Codependent´s Diary

Liina Viies Zethelius

I was born in Rapla, a small city in Estonia and I lived my first 13 years in a small village. As a child, I spent most of my free time outside in the nature and my first years passed so that I was alone a lot. An interesting and exciting world began from it: I began pondering about the behavior of myself and others. I always wanted to have the answer why we as humans behave the way we do and where do our thoughts come from.
A great interest in humans as a whole has only grown in me over the years.

Since 2004 I´ve been living in Harnosand, Sweden. I married for
the second time, learned Swedish and adjusted to the life here. I found myself great new friends and hobbies, which are dancing and winter swimming. Thanks to winter swimming I´ve learned to be present, notice the nature even better and I´ve become much better friends with my body. Nature plays a huge role in my life and without it I couldn´t even imagine my life.

My friends and acquaintances see in me a courageous,
optimistic, truth-searching, deep, feminine and open woman with great life-energy. I´m a person who believes in miracles and that words have tremendous power over our thoughts and feelings.

I´ve learned different professions in my life: secretary, tourism,
health counseling, holistic regression therapy and Imago couple therapy. Additionally, I´ve completed different courses which have supplemented my toolbox in work with people. Above all, I like meta-medicine. Working with people has taught me that giving and receiving in life must be in balance, then everything works.

I currently work in my own company "Therapist Liina Viies
Zethelius" as holistic regression and couple therapist as well as health counselor.

As my final words I´ll say two wonderful quotes by Eckhart Tolle, both of which have affected me:
"Instead of asking life what I want, it´s even more powerful to ask what life wants from me!" and
"Life is a dancer and you´re a dance."
