arrows

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it’s easy to get swept away by the currents of routine and responsibilities. However, taking a moment to set intentions can be a transformative practice that guides us toward a more purposeful and fulfilling life. In this blog post, we’ll explore the profound impact of setting intentions and how this simple act can lead to positive changes in various aspects of our lives.

  1. Clarifying Your Values: Setting intentions begins with a deep understanding of your values and priorities. When you take the time to identify what truly matters to you, you create a compass that guides your actions. Whether it’s fostering meaningful relationships, pursuing personal growth, or contributing to your community, setting intentions aligns your daily choices with your core values.
  2. Creating Focus and Direction: Intentions serve as a roadmap for your journey. They provide clarity and direction, helping you navigate through life’s challenges and opportunities. By setting specific, achievable intentions, you create a focal point that allows you to channel your energy toward what truly matters, reducing the likelihood of feeling overwhelmed or scattered.
  3. Cultivating a Positive Mindset: Intentions are inherently positive, they are future-focused. When you set an intention, you are declaring your commitment to positive change. This shift in mindset can have a ripple effect on your overall well-being. By focusing on what you want to achieve rather than what you want to avoid, you cultivate optimism and resilience in the face of adversity.
  4. Enhancing Self-Awareness: The act of setting intentions requires self-reflection. As you explore your aspirations and desires, you deepen your self-awareness. This heightened awareness not only helps you understand your motivations but also enables you to make conscious choices that align with your authentic self. Wisdom Wheel provides a structure to supporting you to Make Choices.
  5. Increasing Motivation and Accountability: Intentions serve as daily reminders of your goals and aspirations. They act as a source of motivation, encouraging you to take the necessary steps toward their realisation. Sharing your intentions with others can also create a sense of accountability, fostering a supportive environment that propels you forward.

In conclusion, setting intentions is a powerful practice that can positively impact every facet of your life. By clarifying your values, creating focus, cultivating a positive mindset, enhancing self-awareness, and increasing motivation, you embark on a journey of self-discovery and positive transformation. Take a moment each day to set intentions, and watch as the subtle shifts in your mindset lead to profound changes in your life’s trajectory. Embrace the power of intention-setting and witness the magic it can bring to your daily experiences.

Exploring Geopathic Stress: Unveiling the Mysteries Behind Uneven Growth and Well-being

seedling in soil; Exploring Geopathic Stress

Have you ever marvelled at the lush vegetation in one area while, just a stone’s throw away, plants struggle to thrive? Have you pondered the apparent absence of insect life on one side of a mountain, in stark contrast to the vibrant biodiversity on the other? The mysteries of uneven growth and life’s vitality in different locations may find an answer in the intriguing concept of geopathic stress.

And it’s not just about plants and insects. Have you ever experienced the uncanny ability to concentrate effortlessly in one spot, only to find your focus waning when you shift just a room away? Or perhaps you’ve wrestled with persistent physical symptoms that seem impervious to all your efforts – disrupted sleep, heightened stress levels, chronic fatigue, and even health conditions like headaches, anxiety, and a compromised immune system. What if these symptoms mysteriously improve when you find yourself in a different geographic location?

As you contemplate your next holiday destination, choose a place to live, or decide on the perfect house or mountain to explore, it becomes fascinating to consider potential disturbances in the Earth’s energy field. Some of these disturbances could play a significant role in affecting not just our physical well-being but also our energetic health. These disturbances, whether natural or man-made, collectively fall under the umbrella term – Geopathic Stress.

Geopathic stress is more than a theoretical concept; it’s a phenomenon that not only impacts us as humans but also extends its influence to affect all living organisms. The Earth’s energy field, disrupted by various factors such as underground water, ley lines, grids (Hartmann, Benker, and Curry), burial sites, blocked earth energy, caves, tectonic plates, and earthquake zones, contributes to this widespread influence.

  1. Underground Water: One of the primary contributors to geopathic stress is the presence of underground water streams. Water carries energy, and when it flows beneath the ground, it can create disturbances that affect the surrounding environment. The electromagnetic fields generated by underground water can impact human health and well-being, leading to conditions like disturbed sleep, fatigue, and even chronic illnesses in extreme cases.
  2. Ley Lines: Ley lines, the enigmatic pathways of energy that traverse the Earth’s surface, are defined as over-ground energy lines mirroring the sinuous courses of larger underground rivers. Among the most renowned ley lines in Britain are the ‘Michael and Mary’ lines, each with distinct characteristics that captivate the imagination of those attuned to their energies.

