Empowering you to become healthier and happier
Empowering you to become healthier and happier


Life is like a jug of vinegar. On the outside it is nice to touch, nice to look at, but sometimes inside the vinegar can be much sharper than you expect. It can be great if you like vinegar on your fish and chips but we don’t always like to have vinegar splashed all over our food and life is very much like a jug of vinegar. Each and every day we have different things thrown at us. Each and every day we have moments that are sweet, pleasant and cherished. Then there are other moments that are much sharper and much harder to bear. The very nature of life is that we do not know what is coming. There is uncertainty all around us and we desperately try to cling to a little bit of control and a little bit of certainty to keep us focussed and thinking as positively as we can. But … [Read more...]

Love should be patient and love should be kind. Love should be all consuming and love should be all around each and every one of us. It is so easy to become consumed - to become consumed with fear, jealousy and even hatred on occasions. In these difficult times we need to focus on love. Love conquers everything. We are all equal and that is needed at this moment in time. Every person has a contribution, every person has a worth. No one person is worth more than another. We all have qualities, we all have attributes and they have to be recognised, valued and appreciated. To be loved means everything. To be loved you cannot put a price on and to love yourself is really, really important and so powerful. Because when you love yourself you are able then to project love outwardly … [Read more...]

We all need to be kind both to ourselves and to others. Each and every day we are harsh and we are most harsh to ourselves. We have such high expectations of our self and we worry about things that really do not warrant worrying about. If we all take a step backwards and take some time we can see what really matters and what does not matter and very often, by taking this time to reflect and look at our inner needs, we realise that actually what we worry about, what causes us great anxiety and even dread, really doesn’t warrant worrying about. We need the basics in life yes and there are indeed many people who are struggling to achieve this at present. However, there are many people who are not struggling with the basics and this is where it is much easier to make that transition. … [Read more...]

Every recipe has its ingredients in order for the outcome to be as we intend. Every recipe has to be organised, you could just put it all together and it might be okay, but the chances are much greater when you know what you are doing – perhaps when you have done it before or perhaps when you know on the balance of probability that what you are doing is reasonable. At the moment we have recipes but we have recipes for disaster because nothing is balanced, nothing is being organised, everything is being thrown in. And we cannot afford for things to be thrown in because lives are at stake and when people have their own agenda thinking purely of their own cake nothing works. One huge cake is enough to be shared by the entire world. There is more than enough for everybody to go around. … [Read more...]

Love is all around us if we look. Love is all around the world if we look. But very often our eyes are blinkered. We are so busy focussing on what we need to do or have to do then we don’t look beyond what is immediately in front of us. Across the world there are so many wrongs that are taking place at this moment and it has taken this extreme measure to be able to get people’s attention and to get people’s attention in the right way – to open their eyes. To open their eyes to the possibilities that there can be freedom, there can be a different world to what exists at the moment. There is so much disparity – the rich poor divide is huge and it is unfair and it is wrong and we need now to be able to focus and look at what is right, what is ethical, what is morale and to be able to do … [Read more...]

When we have belief in our self we also have belief in the world around us. The world around us can be a very scary and intimidating place on occasions. There is so much uncertainly, so much that we just don’t know about life and it can be really scary on occasions. But when we focus on ourselves, when we focus simply on ourselves, we can find contentment and when we find contentment everything else in the world doesn’t seem quite so scary. By finding that inner peace, that inner calmness, you will be able to project to the world how you feel, not how you think you want to be perceived and there is a big difference here. Because when we feel inside that inner calm and confidence, we exude confidence we exude calmness, but when its false, when its misleading, that just causes inner … [Read more...]

Stones can be large boulders or they can be tiny. But both are as equally as important as each other because they all play a part. They all play a part in the overall goal whether that is to build a wall, fill a railway line or anything else for that matter. Each and every stone is unique just like every person is unique. Lots of different facets, attributes, skills, qualities and it is important as people that we recognise these different attributes, qualities and skills within each other. There is no need to be competitive because there are plenty of opportunities for everybody. Very often in today’s world we measure our success in monetary terms and this results in us then having a pecking order trying to strive and reach up that ladder, up that pecking order, in order to … [Read more...]

It is customary to mark special events. Today is indeed Earth Awareness Day and there is no better time to bring your awareness to the current state of the world. Our planet is desperate. Our children are hungry, thirsty, unkempt and on occasions taken advantage of. No one wishes to be in or to live in poor surroundings. No one chooses poverty it is very often life’s unfortunate happenings usually created by man. By working together poverty can be overcome - no one will go hungry and no one would suffer needlessly. By combining resources everyone can be provided for satisfactorily. It will take time for those in power to realise the error of their ways for they have spent an inordinate amount of their lives focussing purely on generating their wealth as that is their measure of … [Read more...]

I received these words from spirit this morning and I hope you enjoy them too: Easter is a time for reflection. We all need time to think about and to evaluate our life, where we are going and where we want to go. We need to consider our values, our sense of responsibility and very often we get side tracked putting what we think are our priorities at the top of our list. However, our priorities are very often other people’s priorities. We can be brainwashed into doing what we think we should be doing and with Easter being a time for reflection it is a good time for everyone to reconsider their priorities. Our families must come first. We work to support our family, to feed our family, to enable us to do things with our family. But when we don’t have our health, we don’t have work … [Read more...]

Loneliness is a terrible thing. We can all feel lonely even in a crowded room. To be lonely is to be isolated, to be alone, to feel that no one cares, to feel that you do not matter, to feel that your life isn’t worthy, your contribution is irrelevant. To feel lonely means helplessness. Helplessness equals vulnerability and vulnerability equals despair. We the human race have the capacity to change this. We can unite by sharing love and compassion. Love and compassion on a grand scale and by sharing love and compassion on a grand scale we can enable significant change to take place in our world. We have the ability but choose not to at present. I talk of the majority of course. However, the time is coming for change, significant change, because it needs to happen. Lessons are … [Read more...]
