19 CONNECTIONS by Sharyna Sharman

We are each challenged to go beyond who we believe we are, into the vast unknown, and bring through more of what we fully are. “It’s the gift waiting inside our troubles,”… This gift is at the heart of every challenge, every frustration, every encounter with another of life’s roadblocks … “The gift waiting inside our troubles knows the way.” Our learning comes from remembering to listen more acutely, to “lean in” to actually hear what is being offered right now. And, it’s often in our darkest moments when our deepest transformation takes place. So how can we know what we don’t know? How can we listen with our hearts into regions we have not yet ventured? How can we open up to this vast, infinite unformed and let it present its gift of learning and insight? The only thing that stands in its way is the belief, the thought that we already know this … whatever it is before us. But how can we possibly already know this fresh, new moment? We cannot yet know it, it’s never presented itself before. Our challenge lies in the releasing of our judgment, our preconception, our belief that right now is the same as it was “then”. Never … when we finally come to see this, we are called to relax back into this moment, and let it realise itself now, for all that it is offering.

Listen with all your being to what this moment is saying … and seek out a way to “see” what is not yet seen, even if all appears as it always was. So, how do we clearly see and hear what is offered right now?

“Shift your attention from words to silence and you will hear.” – Nisargadatta Maharaj With love, Enza Vita & Leo Drioli

ALWAYS ALREADY FREE - BY ENZA VITA

Based on Enza’s own experience, Always Already Free is a guide to discovering the deepest truth about who we are. In this book, the author presents her own personal direct encounter with the awakened state and guides the reader from the seeking process through the integration of spiritual enlightenment into everyday life and reveals that enlightenment is not a faraway dream, intellectual knowledge or even an experience but the direct realization of our true nature always available here and now. “While it’s true that we are always the Self”– says Enza Vita “if this hasn’t been truly and directly realized, this knowledge won’t do us any good. Just knowing that there is no gate to pass through doesn’t mean that we are at the end of the search, not if we are still standing outside that gateless gate. Realization is not about you, the wave, realizing it is ocean. The ocean realizes itself in you and reveals itself to have never been just a wave.”

“If a book had a soul, then this book would be brimming with Spirit. Leo has a unique way of conveying deep truths using simple, yet beautiful language. His words follow a direct route from the mind to the heart, and can touch anyone, no matter where they are on their spiritual path. ” – DENISE LINN, author of “Soul Coaching” EVERY MOMENT’S A MIRACLE - BY LEO DRIOLI

With freshness and a unique blend of spiritual insight, poetry and simple life wisdom, Leo Drioli draws our attention to everyday occurrences in his daily life, which offer insights together with simple techniques for attuning ourselves to the natural and dynamic inner movement of our own lives, which is the key to finding joy both within and without. Reading this book will help you to witness every moment in your life – even those that seem filled with pain or conflict – in another way, a way that brings a sense of unity rather than separation and fear, plus a deeper, truer, more satisfying life in this world.

Leo’s songs come from the heart, capturing insight and wisdom teachings, yet crafted as pop songs.

Buddha House Hosts

Venerable Robina Courtin

Adelaide - 13th & 14th June 2015

As Andrew Harvey and I sat on my balcony overlooking the sea in May last year, talking about all things Divine late into the night, he shared with me the wonderful story of his meeting with the Dalai Lama. It was 1989, just at the time that His Holiness was to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. At the end of two glorious hours with His Holiness, just as he was about to say goodbye, Andrew plucked up the courage to ask him his most burning question. “What is the meaning of life?” What happened next was ground shakingly profound, and to honour the accuracy of Andrew’s story, here it is in his words, taken from his book ‘Heart Yoga’. “I shall never forget his roar of laughter at my question, and how he suddenly fell silent. He stared deep into my eyes, and said, in a loud voice that seemed to come from his belly, “The meaning of life is to embody the Transcendent.” My whole being shook as he spoke. It was as if an electrical current passed up and down my whole body. I felt my body bursting with a strange new power that shocked me by its intensity. In the weeks and months that followed, I found myself returning again and again to that moment of parting and to the Dalai Lama’s answer. Nothing could have surprised me more, I realized. If His Holiness

