Be fully present or be free?

In general, I find paying less attention to anything that separates me from the present moment, especially thoughts, which tend to be about the past and future, helpful.

Collaborative exploration

"Physician, heal thyself"

I’m my own best client. Most of the positive changes in me and my life are due, in so far as anyone can tell, to the work I have facilitated for myself and I don’t ask clients to do anything I haven’t done. (more…)

Intuition initiation & matrix energetics

Since Darren Eden (darreneden.com) is launching his Intuition Initiation workshops in the UK in Brighton (my back yard) I listened to a tele-seminar with him. From this brief introduction to Eden’s work, there appear to be many similarities between Eden’s approach and Matrix Energetics (ME), such as :- (more…)

Moving into creative stillness with Suprapto

I recently spent 6 days with Javanese teacher - Suprapto. This was a profound and delicious experience which is hard to put into words. As the week progressed, I found myself sinking deeper into my body, heart and being. At the same time, I connected at a deeper level with the people I moved with and the environment, including trees, the ground and some very ordinary chairs! (more…)

How to be ageless

1. Focus on the present, not the past or future

There was a time, oh tender elf, when you were poetry itself, Christopher Morley

When we are very young, we give little if any thought or attention to past and future but rather, we live in the continuous now. In doing so, we were fully present to our experience (rather than our thinking). (more…)

What to do when the law of attraction isn’t working

1. Surrender/love what is

When we resist what is, even subtly by thinking it ’should’ not be like this or feel a need for something to be different, we keep ourselves from being present. When we are not present we live in our minds. We can make this seductively pleasant by thinking or visualising what we want but, if that’s all we do, it will interrupt our direct experience and enjoyment of life and keep us from knowing what is actually possible for us and how to enable that to happen,

How to be more feminine

Unhappy medium

The feminine principle has been suppressed for millennia. In recent decades, we have also learnt to suppress the masculine and relate in a safe, neutral way. Relating in a neutral way is expedient for all of us at times, but part of the richness of life and opportunity of this time, is for all of us to develop a wider spectrum of strengths and choices, and dance more freely with others, especially in intimate relationships. To dance we have to be willing to be and express something other than neutral. In doing so, we help others express more of themselves. In particular, when we are more feminine, we leave space for others to be more masculine. (more…)

‘Follow the follower’

Theatrical improvisers are encouraged to ‘follow the follower’, which allows scenes to evolve or be co-created organically. "Follow the follower’ is also a useful approach to life, allowing us to work with life, rather than be passive and/or fight it (and, sooner or later, lose). (more…)
