Survival Mode - Am I in it?

Yes.....I lived there for sometime. Now, however no. Kia ora my friend, thanks for stopping by. I send love to you & I'm here to let you know you are not alone. Ya know I think "survival mode" for us all, is something that we can all relate to at some stage in our lives, likely in different degree's also.  Perhaps in the present or perhaps looking back in hindsight.For me personally....I didn't really know what it was or had even heard of it when I guess I was in the thick of it. I...

Embracing our innate potential

New Moon Blessings my friend! Whilst the energy is in general thought of as low in relation to the New Moon - It is also a time of planting seeds of intention. Just like placing a dormant seed into the earth - So too can we plant these seeds of intention to nurture through out the coming Lunar Cycle to bring into fruition.This can look any number of ways - This is your mahi ora - Life work, to figure out what it looks like for you. Mostly though - it is a commitment to yourself & the carving...

MY FASTING JOURNEY..

Well it was pretty simple actually. My cousin & his whanau came over to stay for the weekend (approx 7-8yrs ago) & he mentioned to me that he had begun fasting.

He chatted about it & I thought; Well the sounds simple I will give it a go!Honestly in the beginning it was weight focused for me. I wanted to manage my weight better. I have always been someone who e...

Reflections in alignment with the Lunar Cycle

Playing the long game - The higher perspective

The long game or the higher perspective manifests in a multitude of ways in our lives on the daily.For the first time in 4years the other day I ran up our local mountain - Maunga Kakaramea - Rainbow mountain. I ran past an elder on the track & she said to me "wow look at you go, your doing awesome". I said thanks & ran on, then stopped & turned around & said - "I'm doing this now, so when I am your age I can do what you are doing" I want to be this lady. Not her specifically...

Sitting on the edge of a new life in the same place

This is the way I live my life now.Sitting on the edge of what I know, dangling my feet over the edge into the unknown.How does one reinvent oneself? - I now know, through a thousand small choices each day.Its been a messy journey of discovery for me. First, had to come honesty about things I guess I didn't really want to be honest about.. Looking in that mirror at all facets of self - The parts of me I loved & the ones that I hid from myself & others. Shining light on all aspects of sel...
