YOU CAN RUN, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE
We can change locations, jobs, relationships, homes, communities, when they're not working and I believe there is a time for those changes absolutely, especially if it's really not for you and you've given it a good go of trying to make it work. However if we keep changing when shit gets hard, when it's not working how we wish it to be and it feels easier to just move on, then something more is required to be seen, required for you to pay attention too. If we keep turning up

ARE YOU LISTENING IN?
Good morning… Are you listening in? It will be quiet, oh so quiet...to hear, you will have to slow down just a little, pause for just a little, it will require you to stop pushing, stop forcing just a little, thinking all the time, thinking there is always more important things to get to first…well how about you put yourself first for just this moment to tune in, listen in to what it is that’s really needed for today, and possibly the next and the next after that. Living in

REMEMBER YOUR FUTURE
"Remember your future" he said, as we sat on the beach sharing a maté. Words that made me take a pause for a moment and contemplate it's meaning. Remember the dreams, the promises you once told yourself you would do, complete, walk towards, yet other things took pride of place or simply they were just not meant for that moment and over time we let them slip from our mind. It's never to late, for as long as you walk this earth, the time is still available for you to go ahead w

OUR INTENTIONS REQUIRE PURE DESIRE.
Our intentions require pure desire. A desire that feeds our soul and purpose in this world and not to prove, show, mask or make ourselves look more successful in life. When our intentions don't come with a pure desire for the better of ourselves alone and what we truly desire within ourselves and instead we make moves into how others see us or feel about us, the outcome will always be different. The outcome won't fulfil us in the way we thought it would. Yet with pure intenti

WANTING MORE CAN MEAN LESS
The other day I sat talking with a lady about life and she was saying how she’s not the kind to want more, she is loving being with her kids and enjoying the moments of their childhood, she said she feels so content with their life, where they’re at and what they have. Every now and then she reflects on what society pushes…to keep reaching, wanting, for more, but it’s just not her, them as a family. Instead she’s soaking up every aspect of her kids as they won’t always be thi

YOUR TRUTH IS IN YOUR ALIGNMENT, YOUR ALIGNMENT IS IN YOUR TRUTH
Your truth is in your alignment, your alignment is in your truth. The moment you step out to what doesn't align, you're no longer living in your truth and you will feel it. The tension in your body, the frustration, anger, bitterness will start to rise, the holding of your breath, the loss of power in your engine (your energy), the lack of interest, the change in your language & what you accept will all be signs to let you know. Appreciate these feelings, never make yoursel

LOOK AT LIFE LIKE A SMORGASBORD
Look at life like a smorgasbord. There are so many options in this world, things are flying at us left right and centre trying to grab our attention, telling us we need this, that and the other, we are overloaded with choices. New things coming out all the time promising to improve our life in some way, to make it easier, faster, prettier, you name it, there's a new shinier thing that will have your life work better. With all of this, many have lost touch of what is truly ri

SO YOU HAVE A VISION?
Hey you... You have that vision inside of you and you feel like you're the only one who can see it, feel it. Many don't or won't understand it, understand your dreams and desires and so it's hard for them to support you fully in it. You're not alone, so many people feel this way, experience this in some way throughout their life, they wish for so much more for themselves yet what holds them back is the lack of belief in their ideas or ways of being. Well you're the first per

SITTING IN THE VOID
The void will always be filled, If you’re willing to sit in the void. If you try to fill a void before sitting with it, you’ll just be repeating much of the same. If you are sitting in the void, never rush, seek or force to fill that void either, for if you do you may be bringing in what is not really for you. For what is for you is never forced, hard to come by or feels heavy. What is meant for you will step into your path gracefully with ease and feel light. Once you know
