Merry Christmas

Christmas Day

The Christmas chimes arepealing high

Beneath the solemn Christmassky,

And blowing winds their notesprolong

Like echoes from an angel'ssong;

Good will and peace, peaceand good will

Ring out the carols glad andgay,

Telling the heavenly messagestill

That Christ the Child wasborn to-day.

In lowly hut and palace hall

Peasant and king keepfestival,

And childhood wears a fairerguise,

And tenderer shine allmother-eyes;

The aged man forgets hisyears,

The mirthful heart is doublygay,

The sad are cheated of theirtears,

For Christ the Lord was bornto-day.

(Susan Coolidge)

Ich wünsche Ihnen ein gesegnetes Weihnachtsfest und ein schönes Neues Jahr!

I wish you all a peaceful Christmas time and a happy New Year!

Yours Constanze

Make a wish

2011-08-21T06:19:00.000-07:00

... but don't wonder or wanna a big portion of ice?

All my friends know, that I love to make expedition cruises, my favorite holiday destinations are the ice areas.

Those people, whom once stood in front of a glacier, will know this desire, it might even break off a big piece. Many times we made zodiac tours with Ms Hanseatic in front of fantastic glaciers. All the time this amazing views and all the time everybody have the same wish –a large portion of ice, please. So am I!

On my last trip expedition Norway around Spitsbergen. We made a zodiac trip in the bay in front of the Monaco glacier, which is about 40 m high. Small pieces are falling down from wall. When I checked the pics on my camera, a scream scared me. It was something like, "Oh God, now the hole wall is breaking down." Any questions for the force of thought desire?

By the way - I made wonderful pics, which you can see here.

My whole log, which I started in 2009 you can read here, please use Google translater, because I wrote all the logs from my trips in german.

So the conclusion of my journey is, when you make a wish, be mindful, because you never know, how your wishes come true.

Shamanism

Among the links in this blog you will find the explanations of Wikipedia and also links to other websites
Shamanism - Wikipedia engl.
Schamanismus - Wikipedia german

Shamanism comprises a range of traditional beliefs and practices concerned with communication with the spirit world. It is a prominent term in anthropological research. A practitioner of shamanism is known as a shaman.
There are many variations of shamanism throughout the world, but several common beliefs are shared by all forms of shamanism. Shamans are intermediaries between the human and spirit worlds. They can treat illness and are capable of entering supernatural realms to obtain answers to the problems of their community.
The Shamans act as "mediators" in their culture.
The way shamans get sustenance and take part in everyday life varies among cultures. In many Eskimo groups, they provide services for the community and get a "due payment" (some cultures believe the payment is given to the helping spirits), but these goods are only "welcome addenda."

On of the distinct types of shaman is Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales, he lives in the Peruvian Amazon jungle. Don Pedro is a descendent of an ancient healer family like his father before him (Don Jose Guerra). Pedro is a "Palero", a tree shaman.

In this blog I wrote 2009 august 3 rd about a project to reforest mediacal plants. On his side you can read, that since old times the people of the Amazon have lived without western medicine. And even today the western medicine is only accessible to a minority. On his website you can read more about the fantastic amazon area and the project, this link will show you the different medical trees. The amazon rainforest - lungs of our planet.

Your help is welcome!

As she realized that she would never be able to unite with him, she shed huge, yellow tears. These tears are the origin of the Amazon River. (Ancient Amazon myth)

The element water is a determinating factor in the myths and legends of the people who live on the Amazon. Many curanderos tell tales of mysterious under water worlds that may be visited both in the visions an in real life. It is told that the ancient magicians of the Amazon could live under water as long as they pleased. They lived in the underwater world with their water-wives, the "sirenas" or the "yacu-warmis" (yacu = water, warmi=woman). When they would return, after weeks or months, they would leave the river with dry clothes.

So it is told that Don Pedro's uncle, Don Eleuthenio Guerra, had these special powers. He was a "sumi". This is the title of the Amazon shamans that have the capacity of remaining under Water as long as they whish. He was married to two women, one of whom was a Yacuwarmi, a sirena of the Amazon River. At the age of 107 he took his leave and went to live with his sirena for good. The water-spirits are called by the curanderos during the ceremonies, by means of the icaros.

