It’s not easy to let go. Painful memories, toxic relationships, harmful choices, feelings of guilt… it takes a lot of courage and deep inner shifts to really let go of that kind of stuff. And often, just when we think we’ve got it out of our system, it comes back around in a different form. We find ourselves in a relationship with similar patterns, or we suddenly feel some old anxiety spontaneously bubbling up. The thing is, our experiences and situations in life are very much a reflection of our belief patterns. And sometimes those patterns are largely unconscious. Until we…
Today I have a very simple message for you. Please… don’t forget your connection with Nature. I think one of the saddest things about modern society, is that it is too easy to become disconnected from Nature. Many of us live in a concrete jungle. Add to that our hectic and stressful life, with work pressures, financial worries, and family responsabilities. Very often we are not even aware of Nature. And when that happens, it’s a serious situation. Nature is absolutely vital for our well-being. There is an energy in Nature that cannot be found anywhere else. That energy breathes…
If I asked you “Do you respect yourself?”, I imagine you would most likely say “Yes, of course.” But then if I asked you “Do you have challenges with other people respecting your time and privacy?”, what would you say? If you are like most people, myself included, you probably struggle sometimes with family, friends, or colleagues who always seem to impose themselves on your time and personal space. They invite themselves to your house, or they insist you accompany them to some god-awful place that you wouldn’t, for the life of you, normally go to, or they ask you to…
I hope you are having a tough day. eh… what? Yep, that’s what I said… I hope your day is going really difficult with lots of challenges and problems. I bet not many people wish you a tough day! The thing is if you are having an easy day, with no problems, then you are not learning or growing. It is through difficulties and adversity that we truly learn about life and about our own nature. You discover just how strong you are to get through tough times. You discover that you have an inner strength and inner resources. You learn how to manage…
It’s really not so hard to know what your intuition is trying to tell you. Deep down inside you know. You know what you should do. You know what you’d rather be doing with your life, your relationships, your career. The mind may try to intellectualise, analyse, and over-think the issue. But you know. You know that you know. The problem is not knowing what you need to do. The problem is having the courage to actually do it. Much of the time our intuition is very clear, but involves taking some hard decisions. Maybe we are stuck in a toxic…
To be effective in anything in life you need to have a secure foundation within yourself. It is from your centre of balance and peace that you can bring about transformation of yourself and your life circumstances. Without that solid base you can end up floundering and struggling. By creating a Sacred Space for yourself you honour yourself and the Divinity that is within you. A Sacred Space can be a physical location in your home, such as a room or a shelf that you can turn into a shrine. Or it could be a special place outside in nature where…