The Mary line, known for its meandering trajectory, intertwines gracefully with the Michael line, creating a dance of energies that intersect at certain points. Dowsers, individuals skilled in detecting subtle energies, attest to the unique qualities of each line, with the Michael line exuding solar and masculine energies, while the Mary line carries lunar and feminine energies. Remarkably, many churches find themselves strategically situated along these ley lines, accentuating the profound connection between spiritual and earthly energies.

  1. Grids: Various grids contribute to geopathic stress, with the Hartmann, Benker, and Curry grids being the most commonly studied. The Hartmann grid consists of evenly spaced lines in a north-south and east-west direction, while the Benker grid includes diagonal lines. The Curry grid is oriented at a 45-degree angle to the cardinal directions. The intersection points of these grids are believed to create zones of increased geopathic stress, impacting health and well-being. Resting on the vertical axis of a Curry cross is believed to yield health benefits, showcasing the interconnectedness between Earth’s energy and our well-being.

A crucial distinction arises when comparing Hartmann and Curry lines. Hartmann lines are thought to originate from radiation within the Earth, while Curry lines are believed to derive their influence from cosmic forces, emphasizing the intricate interplay between terrestrial and celestial energies.

Adding to the complexity are the Benker and Peyré lines, networks oriented along North-South and East-West axes. Unlike the Hartmann network, these grids boast a higher density of separate lines, creating a unique energy matrix. Interestingly, while Hartmann lines typically measure around 21cm in thickness, Curry, Benker, and Peyré lines exhibit a greater thickness, approximately 40cm.

4. Caves: Caves, with their unique geological formations, can also be sources of geopathic stress. The energy dynamics within caves, influenced by factors such as rock composition and water flow, can create conditions that affect the surrounding environment.

  1. Tectonic Plates and Earthquake Zones: Regions near tectonic plate boundaries and earthquake-prone zones are susceptible to geopathic stress. The constant movement and shifting of the Earth’s crust in these areas can lead to disturbances in the natural energy balance, potentially impacting the health of living organisms.

Beyond natural causes, geopathic stress can stem from human-made influences, introducing a new layer of complexities to this phenomenon. Some of these factors include:

  • Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs): Generated by power lines, electrical devices, and wireless technology, EMFs are believed by some to disrupt the Earth’s natural energy balance, potentially impacting health adversely.
  • Fracking or Mining: Delving deep into the Earth’s crust through activities like fracking or mining can contribute to geopathic stress, altering the natural equilibrium of the Earth’s energy.
  • Burial Sites: Burial sites, especially those with a long history, are considered potential sources of geopathic stress. Some theories suggest that the energy associated with burial grounds can influence the surrounding environment and may contribute to disturbances in the Earth’s energy fields.
  • Blocked Earth Energy: When the natural flow of Earth’s energy is obstructed or blocked, it can lead to geopathic stress. This blockage may occur due to construction activities, landscaping, or other human interventions. Understanding and addressing these blockages are crucial for minimizing the negative impact on health and well-being.

Detecting geopathic stress involves the expertise of scientists, geologists, or geobiologists who employ sensitive instruments capable of revealing disturbances in the Earth’s crust. Various methods are employed for this purpose:

  • Geobiological Assessment: Geobiologists, specialists in evaluating and addressing geopathic stress, utilize a combination of tools. This includes dowsing instruments and scientific devices such as electromagnetic field detectors and Geiger counters.
  • Energy Healers and Life Alignment Practitioners: Professionals in energy healing, like Life Alignment practitioners, leverage their toolkit to gauge the strength and nature of geopathic stress affecting individuals or environments.
  • Intuitive Assessment: Some energy healers rely on intuition and energy sensitivity to identify geopathic stress. They may use their hands to scan an environment or a person’s energy field, identifying areas that feel different or disrupted.
  • Dowsing: A widely used technique for locating geopathic stress involves tools such as pendulums, dowsing rods, or even a simple twig. The dowser holds the chosen tool, which responds to the presence of geopathic stress by moving or changing direction.
Addressing Geopathic Stress: Strategies for Mitigation and Understanding

Mitigating the effects of geopathic stress involves recognizing and adapting to the disturbances in the Earth’s energy field. While physical alteration of the Earth’s crust may be impossible, various techniques can help transform the energy surrounding these stress zones:

  • Repositioning Furniture: A common approach involves rearranging furniture or beds to avoid geopathic stress zones, strategically altering the living space.
  • Crystals and Stones: Some energy healers utilize specific crystals and stones to neutralize or absorb geopathic stress energies, placing them strategically in affected areas to restore balance.
  • Energy Balancing: Energy healers employ techniques such as Reiki, Feng Shui adjustments, or space clearing rituals to harmonize the environment, alleviating perceived negative effects.
  • Shielding Materials: The use of shielding materials, like special paints or fabrics, may be recommended to block or redirect geopathic stress energies, including technologies like the cell phone card.
  • Relocation: In extreme cases, where geopathic stress is severe and persistent, energy healers may advise relocating to an environment considered free from such stress, though this is a last resort.
  • Space & Home Alignment: Aligning the energy within a space with the occupants’ own energy, through deep Organisational/Home Alignment, can contribute to creating a healthier living environment and improving overall well-being.

Geopathic stress often stems from previous traumas on the land, such as burial sites or sacred areas, and should be considered when selecting building sites. The pollution of ley lines worldwide by electromagnetic frequencies and trauma has led to initiatives aimed at re-potentising these lines, potentially restoring natural energy flow and reducing negative effects.

Jeff Levin suggests practical measures, including the use of Vortex Cards, and Vortex Generators, to balance a house’s energy affected by geopathic stress.

The Importance of Mitigating Geopathic Stress:

Proponents of the geopathic stress concept argue that prolonged exposure to these energy disturbances can lead to various health issues, from disrupted sleep patterns to chronic health conditions. Home Alignment, utilising Vortex technology, becomes a powerful modality for optimising living spaces, fostering property sales, addressing communication issues, and more.

Recognising the interconnectedness of internal and external influences, Home Alignment works with quantum physics principles, encouraging internal shifts to manifest positive external changes. The Vortex Cards emit specific quantum fields, transforming the space and promoting the well-being of occupants, communities, and the planet.

Awareness and Significance:

The concept of geopathic stress, while not new, aligns ancient wisdom with modern science. Various cultures throughout history acknowledged Earth’s energies’ impact on health, and contemporary research continues to bridge ancient understanding with modern insights. While geopathic stress may not be a household term, increasing awareness empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their living spaces, considering the potential influence of Earth’s energies on overall well-being. Understanding specific ley lines and their positive or negative nature holds promise for benefiting individuals and communities, and this knowledge is gaining traction in contemporary discussions.

So, the next time you find yourself marveling at nature’s abundance in one location and questioning its absence in another, or when you grapple with persistent health issues that seem to defy conventional solutions, consider the possibility of geopathic stress. Awareness of these energy disturbances is a crucial step toward making informed decisions about our environment, ensuring a harmonious balance between our physical and energetic well-being.

Cultivating Empowered Connections: Nurturing Better Relationships with Other Women

Two women embrace

In a world where women are often pitted against each other, fostering positive and supportive connections with other women is essential for personal growth and collective empowerment.

How do you think and act?

Do you believe things can change? Do you think you can change? Do you expect bad behaviour from women colleagues at work or in society? Or do you expect another woman to have your back? What would you do if someone came out of a toilet cubicle, with their skirt tucked in the pants? Would you lean in and say something with a caring heart? “You may need to check your skirt; I think it’s caught.” Or would you let her walk out oblivious into potential ridicule and feelings of shame? If you wouldn’t lean in a quietly say something… why is that?

Dysfunctional relationships

When our relationships with fellow women are dysfunctional, we might find ourselves feeling small, frightened, inadequate, and reluctant to be truly seen. I work with women in groups and the themes that come up repeatedly are feeling unsure, a need to be quiet and not good enough. This sense of not feeling that they belong also can be felt and it can be expressed as I don’t care. We hide our hearts from each other.

Kasia Urbaniak in her book ‘UNBBOUND A woman’s guide to power’ describes our animal body. This is the egoic part of you that wants to keep you safe. You are always in the egoic structure unless we intend not to be in it.  If our animal body is acting scared and frightened, because of your deep routed believes, it will give out signals to those around us. This dysfunctional behaviour we present means that other people don’t feel safe around us. The feedback means, it doesn’t feel safe to us and so the cycle continues to the bottom.

There is an alternative to your autopilot!

There is an alternative, you may not have experienced, but it is available to you, to everyone. You can pause and choose to step into a higher consciousness, a higher orientation out of your animal body. I guide women to access this new way of being in the world through Heal the Sister Wound. This automatically calms our bodies and allows us to turn up fully and whole.