>> Hear an icaro against snake bites from Don Pedro

Informations about the world of the great mother of the water and more you will found on Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales. The shaman Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales lives in the Peruvian Amazon jungle. He is a descendent of an ancient healer family. Like his father before him (Don Jose Guerra), Pedro is a "Palero", a tree shaman.
Don Pedro Guerra Gonzales is one of the most renowned shamans of the Amazon.

Don't forget!
Don Pedro will return to Europe from April 28th to May 8th, 2011

Enough is enough

2011-03-18T07:36:00.000-07:00

Stop!

Lousy weather and so dissatisfaction with yourself and everyone.
I realize that I am unfair and it annoys me even more after that. It is so bad,

all the things are fallen me out of my hand and I run against every corner. :(

The world situation don't make me feeling happy too.

So what can I do?
My motto: Always live as if tomorrow is your last day! This fits really in the current situation.

Normally I love to hear music in such a situation, tea with chocolate flavor und a warm, harmonizing bath. But this bath only calmed down for this short moment and

it won't wiped out the cause.

It feels like hanging in a dead end.....

What is your focus?

2011-01-04T06:08:00.000-08:00

Have always time for a smile!

The days around the turn of the year are often packed full of wishes and dreams, with the formulation of goals and visions, often drawn to the smallest detail. For many of us it is definitely quite round in my head. I sometimes find myself here that remain out of sheer plan and objectives, formulating the fun and ease rather on the track. A Chinese proverb says: "Life is either mastered smiling - or not." How true is it!

Therefore I decided in 2011 to the following motto: Have always time for a smile!

- More smiles instead of brooding
- More pleasure instead of waiver
- More rest instead of restless
- More ease severity rather than

I sincerely hope that many join this motto, and that we can jointly take more life, more laughter and more ease in the world!

Why Rudolph have such a red nose??

2010-12-16T08:22:00.000-08:00

This song tells the tale of Santa Claus's ninth and lead reindeer, who possesses an unusually red-colored nose that gives off its own light, powerful enough to illuminate the team's path through inclement weather.

Read in wikipedia.

So....

The original eight reindeer!! You see it on the pic!! The Name Of The Reindeers are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner/Donder, Blitzen, and Rudolph The anonymously-published poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (also known as "The Night Before Christmas" or "Twas the Night Before Christmas") is largely credited for the contemporary Christmas lore, including the eight flying reindeer and their names.

How many reindeers???
I am confused!!

I think, poor Rudy has his red nose, because...

they are always flying in the wintertime and it is awful cold, shit pole position!!

Why Rudolph always wear a scarf, maybe better would be a nose warmer??

Have a wonderful and peaceful Christmas time everybody!!

Merry Christmas

2010-12-16T07:47:00.000-08:00

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas time.

This Big Reindeer

This big Reindeer must have run away
From Santa Claus and his Christmas sleigh.
Do you think if I should take him back
A present I would get out of Santa's pack?

Drunken??

Maybe too much mulled wine ?

Cheers :)

Whatever You Give to Life....

2010-09-01T06:20:00.001-07:00

Whatever you give to life, it gives you back!

Oh yes, how true ...

I am thinking for a special and funny book, my special booktip for you, written by David Safier:

Mieses Karma the book
Mieses Karma the audio cd

A funny german book tells the story from a successfully talk show lady:

Here ist the story...

Kim Lange, Germany's most important political talk show host, is to be awarded the German Television Award. After painful buttocks breakdown event between Wickert and Verona, the final crash will be swift. That of all the basin of a falling Russian space station cuts one of our most brilliant minds show is part of the humor of this novel program. But then: "The day I died, has not really enjoyed." Thank God! We breathe. The witty and sharp-tongued Kim lives on among us. And this may well be taken literally!

