People often ask me to teach them how to be more spiritual. I don't believe this is something that can be taught, it is more something that happens when you live your life as a sharing, caring and loving being to everyone and everything around you. It happens when you are honouring yourself, others and the earth, and by showing no judgements or prejudices. It happens with every breath and in every step we take - in everything we do!

Last month I read an article about a woman who drank 3 litres of water per day for 4 weeks and how much of a change it made to her life. I realised how guilty I can be of not keeping myself fully hydrated during the day and thought I would give this a go for 4 weeks, to see if I notice any difference in myself.
Whilst my own experience with this, wasn't quite as noticeable - or remarkable - as the woman in the article, I certainly did notice a vast difference in overall energy

The Yin and Yang symbol represents a balanced interplay of pairs of essential, but opposing forces, each containing some component of its opposite.
This generates a cyclical, eternal ebb and flow of the activities and qualities of each member of the pair.
Example of Yin and Yang pairings:
push / pull
hard / soft
light / dark
in / out
up / down
salty / sweet
control / chaos
loud / quiet
white / black
heavy / light
give /

Did you know that the Gregorian calendar has a poem matching each month with its birthstone? These poems were apparently published by "an unknown author" in 1870.
Gregorian Birthstone Poems
By her who in this month (January) is born
No gem save garnets should be worn;
They will ensure her constancy,
True friendship, and fidelity.
The February-born shall find
Sincerity and peace of mind,
Freedom from passion and

This may or may not upset some people, but it's something I need to say - to put "out there"!
I am always reading articles, on the internet and in papers etc, about bettering the environment and/or people's health, etc etc etc..... While I am definitely all for this, it really does bother me that most things I read begin with, "Countless numbers of Americans ....", or "Stress in America ....", "??% of Americans ....".

The Thinking Man in my garden - where I like to do readings and attunements from!

Someone mentioned the word "industry" to me the other day, in relation to what I do. It took me aback a bit, because I had never thought of what I do as being an industry. In fact, "industry", makes me think about hard marketing, advertising and sales. It makes me think about the push for more customers, clients, students etc,

What words do you use when you have something to do, or think about, in the future? You know, when something happens and you think, "Oh, I'll ????? about that in the morning / next week / when the time comes."
Think about this, very carefully, because it is the very words and the power behind them that can change a great deal about the way you feel about that thing you are going to do, when the time comes to do it.

I was going through some old clothes, clearing out my wardrobe the other day. It was lovely finding some favourites from when I lived in other countries. It also got me thinking about how we so easily fall into the practice of wearing things that "fit in" with our whereabouts. I used to joke about wearing a particular "uniform" whenever we moved, because of the different customs and/or weather conditions of the places we have lived, but now I realise that

How often do you simply follow your instincts and have things work out for you?
Last week I had to go and get my eyes examined. I knew that my eyesight had been getting a little worse, so when the results showed that I needed to wear glasses for VERY long distances - e.g.: for driving etc - it didn't surprise me. I also need to wear glasses for close-up too - e.g.: when I am jewellery making and for those times when I want to read labels!
Well, at the time of my eye exam,
