24.01.2022 Be gentle with yourselves in this volatile early spring. The sunshine and bursts of warmth can be deceiving, urging you into summer mode, ready for action. But the chilly wind is an important reminder to gently guard your energy, tend to your inner fire, be patient. Your time to bloom will come..

21.01.2022 (one minute read - potentially life changing...) By Kurt Vonnegut: When I was 15, I spent a month working on an archeological dig. I was talking to one of the archeologists one day during our lunch break and he asked those kinds of getting to know you questions you ask young people: Do you play sports? What’s your favorite subject? And I told him, no I don’t play any sports. I do theater, I’m in choir, I play the violin and piano, I used to take art classes.... And he went WOW. That’s amazing! And I said, Oh no, but I’m not any good at ANY of them. And he said something then that I will never forget and which absolutely blew my mind because no one had ever said anything like it to me before: I don’t think being good at things is the point of doing them. I think you’ve got all these wonderful experiences with different skills, and that all teaches you things and makes you an interesting person, no matter how well you do them. And that honestly changed my life. Because I went from a failure, someone who hadn’t been talented enough at anything to excel, to someone who did things because I enjoyed them. I had been raised in such an achievement-oriented environment, so inundated with the myth of Talent, that I thought it was only worth doing things if you could Win at them. - Kurt Vonnegut

17.01.2022 The next time you notice you’ve turned against yourself, tangled in a looping storyline about how you’ve failed, how you’re not enough, how there is something wrong with you Slow way down. Allow your centre of gravity to drop, directing your energy and awareness toward the ground. Feel your feet on the earth. Before you abandon yourself and your embodied vulnerability parachuting into the unstable waters of rumination, shame, and blame sense the roots extending out of... the bottom of your feet and into the mud and the womb and the holding field underneath you. In just this one micro moment, you are being asked to care for yourself in a new way, to see behind the veil, to cleanse your perception, and with compassion, to encode a new pathway. To provide a home, a sanctuary for the emotional and somatic world to unfold and be held. With the ally of the breath, shift your precious life energy out of the overwhelming narrative, for it is no longer safe there. It is neither nuanced, nor subtle, not majestic enough to honor what you are and the intelligence of the ally and Friend as it courses through you. Open into your belly, your heart, your throat, and the holiness of your nervous system. Place your hand onto the rippling life and listen. Taking a few deep breaths, ask: what is wanting to be met now? To be known? To be birthed and touched in this moment? What is the wisdom of the soul, in its creative unfolding, longing for me to feel and metabolize? In what way am I being asked to care for the vulnerable, the tender, and the shaky within me? With curiosity, patience, and mercy, see the ways you leave the embodied world of pure feeling, bailing on your vulnerability as you escape back into the conditioned, old, unsafe narrative of complaint, resentment, shame, blame, and self-attack. Return home. While it may seem you are longing for something outside you, in these moments you are only longing for your own presence. For safety where it was unsafe. Companionship where you were lonely. Reassurance where you were afraid. For you need yourself now more than ever. This world needs you now more than ever.~ ~Matt Licata

16.01.2022 "The worst thing we ever did was put God in the sky out of reach pulling the divinity... from the leaf, sifting out the holy from our bones, insisting God isn’t bursting dazzlement through everything we’ve made a hard commitment to see as ordinary, stripping the sacred from everywhere to put in a cloud man elsewhere, prying closeness from your heart. The worst thing we ever did was take the dance and the song out of prayer made it sit up straight and cross its legs removed it of rejoicing wiped clean its hip sway, its questions, its ecstatic yowl, its tears. The worst thing we ever did is pretend God isn’t the easiest thing in this Universe available to every soul in every breath" Chelan Harkin From her poetry book 'Susceptible to Light' Photo of Northern lights in Norway

15.01.2022 Yoga is on this morning complete with some essential oil immune aid in the diffuser! 9.30am Tuesdays, Looking forward to seeing you there!!

14.01.2022 Too beautiful not to share.. The Invitation It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.... I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love for your dream for the adventure of being alive. It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon... I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy mine or your own if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful to be realistic to remember the limitations of being human. It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy. I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence. I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, Yes. It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children. It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back. It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments. By Oriah Mountain Dreaming, from the book The

13.01.2022 Hey God. God: Hello..... Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together? God: I would rather not.... Me: Why? God: Because you aren't a puzzle. Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground? God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back. Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down! God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go. Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me? God: Only the very best pieces of you. Me: I'm scared of changing. God: I keep telling you - YOU AREN'T CHANGING!! YOU ARE BECOMING! Me: Becoming who? God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! Become! Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it. Me: There goes another piece. God: Yep. Let it be. Me: So...I'm not broken? God: No - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day. Become!!" AND SO IT IS..

