25.01.2022 Rest breathe acknowledge all of the wonder that surrounds you. #acknowledge #wonder
24.01.2022 Belonging is important. When we feel a sense of belonging then relaxation is simple, as we can relax in the knowledge that someone will be there to catch us if we fall. However, relaxation is something rarely experienced in our contemporary world and this may be linked to a lack of belonging. Belonging is something that everyone wants, but it is not something that everyone experiences. One of the major contributors to this lack of belonging may be the way we choose to perceiv...e it. Many of us go out into the world searching for belonging as if it was a commodity that only a few people could possess. Importantly; when we perceive belonging as something that is lacking, we reduce the amount of belonging experienced by ourselves and those we love. The experience of belonging does not arise in another’s acceptance of us. Its inception occurs within us. It is born out of every compassionate action that we take, every affirming word that we speak and every whole-hearted embrace that we share with those around us. Belonging is important and we are the harbingers of this integral experience. #experience #relaxation
23.01.2022 Relationships are not about making another person happy, they are about sharing our happiness with one another. Because happiness is only real when shared. #sharing #happiness
21.01.2022 Don’t confuse money and possessions for friendship and deep connection. There is nothing more valuable than the people within our lives when we can find the courage to express this reality to them, we will experience authentic and fulfilling relationships. #authentic... #relationships See more
21.01.2022 In times of crisis, we become conscious of how much love truly matters. #crisis #matters
15.01.2022 Now more than ever, it is the choices that we make which determines the quality of our lives. The quality of our lives used to be most impacted by the number of mistakes that we could avoid. If we could avoid being eaten by saber-toothed tigers, being killed in a war or jamming our hand in workplace machinery that was a big win for us. Now more than ever we find ourselves in a society that has shielded us from harm, that has removed the most dangerous of jobs, that has drast...ically reduced the time spent on menial tasks. Now more than ever we find ourselves in a society where our choices impact our lives more than ever before. The quality of our choices hinge upon how mutually beneficial they really are. This is because mutually beneficial choices bring us closer to the ones we love and shield us from the malevolent actions of those who do not truly care for us. Now more than ever the quality of our lives is determined by the choices that we make and the most important choice is who we choose to embrace. #embrace #choice
15.01.2022 All of the greatest hearts and minds that have walked this Earth have acknowledged their suffering. Suffering is not something that we should try to avoid, it is something that we can embrace. Because it is in the embrace of our suffering that we can understand why it is here and how we can let it go. Freedom will never arrive while we are running freedom arrives when we acknowledge our suffering with an open heart.... #acknowledge #suffering
15.01.2022 ‘All of these hormones are produced primarily in the middle or mammalian brain, also called the limbic system or emotional brain. For birth to proceed optimally, this more primitive part of the brain needs to take precedence over our neocortex our new or higher brain which is the seat of our rational mind. This shift in consciousness, which some have called going to another planet, is aided by (and also aids) the release of birthing hormones such as beta-endorphin, an...d is inhibited by circumstances that increase alertness, such as bright lighting, conversation, and expectations of rationality.’ - Dr Sarah J. Buckley Human beings function optimally through the intense process of birth when their emotional brain is functioning at its full capacity. The emotional brain facilitates the release of hormones which may not change the intense process that they are going through but does change the quality of their experience while they are going through it. As human beings, we cannot avoid intense experiences. When we first come into the world, we go through potentially the most intense experience of our lives (birth). The intensity of birth can appear to be reflected over and over again throughout our lifetimes. We may not be able to avoid intense experiences, but we can change the way in which we move through them. By connecting with our bodies through our emotional brains, we have the power to change the quality of our experiences and our lives. #intense #experience
11.01.2022 ‘When my brothers try to draw a circle to exclude me, I shall draw a larger circle to include them.’ - Pauli Murray The shift from being an exclusive person to an inclusive human being is a powerful one.... The choice to include others can change your experience of the world from one that is oppressive to one which provides endless opportunities; it can alter your experience of relationships from onerous and difficult to simple and fulfilling; it can change your life from a heavy burden to an uplifting legacy. To be truly inclusive requires more than a smile and a kind word. It requires you to know who you are and what you are experiencing in your mind and in your heart. It is only by experiencing the deeper aspects of who you are that you can include others in a significant way. #significant #relationships
11.01.2022 The function of freedom is to free someone else. - Toni Morrison Freedom is something that we all aspire to. Its potential has inspired some of the most courageous acts in human history and its promise has been at the heart of many great leaders’ visions.... Our society has access to some of the greatest levels of freedom in human history. We are free to work where we want, we are free to travel wherever we want and we are free to love whoever we want. So why is it that depression and anxiety are so prominent? Maybe it is because we have had freedom wrong. Freedom is not a commodity that should be hoarded, it is an experience that can be shared. Freedom is not the end goal it is the starting point. #free #courageous
11.01.2022 Join us on Sunday the 21st of July for a beautiful 3 hour immersion into balancing our bodies and relationships through this cold, dark winter.