had said “The meaning of life is to enter the Transcendent”, or even “become One with it”, I would not have been so strangely and marvellously disturbed. What he had said, however, was that it was necessary to embody the transcendent.” Andrew experienced a direct transmission of Truth that day, through His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Each of us, as we journey on this path are blessed with whispers of intuition, profound insights, even ecstatic revelations, about who we really are, and why we’re here. These insights come, sometimes in the sacred container of our spiritual practice, other times in the crucible of devastating loss, and sometimes they come in those ‘ordinary moments’ with a loved one, watching the sunset, playing with a pet, listening to music, creating art, serving those in need, or simply going about our day. Sometimes these insights awaken us with a whisper that gently infuses our body, heart and mind, and other times as a blinding epiphany that shatters our illusions and drowns us in a magnificent revelation of knowing that changes us forever. In whatever way they come to us, there’s just one problem. Unless we know how to EMBODY these insights and revelations of

Monday, July 27th to Sunday 2nd August 2015 Spirit, we keep on floundering in the human pain of wanting, the frustration of wishing, and the agony of not experiencing ourselves, our relationships, and our life in the way we most deeply desire. That’s why Andrew speaks so passionately about how essential the sacred inner marriage of spirit and body is to living our full potential, and I’m right there with him on that. This is what Andrew will be exploring with you when he comes to Adelaide for two exclusive events on 13th & 14th June – ‘Love and Freedom: The Ecstatic Marriage of the Sacred Feminine & Masculine Within’, and ‘The Enlightened Body: Mysticism, Yoga & the Embodiment of Love’.

Buddha House is most grateful to be hosting Venerable Robina Courtin for a week of teachings, talks and discussions on Mahayana Buddhism. Robina Courtin, raised Catholic, was interested in becoming a Carmelite nun. Living in London during the 1960s and 70s, Robina worked on behalf of prisoners’ rights. After moving back to Melbourne, in 1976, she took a Buddhist course taught by Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa in Queensland, and was ordained in 1978 at the Dharamsala Tushita Meditation Centre. Robina’s humane, down to earth style of teaching Buddhism has endeared her to thousands of students world-wide via her classes, courses, videos and articles. Working tirelessly, Robina recently said whilst waiting for flights out of Kathmandu following the earthquake, “If there is no other way out of Kathmandu except the mountain roads, then the mountain roads are for me. But otherwise, what? I’d have missed an entire week of teachings in the UK, and I couldn’t do that.” Don’t miss Venerable Robina’s visit. It will be very special and our program has all the details.

We can become confused again by getting caught up in our thoughts and emotions once more and so we need to keep going with our practice until our experience transforms into a deep realization that can never be lost. What is the difference between experience and realization? The experience is when you experience being awareness. Realization is when you experience nothing else.

in the FLOW

WITH DR GRAHAM WILLIAMS

Director of The Lifeflow Meditation Centre and an adjunct lecturer in the School of Medicine at Flinders University.

REASON, LOVE AND WILL Reason, love and will are ingrained in the fabric of Western culture and they have each taken turns at dominating throughout our history. As well, we all tend to identify with one of these human qualities and then tend to ignore the others, or believe they are not important.

A brief history

The tale of legendary figure King Arthur of the late 5th century explicates the attempt to turn “might is right” into “right is might”. After the fall of the Roman Empire “might is right” ruled, the will was supreme, and the Middle Ages are the history of the Christian Church attempting to build a civil society. Christianity viewed itself as a civilising force, preaching love and goodwill. It established the ideal, if not so much the reality, of building relationships on a basis of love. It has been called the Age of Faith. From the 14th–17th centuries, with the rediscovery of Ancient Greek literature, the Renaissance period saw the resurgence of thinking and observation. Logic became a recognised tool for understanding the world rather than faith. This culminated in the Enlightenment or the Age of Reason, the era from the 17th–19th centuries where reason, analysis and individualism were emphasised over traditional authority. In the early 19th century the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer reasserted the fundamental drive of will in his concept of the will to live. He believed that will was the driving force in human lives. By the 20th century, Western culture had turned full circle. As human beings, we have the qualities of reason, love and will for a purpose; they complement each other, and I believe that to truly fulfil our humanity we need to learn how they can work harmoniously together.

