Buckle up… we’re in for a ride. 🎢
Here are the journal entries that I posted on my Instagram profile about how Access Consciousness is expanding my Universe. So beyond grateful for choosing this. Enjoy!
MAY 18, 2019
I listened to a cool audiobook, had some reflection time, and found the perfect shell on the beach. I guess the Universe is working its magic ✨

“The wings of transformation are born of patience and struggle.” ✨
I’m learning to navigate the ups and downs of life every day, be kinder, more compassionate and judgement-free (towards myself, others, the world, etc), and much more. Some days it’s easier and others is harder, but I like to push through, be patient, and work towards growth and a better version of myself.

“Sunsets on the beach are better than anything else. I’m absolutely obsessed with the colors, the water, the wind, the boats, the shells on the beach, the people, the music… I love being in beautiful places because it reminds me of how in love I am with the world. Oh, how lucky I am!! How does it get better than this? What else is possible? How can I learn how to love more and to create more? How can I celebrate my life and my body more? What else can show up? I can’t wait to see what the Universe has in store for me!”

Turquoise water and cotton candy clouds at Lake Bacalar…
☁️
Totally in love with the stillness, quietness, and beauty of this cute, little town and lake. It was honestly exactly what I needed at that moment. I was quite tired of the busy city life and I needed to stop somewhere to take a breath…
So here I was, on my second day in Bacalar, after working on my laptop for 9 hours. When I got the first glimpse of the water I thought “OMG, did someone surround me with a green screen and projected an image of a Windows desktop? How is this even real?”, and went for a swim the next second.
Never underestimate the healing power of water. I was floating and swimming and listening to it, to the wind, to the waves. I knew it was talking to me and all I had to do was listen. Such a beautiful moment of being present with the sky, the clouds, the fish, mama nature, the Earth, and myself. I felt how we are all connected and we are all one!
I feel so grateful and blessed for these special moments of just being, listening, and receiving. How does it get better than this?
JULY 6, 2019
For a long time, the only thing I wished was to simply BE HAPPY. But somehow this feeling seemed so hard to reach and mostly, keep! I would get wind up in all the little details, fears, expectations, and judgements, of myself and others. Over-thinking and becoming a victim of depression and anxiety. Obviously, we all have those days, but what happens when those days become your day-to-day life?
That was me a while ago. I used to blame it on my job, my surroundings, my town, my love life, and so on… and the wheel of shame and blame would never stop turning.
Until one day I realized that all I had to do was to look inside. To have deep conversations with myself and make sure that I knew that my perspective creates my reality, not the other way around.
Today, this is my dearest project. My personal journey to self-love and happiness ✨
JULY 11, 2019
I wish I could meet my 16-20-year-old self, give her a hug and tell her how beautiful she was, is, and always will be. To tell her that there’s nothing more important than self-acceptance and self-love.
What’s more powerful than choosing the total bliss of being grateful for your healthy body, flawed face, unique style, messy hair, and beautiful soul? And how can you start making the decision to be and look the way YOU want? You are in charge of your reality, not the other way around.

✨Everything is the opposite of what it appears to be and nothing is the opposite of what it appears to be✨
JULY 19, 2019
While living in New York most days I’m at home working, studying, cooking, reflecting, or reading. Other days I go out to meet my friends and family or attend a class or an event, walk around the neighborhood, visit a museum, and of course, get amazed by all the spectacular views New York has to offer.
Often times I take this opportunity for granted, by choosing to be in a passive state of tiredness or stress, and as a result, I end up living in the future or the past. I realized that is my hiding mechanism. As soon as something gets hard and challenging and it would be time to fight and hassle, I’m scared that I’ll fail, be rejected, be laughed at, disappoint myself or others, and so on. So, instead of trying, failing, and learning from these mistakes, I’m hiding. Running and hiding.
What if that wasn’t an option anymore? What would it take to learn to face and love both success and failure? How can I invite more opportunities in my life? And what else is possible?
JULY 20, 2019
✨ Abundance ✨
Of plants, thoughts, creations, friends, fruits, fresh air, green nature, inspiration, lessons, motivation, work, projects, collaborations, time, music, little seaside towns, mountains, fish swimming freely in the ocean, animals running in the woods, salads, concerts, books, dreams …and what else is possible?
I’m so grateful to have the possibility to experience this beautiful world and its incredible creations! In 10 days I’m flying to Medellin, Colombia, where I will be based for 6 months 💞
I couldn’t be more excited! Universe, what else do you have in store for me? ✨
JULY 21, 2019
When nothing goes right…turn left.
What if everything is just an interesting point of view? What if instead of going into judgement, agreement, and knowing we would turn to wonder and excitement? Can you imagine how much would that create?
I find myself struggling with environmental issues and gather frustrations when seeing the facts about the increasing degradation of our Planet. But I have to remind myself that we are all doing the best we can, and the one great way to change things is with the powers of EXAMPLE and information! And always keep a positive and optimistic mindset, of course.
Change is coming. We’re waking up. How can we heal the Earth and Ourselves? 🌳
JULY 22, 2019
Visited my first submarine and it was so interesting to see how those people lived in such a small contained space for even up to 2 months.
That got me thinking…How many little spaces, boxes, ideas, or limiting beliefs do we live in for years and years, if not our whole lives? When is the time to start thinking for ourselves, not our friends, family, colleagues, the internet, or other people in our lives?
JULY 26, 2019
What if we would start eating with consciousness and intuition? What if we would take time to prepare our own food from whole based sources, and take a few minutes for each meal to fully enjoy each bite, taste, texture, and smell?
JULY 27, 2019
here I am swimming in the ocean of infinite possibilities
what else is possible
what would it take to break all the walls and bring all the barriers down
what would it take to stop hiding
how can I be more active in my life
what can I create and bring to life in the world
how can I support others in their journeys
what would it take to start CHOOSING
and what else can show up?
dear Universe, surprise me ✨
JULY 30, 2019
The dozen sunsets over Manhattan, 2 wonderful classes of Access Bars, a beautiful collaboration with my first Access Bars Facilitator and dear friend, Josa Goodlife, my first Broadway musical, walking the Brooklyn Bridge, taking the ferry on the East River, and literally waking up every day in Brooklyn and experiencing this vibrant city as a local has made my stay here more than memorable.