Gleaming light, life in the fast reverse, tunnel vision. As before. But then it gets difficult Kafkaesque. Six of leg? Round head? Extremely long antennae? Kim Lange hardly recognize again. She shrunk from the attractive lady to ordinary ant! Blame it on the evil karma. The great Buddha ants occurs in explanation and consoles do: Real bad guys, of the type of Hitler and Co., would have no intestinal bacteria reborn as penance. No real consolation for a reincarnated fresh. And off you go to forced labor in an ant hill, which reminds us of the fatal interior of the mother ship from 'Independence Day...

So, what can we do?

Remember the saying on the picture. Do not hate anybody....

Have a great day!

Do you speak Hamburg's slang?

2010-08-31T08:50:00.000-07:00

Every day in my newletter there are some
passages from a funny german book.

Title: Sprechen Sie hamburgerisch? :) (Do you speak Hamburg's slang?)

Today there was a totally funny saying

German: REIHERN

Means:
It could happenend, that sometimes the trip to Helgoland by ship (german island in the eastern sea) is not very comfortable. In this situation the passengers move to the railing, bow forward ( when they don't take tablets against seasickness before) and
REIHERN (vomit), also called fish feeding.

Don't forget to feed me ;D

You want this book?

It is a pleasure for me to teach you important
saying and words everytime.

Yep, that's it!

About cleaning up your life

2010-05-06T00:24:00.000-07:00

..or clearing clutter

Yep, I remember... a very good feeling!! :))
Important and difficult is to hold your life free!!
I did it in a big way, when i was 30. I totally changed my life and set a deadline til my 40 birthday. :)) What a good vibration !! You must believe in your dreams and ideas, and they live.
I was laying sick in bed and I heard a tape of Dr. Joseph Murphy- German titel :" Der Weg zu innerem und äusserem Reichtum. (Original Titel Miracle Power for Infinite Riches).

Immediately after that I called "friends" and (probably sounds hard) disposed of them of my life ...
I made also a list, what I really want and need..
All the rest....

This tape has moved me so that I bought the book by Dr. Murphy - inner and outer with this titel. It's like a bible for me.
I changed my mind.

One good thing in this book I do every day:
I wish everybody on the street all the love and kindness in my mind.
It works I have seen so many wonderful things and experiences.

Faith moves mountains!!

My four musketeers

2010-05-06T00:11:00.000-07:00

My networking- cloverleaf or Constance and the four Musketeers

I started with my website in january 2009, networking end of the month with Yasni.

In summer 2009 my network was growing and builded on my cloverleaf or how i call them :) my four musketeers.

My four musketeers are 4 good friends with whom I am bound in almost all networks. 4 special people I want to introduce here in my blog.

Arno Fischbacher http://www.arno-fischbacher.com/ from Salzburg, is voice coach for the economy, speaker, author and business coach. He is an expert on the unconscious power of the voice in customer service, leadership and sales.

His specialty is vocal, verbal and body language occurrence. Arnos book "Geheimer Verführer Stimme" is like a bible for people, who have to speak a lot. I am looking forward to my first coaching with him.

Elmar Theurer http://www.elmar-theurer.de/ from Karlsruhe, a photographer, he has a studio for photography and styling. Great excitement before my first photo shooting with him.

With great empathy and wit, the following pictures came about, and a second shooting at the Nurburgring is planned.

http://tinyurl.com/fotoshooting

Alexander Plath http://www.erster-eindruck.eu/ trains for over 10 years poeple in management and sales and is a sought-after trainer and speaker also in foreign countries: He believes primarily with high practical relevance, humor and enthusiasm.

Last but not least: Andreas Wiedow http://www.arow.biz/ He is coach since 1977, specialist for telephone calls around since 1988.
And my specialist for networking, which has given tips to me, a networking beginner, always with a patience and humor in a similar way.
Thanks to him, I know that hyperlinks are not diseases and that keywords really can open doors.

A big thanks to you!
There is only one thing to say: ONE FOR ALL and ALL FOR ONE!

Constance ;)))

Always lovely, you will see! Enjoy the following video!

Do you know Eifelgeist??

2009-09-29T21:34:00.000-07:00

I also can ask, if anyone knows Josef More´.

The Hungarian-born since 1989 is Hotel Manager at the
Dorint Am Nuerburgring / Hocheifel. In the international
racing scene better known as "Joseph". "I am not a director,
I'm hosting," he says, and as the host, he was obliged to do
everything for its guests to have.