Functional connections

Functional connections can bring about a sense of expansion, joy, enjoyment, and deep connection. Our past human stories, experiences of hurt, betray and deceit no longer define us, they are stories that were intrinsic parts of our lifelong learning. Now you can meet everyone as a unique individual, not your inner projections. There is space for fun, exploring, creating and helping when it is requested. We see each other as whole and capable.

The tools you learn in Heal the Sister Wound need to be applied in your life. Here are some insights into how we can build and maintain healthier relationships with other women.

1. Embrace Vulnerability:

Cultivate a space where vulnerability is welcomed and celebrated. Opening up about your own struggles and insecurities creates an environment that encourages others to do the same, fostering authentic connections.

  1. Celebrate Differences:

Recognise and appreciate the diversity among women. Embrace the uniqueness of each individual, understanding that our differences contribute to a rich tapestry of experiences and perspectives.

  1. Practice Active Listening:

Truly hearing and understanding another woman’s story is a powerful way to build empathy and connection. Practice active listening by giving your full attention, validating feelings, and responding with compassion.

  1. Lift Each Other Up:

Be a source of encouragement and support for other women. Celebrate their successes and offer a helping hand during challenging times. A community that uplifts one another creates a positive and empowering space.

  1. Let Go of Comparison:

Comparison is the thief of joy. Instead of measuring ourselves against other women, focus on your own journey. Acknowledge and celebrate your strengths while appreciating the strengths of those around you.

  1. Foster Healthy Competition:

Competition can be healthy when it encourages growth and excellence without undermining each other. Shift the focus from outdoing one another to pushing each other to be the best versions of yourselves.

  1. Practice Self-Compassion:

Extend the same kindness and understanding to yourself that you offer to others. When you cultivate self-compassion, it becomes easier to extend that compassion to fellow women, creating a culture of support and acceptance.

  1. Establish Boundaries:

Healthy relationships require clear boundaries. Communicate openly about your needs and expectations and respect the boundaries of others. This fosters an environment of trust and mutual understanding.

  1. Collaborate Rather Than Compete:

Seek collaboration over competition. Working together on shared goals and projects can create a sense of unity and shared accomplishment, strengthening the bonds between women.

  1. Cultivate Gratitude:

Express gratitude for the women in your life. Acknowledge their positive qualities and the impact they’ve had on your journey. Gratitude fosters a positive mindset and deepens the connection between individuals.

  1. Be Mindful of Communication:

Choose words that uplift and empower. Mindful communication involves expressing yourself authentically while being conscious of how your words may impact others. Avoid gossip and judgment, fostering an atmosphere of trust.

  1. Lead with Love:

Ultimately, lead with love. Approach your relationships with a genuine desire for the well-being and happiness of the women around you. Love and kindness are powerful catalysts for creating positive and lasting connections.

In a world where unity and support among women are invaluable, building better relationships is not just about personal fulfillment but also contributes to the collective strength and resilience of all women. Don’t let a woman step out and feel shame, be there by her side and celebrate her bravery. Let us strive to create spaces where women feel empowered, valued, and deeply connected, allowing each of us to shine in our unique brilliance.

All changes comes from within. You can access tools that enable you to create functional connections with other women within Health the Sister Wound.

Top Tips on Clearing the Energy in Your Home

Clearing the energy in your home can help create a positive and rejuvenating environment, especially as winter approaches. Here are some tips to help you clear and enhance the energy in your home for the winter:

  1. Clean and Declutter:
    • Start by cleaning and decluttering your living space. Remove any items that you no longer need or that may be contributing to a sense of stagnation. A clean and organised space can help energy flow more freely.
  2. Open Windows:
    • Even in the colder months, open your windows for a short period to let fresh air circulate. This can help remove stagnant energy and bring in revitalising chi.
  3. Use Natural Light:
    • Maximize natural light during the day by opening curtains and blinds. Sunlight has a positive impact on mood and energy. Consider using full-spectrum light bulbs in darker areas to mimic natural light.
  4. Smudging:
    • Use smudging techniques with sage, palo santo, or other cleansing herbs to purify the air. Start at the entrance and move clockwise through each room, focusing on corners and areas with less airflow.
  5. Salt Cleansing:
    • Place bowls of salt in the corners of rooms to absorb negative energy. Discard the salt after a few days, and repeat as needed. Some people prefer to use Himalayan salt lamps for a similar effect.
  6. Crystals:
    • Incorporate crystals known for their cleansing properties, such as clear quartz, amethyst, or black tourmaline. Place them strategically around your home to absorb and transmute negative energy. Clean your crystals to release  the absorbed energy.
  7. Essential Oils:
    • Diffuse essential oils with purifying properties, such as lavender, tea tree, or eucalyptus. These oils not only freshen the air but can also have positive effects on mood and energy.
  8. Sound Cleansing:
    • Use sound to cleanse the energy in your home. This can be through singing bowls, bells, chimes, or even playing calming music. Sound vibrations can break up stagnant energy.
  9. Intention Setting:
    • Set positive intentions for your space. As you clean and declutter, focus on the energy you want to invite into your home. Visualise a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
  10. Feng Shui Adjustments:
    • Consider applying basic Feng Shui principles to enhance the energy flow in your home. Simple adjustments, such as rearranging furniture or adding plants, can make a significant difference.
  11. Warm Colors:
    • Decorate with warm and inviting colors, such as reds, oranges, and yellows. These colors can create a cozy and energetic atmosphere, counteracting the cold winter weather.
  12. Candles:
    • Use candles with soothing scents to create a warm and comforting ambiance. The soft, flickering light can also add a sense of coziness to your space.

Remember that clearing energy is a personal practice, and different techniques may resonate with different people. Feel free to experiment with these tips and adjust them to suit your preferences and beliefs.

If your home still doesn’t ‘feel right’ or your energy is low and it doesn’t replenish, you may need further help through Home Alignment. Get in touch and we can work together to do a deep energy cleanse on your home.

Unveiling the Essence Within: Exploring the Depths of Inner Wisdom

Exploring inner wisdom as a guiding force
Introduction:

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, amid the cacophony of external influences, there exists a silent guide, an internal compass that often goes unnoticed — our inner wisdom. What is this elusive force that whispers in the quiet recesses of our minds, urging us to make choices that align with our deepest values and aspirations? In this exploration, we embark on a journey to understand the concept of inner wisdom and how it can serve as the guiding force in our lives.

Defining Inner Wisdom:

Inner wisdom can be viewed as the profound understanding that arises from the integration of our truth, souls aspiration and intuition. It is the innate knowledge that resides within us, often overshadowed by the noise of external expectations and societal pressures. Unlike conventional knowledge, which is acquired through education and experience, inner wisdom taps into a deeper, more intuitive source that transcends the boundaries of logic.

The Soul as CEO:

The metaphor of the “Soul as CEO” suggests that our inner wisdom is the chief executive officer of our lives. This metaphor invites us to consider the idea that, much like a CEO making strategic decisions for a company, our inner wisdom can guide us in making choices that are in harmony with our authentic selves. It encourages us to listen to the subtle nudges of our intuition, allowing our inner CEO to lead us toward a more fulfilling and purposeful existence.

Cultivating Inner Wisdom:
  1. Mindfulness Practices: Engaging in mindfulness practices, such as meditation and self-reflection, can create the space for us to connect with our inner wisdom. By quieting the mind and turning our attention inward, we can tune into the subtle signals that guide us toward wise and conscious decision-making.
  2. Self-Discovery: Understanding our values, passions, and purpose is essential for unlocking our inner wisdom. Taking the time for self-discovery allows us to peel back the layers of societal conditioning and connect with the core of who we are.
  3. Learning from Experience: Every experience, whether positive or challenging, contributes to the reservoir of our inner wisdom. Reflecting on past experiences, extracting lessons, and integrating them into our understanding can enhance our ability to make informed and authentic choices.
  4. Trusting Intuition: Inner wisdom often communicates through intuition — a gut feeling or an inner knowing. Learning to trust and follow our intuition, even when it contradicts external expectations, empowers us to make decisions aligned with our true selves.

Conclusion:

In a world filled with external noise and distractions, tapping into our inner wisdom becomes a journey of self-discovery and authenticity. The concept of the Soul as CEO invites us to recognise and honour the guiding force within us, leading us toward a life rich in purpose and fulfillment. As we cultivate our inner wisdom, we embark on a transformative journey that aligns our choices with the true essence of who we are.

Exploring what Home means

Exploring what Home means

I have been delivering a masterclass at a transformational retreat. The retreat theme was sanctuary and within it, my session was exploring what home means. Each of us has our own ideas of what home is, what it feels like and what our ideal home would be. This masterclass enabled participants to explore home from two different perspectives – their humanness/ego as well as their greatness/soul. What do you think they found by explore what home means?