✨gifting and receiving✨
If you want to start erasing all that 💩 from your mind and soul, I recommend looking into Access Consciousness. It’s not easy, it’s not a cure for all, it’s not a 100% game-changer. You’ve got to put in the work and the “rewards” will come. My favorite metaphor from the course/book is that we have two angels flying above our heads with a treasure full of gold, and money, and glitter, and adventures, and glory. They would love to hand it to us, but they are waiting for us to say “C’mon angels, give it to me! I’m ready! Show me what’s possible!” … And so they wait and wait and beg us to ASK to Receive!
truly…What else is possible? (try asking this question every day and be open to anything that might show up) ✨🚪📖💘
Also… I launched my blog the other day. So exciting! I’ve wanted to have a blog since I can remember.
SEPTEMBER 5, 2019
I feel like I sound like a broken record but I’m so frickin happy to be HERE right NOW!! 💃
True story: 2 years ago, just before I started my travels (in October 2017 to be specific), Martin (my boyfriend) and I watched the documentary Colombia Magia Salvaje and I fell in love with this amazing country right there and then. And at the end of the documentary, I simply started to cry thinking that “I will never get there!! It’s on the other side of the planet!! It’s sooo far and the flights are soo expensive 😭”
Nevertheless, I fell in love with the abundance and nature and colors and birds and animals and pretty much everything from the forests to the Amazon. Everything.
Fast forward to July 2019 when we decided to move to Medellin for the next half a year… Dudes I’m telling you. Manifestation is REAL. Make a list, a journal entry, a drawing, a photo, whatever works for you, and think about it every day. Your dream WILL come true. No doubt. Start asking cause the Universe is waiting to gift you your wildest dreams. ✨
SEPTEMBER 22, 2019
I decided to stop ignoring my dreams and start taking down the curtain of fear and excuses. I decided to honor my passion by committing to serving it every day, not by being a perfectionist, but by being a doer, a creator, an artist, a writer, and more…
NOVEMBER 4, 2019
What a truly special and life-changing CHOICE of going out of judgement and conclusion and into the total ease and freedom of simply BEING!! My third Access Bars class was a gift from the Universe and I couldn’t be happier and more grateful! How did I get so lucky?
Dears Deby Korn, Josa Goodlife, and Lorena Vlasin thank you for being my absolute inspiration and change fairies 🧚
Next stop: more choice, more happiness, more running bars, becoming a Bars Facilitator, less polarity, more light. Bring it on baby!! How does it get any better than this??
FEBRUARY 9, 2020
That moment when you realize how questions, possibilities, and choices will light up your world.
How does it get any better than that?
FEBRUARY 10, 2020
Just graduated from my first Foundation Class. Nothing else to say than “Universe, bring it on!”
Next stop -> Bars Facilitator ✨
FEBRUARY 15, 2020
Hahahah so funny how our minds play tricks on us to keep us little and scared…but f*$k that… In the end, I jumped without thinking and I instantly felt pure happiness and joy on such high frequency that I couldn’t contain the laughter inside.
The moral of the story: stop listening to the overthinking mind, go to the Amazon (or to the nearest park with a body of water), witness its magic, and feel grateful for being part of this beautiful Universe. 🌲🌳🌴