Head, heart and gut

A direct way of seeing this in yourself is to notice what is most important for you; what you rely on when you make decisions, and the kind of work you do. The thinkers among us work, for example, in management, science and academia and, for them, reason and logic are their most important means to orient themselves in their lives and relationships. They are often called the pointy heads of society because they identify so much with their heads. However, ‘feelers’ work completely differently. For them connection, community and communication are the most important things. They look to relationships to give life its meaning and work, for example, in the health professions and the arts. Their lives are guided by their feelings and they are the heart people among us who believe love is the most important thing in life. Those who prefer to act directly believe that only by doing something and honing your physical skills can you achieve anything. For them will is paramount and asser ting their will is their solution to all questions and problems. These are the gut people among us and can have a highly developed intuition. They are totally practical and are often found in physical professions like sports and trades. Each of us has one (head, heart or gut) that dominates and then, if we have done some training, another that supports it. The third one is unknown, unacknowledged, and foreign to us.

How they work together

Our head is where most of our senses are located so it’s mainly from there that we search our environment, collecting information. To summarise, it’s where we see. To see we need to differentiate the sensations we receive, and thinking is the tool with which we discern the information that comes our way.

Reason is the process through which we organise our thinking so it works smoothly and skillfully. It involves not judging immediately, giving the benefit of the doubt and then following through with a good decision-making process where you take into account your motivation, the information you have and the alternatives. Our heart complements our head by working in the totally opposite way. It’s where we experience our feelings and emotions and it’s where we feel part of our family, community and environment. Without this, life would be empty, meaningless and isolated. It is where we open to the experience of love. Whereas thinking separates and differentiates us from everyone and everything else, love connects us. Our gut is the seat of our actions – you have to have guts to do anything! It is the manifestation of our instincts to survive, reproduce and acquire power, and these are what drive us to action. However, without reason and love we would simply be driven by our instincts. Thinking and feeling are what enable us to make decisions and choose which actions to take and which not to take. With your head, hear t and gut working harmoniously together you can step out of the way and allow life to pervade you rather than believing you have to keep it under control. The three working together are what make us truly human and this is the essence of both wisdom and love. Dr. Graham Williams has over thirty years’ experience teaching both meditation and mindfulness, is the Director of The Lifeflow Meditation Centre and an adjunct lecturer in the School of Medicine at Flinders University. He has written two books, Insight and Love which is in its third edition and Life in Balance. They are both available online.

WAKING UP FROM THE STORY OF OUR LIFE

BY ENZA VITA, publisher of InnerSelf newspaper and author of “Always Already Free” I keep reading conflicting advice from spiritual teachers. Some tell us that practice is necessary while others says that it is not. It is all so confusing...

Some paths and teachers say there is nothing that we, the apparent person we believe to be, can do towards the realization of our true nature but as long as there is identification with this apparent person, saying that there is nothing to do is simply deluding ourselves, adding a veneer of lofty thoughts over some uncomfortable truths that we still haven’t had the courage to face head on. We are now in an even worse situation than we were before we started seeking. With the denial and suppression of our suffering, we now don’t even have the possibility to investigate it and understand its nature. We are now truly stuck in a world where apathy and fear are mistaken for peace and freedom. Sooner or later however, our suffering will resurface in full measure and force us to confront what we think we have left behind. Emptiness is not an escape from form. Rather form is the “apparent” veiling of emptiness. This realization leads to the understanding that “there is nothing to do and no-one to do it” but when this is directly realized, not just intellectually understood, it becomes our own unshakable knowledge, where every experience is only the knowing of Consciousness knowing itself. Then we no longer see a division between duality and transcendence. The natural consequence of awakened beingness is a clear and simple expression of awareness that never fixates in any realm of experience. If we find ourselves in a state where something is excluded, that state, however amazing it is, is still a dualistic state. I have just finished reading a book by a famous teacher and he says that there is nothing we can do to awaken.