Home is thought of as something outside us. We can become engaged in making our home look or feel a certain way. There are endless programmes, magazines and article influencing our views, enticing us to update the look of our home! But when we stop to reflect, we sense there is a deeper truth. We aren’t humans having a spiritual experience, we are souls having a human experience. Our body is our home. This is where the soul resides. When your soul is in your body you feel at home.

Where our beliefs are formed

In the masterclass we first explored our behaviours and beliefs from our humanness/egoic perspective. We each build our own unique perception of the world from our experiences, often at a young age. Our childhood is where we learn how the world is and what we need to do to stay safe and in favour with our caregivers. Subconscious beliefs are created from the meaning we have made up about early events in our lives.

Beliefs about Home when we are in our ego or humanness

People think that making your home look better is going to make them feel better on the inside.

  1. “When I have a… ‘fill in the blanks’… hot tub, new kitchen, seven bedrooms, gold taps and knobs etc I will feel happier. These items may make you smile for a while, but happiness is not an external thing. These are pretty distractions that make your space more like the ideas and beliefs you have about what is a good/impressive home.
  2. You always need the next thing to make your home feel more like a nest, the safe space that you desire inside. More soft furnishings, cushions, throws etc.
  3. If I change the way I look, I will feel happier with myself. New shoes, dress etc. but how many new shoes do we need? This is a body equivalent of changing the furniture to feel happier.
Participants shares and awareness

When participants explored what Home meant from an egoic/ humanness perspective, they were expressing the external. The work of upkeep and a space to displaying artifacts. Where the home was whether it was in a town or countryside and where in the world. The look of it – because it needs to be nice for others to visit. It needs to be clean and safe. Things that make it comfortable were also part of this perspective.

The masterclass then shifted up a gear as we connected to our soul and welcomed that into our body. This enabled everyone to attain a higher perspective.

Beliefs about Home when we are in our wholeness or soul perspective

Home is inside you; it isn’t a place.

  1. When you reconnect with your soul and allow it into your body, you feel at home.
  2. You are in the present. You open yourself to your soul-perspective, a higher perspective.
  3. Wherever you are, you feel at home in yourself. Inside a building or outside in nature.

Home can be a single place, but you can also move around the planet creating a new home in the next place you move to. How you feel inside affects how you feel about your outside environment. Your soul perspective is about you, in presence. Your human perspective is based around others and the external.

Participants shares and awareness

From the perspective of our greatness, inner wisdom or soul perspective we explored what home means. This was expressing our wholeness. What was obvious was the complete difference in feeling. People felt centered, grounded, in the present moment and love. They had a physical experience of being in the body and being connected to the earth, to nature. An aspect of the soul perspective of home, was reinvigorate your energy. Other words participants shared were growth, learning, competent, quietness, accepted, authentic-self, truth, acceptance and safety.

Assimilation through powerful creating

The masterclass developed each individual’s self-awareness. They embodied this new consciousness through a powerful creative process. Creativity connects the head and heart, empowering them to assimilate and align into this new level of awareness.

How can you apply it in your life?

Finally, we discussed what this new level of embodied awareness meant in their life. For people who were ending relationships and moving on from their current abode, they recognised that home was inside. There perspective had changed and they felt more relaxed as the need for a certain outcome had disappeared. In their bones, they know that whatever happened it would be okay. They felt safe inside themselves. Another participant recognised that her beliefs about what a good home should look like were linked to childhood experiences at an aunt’s house. She had subconsciously created a home that looked like her aunt’s house. What she realised was that it wasn’t the furniture that was important, rather the feelings at her aunt’s home. This was a place where her authentic self was accepted, there was truth and safety. Her understand moved from the look to the values of the space, that made it feel like home.

This new awareness, whatever your circumstances is deeply calming, it relaxes the nervous system.  Look at what home means in your life at present and what it means from a soul perspective. I encourage you to re-orientate to a soul perspective. When your soul is in your body you feel at home.

What are you going to do with this new awareness?

Journal – How can you apply it in your life?

If you want to experience this masterclass in person, you can book me to deliver it at your retreat, business or school. To explore this and more topics, join Creating Freedom, a series of masterclasses that develops your self-awareness and allows you to transform through a powerful creative process. This process connects your head and you heart and brings them into alignment.

Creating freedom in your life by adding structure!

Creating freedom in your life by adding structure

What do you think when I say structure? Do you recoiling, feeling it will end your spontaneity and fun? Or do you breathe a sigh of relief and think thank goodness, I know where I am within structure, it stops the chaos! Or are you somewhere between the two opinions? Your beliefs about structure, will shape how you perceive things, so I ask you to be open minded. as we explore creating freedom in your life by adding structure.

