When will me make healing a priority?

Our culture & society seems to have us intent on pushing forward, overcoming challenges, always being on the go, persisting, staying motivated, etc, etc, etc.

While these are all necessary elements in the process of creating health, wealth, success, and happiness, they're only a piece of the puzzle, often blinding us to the need of the counter, of resting, relaxing, letting go, and healing...

Our planet has been sick. The environment, the economy, war… Continue

Does your spine tingle with dread when the post arrives? Is your credit card red-hot from constant use? Do you have nightmares about queuing for the dole? If the current economic crisis has fanned your financial fears into full-blown panic, then it’s time to take a look at what’s really going on.

In a crisis like this, we blame the banks, bad investments and dodgy government. We feel powerless, angry and resentful about what’s been done to us, beyond our control. But what we don’t realise is th… Continue

[Have you written a book but been unable to find a good literary agent? If so, you might enjoy this. I actually sent it to a few agents but, strangely, never got a response. Not even a giggle. Very sad.]

The Humanity Index is a way to gauge your willingness and capacity to be a decent, fully functioning, powerful human being — with a sense of humour and with the magnetism to attract what you want.

(If you’re too jaded to fill it out, or if you just can’t find the time because you’ve got 5,000 friends… Continue

I have been and continue to be a huge supporter of Barack Obama. My kids call me Omama. For the first time for as long as I can remember it was actually a pleasure to vote for the President of the United States. I was so disillusioned when George Bush was elected in 2000, the process was painful and embarrassing and the result disastrous. When the country re-elected him in 2004 I was just exasperated and depressed. The worst part was that it became so clear to me that I lived in country where th… Continue

"There is a Celtic saying that heaven and earth are only three feet a part-but in the ‘thin places’ the distance becomes even smaller. A thin place is where the veil that separates the sacred from the pedestrian is so thin that one is able to catch a glimpse of the mystery beyond. A thin place is anywhere our hearts are more open to the ‘more’-when we feel the distance we often put between us and the divine evaporating."

But let me back up a bit so this story can begin to make sense. I turned 5… Continue

Since I have found discussions in the "media" largely less than satisfying and the "official" focus typically cyclical- I invited a few people to help take a look from different perspectives.
