It’s easy to look for answers to your questions outside yourself, you’re conditioned to do so. In school the focus is largely on what you’re taught by others and what you can remember. You become used to a collective who has an opinion on your behaviour and Iife: teachers, career counsellors, pastoral care. By the
Where sits the sense of self that will not allow itself to be treated so? The flame lit from the original spark that chose to bring such a creature breathing, crying, screaming into this world, that you now allow to be extinguished by one so low, where is it? Where are you?
What a luxury it is, to have one problem at a time. How fortuitous our luck, when a single event or emotion arises, and we have time to witness it in its entirety, to feel its vibrations move through our body, our lives, without distraction. Even as a moment ravages us, and we have the
There’s little information in life today that isn’t ultra-accessible or searchable online. We feel entitled to know things, anything, all the time. Beautiful as this thirst for knowledge is, quenching it doesn’t always work out quite so well, especially if the facts are incorrect, or placed into the wrong hands. Within the spiritual community I see knowledge
I had one of those moments the other day, that was so simple it slipped over into profound. It had been raining as I strolled down my local High Street, and I had my umbrella up. I was about to cross paths with a woman when she looked at me, smiled and said, “It’s not
I realised today, that I could live another 40years. 40 years. Once you reach a certain age, time can feel more finite, so many more years known than to know. Tell me, if 80 or even 85, were your top number, the end of your ride, so to speak – how many
I want us to have a love affair. You and me. How about it, my love? I’m inviting you to show up suited, in your tightest emotions thoughts, buttoned up over that raw and wounded chest. Come, let me unclothe you, let me help you out of this world where you are unhappy not
It is okay to feel sad, to fully experience it. It is part of the human condition. There are times that your heart will ache, beneath its beat of gratitude and love for all. It will ache for a present moment you did not expect, as it hopes for, and believes in, better times. Your
My coaching practice is built on more than offering you strategies or solutions. I’ve created it as a space for you to feel truly seen, held, and supported. It is the most important gift I can give to you. No one arrives wanting to find a better relationship, or reconnect with who they are,
Stand your ground. Own it. There is merit in fluidity, beauty in being able to flow as the river does, but there is also bravery in being immovable. There are times in life when the best way for you to move forwards, is for you to not move an inch. For you to have no
There is a phenomenon that will occur in your life, it will descend on you unexpectedly and repeatedly. You’ll wake up one day and make a discovery. An insight so profound and yet so glaringly obvious that you’re unsure if you really have not noticed it before. It’s familiar, even if you cannot place it.
I recently had an experience with a child who passionately wanted something. He asked me once and I gave my answer, which was a yes, or a maybe, or a later, but definitely not a no. What matters most isn’t my exact answer, but what came after it. There followed, from said child, an onslaught
Before you reach for that new thing, release the old. Let go of the things and the people that you believe are keeping you solid and upright, because you know it’s really fear at the heart of that grip. The things you want to attain are not difficult. What’s difficult is trying to attain
Even though you’ve been taught one way to: think, behave, feel, or respond, don’t be afraid to rewrite the rules. If the thought of change enters your head, it means you’re supposed to at least explore the possibility. It’s a subtle calling. History is made by those who step out of line. And
Loiter, my friend loiter. Allow motion to have its wicked way around you, any way it so pleases as you hang out inconspicuous and free. The moon in its shared bed of stars and dark is proficient at curving this way and that complete at all times. Luna, my friend is a hussy of the
Trust yourself and the standards you have set. There are going to be times, more of them, when all around you is a flutter, stormy, battered by waves. Set your bar firmly, and move only when it is not met. Their destiny is not your own, their feelings and reasons, are not your own. If