Suffocating Structures

Structure isn’t meant to be a torniquet cutting your life off. It shouldn’t stop you expressing your uniqueness. Structure shouldn’t be an endless set of rules that make you feel unable to do anything and powerless.

Organising your life

The way you set up your life, will determine the output. If you have created organisational structures, such as places for your things and a route of putting your keys in the same place each time. You have made a structure that enables you to be effective with your time and energy, rather than wasting time looking for things. You can get more done in your day and avoid feeling stressed and frustrated looking for your keys again!

Structure is a framework

Structure is a framework. It is an opportunity for you to be yourself within the framework. The framework is there to create sensible healthy boundaries which will enable you to create balance, rather than excess. Structuring your time, ensures you prioritise time for the things that are important in your life. This supports you to stop wasting your life on things that deplete your energy.

Be intentional

It is time to take back the power in your life. Stop being carried along by the currents of other people’s agendas and get clear on your priorities. Use structure to carve out time for the things you want in your life.

It starts first thing in the morning

Each day is a new day. It is a new start. It is an opportunity to do things differently. Think about this as a clear piece of ground. What do you want to build on it that day? Do you know what you want to build during your day? This is your intention. Without intention and structure, your day will turn into chaos, a feeling of responding to other, always putting yourself last.

What if you get up in the morning and start by laying firm foundations for your day? Make time to listen to your inner wisdom and set your intention from a heart-cantered perspective. Move, stretch and get the energy flowing in your body. Get a sense of what you need to do first and take action.

Firm foundations create stability

How you start your day ripples through the whole day. Don’t start in responding-mode as this is the direct route to over-whelm! Prepare the night before for your day and give yourself time in the morning to reconnect with your soul/inner wisdom and what you want. Lay firm foundations that prioritise you. No matter what happens during the rest of the day, you will find it easier to come back to the quiet centered space in yourself that you cultivated in the morning.

Start tomorrow!

Tomorrow is a new day; it is also a great opportunity for a new beginning. Use this as an opportunity to do something different. Choose what you will do. Choose just one thing. Are you going to: eat a healthier breakfast, go outside and connect with nature, a grounding practice and connect with your inner wisdom, make your choices for the day, week or month or do 15 minutes of yoga? Make the preparations the night before so you guarantee success – including setting your alarm to go off earlier!

Take action and create a firm foundation in your life

To create a new habit, you need to repeat it. When the alarm sounds in the morning get up and create the day you want. Take action and follow through with your intention. Structure your day to move you to where you want your life to go. If you keep repeating this structure, you will find you have transformed your attitude and your life. You may also notice that you feel less stressed and more empowered. You will create freedom in your life by adding structure!

Creating a firm foundation for your day stops it wobbling. There will be external factors, but you will feel more capable to cope with life’s challenges. You have prioritised yourself and that makes your life feel more balanced. If you want to find out more about living with empowering structures, join Compass Community or Wisdom Wheel or connect for an exploratory chat.

It was my need to find balance and harmony in my life that took me on a self-discovery journey. Because I burned-out at work, I needed to find a better way to live my life with more ease and harmony.

Over years there had been an imperceptible gradual creeping change in my beliefs. Work had progressively expanded to become the most important thing in my life: my self-definition and my sense of self-worth. Not achieving the results I wanted at work, made me stressed, I felt I needed to do more, and more. It was a never-ending jobs list. My sense of self had become synonymous with output, pleasing others and making money. My thoughts had changed, I was pessimistic, and my health was affected. The long-term stress resulted in poor skin, hair, nails, feeling fatigue and my immune system was compromised leaving me susceptible to any viruses, colds etc. I had adrenal fatigue. This wasn’t sustainable.

I seemed to have headed down a wrong road in my life. Numbing out how I felt, I kept going because I was earning money for holidays and paying the bills. This focus meant I didn’t notice I was going off-track, until I got so sick, I couldn’t go any further. I was stuck in a cul-de-sac with no way forward. It was time to review where I was in my life, and I made choice to change!

I wanted a good life and to find a better way of living. It’s taken me several years of testing this recipe, but I have found a formula that nourishes and energises. It brings balance and harmony to my life. Others are using it to transform their lives and I want to share it with you.

What is Wisdom Wheel?

What makes this different and why is it effective?

