Remember the past, it’s gone.I like to play with words and this is what I am doing here. At the time, I was finding it too easy to remember things from my past which were not good experiences.

Of course, sometimes we find there that there are stepping stones along...

When we reject part of ourselves we feel rejected.It can be very tempting to push away the parts of ourselves which we do not approve of. Yet, I notice that when I judge part of myself and push that part away as being “not okay” somehow, then that part feels pain. Guess who ultimately feels that...

During the spring of 2015 I was took the lead in organising the first TEDxFindhorn. There were people involved with far more experience than me in organising events. Yet despite me encouraging them, no suggestions were coming from them about how we could best run the event. It was only when I made s...

In ancient times a man was pushing a hand cart along a track when it got stuck in deep mud. He pushed and pushed for a long time, but he could not get his hand cart out of the mud. He was getting very angry and frustrated at how impossible it was to push the cart. After a while he thought to himself...

This really wonderful little book, author Ulrich E. Dupree, is deceptively simple. Much is packed into it that is not obvious at first glance. The Ulrich presents Ho’oponopono in a heart-felt way, rather than in a very mentally stimulating way. He does not go into a lot of details, long stories, or...

I have put together a new Self Help Guide. It is a handy page opposite emotions (ie lists negative emotions with their positive opposite) Opposite Emotions Self Help Guide.

Really like this video by Vonetta Logan at Tasty Trade on the US corporate debt (with implications world wide). It makes some interesting points about what could really be funding the recent growth the US stock market. Many US companies are borrowing heavily and are using that money to fuel a rise...

Truly excellent. This is a wonderful set of CDs by Bronwen Stiene and is relevant to anyone interested in becoming more centred, happier and at peace.

Just like any writer of an unauthorized biography the author, Danny White, did not have the advantage of direct access to will.i.am (William James Adams). However, unless you are an avid follower of the news about Will.i.am – and know most of the story so far – it provides interesting insights into...

This book is about a lot more than Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / M.E (Myalgic Encephalopathy or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). There are implications for a whole variety of ailments which have viruses as a trigger, but as the book mostly sticks to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome therefore I will too.Viruses a...

I read on the paper the other day the story of a man who took his computer into a computer shop for repair only to find himself arrested for having child porn on his computer. The man may well be guilty, but when I read something like that I do not automatically assume that they really are guilty an...
