24.01.2022 Awakening my new drum. Ive really been called to healing sound this year, listening to it but also using it as a tool for self expression and self healing. Im learning to sing devotional chants and just played this beautiful instrument to bond with it. I had no idea how powerful drumming is. Ive never done it before and just drummed as I felt. A truly meditative experience. So blessed . . . #shamanicdrum #drumming #soundhealing #soundmedicine #vibration #healing #selfexpression #behappy #bewell #justbe #essentiallybeing

24.01.2022 Its five years since I first heard that given the right conditions, the body can heal itself. And Ive put a lot of effort into trying to create the right conditions. What I didnt realise was that creating the right conditions meant taking stuff away and leaving the body to be in as natural state as possible. Instead, I kept adding stuff in - thousands of dollars of supplements and herbs, intravenous vitamin c, every superfood under the sun, fermented foods, essential oil...s, complicated gourmet plant based food and way too much of it. The only time I saw any improvements was when I took all of that out and fasted. But then Id start the cycle again, overeating and looking for cures outside of my body and get worse. Learning the principles of Nature Cure and Natural Hygiene has shown me that the path to true healing is particularly narrow. Good health is our natural state and most of what we do gets in the way of it. Health comes on a pure path aligned with the laws of nature. Giving the body the very little that it truly needs and leaving it to just be. Basic nature cure or natural hygiene is that branch of science which deals with the care of the organism in a state of dis-ease or disease. It recognises that there is a law of health which is also the law of Cure and that by obedience to this law, health and healing are both obtained. It includes all hygienic measures such as proper dieting, fasting, rest and relaxation, exercise (active, corrective and recreational), pranayama, sun-bathing and hydro-therapy, which form part of the fivefold food medicine. There is no place in this Science for drugs of any kind or for electrical, mechanical or other applications or so-called aids, which ultimately impair or endanger health. Non- violence to the human organism is accepted as basic principle governing the application of all Nature Cure measures. Practical Nature Cure by K. Laksharma Sarma. Disease is not cured by any attack but by raising the level of health in the patient, ultimately enabling the patient to become their own doctor. Even so-called natural aids are not used on the basis that there is no healing power in anything except the body itself. Provided the body has sufficient energy or nerve force. There are no guarantees. Come and join the journey https://m.facebook.com/groups/146003299379383

18.01.2022 The people Im staying with here in India are Jains. Jainism is Indias oldest religion and is very strongly based on the idea of karma ie cause and effect and the principle of non-violence or ahimsa. The key precepts are: 1. Not to kill or give pain to any living being. 2. Not to speak lies. 3. Not to steal. It is truly a religion of peace and redemption. ... . . . #jainism #ahimsa #donoharm #peace #love #meditation #harmonywithall See more
18.01.2022 And so tomorrow, in pursuit of a 30 year dream, I head to India. What the future holds, none of us know. But this trip has arisen out of my desire to live as full a life as I possibly can right NOW. A voice came to me in my meditation about 8 weeks ago and said Go to India! It was not a voice to argue with and so here I am, packed and ready to go. Everything has come together perfectly so Im in no doubt this is the next adventure. Feeling remarkably fear free. I cannot wait to meet Mother India. Shes been calling me for a long time . . . . #india #fulfilledlife #now #presentmoment #meditation #retreat #healthyself #beingcalled #spiritual #timeless #behappy #bewell #justbe #essentiallybeing

14.01.2022 "God is not to be found in churches churches are manufactured by man. God is to be found in nature. You will find him in the stars, you will find him in the earth. When it rains for the first time and the beautiful fragrance arises out of the earth, you can find God there. You can find God in the eyes of a cow or in the giggling of a child. You can find God everywhere except the places that priests have invented. The churches, temples, mosques are empty, as empty as people are. The moment one is ready to accept life as it comes, with no conditions, suddenly God rushes toward one from every nook and corner."

14.01.2022 A new blog post. Happy new year Essential Being. A new beginning. A new moment. If you want to start again, you can. Take a deep breath and begin again. And its five years ago today since the big C entered the narrative of my life. It feels appropriate to mark the occasion but really Im no longer particularly interested in the story that brought me to the present moment.

14.01.2022 Dying focuses the mind on whats important. It may seem trivial but I really relate to the bit about makeup. I just really dont see the point these days ...
13.01.2022 I know Ive shared this quote before but it truly speaks to me. One week and Im getting on a plane to India. For the immediate future Ill be staying in a Nature Cure retreat just out of Chennai where Ill be eating fresh raw food, mostly fruit, catching the sunshine, having treatments and resting. Its my plan for much of that rest to occur in meditation and occasional silence. A reminder you can follow the journey more closely in the group Essentially Being Raw: https://m....facebook.com/groups/146003299379383?ref=bookmarks Ive been asked by many who is coming with me? The answer is no one. How can anyone accompany us on our journey inwards? The answer is they cant. And the reality is that I find pure joy and the music of the universe in solitude and silence. Of course I love my social interactions. They too bring me joy. But Im not afraid of being alone. There is so much to hear. After all, the same letters spell silence and listen. Do you enjoy solitude and silence? . . . #silence #solitude #innerjourney #knowthyself #meditation #fasting #musicoftheuniverse #listen #turninginwards #healing #naturecure #behappy #bewell #justbe #essentiallybeing See more

08.01.2022 It is not for the dweller in the body to get the body cured anyhowhe who believes that he is nothing but body, will naturally wander to the ends of the earth in order to cure the body of its ills. But he who realizes that the soul is something apart from, though in the body, that it is imperishable in contrast to the perishable body, will not be perturbed nor mourn if the elements fail. On the contrary he will welcome death as a friend. He will become his own healer instead... of seeking for medical men. He will live in the consciousness of the soul within and look to the care, first and last, of the indweller.

08.01.2022 Reading American Veda. There is a fabulous quote from Yogananda who embraced Christ in his teachings. He says that in reality there is only one religion, God consciousness or the realisation of God within. And we and God are not separate. It is the way we come to that consciousness or realisation that varies from person to person, tradition to tradition, religion to religion. In our journeys we have much more in common than we think. . . . #religion #manypaths #godconsciousness #realization #tolerance #nojudgment #love #peace #wisdom #knowledge #meditation #prayer #gowithin #behappy #bewell #justbe #essentiallybeing

03.01.2022 Have you noticed that people, yes me included, get caught up in the notion of purpose? Asking what is my purpose? Why am I here? What am I meant to do? This comment really stood out for me in the documentary Yogic Paths. What it meant for me is that I have no purpose beyond being present to the here and now. And if Im quiet enough, inspiration will come for me to take the next step. If Im constantly striving to fulfil some purpose my mind creates for me, then I come from a ...place of ambition rather than inspiration. So Ill just go sit quietly and just be and await the next inspiration, remembering that so much gets done without anyone actually having to DO anything. What are your thoughts on this? Do you struggle with this idea of purpose? Or do you feel that you have a clear purpose and are able to take continued inspired action? . . . #yogicpaths #purpose #stillness #quiet #anandmehrotra #meditation #inspiration #consciousness #awake #behappy #bewell #justbe #essentiallybeing See more
