Every Day Gets Better

My Mother was born on this day in 1917. I often ponder on what she would have made of the world today, but I already know the answer to my musings. She was strong, focussed and incredibly resilient. She had to be - she had two toddlers who were born just before and during WW11. (I was born ten years later). She had already experienced the death of her Continue Reading

Oh my dear fellow humans, I am concerned for the many of you who are allowing your fears to rule your days. Yes, times are challenging - absolutely, but as much as our normal human rights are being taken away from us (I live in outer Melbourne, Australia, with many disruptive issues going on), it is imperative we remain calm, optimistic and hopeful for a Continue Reading

Throughout history, since humans inhabited the Earth, fear, anger, hatred, fighting and all manner of disagreements between people have been part of society. And, this will continue for all time to come. Why is it like this? Why can't people get along and show kindness, understanding and forgiveness? Admittedly it's harder to extend these gentle Continue Reading

With so much more uncertainty around us than is usual, I've noticed more people feel somewhat compelled to follow news, the media and other sources of current info. This of course, will exacerbate already growing fears. Yes, times are strange, things are different and of course we need to keep aware of situations and events that may affect us Continue Reading

There's such a lot being written about kindness these days. Kindness has become the new fashion. But is it just another trendy fad making influencers and the like look cool?

With some exceptions depending on where and when you went to school, to know and live by your values isn't usually taught in the education system. It's loosely Continue Reading

How do you earn your income? I'm not meaning to get personal or ask prying type questions, but I believe there's probably never been a more important time for us to question not just the product choices we make, but also how we generate our income. There's many extremely wealthy people who give large sums of money to charities but sadly run businesses Continue Reading

All day every day you're doing so well! 😀🎉 How often do you stop to think about that?  Too often we can auto pilot our way through the day not even noticing or considering all the good we do in big and small ways - please remember they ALL count!  It's not about ego, going 'wow, look at me and how great I am'. It's just quiet recognition to help you to Continue Reading

You can go deep into what your life values are - there's been huge studies and much written on this topic. For me - I keep it simple. Here's just a few examples. I love my body and mind so I value both with my daily habits. I follow a healthy, vibrantly alive organic vegan nutrition plan. I meditate daily, practice QiGong, spend quiet time in Continue Reading
