Claiming Back My Body

I have been a master of lending my body in the service of others – of allowing others to do what they need to do with it to survive. I have seen my body as something that is not just for me, but also for everyone – in a way that has been at the great expense of me.

I would never knowingly abuse another person, or allow another to be abused, but I have willingly accepted abuse from others, and have certainly abused myself.

I have done this in many ways: in my role as the ‘good daughter’, ‘always available lover’, ‘do-anything-for-you friend’, ‘24/7 mother’, ‘caring doctor’ and ‘devoted wife’.

Well, all that is about to change. Continue reading “Claiming Back My Body” →

Hiding My Natural Voice

I remember as I child I used to sing all the time, making up little tunes and adding words to go with them. I remember adults commenting to my mother about what a happy child I was. I also look back at how that love of natural expression became crushed when trying out for the school choir around the age of 8, when I was told my voice was too deep to sing with the other girls and I would have to stand at the back and sing the second part with the boys. Whilst this may not sound bad, the way it was delivered was so harsh and judgemental that it made me feel crushed, and my natural exuberance for singing became something that I started to withhold and keep in check.

Magic of Knowing… We are All One & the Same on the Inside

“We are all one and the same on the inside.” I have heard this, and I have expressed this, on many occasions! We have many external and superficial differences such as being a man or woman, boy or girl, short or tall, of diverse faiths, multiple hair lengths, hair colour and styles, different coloured eyes, different skin colour types, races, countries, the list can go on and on…

 With these many differences, we can either choose to see only these differences and many more, and thus see what our eyes are taught to see and only what our eyes see, or we can choose to see that there could be another way to see things – a way that is without the need of relying solely on what our eyes see!

How contradictory is that? Continue reading “Magic of Knowing… We are All One & the Same on the Inside” →

Religion, Philosophy and Science = Revelation

If we consider the dominant approaches to tackling life’s big questions there are three that we use most often – Religion, Philosophy and Science.

Some people are more focussed on religion, some on philosophy, some on science and some use a combination of all three. However, it is rare to see a simultaneous combination of each. In fact, in some circles this unification is frowned on and discouraged.

So let’s explore this a bit more. Continue reading “Religion, Philosophy and Science = Revelation” →

A True Man – Serge Benhayon

As a woman who has suffered much at the hands of men (and given as good as she got at times!), I never thought that I would meet a true man, even though I knew in my heart what that meant and how it would look and feel if I ever stumbled upon one.

And then I met Serge Benhayon.

Serge Benhayon | Founder of Universal Medicine

When I met Serge I was a hurt, hard, bitter, middle-aged woman, struggling to raise two small kids and run a business. Life was hard, work was hard, I was hard and I had all but given up hope of finding peace and quiet, let alone joy, in life.  Continue reading “A True Man – Serge Benhayon” →

The Way of The Livingness – The Light Outside Plato’s Cave

Before we explore The Way of The Livingness, let’s for a moment reconnect to Plato’s allegory of the cave. It is a story of a people trapped in a cave from birth, only able to look at one wall. There are masters of this cave who have a flame behind the prisoners that they cannot see. The masters stand behind the fire so their shadows are not evident but they place objects in front of the flame, casting shadows on the wall. The prisoners, having seen nothing but these shadows since birth, think that this is all there is in life.

For a prisoner to escape, they must first confront the light of this flame and allow their eyes to adjust to the reality of what they see: this light can be so intense that nearly all turn away and return to the wall. The reality is that few prisoners pass this light and even fewer exit the cave, but if they did, they would adjust to the new light and begin to see the ‘real’ world around them.