Wisdom Wheel has 8 Aspects. Integrating them into your life brings joy, satisfaction, balance and deep self-awareness.

The difference between Wisdom Wheel and other wellbeing activities is this creates a web in your life. The 8 Aspects are like the spokes of a wheel, they strengthen your life holistically. One isn’t enough, you may feel some wellbeing benefit, but doesn’t create a balance. These 8 Aspects are invisible threads, that create an inner wellbeing net that stabilises and resources you, enabling you to stay in your center for longer and longer periods.

What does that mean?

Have you ever watched a spider spin a web?

When you think of a spider, without a web, it can be blown about in its environment. It is in a responsive-reactive state. When you are also in a responsive-reactive state in life? Your mind is searching for problems, worrying about the future or mulling over issues from the past, “I wish I had” or “I wish I hadn’t” loops. Life can feel like you continually responding and adapting to other’s agendas and schedules. There’s a sense of often being knocked off course mentally, physically and emotionally by external factors.

To stop being in this responsive state all the time, the spider creates a web. This creates an invisible structure that is strong and flexible. Wisdom Wheel is this strong invisible structure that you can weave into your life.

Wisdom Wheel is like a spider’s web

Every spider weaves a different web. And the same is true with people who embody Wisdom Wheel. The environment they live in, their interests and unique self-expression will influence what they create. Each will be different however the fundamentals of the structure are the same.

First the spider needs to choose to move out of the hanging around and hiding option to creating. The first thread of the web represents ‘Making Choices’ the first Aspect in Wisdom Wheel. This is where you cultivate the practice of setting intentions. Intentions are in effect the decision to stop being a passenger in life. You are taking the wheel and deciding where you want to go.

This thread takes the spider to the middle of the web and it reconnects you to your inner wisdom. Making Choices, guides your actions to create a satisfying and joyful lifestyle.

As you bring another thread into your life, and anchor it, you are able to naturally create more balance. I recommend ‘Appreciative Enquiry’ as the second aspect. This practice supports you to review your life and notice what’s good. If you keep practicing, you will be getting real honest data about your life, the breadth of your life not just a few niggles/issues/ heath challenges that you gain all your attention. There is much more to your life, so much to be grateful for, and this will help you change your mindset. Life will feel easier and more abundant.

Prioritising yourself in your life.

Once you have anchored these two practices into your life over a couple of months, I suggest you start a couple more Aspects. These will strengthen your inner web. Choose from: Movement, Something New, Community Connection, Soulful Practice, Be Creative or Adventurous Journey. Just add the Aspects into your life and you will feel the way they elegantly move your life to holistic balance. You will feel resourced. You are prioritising yourself in your life. This isn’t being selfish, this is self-care.

Monthly Review Sessions

When you review your activities on the Wisdom Wheel Planner, you will be amazed at what you have done! Many people tell me, in our Monthly Review sessions, that they feel elated and a sense of pride. Before the Review, they may have felt flat, but after reviewing their month, they feel a greater sense of wellbeing, as we acknowledge their achievements, on their journey.

A spider’s web has the radial strands that go into the center of the web, these are the 8 Aspects. The spider then starts at the outside edge and connects the strands. By fill in the boxes each month on the planner with the activities you have been doing, you too are creating threads that connect and strengthen your invisible web. The activities are developing skills and attributes. Your choices, the activities you choose to undertake will express your uniqueness and values.

What happens if I can’t do all 8 Aspects every month?

A spider’s web isn’t perfect, there may be a hole where a thread is absent, but the overall structural integrity isn’t compromised. If you keep missing the practices, you will notice the difference. People report the fact that they like Wisdom Wheel because it simply shows them what is missing if they aren’t doing all 8 Aspects. It simply highlights what is needed in their lives when the look at their planner. There is no need to work it out. It is simply a choice. This is a journey of self-awareness; discovering how to live a balanced, satisfying and joyful life.

Testimonials

“My world has been non-stop, it’s something else on top of my busy life. When I look back, it’s helpful to see on one piece of paper a record of my achievements. Focusing on the positives.”

“Maybe I think it needs to be more difficult- but it doesn’t, it just happens. Just being part of something, the monthly meetings, it just ticks along in the background without much effort.”

The shadow side of the Sage Archetype

The unfeeling judge is the shadow side. They are cold, heartless and often pompous. Casting their judgement of others and saying they are not good enough. This makes them overly critical with a lack of feeling or empathy. They are addicted to being right.

Healthy Sage energy is sceptical, but using discernment, they seek the objective truth.
