24.01.2022 For anyone interested in the possibilities offered by integrating science and the wisdom traditions, this conference is an exciting step in the right direction. This is a clip produced by Science and Nonduality (SAND) - "it brings together preeminent scientists, philosophers, spiritual teachers, and mystics for an exploration of the new paradigm emerging in spirituality that is grounded in cutting-edge science and consistent with the ancient wisdom of nonduality -- the deep understanding of the interconnectedness of life." https://www.youtube.com/watch

23.01.2022 I think this is worth sharing. It is written for a US audience but the point that is being made is true for everyone. We all have the ability to make our own choices about what is important and how we want to be in this world. Our own culture can be both enriching and limiting. There is much to be gained from looking at other cultures to learn new ideas for celebrating life. http://www.mnn.com//7-cultural-concepts-we-dont-have-in-th

22.01.2022 When someone or something upsets you, we often find ourselves repeating the same responses that have not always served us so well in the past. My latest post illustrates this very point Yesterday, I came up against the passion and the idealism, the anger at injustices done in the world and the frustration of complacency, and the disappointment of someone I love and cherish. It was not the first time and yet I found myself no better equipped to respond adequately than in the past. When emotions are fired up in a loved one ..

21.01.2022 You might like to check out this short clip on 'waking up' as a response to a crisis. Spiritual teacher, Thomas Huebl, talks about the the discomfort and pressure caused by a personal crisis. He uses slightly different terminology but what he is talking about is the stress people experience in their lives. He discusses how people tend to try to keep safe or avoid the discomfort and so do not allow the opportunity for growth that exists within a crisis. This really follows on from my last blog. He then moves to the positive impact on society if enough people choose growth and become as he puts it "creative". He is talking about a tipping point and his argument is quite compelling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQohnRbTKFk

15.01.2022 I thought this was worth sharing. It is sensitively and thoughtfully written. She speaks about the personal impact many have experienced in response to the loss of someone like Robin Williams, and how depression is "no respecter of money or class or fame". http://taniakindersley.blogspot.co.at//send-not-to-know.ht

11.01.2022 The other afternoon, I met with a group of like-minded women. We meet because we are interested in personal learning and growth, using the Enneagram as our common base. Each time, a topic is offered for discussion by one of the group. On this day, the topic was self-inquiry and the role of the Enneagram. As our group is made up of both enthusiastic students and accredited teachers, you might think that the conclusion would be both obvious and simple. After all, the Enneagram ...Continue reading

06.01.2022 I was having a conversation with a friend and was reminded of this post from my blog: My son’s little dog has broken her leg. She goes to doggy day-care a couple times a week and she jumped awkwardly from the back of the van. It was a bad break at the bottom of her back leg and the vet put a caste on (its pink!) that covers the whole leg. As a Maltese terrier mix, she loves to run and is surprisingly fast for such a little dog. As soon as the swelling went down she was gett...ing around their flat as normal with the caste thump, thumping on the floor as she went. What surprised my son and his wife was that when they took her for a walk, she wanted to run. She just lifted up the leg with the caste on it and took off at her normal pace, running on 3 legs. My daughter-in-law was amazed that their little dog just seemed to be getting on as if everything was normal and the caste was just a part of her. The thought that popped immediately into my head was yes that’s because she doesn’t attach any meaning to it. When I said it, my husband (a doctor) commented that it was the same for little children. They automatically modify their movement to accommodate the caste and get around as if it was not an impediment or problem. It reminded me of a recent conversation. I was talking to someone who is planning to move to another country. They were lamenting the difficulties, time and how painful it was to apply for and get the necessary visas etc from that country. When faced with dealing with something we tend to give it a label and that label reflects the meaning we attach to that situation. I was struck then by how the meaning we make of the events in our lives can create or make worse an environment of stress. Yes, visa applications do present specific challenges; they take time and effort and may force people to reassess their plans. But, it is up to us whether we decide to label it as a difficult and stressful situation or whether we choose to attach a different meaning. It seems that the meaning we make of events and circumstances in our lives actually has the greatest impact on our experiences. We actually do have a choice.

03.01.2022 The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problem. Mahatma Ghandi When I was at a Pilates class recently, the physiotherapist told me to keep going until the muscles I was working on fatigued. Over the years I have trained with fitness trainers and I was familiar with the no pain no gain approach, so I pushed until the muscles stung and quivered. There is always this light-hearted banter in our group abou...Continue reading

I tend to because I have found there is always something of benefit waiting (wanting?) to be found. My last blog was called What do you do when you are uncomfortable? It was about how, in some areas of our lives, we tend to avoid feeling discomfort or stress whether it is in exercise, situations or relationships. It pointed to the benefit of facin...Continue reading