If we truly knew that there is nothing we can do to become enlightened, what would we do? Some teachers tell us to “be in the NOW’ or to “surrender” but what does this truly mean? “Just leap into the unknown”

some others say. More good advice because that IS the process, but where exactly do we leap from? In our day-to-day life, we are almost always habitually involved with thoughts and projections, constantly trying to manipulate whatever comes up in our life experiences by either moving toward the ones we like or moving away from the ones we don’t. The thoughts themselves are not the problem. The problem is that we are constantly reacting to them and so every thought that arises in the mind continually distracts us, “seemingly” obscuring our true nature - natural awareness. By natural awareness here I refer to our true naked nature, stripped bare of these movements of the mind. Since the mind depends on this constant movement for its continued existence, one of the practices I teach, Instant Presence , is to be internally still and undistracted. This actually means to leave everything that arises in our experience (thoughts, sights, sounds and sensations) as it is, without manipulations or strategies. We simply relax in the present moment without trying to improve it, correct it or replace it. This is not a passive surrender but a letting go to being totally present and totally relaxed at the same time, without any artificiality or manipulation. Instead of our usual habit of grasping and making the moment solid, we open, dissolve and “let everything be”. The words “relaxing into it while maintaining aler tness” seem to point to a mind-made effor t, but what I’m talking about is to leave the mind as it is, without giving it anything to do. We don’t strive to reach some “amazing goal” or some “advanced state.” Nor do we use the practice to “go deep into ourselves” or to withdraw from the world. Instead, we just trust, connect, and realize what is already here. By familiarizing ourselves with this understanding again and again, it eventually transforms into direct experience but we don’t stop here because even experience is not very stable in the worlds of time and

Some teachings encourage us to identify as awareness and detach ourselves from the messiness of ordinary life. I prefer to see our everyday life as the all-inclusive Awareness and I encourage the deep descent into the ordinariness of our life so that we can realize that enlightenment doesn’t exist just up there in the Sacred World but right here in every experience of our sometimes messy life. Enlightenment is the realization that the True Self, the Ultimate Source is always present in and as EVERY experience and it is the actual dissolving of the imaginary separation between transcendental and ordinary, between us and IT. As the metaphor of the Ocean and the wave, feelings, thoughts, objects, subjects, including this body-mind we believe to be, is nothing other than the movement, the wave of the one, whole, undivided Ocean. With the Ocean, we can easily see that every wave IS the Ocean, and that no wave could possibly be better or closer to the Ocean than any other wave. We can also see that the Ocean is always changing: calm placid waves can quickly change into violent stormy ones but everything is the Ocean. There are different waves that we call Enza or John or computer or desk but there’s no permanent, solid independent separate wave: it’s all one Ocean, one seamless whole. For the wave, the Ocean is inescapable. There’s no need to find it, remember it, become it. Every wave is the Ocean. Everything right here now is the Ocean. These words are the Ocean. You are the Ocean. There is only the Ocean.

Enza is the author of the book Always Already Free. Based on Enza’s own experience, Always Already Free, guides the reader from the seeking process through the integration of enlightenment into everyday life and reveals that spiritual enlightenment is not a faraway dream, but the ever-present reality always available here and now.

“This brilliant contribution to our modern understanding of authentic identity and Presence brings us to a new awareness of ourselves and our innate wholeness and completeness. Enza’s personal awakening story, in the first few pages, is worth the price of admission. Enlightened wisdom is like an endangered natural resource today, which we overlook at our peril; let’s join in exploring and developing our own innate transformational resources for a change.” — LAMA SURYA DAS, author of Awakening the Buddha Within “This is a great contribution to our appreciation of the genuine voice of Pure Presence. It brings us to a deeper awareness of what it means to study the self and our intrinsic true nature as that which is already perfect, whole and complete. It is certainly worthy of your time and attention. — ZEN MASTER D. GENPO MERZEL, author of Big Mind, Big Heart Based on Enza’s own experience, Always Already Free is a guide to discovering the deepest truth about who we are. In this book, the author: • Presents her own personal direct encounter with the awakened state. • Thoroughly addresses the ongoing debate between the necessity of spiritual practice and the ever-present possibility of sudden awakening, while at the same time offering detailed instructions for the practice “Instant Presence - Allowing Natural Meditation To Happen.” • Lays out what it means to consciously live and embody the truth of one’s being, the phenomenon of “finding and losing” oneself, and the power and seduction of our thoughts and emotions that keep us held in narrow self-definitions and create endless suffering. • Guides the reader from the seeking process through the integration of spiritual enlightenment into everyday life and reveals that enlightenment is not a faraway dream, intellectual knowledge or even an experience but the direct realization of our true nature always available here and now. “While it’s true that we are always the Self”– says Enza Vita “if this hasn’t been truly and directly realized, this knowledge won’t do us any good. Just knowing that there is no gate to pass through doesn’t mean that we are at the end of the search, not if we are still standing outside that gateless gate. Realization is not about you, the wave, realizing it is ocean. The ocean realizes itself in you and reveals itself to have never been just a wave.”