My dearest friends! Today I received my Bars Facilitator diploma through the mail, so I felt that my first class wants to be invited into the world ✨
What infinite magic and possibilities can we create together with this class? 🙏
FEBRUARY 23, 2020
What space, awareness, and consciousness can you be to break through the walls of fear you built, the hiding mechanism you created, the limiting patterns you believe and took as justifications and excuses not acknowledge your greatness…
Everything that is will you destroy and uncreate it all? ✨
MARCH 13, 2020
My friends, how are you feeling today? Are you aware of the blessing and contribution YOU are to this Planet?
Please remember to go on with your beautiful lives and see all of this as a transformation, a new chapter, and an opportunity to focus on your well-being, health, and mindfulness.
When is the last time you were able to work from home, nurture your sweet body with yummy home-cooked foods, and spend time with your loved ones?
How does it get any better than this? Stay happy and peaceful 🧘♀️
A Big Fat YES from me ✋
…what about you?

“I had a dream.
I had a dream that all the beings of the air, earth, and water were living in never-ending abundance…
I had a dream that generosity, kindness, and contribution were the dominant energies on the planet Earth. 🧚🏼♀️
I have no longer a dream, I have a demand – I am creating this as my reality! No matter what! 🌿
And I have demanded that all the energies who wish to contribute to this are more than welcome, jump in, I cherish YOU! 🌺
All other energies b-bye!
Let’s do this thing! Let’s play!
Bring on your sweet demand and join me 🥰
❣️” – Milena Maravić

On New Year’s Eve, I attended a wonderful retreat at Aloha Retreat Colombia. My experience there helped me start my journey to emotional healing, face and slay my demons, and start practicing true and authentic self-love…
This week has been one of the most difficult ones in a while. I felt stuck, trapped, and imprisoned, not only physically at home, but in my own mind (a place you can never escape or hide from). So yesterday I felt the need to create something beautiful, to remind myself of the pureness of the Earth, the magic of a simple life, waking up around tall mountains, colorful nature, and like-minded souls.
And I put together some videos with the perfect and dreamy landscapes of Colombia, a country very dear to my heart. 🌴
I hope that it takes you far far away, so far away that you arrive closer to yourself and feel the love and connection surrounding us, everywhere 🌠