12.01.2022 Me: Hey God. God: Hey my love. Me: I don't like the way I look. ... God: I think that you are beautiful. Me: I'm a mess. God: No way. You're a masterpiece. Me: Uh...have You really looked at me lately?! God: Of course. When was the last time that you really saw yourself? Me: I just looked in a mirror. God: That's your problem. You're using the wrong mirrors to see yourself in. Me: Huh? That doesn't make any sense. God: Hang on. This is going to take some time to explain. Get comfortable and grab a pen to take notes. If you don't like The way that you Look it's probably Because you have Chosen the wrong Mirror to look in. Stop using other angry people as a mirror To see yourself in Angry people make the worst mirrors. They only want to reflect your blemishes And your weaknesses And your fault lines And your sins. Don't blame them for making you feel bad. You are the one using them To tell you how you look. Of course they will tell you that you're ugly. They are angry - what did you expect? While we are at it... Stop using your bank account as a mirror. - It's a liar. It doesn't really show you who you really are. Neither does your car Or your grades Or your awards Or your Instagram Or your past Or your medical diagnosis None of those things make very good mirrors. If you want to know how you actually look I suggest that you hold a baby for a bit. Pay attention to how a baby will look at you. To a baby you are a garden of a million wildflowers. You are a giant. You are an ancient warrior protecting them from monsters and uncomfortable rashes. You fill up their sky like a brilliant supernova. To a baby in your arms you are the cradle and the lullaby. A baby will gaze at you with wide eyes and an uncontrollable smile because they have just come from heaven and they know divinely crafted beauty when they see it. Babies see the miracle in you. Babies see the miracle in you. Babies see the miracle in you. A baby will recognize your life for what it is: precious and worthy of dignity. Babies make the best mirrors. Look at yourself the way a baby looks at you. For too long you have let dirty and broken shards of glass tell you who you are. Their reflection is corrupt - stop trusting them. Let the innocent show you who you are. They see your light. They see you for who you are: Capable Strong Faithful Beautiful Burning Blooming Becoming In the time you have left Be kind to yourself And choose which reflections Of yourself that You believe with the utmost care ~ John Roedel

09.01.2022 Most of you who know me know that I'm pretty quiet on social media.. and then once in a blue moon something like this comes out.. I've had a most-of-my-adult-life-long interest in Ayurvedic medicine, and recently took part in a short course to help disordered eating patterns, and this came out in my introduction.. If you resonate with suppressing emotions, addictions and food, you might find this little story of my life an interesting read. I share this in hope that it...Continue reading

03.01.2022 We live in a beautiful world..

01.01.2022 Morning mindfulness from Melli O'Brien "You know, most of us tend to carry around needless mental burdens that weigh us down. Perhaps you constantly rehash a past mistake over and over again. Maybe you worry about a problem ceaselessly or you ruminate about a perfectionistic standard for your life that you have been unable to meet such as your weight, your finances or your achievements.... Maybe you beat yourself up over a bad habit or addiction or obsess over a feeling that you’ve been wronged or misunderstood. Perhaps you carry around rigid rules and expectations for yourself and others. When we carry these mental burdens with us all the time, it’s like carrying weight on your shoulders. It’s exhausting, stressful and makes everything else in life harder. I’m not suggesting we ignore the hard stuff in life, or stop thinking about the future and solving problems, but it is harmful and detrimental to get stuck in ruminative cycles, just repeating the same old thing in your head over and over again. In reality that doesn’t help us, it only hinders us. So today I’m going to invite you to drop just one mental burden you’ve been carrying around that no longer serves you. So just take a moment now to pick one thing that feels like it has been weighing you down. And now just considering what part of this thinking pattern is actually useful? Is there a lesson, an insight, a useful nugget of wisdom? If so then taking note of it and taking it with you. And noting what parts of the mental dialogue are just creating needless heartache, suffering, negativity and anxiety. Really take a moment here to see and feel the suffering it creates, how it fills you with anger, fear, insecurity or depression or the like. Seeing clearly the cost of carrying this burden. And resolving to yourself now to drop it. Just give yourself permission to set it down. Telling yourself it's okay to let it go. You can take the learning with you and drop the burden of the rest. So resolving to disengage from it, to stop buying into it and getting hijacked by it. It will probably keep coming up in the background of your mind over the coming days as a habit, but simply making a decision now to not keep picking up this mental load. As you shed this one mental burden, feel the sense of ease and lightness that emerges and know that as you continue to cultivate an unburdened mind you make more space for inner peace, freedom and joy to grow." Melli O'Brien
