Prynadiyi blog is suddenly seven years old, and I am the girl who survived thanks to it. I thank all the readers who have been with me all this time, and I’m also glad when the statistics grow – new readers appear. Sad or not, I hate algorithms and marketing, and I leave the fate…

Sometimes we get stuck, have no energy, lose hope, feel despair, do not know where to go next. That is why this blog is called Prynadiyi (‘with hope’). First of all, for me, writing a post means boosting my mood, because not only I summarize my thoughts and findings, but also do something small with…

Dedicated to the man who gave me an invaluable experience of accepted emotions and being heard I love to feel that whatever happens to me is just right and happens when it’s right, that I am in a context, and to understand what this context is. When every book that happens to be at hand,…

For a long time I wanted to make a list of books where women sincerely and beautifully write about women’s issues, pains, feministic things, healthy feminine and healthy masculine.

I didn’t want to be a woman for a long time, because it seemed that it was more profitable to be a man in this world. I could not accept myself as a mother for a long time, because I did not want to be a mother. For a long time I did not want…

Today was the first time I spoke Swedish in public (in Swedish class), and since the given topic affected me directly, I was the only one who actually spoke and didn’t read from a piece of paper: Astrid Lindgren. I never thought that I would live in this woman’s country, learn her language, try to…

Thanks to the book The Courage to be Disliked, I discovered Adler – the father of individual psychology. And read his The Science of Living. It resonated with me, especially considering that I have a background in psychoanalysis and integrative psychotherapy. This is heaven and earth. What if we are all not only under the…