I woke up feeling heavy and lazy. I opened the curtains and saw the sun shining shamelessly outside, with no judgements or agendas.
And I asked: what would it take for me to shine as bright as the sun, and to bring the rays of consciousness and awareness all around me?
What would it take for all of us to do that? To grow wings of choices and possibilities and to get out of lies, news, fears, and other people’s points of view.
Are you acknowledging the gift of happiness and joy that you are in the world? Yes or no?
I am. And I’m feeling full of life, ideas, creations, and questions! How does it get any betteeeer?
APRIL 10, 2020
Body, I love you for your health and strength.
Mind, I love you for your creativity and intuitive wisdom.
Soul, I love you for your light and love.
What a beautiful gift life is. My feet have walked such wonders, my hands have touched wonderful miracles, my smile met so many hearts, and the best is yet to come!
Universe, you never stop showing me the beauty and abundance of my being on this Earth. Thank you thank you thank you! I’m willing to receive it all…and more than all… 🌠
And now I am blessed with the gift of organizing my first online class. Who wants to join me? 🌅
APRIL 16, 2020
A memory I hold very closely to my heart is having picnic in the rain and watching the birds fly above the mountains in Indonesia. Yesterday I was watching the sunset over the nearby park and I remembered the purple-pink sunset sky of Jogjakarta. How lucky are we humans to witness the beauty and simplicity of Earth?
These times are weird, and although we are uncertain of what will happen next, one thing we know for sure. When all of this will be over, we will admire more gorgeous sunsets, dance on the beach, walk in the forest, breathe fresh air, and hug one another.
I can’t wait!
APRIL 23, 2020
Whenever I feel down, uninspired, alone, and heavy, firstly I return it to sender with consciousness attached to make sure I’m not aware of anyone else’s crap, secondly I go through my favorite memories while listening to my favorite songs. That reminds me that there are adventures to be had, fun and laughter with my best friends, countries to visit and oceans to dive in.
I’m gonna be honest, the last 2 weeks weren’t all light, easy, and fun. My life plans completely changed upside down 🙃 and I had to mentally deal with that (haha like the rest of the world, so much fun lol 😆). Luckily I have the tools and means to adapt and to be able to create from it, not find reasons to give up.
I need to learn to enjoy life at home as if I was on a boat in Bali. What would it take? 🤣
APRIL 24, 2020
I remember that day last year when I sat on the beach until the sunset, reading my favorite book “Being you and changing the world” by Dr. Dain Heer, played with shells in the sand, and watched cool kite surfers like Martin enjoy the waves.
Wow. Newsflash: just being YOU is enough. hahahaha
How does it get yummier and more delicious than that?
JULY 6, 2020
Finally acknowledging ME. Not as a separation, but as WE and part of oneness – and it feels so good to create from a place of having fun and joy in my life and not trying to “inspire” or “show” or “convince” or anything. 😝
Everywhere you were taught and you bought that you have to create drama, trauma, fear, judgement, pain, suffering, emotional distress in your life, to belong to this reality, it’s time to destroy and uncreate.
We are on a new track, it’s a new reality altogether. Are you joining the fun or deciding to be stuck in old ways of past, conclusions, and lots and lots and lots of opinions about everything and everyone?
What yuck are you inventing to create the limited reality you’re choosing?
SEPTEMBER 21, 2020
“What if today could be the beginning of something different? What if your life could be more enjoyable again? What if you were having too much fun to notice when people judge you?
We learned so early in our lives that judging ourselves was the appropriate thing to do and that that was how to be in the world. What if judging you is the most unkind thing you’ve ever done to you? Yet you keep doing it.
This wonderful tool called “Access Bars” starts dissolving it from within.
Once your mind is out of the way, you the being are free to play.” 🤸♀️
– from the Access Bars manual
Access Bars brought me back to myself. It returned me to the curious, adventurous, loving, and caring child that would spend hours imaging different planets and playing with magic. Way before the standards and rules of this society started programming me on how I should behave, to not stand out, and just blend in. So I started hiding myself to not be judged for being weird and end up alone. The fear of being unloved started eating me alive, so I created tons of hiding mechanisms to not be discovered for who I truly was. But eventually, living in a lie, playing the roles of a person who I wasn’t, consumed me and I ended up a bitter, frustrated, and angry 22 year old feeling like my life is being wasted away. “Damn it, is this what life should be like? I’ve traveled the world and I’m still miserable. I left my hometown and I’m still miserable. I’m surrounded by amazing people but the ghosts of the past are still following me around!!” Yep, that’s cause I kept hiding. Access gave me the tools to break free from this pattern of self hatred and judgement, and to embrace my crazy weirdo self. To start showing up in my life. To know that I’d rather be myself, alone, and weird, rather than someone else in a group of people I can’t stand.
It’s intense, uncomfortable, and most days I would rather just go back in my hiding cave so I don’t have to deal with the human reality and all the crap happening here. But nope. I’m choosing something else. I’m choosing me.
SEPTEMBER 22, 2020
What points of view do you have about receiving? That you have to gift or give something back? That nothing “good” comes for free? That you have to offer your time or something else in return? Etc…🤔
What if you could just receive.. from the Universe, from God, from the Earth, from nature, from the non human beings and the human beings, from the all surrounding energy that we all are. Sometimes I just go outside and I put my bare feet on the grass and receive the freshness and aliveness from the Earth. Try this little exercise and have fun with it. 🌴
When you open up your receiving you’ll be surprised what experiences and possibilities will arise…
Everything is possible my friends.

Running someone’s Bars…
What a gift! Let me tell you a little bit about a session.
It usually lasts around 60 minutes, in which the practitioner will gently touch 32 points on the head where we store the thoughts, feelings, emotions, points of view, fears, and limitations connected to certain aspects of our lives such as money, creativity, body, sexuality, joy, sadness, awareness, healing and more.
During the session we sometimes have deep discussions about challenges and struggles and find ways to overcome them with more ease, other times we laugh and have lots of joyful fun, other times we tell stories and get inspired, or sometimes we enter a deep state of relaxation (even sleep for the client).
I only noticed after my first Bars session how stiff my mind and body were. And with every time I got up after a session I felt more and more free to take action and start changing things in my life myself rather than waiting for something or someone to happen.
All the people that I ran their Bars for got a sense of ease and calmness during and after the session. Some said that many moving pieces have shifted in their lives after that hour. Others cried and released a lot of what they’ve locked away but was still affecting their lives from behind the scenes. And others got to sleep for a whole week after a long time of insomnia.
It’s individual, and it’s so beautiful to witness… What would it take for you to also choose a Bars session for yourself and see how it will expand your life?
What possibilities will it open up for you beyond this reality?
It doesn’t matter where you are in the world – if I’m not around I’ll connect you to another practitioner.
NOVEMBER 18, 2020
Are you the pilot or the passenger of your life?
Are you just watching and observing life happening to you, or are you willing to be in charge?
What if you would acknowledge that you have the infinite power to create anything in your life, by choosing and taking action?
Perceive how you’d like your life to be. Even if it’s beyond this reality.
Follow that energy.
🌟