His executive assistant Heike Schumacher and he formed
the heart and soul of the hotel.

In the hotel expects a motorsports museum special kind
of "Joseph" has gathered over the years, true treasures and decorated
at the end of the racing season at the hotel.

The legendary "cockpit" of the atmosphere
here looks like him.
Now we come back to my first question:
"Does anyone of you Eifel Geist ?"

Oh, now it is difficult
for me to make rhymes,
in german there are a lot about Eifelgeist. :)
Ok I try, sounds a little bit like this:

Do you drink Eifelgeist in the night,
better is a headache tablet to invite.

Ok, just kidding ;-)

On the website of the Eifel distillery you can read:

Eifelgeist is a precious herbs-aquavit
with 42 exquisite herbs and roots, which are known from the
herbalists since ancient times. They exalt the unmistakable full-bodied
character and noble taste for over 70 years (47% vol)

I must admit, that sounds very healthy!

Eifelgeist is consumed only with white gloves. The Eifelgeist is consumed only with white gloves.
This is a typical thing from the Dorint Hotel at the Nuerburgring/Germany.It was Josefs idea, when formula one came back to the Eifelarea.
And better is, because the glasses are frozen and after 15 glasses... :))Each guest receives a detailed explanation of the ceremonies.

Do you wanna taste?

So visit my second home, come to the Nürburgring!

Yep, that's it!

Funny things about penguins

Most people do not know, how it behaves with the penguin colonies. If once you've experienced, it will change your life forever, because:

1. you smell it

2. then you hear

3. Then you see them :-)

The incomparable scent of a penguin colony you will take to bed at night, especially if you are like me has rolled in the penguinshit. That wasn't the plan, but... :-)

I sat on a stone and was waiting that one of the little ones came to me. Good plan so far - but it was unfortunately blocked by a awful screeching of a young American lady.

Both of us - the little penguin and me were totally scared and he ran up to me.

The nearly crash was prevented by a clever manouve of the little one. Phew! I fell into the red-colored penguin shit. What a shame really ...

Revenge is black pudding :) > is it the right translation for the german saying:"Rache ist Blutwurst" ??

The most impressive however is the pressure with the little ones shoot their "shops" in the world. The same American lady stood beside me in front of these two, suddenly the right turned around and unfortunately missed out by 0.50 meters, he fired the bullets, 1.60 m in her direction. An indefinable sound came from her mouth: "Amazing!" The bottom line, the goals they have to learn.

Yep, that's it!!

Antarctica - unreal, unbelievable!

2009-09-24T22:16:00.001-07:00

“To anyone who goes to the Antarctic, there is a tremendous appeal, an unparalleled combination of grandeur, beauty, vastness, loneliness, and malevolence – all of which sound terribly melodramatic but
which truthfully convey the actual feeling of Antarctica. Where else in the world are all of these descriptors really true?”

Captain T.L.M. Sunter

Nothing can describe these feelings better than this statement of Captain Sunter. This disbelief, if you stand with a smile in front of these ice giants. I was had the luck on an expedition cruise in January 2005. What an unforgettable experience! I want to share those special moments with you.

Follow me on my trip to the beauty of the ice giants :

2009-09-23T22:25:00.000-07:00

Who I am? My name is Constanze Hoffmann, I was born in 1964 in Elmshorn/ Germany. In 1992 I had two big events that changed my life. I got married and was supported by Motorsport virus.

My biggest passion is my love for the Nürburgring, the toughest, most dangerous and most demanding purpose-built race track in the world.

Each time I have to drive a distance of 530 km from door to door. The Eifelarea is my second home.
Somebody asked me," Please, what does 'Motorsport virus' mean in all your profiles?"

"Yep, it's easy to explain, 'Motorsport virus' means totally crazy for it! "

His answer was, "Thanks for the explanation, Constanze. Amazing to be crazy for motorsports. We call them the petrol heads in Australia.

I am not surprise now seeing Michael Schumacher as your superfan. Look forward to see more about your crazy love there. Do you blog about them?"

Ok, why not?? Here is my result
