The 7th Deadly Sin
I just found out that the original 7th deadly sin was sadness. Just wondering, would we have more unashamed focus upon the pursuits that bring us joy and peace if the 7th deadly sin had remained sadness? In my experience, being in a safe environment & actually going to the sadness brings the feelings to […]
Purification of memory
I didn’t ever imagine to be quoting Pope John Paul II in this blog, but here goes… For the new millenium he posed that we aim for purifying our memory of the past. There’s a zillion pages on the web about it, but what I’ve taken it to mean is the power of reflection, and […]
Who who who who who who who who r u?
Who are you within your doing? When you are doing stuff, who are you? I had a recent client session where the person had a great ah-hah around their beingness whilst at work – you know those ah-hahs where you basically fall off your chair in amazement. Yes they contributed. Yes they were […]
Pregnancy and beyond
Think of pregnancy. The first 3 months is really when the most is happening. It’s also (from the outside) when it appears that not much is happening. As in the woman isn’t showing yet. Those that operate from more yang energy – the masculine – seem to have more of a problem with this; they […]
What are you slagged for?
Seen that show Mad Men, set at the start of the 60’s? It’s an American period drama and the things that stand out as incredulous to watch and witness are the roles of women in that workforce and era, and the constant smoking – in the office, the boardroom, every meeting. Yuck! Jump 20+ years […]
Sabbatical power
Hello blogging world – I’m back after my sabbatical 🙂 The brief update: incorporating more of what I love into my life to have more balance, fun, peace, love and ease. And to stand up and share that I am ready. A cool theme I’ve been playing with both in the training room, with coaching […]
Flutterbies
I’ve just been in an intensive workshop for 7 days. If I had to sum up my greatest learning from that time it would be that we are all butterflies with spectacular wings. Yet we cannot see our own colours. Think about it, a butterfly can’t see just how spectacular it’s wings really are. At […]
My eggs
On the weekend, standing in line at the market to buy some scrummy free-range eggs, I was amused to watch people’s selection habits when it came to their eggs. I’d guesstimate that 96% of the eggs for sale at this organic stall were brown-shelled eggs. The remaining 4% were white. But did you know that […]
What is it with appearance?
Walking round a supermarket last week I was gobsmacked to see a Lindt chocolate spruiker standing in the isle giving away samples of Lindt. Actually, I wasn’t gobsmacked about the fact that they were there giving things away, what did surprise me was the uniform that they were wearing, which was a chef uniform with […]
Zymurgy
I discovered a new word this week; zymurgy. Which is the science or study of fermentation. Fermentation produces many things, wine being one of them and vinegar being another. Are you fermenting and distilling high level thinking or low level thinking right now? My suggestion to you over this week as a new season approaches […]