10.01.2022 The most beautiful rose is grown out of the most fertile of soil. The most fertile soil is either covered in crap or has been covered in crap in recent history. Roses are great metaphors for the choices that we make, as our choices can lead to beauty and astonishment. The soil is an appropriate metaphor for our lives, as our choices arise from our lives just like a beautiful rose rises up from fertile soil. Our lives derive their fertility from the amount of fertiliser that w...e feed them with. The most natural ‘fertiliser’ is derived from un-orchestrated experiences that inspire learning and evoke growth. Of these experiences, the most powerful are often described as crap. But there is something beautiful waiting beneath such experiences. This beauty is an improved capacity to make important choices. The choices that we make today are a by-product of the experiences that we have had in the past. There are so many inspiring people who talk about the most difficult thing they have faced also being the most important thing that they have gone through. This is because difficulties often inspire greater understanding and alternative perspectives. Life is a balance between enjoying the times when everything is as we want it to be and learning when things don’t go our way. If this balance is skewed to the ‘positive’, our capacity to make important choices is compromised. If it is skewed to the ‘negative’ then we may rarely feel any happiness at all. When we allow the most difficult experiences to be what they are, we can learn from them. It is through learning that we can prepare our lives for the many roses that are to come. #difficult #experiences
10.01.2022 It is not what you said it is how you said it. Have you heard this before? How we speak with one another is vitally important. It has been suggested that only a small portion of our communication is expressed through the words that we speak. Of much greater importance is the tone that we use. It can seem like some people don’t care about how they speak to us. But the reality is that everyone cares about how we speak with them. This is evident in the way that everyone becom...es more guarded when they are criticised and more relaxed when they are thanked for their efforts. People often misunderstand the meaning of our expression when we are not conscious of the tone that we are using. This can lead to us becoming defensive and saying to one another that is not what I mean, when I say (insert your request here) When we speak with certainty, in our gratitude towards one another, and gentleness, in our acknowledgement of what we want to change, the consistency with which we say what we mean dramatically improves. #say what you mean and #mean what you say.
10.01.2022 It’s not about the thoughts in your head, it’s about surrender. Surrender is what frees you up to be completely in the moment, to commit with your body and your soul not a shred of doubt. - Simon Baker, Breath Control is important in the way it allows us to impart mutually beneficial outcomes within our world. But it does have limitations, as we cannot control what is outside of our control. ... In the field beyond our control; surrender is the force which engenders wholeness and strength. Remember to surrender to what you cannot control. #beyond #control
09.01.2022 Within nature, there are forces which cannot be subdued. The wind can take away our homes; the water can erode the most solid of stones; the ground can shift and sway beneath our feet. But what if the greatest force of nature was ours? What if there was nothing more powerful than the collective focus of humanity? Human beings have evolved within nature and now know what is at the core of our planet and what is outside of our atmosphere. We have come to change the very face of... the Earth with all that we have accomplished throughout our evolution. Humanity is a force of nature which has collectively shaped the world that we now live in. As a human being, you are a force of nature and the choices that you make have a massive influence on the world around you. #you are #powerful
08.01.2022 We have access to so much more than we ever thought possible. Our human bodies have five senses: hearing, sight, taste, touch, and smell. It has been estimated that these five senses combine to collect over 11 million pieces of information per second, for any one human being. Interestingly: of the 11 million pieces of information that our bodies collect per second, we are estimated to become consciously aware of only 50 pieces of information. This huge compression of informat...ion has been observed when human beings are in their waking (conventional) state of consciousness. The choices that we make as human beings impact on the quality of our lives. Our choices are always made with reference to the information that we are receiving from our five senses. Importantly, it is possible to improve the quality of information that we are accessing moment by moment through the experience of transcendent states of consciousness. Transcendent states of consciousness can be defined as experiencing that which is outside the boundaries of our conventional state of consciousness. Through transcendent states, we can consciously access more relevant and potentially greater amounts of information through our five senses. This can result in more informed choices and improved quality of life. Studies conducted using pharmaceuticals, specifically selected to induce transcendent states of consciousness, have shown that patients needed to have the transcendent experience associated with the pharmaceutical ingestion for the pharmaceutical to have had its effect. In one periarticular study, conducted by Dr. Roland Griffith at Johns Hopkins, they found that the transcendent experience had a high efficacy on smoking cessation as well as increasing quality of life and decreasing death anxiety. Human beings have the capacity to experience states of consciousness which are radically unlike our conventional states of consciousness. Accessing transcendent states has been a key facet of many ancient cultures and we now know why. When human beings have a transcendent experience, their conventional state of consciousness changes as they begin to make more informed choices and experience an improved quality of life. #transcendent #consciousness
05.01.2022 ‘To live is to engage in experience, at least partly on the terms of the experience itself.’ - Ernest Becker We have grown up within a culture that promotes disapproval and criticism. This kind of promotion has led acquiescent individuals to look for problems, even when there are no problems left to resolve. The issue is that there is actually a problem with always looking for the next problem. ... Through constant problem solving, we fail to experience what is not a problem within our lives. An example of this would be focusing on someone that we hate working with, while missing the reality that our work affords us the lifestyle that we are enjoying. Another example would be focusing on how little sleep we are getting, with a new baby, while missing the beauty of human evolution unfolding before our very eyes. Life is not a problem to be resolved, it is an experience that must be lived. #problem #resolved
04.01.2022 The future isn’t a place that we’re gonna go, it’s a place that you get to create. - Nancy Duarte It is the choices that we make today that will impact our experience of tomorrow. The choices that we make not only impact our lives but they also affect the experience of everyone who we interact with.... The reality is that we have the power to create a future that we want, through the choices that we make today. The question is: What future are you creating for your yourself, your loved ones and your community? #experience #community
03.01.2022 The world is full of lonely people afraid to make the first move. - Viggo Mortensen, Green Book Every human being has the power to change someone’s life simply by showing that they care.... #care #change
