Dedicated to my mother and the wonderful two little boys in our family who represent the next generation arriving.
Love is such a powerful emotion
Love
Love heals, makes you laugh and generally make life worth living.
Loving is for all, not just your partner, family and friends. Often the most unlovable people are those that gain the most value from your love, be it a smile, a kind word or an offer of help. Receiving love as well as giving love balances the passing of energy. Sometimes it takes practice to receive love. Many are good at giving but do not practice receiving. To be balanced you need to do both.
What can anger do to us?
“Like anyone else, I too have anger in me. However, I try to recall that anger is a destructive emotion. I remind myself that scientists now say that anger is ba…d for our health; it eats into our immune system. So, anger destroys our peace of mind and our physical health. We shouldn’t welcome it or think of it as natural or as a friend.” Dalai Lama

Chanting meditation: is sound an energy that can be used to increase our connection to the ‘inner you’, our families, our communities, the universe?
The material world is made up of matter which breaks down to atoms and protons. Protons are light and the ultimate energy source. Sound and the vibrations it makes are also energy. Therefore can sound as a form of energy influence people and the environment in which it operates?
You can see our emotions in our eyes
Others can feel our emotions like love, anger, honesty. They can also see it in our eyes. People in love typically look directly into each others eyes. It’s a very intimate gesture. Eyes reveal so much about ourselves.
When you want to know if a person is telling the truth, look into their eyes as they speak. You will be able to see the answer. A person’s eyes are very revealing.
Science now shows that the colour and patterns in our eyes directly relate to our personal characteristics like compassion. It’s interesting that science is catching up with what we have always known intuitively.
Can someone else read your emotions?
20th century man was adamant that each person was an island and we lived our lives in separateness. The 21st century has started to challenge this idea. Think what it’s like to be in a room with a person who is angry or disapproving of you. You can feel their anger without them even saying a word.
Finding your Soul Family through painting your Soul Map
Workshop – Sunday 27th November, Notting Hill Gate, London W2 4NY
“At Soul Family we seek calmness and the wisdom to be found there. We do this by building and painting a map back to our unconscious mind, higher self or soul. Soul Family seeks to show others how to do this too.”
The one day Soul Family Introductory workshop gives a taste of constructing your first Soul Family picture. No artistic skills are required. No sharing of your lessons and relationships with the group. You colour a geometric shape, much as we used to do as children when we learnt to paint by numbers.
