Knowing what I need


Hello Beautiful Soul

Each day brings something different. Energetically and otherwise. I’d like to think I’m getting better at recognising what this is and yet I’m not sure about this. Not to dismiss myself or my capabilities in any way, merely a recognition that there is still a long way to go. In terms of learning. Growth. Expansion. The never ending road.

Right now I am ready for the road to slow down or stop. And with that intention, desire and absolute necessity, I am putting down some roots for a while. To see if this is a country in which I could live. And spend some time creating and integrating.

I am currently writing to you from a café in the National Gardens in Athens, with my Bluetooth keyboard linked up to my phone. It seemed like exactly the right place to be today. In nature. Amidst the trees.

We each have the capacity to give ourselves what we need. The first step is to recognise the most beneficial ways in which we can support ourselves.

Sometimes the simplest change can make the biggest difference. And the biggest difference of all is the unspoken announcement to yourself that you are worthy of your attention. This arrives quietly with every self supporting action and choice.

For when we consciously pay attention to our needs and act upon them, even in a small way, it signals something much more fundamental. Both to our inner worlds and to the Universe too.

It is the turning point in our journey. One that signals that we recognise we are worthy of our time. Our attention. Our support. And most especially, our Love.

The more we practice this kind of attention, coupled with appropriate action, the more we find that the world rises to meet us in unexpected ways. I invite you to notice. To be more consciously conscious each time you do something that genuinely supports you and reflects your need for your Love and care. Watch how the world offers this back in some shape or form.

This is a deliciously delectable game to play. One where you can only win. And through an increased awareness, one which pays extra dividends.

Blessèd Be.

Being still for a while gives me the opportunity to create in different ways and I am looking forward to hosting a journalling workshop for all of you who are interested. Thank you to everyone who expressed their interest last week.

I am recording a special meditation this coming week to support you in your practice whether you are a beginner or an experienced pro. If you’d like to receive that and haven’t yet registered your interest, simply let me know.

Leaving the coast behind, I have spent most of the past week in Athens. And it gives me great pleasure to share a different kind of view of Athens to you. One through my eyes, rather than the normal photos you'll find. From the street art and street graffiti to pavement culture and city living. EnJoY!

And of course, the National Gardens...

As I have been wandering through these gardens with their winding paths I have been reflecting on my journey. Where I am now. And where I have come from. No matter our present circumstances, we nearly all have a dream. Or at the very least, the desire for something to be different.

It’s our present that creates our future. And rather like paying ourselves attention through curated support, how can we each pay more attention to that which we do want?

If you have no idea what is next or what you currently desire, that too is a gift, for it invites a greater investment in paying attention to your Self. To recognise the heart of who you are. And to support yourself exactly where you are.

I am wishing you a week of walking towards a greater expression of you. Whatever that may look like right now. And if ever in doubt, consider the greatest way in which you can currently support yourself.

Sending SO Much LOVE from my Heart to Yours

Hello Beautiful Soul I have started writing again on Medium1. It’s been something I’ve been meaning to do for a while. To get into a new rhythm and share more of my work with the world. I’d been put off by the tech side. That part of me that said “I don’t know how to do this.” It felt like every time I looked at it, something had moved or was different. Like the goal posts were moving too fast. Until my determination kicked in. And I was energetically in the right space. An aligned...

Hello Beautiful Soul It’s Sunday morning as I write to you. There is a stillness in the air after last night’s storm. A dramatic affair with lightning criss crossing and cracking against the sky. Today marks a special occasion for me. A moment of consideration. Reflection. And recognition. Five years ago today, I sent out the first edition of this newsletter. Originally entitled ‘Manifesting Miracles’ it has evolved as I have. A perfect reflection of my own journey for all the world to see....

Hello Beautiful Soul Is it time to re-member to breathe, to pause, to let out a long slow exhale? The energy has felt intense the last few days. Like an unexplained urgency pushing forwards, requiring action. And as much as we all always have things that we need to do, more often than not there are few that require our urgent attention. It has felt very elemental. The energy of fire that wishes to create, burn, transform. And yet what is it really time for? Maybe what it’s really time for is...
