How to Truly Take Care of Yourself!

Have you ever had the thought? My life just doesn’t seem to make sense! Is it possible for life to make perfect sense? I both believe and know it is possible for each of us to have our lives make perfect sense. It's possible to come into a deep connected alignment with our daily life and consciousness so that every moment is a walk in ease and grace, and that you know without any doubt that you are in the right place at the right time, the synchronicities all line up and are no longer a surprise.

Conscious Aging: A New Model

“Elder: a senior member of a tribe who has influence or authority” Aging can be a conscious journey into your own lived and experienced Wisdom. This involves developing the inner resources to adapt to ageing instead of denying it; it is taking a step to ensure that the next phase of life is filled with self-discovery and deliberate choices.

Meditation: the Great Remover of Fear

Why Meditiate? Keeping on with daily practises for spiritual enlighmentment, knowing what your tue purpose is, and using that deep sense of agape love to guide your daily activity. "Better than power over all the earth, better than going to heaven, and better than dominion over the worlds is the joy of the man who enters the river of life that leads to Non-Being." –The Dhammapada (~300 B.C.) Meditation is the great remover of fear, the breaker down of belief systems that don't serve your higher mind. The liberator from misery and suffering.

The Best Way to Age & Forgive!

Recently I made a trip to the supermarket, and was delighted to be able to help an elderly couple with some of shopping’s little snags such as pulling the trolley out and reaching for higher goods. They reminded me of my parents, and I so wanted to go home with them. As we chatted, the woman said to me” “Don’t get to be 85, it isn’t fun, I am not sure I signed on for this”?r

Don't Let Aging Stop You

Getting old isn’t easy for many of us. Neither is living, for that matter and neither is dying. We struggle against the inevitable and we all suffer because of it. It seems we have to find another way to look at the whole process of being born, growing old, changing, and dying, some kind of perspective that might allow us to deal with what we perceive as big obstacles without having to be dragged through the dramas of life.

There is Nothing to Fear when Aging!

The fear of aging is inbuilt in most people, due to our materialistic philosophy. Which is not our desires and ownership of things per se, but our idea that reality is limited to what we perceive through the five senses. This then divorces us from a spiritual experience, leaving the understanding that “if it is shown us then we will believe”. This belief has a profound effect on how you might view the cycles of our life from birth through maturity, aging and onto death. Viewing life through a lens of sight taste smell hearing and touch, death would be the end of the road.

Compassion

I was having morning tea with friends and family on the weekend, and it was such a delight to catch up and be reminded of the love we share. As we sipped coffee in the sunshine at Nobby’s Beach Sinking into the compassion of extending love while basking in the warmth of communion, the depth of my gratitude for these people and that they would hold me in esteem as a matriarch of the group, moved me to what felt like an explosion of my heart.

Do You Consciously Consider Downtime?

I was just this morning reading an article by Wendy Squires on the “Mamamia” FB page, where she addressed her need for what I call downtime. This quote is useful & I don’t know who wrote it but it sounds like a practicing psychologist

The Pause, Mindfulness

Mindfulness “LOVE AFTER LOVE The time will come when, with elation, you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror, and each will smile at the other’s welcome, and say, sit here. Eat. You will love again the stranger who was yourself. Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life, whom you ignored for another, who knows you by heart. Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, the photographs, the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror. Sit. Feast on your life.” -Derek Walcottr

Yes! I am Aging

I am getting older. Of course this is true for everyone, but it arrived for me so suddenly and I was a little unsure of how to be the best host to this arrival. I realized I am entering my Elder years and am now embracing the changes. My own parents gone and my children young men and women with their own lives and though I am loved and involved with them I feel my purpose and my position in life’s broader context to be shifting. I love the grandmother in me responding to the new babies that have arrived.
