The Band of Feminine Awakeners Have Arrived - by Sophie Bashford
“There is a Band of Women who are now coming forward as a force to be reckoned with. The women who are asked to be a part of this movement have been responding to an inner calling for many years. What these women have in common is a deep urge to remind humanity of what has been lost: commitment to the Divine Mother and all Her Powers of healing, grace, compassion, trust, intuitive knowing and heart-centred awareness. Each woman will have a unique role to play in this Plan, but they all share a common theme in terms of what...
The Tale of the Starfish
IT ALL STARTED WHEN… A young girl was walking along a beach upon which thousands of starfish had been washed up during a terrible storm. When she came to each starfish, she would pick it up, and throw it back into the ocean. People watched her with amusement. She had been doing this for some time when a man approached her and said, “Little girl, why are you doing this? Look at this beach! You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!” The girl seemed crushed, suddenly deflated. But after a few moments, she bent...
The Two Branches of Gratitude
I love stories. Who doesn't?. Stories have the ability to open doors to experiences and lessons that we might not have experienced, but we can relate to. Opening our minds and hearts to new perspectives and lessons. I came across this story last year by Brother David in Gratefulness.org while researching for my mindfulness 8-week course. And I felt in love with it. And I hope you love it. There are two branches of Gratitude. One is Gratefulness, and the other is Thanksgiving. The Gratefulness branch is when the Bowl of Life is so full that it’s almost overflowing, but not quite....
The Best Version of Yourself
What the heck does that mean? A dear friend was asking me recently: what the heck does it mean to be the best version of yourself?. This wasn't a question due to a midlife crisis or moment of enlightenment, but as a reflective thought and consequence to the continuous bombarding of the media (social or not social). So to be the best you can be, means that you must have different versions of you I guess. But also presents a challenge... which one is the best??!!. And to be honest, who are the others and where are they??!!. So I promised her...
Jin Shin Jyutsu
I really love this exercise as part of Mindfulness practice. The reason why is that we not only get the benefits of the ancient technique but we can also use it as an anchor to the present moment. The key of this exercise is to focus in the the contact between the fingers. We know that we have achieved our desired outcome when we feel a pulsation in the finger we are holding and/or the hand holding the finger. Now, personally I find that instead of a pulsation in a specific point I go into a full flow of energy...
