Hi, I’m Karo.

I started this community in January 2021 to share how mindfulness has transformed my life.

I am originally from Leipzig, Germany but live in Stockholm, Sweden.

Before that, I lived in China for 5 years and traveled around the world for over a year — which truly was the best time of my life. 🌎

Since I left my home in Leipzig 8 years ago, I made a full 180-degree change.

I went from

• passive receiver ➡️ active creator of my life
• shopping victim ➡️ minimalist
• meat lover ➡️ plant-based
• completely unconscious ➡️ mostly conscious
• cynical ➡️ truly content and happy
• mindless consumer ➡️ low-waste and conscious living

(If you scroll down far enough in my Insta account you can see my transformation.)

I needed to move to the other side of the world to recognize how I was living my life made me miserable.

When I connected with my authentic self, I turned back into who I truly was: kind, compassionate, and happy.

I am still far away from being 100% conscious, but mindfulness has changed my life and I want to share everything I learned and will learn with you to make this world just a little bit kinder, happier, and more compassionate. ❤️✨

If you have any questions or just want to connect, please feel free to leave a comment, or send me a DM on Instagram or Twitter. I love hearing from you.

Thank you for being on this journey with me.
