Music to uplift your soul

I had the pleasure of meeting Bridget Wolf. She is lively and fun plus a lady of many talents. Music was her original love but this has now blossomed into many spiritual gifts including healing and giving messages from past loved ones.

I love her music and find it very uplifting. Have a listen and see for yourself. The one that makes me feel really good is Life is Precious. It really resonates with my soul and reflects my views on life being a gift. I have downloaded it so I can listen to it again whenever I want to. read more

At the last moment we decided to go camping, something I have not done since my 20s. We bought some kit and the tent only arrived the day before we left. We had no time to practise pitching it before we needed to do it for real to sleep in it. read more

Everyone is overridden by

thoughts; that’s why

they have so much

heartache and sorrow.

Jalal al-Din Rumi

Having a strong intellect and the ability to reason things through is valued in society. Yet I observe the pressure the school system puts on our young people to ever obtain higher grades. I do wonder if we are robbing them of their childhood. It should be full of natural curiosity and discovery. Yet there is little time at school or perhaps at home to allow this to happen.

As a child, I enjoyed lovely days of ‘messing around in the garden or park’ looking at flowers, plants and insects, building camps and playing with water. Are children still able to regularly do this and come into bed tired and dirty? read more

Feel good: tips on being uplifted

It is very easy to worry over challenges in your life until you do not feel good. In this state it is all too easy to lose perspective and make the challenge seem even larger than it really is.

How do you relax and get your mind and body back into balance?

Here are some tips on finding balance in your life enabling you to regain perspective. Life will not seem so scary when you are able to truly appraise your challenges.

Music and dance

When we dance together, we repeatedly practice taking steps together to stay in tune with the music, the energy around us gains greater harmony and so collaboration is easier, and agreements are more likely to be adhered to. read more
