I went to Ikea for the first time yesterday. Somehow I have avoided it for so long, but what a joy it was! Like a kid in a sweet shop I “helped” my fiancee design a kitchen, picking bench tops and doors and handles and soft closures and colours and textures and oh, I do

When I started meditation I wanted my past to go away. I haven’t had a bad life in comparison to many, but that doesn’t matter. When it’s you and your mind, comparison to others is useless. When the mind bites, it bites.

Headless chicken mode? Is when you are running around like a headless chicken – all over the place, but without direction. I’ve worked in many different workplaces, and met many different people, actually in a few different countries, and the curious thing is how fast some people can get.

The best thing you can do for yourself is to take an honest evaluation of where you are at. Everyone has at least one area where they’re not fully firing. Where they’re not very good at. There are places (to be brutal) in your life where you down right suck at. Take some time and

Before I discovered the power, ease and simplicity of Ascension meditation … Was that a blatant pitch in the first line? Seems like it. You have to realise that I am so biased … I am so friggin passionate (sorry dad, got carried away there) about making things easy for you who say you want
