Have you ever sat with the fluid complexity of your thoughts and feelings, witnessing each one and accepting each one as it arises, and then watching it as it dissolves into the next moment and the next? Have you ever acknowledged what your mind and your heart are expressing in this moment, and enquired into what they might be saying to you?

This is the simple practice I would like to recommend to you, as a way of coming home to yourself, in order to step boldl [...]

The Power of Intention

My heart was broken. I was in great distress. It was late spring, the most beautiful time of the year, and I had been jolted violently out of my blissful reverie. The man that I loved passionately and whole-heartedly had decided he couldn't be in relationship with me any more - it was too difficult, too painful, like many relationships these days - and he would not negotiate or even discuss the matter. We had only moved in together 8 months ago, and I loved [...]

Did you know that of the 58,000 high animal species on the planet we are the only ones that denature our food by multi-level processing and then cooking? Modern human technology has made it possible to manufacture substitutes to most of the ingredients of life, and huge amounts of energy and finances are invested in convincing us these produces substances are superior.

An Invitation to Freedom

Introduction

This is an experiment. I hope you don't mind me experimenting on you. I seem to be in a ‘po' moment in my life. A ‘po' moment is something I heard about from a friend of mine. He was telling me that in the 70s companies devised this concept of ‘po' in response to times of uncertainty. If a ‘yes' or ‘no' was called for, and someone offered ‘po', the answer was ac [...]

Manifesting a Beautiful Body

A good diet, regular exercise, periodic detoxification, and plenty of pure water are all vital components in the quest for a fit, healthy body. Making time and space for reflection, contemplation, meditation, and relaxation lowers our stress levels and enables our emotional processes, which aids us in our quest for health and well-being. In addition, I would like to suggest that the power of our thoughts plays an important role in what we see when we look in the mirror.

Detox is a natural cleansing of toxins, which have been absorbed and stored daily in our bodies. The result of undigested foods, environmental pollution and substance misuse, toxins build up in our bodies often in the length of our intestines. When our in [...]

Time To Detox

Time to Detox

I need to detox. I know it because I am feeling sluggish in the morning. I have less energy than usual, I have greyish circles under my eyes, and I'm craving substances that aren't contributing to my health like coffee and sugar.

Even detox experts need to detox from time to time. I have my weaknesses, my bad habits, my times of overconsumption, and my compulsions. I need to detox and [...]
