Last year my wife and I started our vision board. In no time it was full of expensive toys, beautiful homes, etc.. There were also images that related to the things we wanted to experience, places we wanted to go, skills we wanted to learn etc. Now don’t underestimate the power of images. If you … Read more

If you’ve been following the stories about the fires you would have started to see something great. Several whole communities have been leveled, but the residents of these towns are vowing to rebuild, as are the State and Federal governments. Of course, there are some that will not return, and for good reason. For many, … Read more

This is a city in shock. It is incredibly difficult to see beyond the smoke and the ashes. But we must. Like, finding … Read more

Over the last 24 hours hundreds of fires have cut through land and lives throughout Victoria. Living near the fringe of the city, these fires feel close though there is no sign of them, no smoke, no hint of the inferno that blazes over the hills. Knowing people who live in the areas under attack … Read more

Over months and years, the journey of inner transformation is punctuated with moments of intense change, times when we are intensely aware of tremendous growth. Awakening to new levels of power is exciting and liberating. Like all times, these times also pass, even though in the euphoria of the moment we feel unstoppable. As the … Read more

About 15 years ago I experienced my first spiritual awakening. It followed a period of great turmoil and unhappiness. One of the first realisations was that my internal state was not determined by my experiences, or the situation outside of my self. All that mattered was the manner in which I dealt with the world; … Read more
