!) that try to cancel the use of wood-firing stoves. In the cities it's a different story with that local pollution in densely populated areas. But in the countryside, it doesn't get more sustainable than heating with firewood! If you have an efficient system ... and an olive grove 😁
GM β˜€οΈ There are many things I love about off-grid life and living away in pure nature. And this one in particular brings me deep joy: It's the freedom of doing whatever the heck you want at any given time. Last night, from 22h-24h, I felt it, I just wanted to continue cutting firewood from this year's tree pruning. The moon - a lovely crescent sitting right up there with bright Jupiter or Venus. I turned on Silverchair's "Diorama" which lyrics I happen to know by hard. And so I was there, red torch light, sawing the wood by hand and singing along wholeheartedly with Daniel Johns. Dogs and cats around me. View on the sea and valley. After that brushing teeth naked on the deck. Nobody cares. You live. Priceless moments! Life is so rich. Keep your eyes and heart open πŸ™πŸΌ image
An incredible day at the Spartan Yoga Shala! I'm deeply grateful to every participant who showed up with an open mind and courageous heart to explore the Wim Hof Method fundamentals. Watching people face the ice bathβ€”some managing arthritis, Raynaud's, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune challengesβ€”and emerge more powerful, energized, and optimistic is really inspiring. Everybody showed up for themselves with bravery. The Spartan Yoga Shala is such a warm, welcoming space for breathwork, intention, and cold. The rooftop ice baths with views of the snow-capped Taygetos mountains were the perfect backdrop! My hope is that everybody carries this practice home with themβ€”not just the techniques, but that feeling of self-empowerment, that knowing that you're capable of more than you thought. #wimhof #healthstr #coldtherapy #sparta #greece #breathwork #innerfreedom
It's so pretty and peaceful at our farm and house these days. No strong winds since more than a week. The wild oats and wheat in the olive grove are drying up. The thistles are blooming purple. A few more days and I gotta clean the field unfortunately. Can't make it too easy for the wild fires ;)
I'm continuing to explore Nostr's capabilities to be a YouTube alternative. There are two potential clients that get the job done: "Nostube" and "Plebs". Both are desktop-only clients at the moment. They look nice enough and are easy to navigate. Needless to say that content is still missing. I do not self-host my videos. This is mainly because we live off-grid in a tiny home with patchy internet connection. I want to change that soonest. But since this will be the default for many new people coming to Nostr, it's nice to see how this can work. My Nostr webspace is running on Primal and Nostr.Build subscription. There's lots of room to optimize this with the relay management etc. ... but I didn't have to energy to look into it further. It works for now. I do like the uploader and navigation on "Plebs", but for some reason it gave me an error when loading my latest 16-minute video. So, I tried "Nostube" which had no problem with it. "Nostube" also shows all my uploaded videos in a nicely organized fashion. "Plebs" on the other hand is a bit selfish and only shows videos I uploaded with "Plebs". I also cannot find Nostr profiles for "Plebs" nor "Nostube". If you do, please share! So, as usual, Nostr gives you these mild headaches when you just want to get your things done ... and you stumble upon all this little weirdness that steals your time. BUT after all, it kinda works and I was able to share on the legacy socials that my video is also available on Nostr πŸ€™πŸΌ You can check out my 15-minute guided Wim Hof breathing session here on "Nostube". Yes, the link is long and ugly. There's no option to retrieve an embedding or NoteID or something like that:
I just went on a stroll on LinkedIn after I hadn't accessed it for about 6 years. In my previous 'career' in the UN environment sphere, at times it was helpful to keep professional connections there. But oh boy, I didn't expect that I can still be shocked by what's floating around and going on there. Nothing changed. To imagine that most of this corporate, dogmatic, moralistic style and attitude is still in the political and economic driver's seat today ... jeez! I'm so grateful to be in the place where I am now and doing the work I'm doing. But in these moments I feel like I can't work fast enough πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
