When good hearted people come together, when intention aligns, light is not just sparked…it grows and grows, becoming ever more intense. The rising up and coming together of communities to resist racism, to stand ground against violence, and to send a message of inclusion to those who have often risked their lives in search of...
In business we sometimes consider things like the vision and goals of the organisation, asking ourselves what are we aspiring to? A well crafted vision provides a glimpse of the destination. Glimpse because often a vision can feel a little out of reach or hard to express in truly concrete terms. Microsoft’s vision to put...
Life comprises light and shade and greyer stuff in between. We need this contrast for how would we recognise joy without experiencing the opposite. And yet contrast has become something far more challenging. We can see this in conventional media with often vastly different and usually negative takes on the same story, and in the...
Of course it’s that time of year when we are invited to set personal goals and intentions. Commit ourselves to the changes – physical, emotional, mental and spiritual – that we know will help us to improve our path in life and make better contributions. We also know that in many cases these might last...

Isn’t that what we need now in a world that has, on the one hand, made such progress through human ingenuity...
Humans are naturally and powerfully creative. Every thought, every action, every attitude contributes in some way to our collective reality. So often we assume we aren’t creative because we tend to associate it with the arts – painting, performing, writing and so on. In reality, just like nature itself, we are infinitely creative. Creativity is...
We may all long for a better world. A world of more love, kindness, peace, fairness, prosperity. Though the forces holding this back may seem too formidable for us to overcome each of us can make a difference in how we interact with the world and in the intentions we set for its improvement. Of...
If we want a better world we must each play our part in its creation, living as citizens of that better world rather than citizens of our own little world. Examining all aspects of our life and their contribution to our wellbeing – mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually – is a start. Maybe our practice...
