Our species have struggled with the “seven sins,” for longer than the clock has ticked. And it seems to me that these negative behaviours all have two things in common: they are triggered by trauma and rooted in Fear. When something happens that we can’t rationally compute, fear sets in, and it can morph into […]
Now, don’t get me wrong, I’ve always been a sucker for a good fairy tale. Just like millions of others, I grew up knowing the stories of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and all the other super-star princesses, and I loved them all. The girl is in trouble and then, Prince Charming rides in to carry her […]
As we search for a deeper understanding of our existence, trying to grasp the Big Picture of what’s really happening out there, there is a wealth of information at our fingers. We can surf websites, turn on the television, listen to the radio, and a plethora of voices, opinions, and reported activities are instantly available […]
‘Don’t talk to Strangers’ is practical advice that’s drummed into us for our own safety when we’re children, and the reasons for this don’t need to be questioned. However, as adults, if we want to play with Synchronicity and allow for profound messages to arrive magically in our lives, it’s critical that we learn the […]
When we experience a spiritual breakthrough in life, we can assess what’s really happening to us is that we’re transcending the dimension that we exist within, and that our reality is changing as our mental clarity sharpens. When we live solely in the material world of the ego, our feet are planted firmly within the […]
If we think of Life as an ocean, and ourselves as water particles existing within it, I think it’s easy to imagine how we are all actually one. The energy of Life carries us along; sometimes it’s rough with us, sometimes it’s soothingly calm – at times, we’ll get pulled down by undercurrents into complete […]
Why do we exist? I believe this is the most important question that we can answer during life. And whilst I’m convinced the Meaning of Life is something that has been known previously by ancient civilisations, it feels clear to me that over the centuries, we’ve collectively lost our focus and forgotten the true nature […]
As I write this, I’m very conscious that if I’d undertaken this activity centuries ago, I would have most likely been hanged or burnt at the stake for the words I’m about to document. I’d have been seen as a witch, a heretic, crazy, and perhaps even a danger to society. But thankfully the year […]
When we pass neighbours in the street and we’re asked how we are, it’s often easy to say “I’m good, thanks,” and offer a smile, even though, at a core level we may be feeling low. It’s certain that human life will bring trauma, and we may be given a few days off work to […]
It was 2006, I was twenty-three years old, and one Saturday afternoon my good friend, Jess, and I ventured out in search of some fun. After spending the week working in offices, we’d decided that going camping for the night, somewhere close by, may provide a nice backdrop to our weekend. So, with very little […]
