Have you ever thought about what it means to be fully aware and ‘awake’ in every moment? To be so connected to how you are showing up, what you are sensing from others and what else is moving in the surrounding energy field’. This is of course a big ask and we might say only...
In a world where there is so much conflict, and increasingly so, it is understandable that we may feel hemmed in, surrounded, by drama. In this state the insignificant irritations and challenges of our everyday become magnified, taking on a dramatic significance of which they are unworthy. Unwittingly or unintentionally we may be adding to...
It’s a full-on world that we inhabit right now. In fact, to be more precise, that we have created. Locating and connecting to one’s inner balance is extremely tough as we are buffeted by global and local challenges and crises. And yet that inner balance has never been more essential because it’s from there that...
Given the challenges facing our world each of us showing up whole, reporting for duty if you like, and bringing our full awareness and positive intention to all that we do in our daily lives is a must. Though we may be nodding our heads here, silently thinking of course, there are many obstacles. The...
Do you recall those days at school when the register was taken and we’d all say ‘present Miss’ or something similar? Of course, we were only children and largely talking about our physical presence and nothing much more. Hopefully as we’ve matured we’ve come to recognise the significance of bringing our whole selves to anything...
We live in a noisy world where so much competes for our attention. Much, of course, does need that attention whether that’s caring for ourselves, our families, those close to us, or the many challenges facing the human family and the planet we call home. Often, though, our concerns – whether close to home or...
Most of us are most likely focused on Christmas in these weeks and I’m reminded of one of the less focused on aspects of the Christmas season, the arrival of the three Magi bringing gifts to the new-born child, Jesus. The Magi, or kings as they have become known, were also considered to be wise....
We can gaze at the heavens and be reminded of how tiny we are as individuals and, as a planet, in the vastness of the universe. We may consider the scale of humanity and conclude we, as one person, have little impact. Yet we have more power than we know. Every thought, word, action touches...
When we reflect on the luminous energy that emanates from some people we know we have been in contact with someone or something very powerful. It’s a sense of a timeless, enriching and generous power that includes and envelopes us. It’s a presence that is both of the person and beyond the person. It’s a...
There’s a world of difference between ‘being with’ and ‘being there’. In the latter we can show up physically without being fully present. Our mind (attention), emotions, spirit may be somewhere else entirely. Being with means we’re immersed wholly in each moment. Our visible and invisible aspects are aligned, fully connected to our environment –...
