It’s hard to believe that it’s now over one month since I left ‘my other life’ in a shipping container and boarded Virgin Flight 043 with no real idea what lay ahead for me.  In one way it seems like months and yet another, just a few short days.  Wow!  What a ride it has been!!  Imagine stepping onto the biggest emotional rollercoaster… say no more!  My ego and all of its fear based stories terrorised me for 16 full days and as much as I tried to practice what I preach, no amount of emotional healing would suffice…  I felt like a huge lead weight had been dumped on my shoulders and each time I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, I couldn’t help but notice how this stress was taking a toll!  I looked old, I felt old… I never feel old!!…I felt heaviness in the right side of my heart and a weight, as if someone had cut me open in the middle of the night and placed a brick in my gut!  I smiled yet it was just a motion.. I did not feel joy!  I always feel joy!  So much fear rising to the surface, gripping terror that had me lying awake at night wondering “what the heck I was doing and just what the bloody hell I had done!”… yet weirdly enough, in all of this, I had the knowing that somehow, I was right where I was meant to be… 

Me, Myself and I

 
Surrounded by nature, I will soon be embarking on my 8th 10 day water fast, which means nothing but pure fresh spring water, straight from the rocks for 10 whole days and 10 whole nights. 
I am so excited to be doing this 'fast' in beautiful Bali, away from everyone and everything, except a few locals, the trees, the waterfall and the monkeys :)  It's time to grow, time to 'go within' and face the shadows that still lay lurking there.  It's time to take this 'game of life' to the next level and move forward again on my spiritual journey of life. 
Whilst I am facilitating retreats, I give of myself wholeheartedly, 100%, to those that come to me for guidance and healing and so, every now and then, my Soul yearns for that same nurturing and growth.  I honor that... after all, if I do not, I will be no good to anybody.... a lesson that I in the past, along with many of the guests who end up at my retreats have learned the hard way.  

A poem from my Soul

  To you Goddess warrior, I whisper the song of sweet surrender Stop holding... stop fighting... be soft... be still…   Goddess of the Sacred Temple, who knows hatred not, For you have dared to face the devil within, and slay the demons lurking beneath the shadow of the mind, Delving into the deepest depths of the Dark Night of the Soul and begging to be torn apart, until tears of terror burned the cheeks of the forlorn child within like acid on a silken gown, leaving her exhausted... breathless... silent…

Birds of A Feather Flock Together

  As I watched a flock of birds on the beach this morning ‘being’ with the ebb and flow of the ocean tides… not questioning, not worrying, not trying to work it out… just going with the organic flow of life, merging and moving together as one, a pang of sadness shot through my heart, a sadness for the knowledge of how far from truth we as a human race have strayed.  Amongst the Terns I noticed a single Seagull and couldn’t help but smile knowing that for many years, I, like many others, have felt like that solitary gull and yet today, just like the saying ‘birds of a feather flock together,’ all around the world, people of similar vibration are connecting and even gathering, in order to ‘be the change,’ ecstatic to be cutting free from the ‘old ways’ of consumerism and

Ego Versus Truth   From the moment I opened my eyes I was engulfed by fear and a low energetic feeling as if someone had thrown a blanket of darkness over my Soul, leaving nothing more than a slither of light shining through…...

Passion: One of the 7 Principles of Health

  Let me explain why… 1.30am… ding- eyes are open, an unresolved guilt popped into my head … journey emotional healing session begins, resolved by forgiveness for myself and the other person… bloody hell, we were just doing the best we could with the knowledge and resources we had at the time! How could I still be holding on to that?!