Enza Vita has spent over 40 years searching and studying under many of the great spiritual teachers of our age and she was exposed to the wonderful writings of many others around the world. “The truth I talk about is not limited to any tradition” – says Enza Vita, “but is found in, and open to, all true traditions”.

Movement Based Somatic Therapy - An Education in Body Awareness

How we move can often reflect our Psychological state and emotional wellbeing. Somatic Therapy works with the relationship between the body and the mind and is a therapeutic and holistic approach to the body. Somatic Movement Therapy equips therapists with the skills to apply verbal, tactile and/or movement based approaches as needed by the client as 80% of psychotherapy and counselling is actually non-verbal. As therapists, we see clients who have few words; clients whose feelings and memories are trapped in bodily symptoms, frozen postures,

stereotypical gestures, or painful muscle tension. We meet clients who say they are fine, or ok, or ‘a bit anxious’, but have no connection to the sensations and meanings behind the words. As a result, more and more health professionals such as counsellors, psychologists, social workers, doctors, Pilates practitioners, complementary medical therapists and nurses are recognising the need for such an integrated holistic approach to healing. Diversify your skills, giving you and your clients more opportunities to heal and overcome barriers to their health.

Making Life Happy

Counselling might be beneficial for you if… Something has been troubling you over a period of time and you’re having difficulty finding a solution on your own; things are getting on top of you, and affecting your wellbeing, for example, causing depression, anxiety or stress; Issues from the past are having an impact on your day to day life; Things that are troubling you are having a negative impact on your relationships or work. Counselling can help you reflect and make sense of difficult life

WOULD YOU LIKE SOME HELP?

As Winter rolls on in, we are less inclined to go out into the world, more inclined to stay home. As the Natural world impacts our physical drive, so too does it affect our mental/emotional and spiritual well-being. We often find ourselves becoming more internal in the colder months, more likely to become depressed and overweight. As a mental health therapist it makes a lot of sense to me. The culmination of precious little sun, a whole lot of damp, Southerly winds that can chill to the bone marry up with us slowing down. When we slow down, the shadow rises. Winter is the perfect time to go within, nurture ourselves and take stock. Nurturing our physical is easy enough: eat warming, whole, seasonal foods; do a little research on supplements such as D3, K2 and Mucuna to see if they are wor th a go; have long warming baths with magnesium salts; and dress warmly in natural fibres. Throw in a few extras such as eating raw fermented veg daily to improve gut health (which is where 80% of your immune systems is), some mild to moderate exercise most days and a solid 8-10hr sleep per night and your body will appreciate your efforts. Attending to our mental, emotional and spiritual needs, mmmm, well this is a very different scenario. It’s so much harder because “we lie best when we lie to ourselves”. That is - we delude ourselves easily, thoroughly and most often. We are champions at this. Insert laugh. And, we also take ourselves and our situation

way too seriously. Again, insert laughter. When we slow down and ‘do’ less, we can begin to process the year’s doings. Just sitting inside on a rainy Sunday (as I’m writing this) watching the weather blow – it’s the time to feel. Being in sync with the seasons, helps keep us balanced. Winter is the time for observation and quiet contemplation. As the bitter cold sweeps our part of the planet, we can harness this energy to get in touch with our own internal coldness. Winter is the perfect time to feel the frozen par ts of our hear t; the time to contact the darkness within; the time to ‘pull in’ the fragments of our lives to ultimately heal them. When we ‘stay in’ and take time out to observe and contemplate, perhaps examine our lives, we see that doing the same old, gets us the same old. If we want something to change to be different, then it stands to reason that we must change and ‘be’ different. When I was going through university I heard somewhere this fascinating line – we spend 18 years in childhood, then the rest of our lives coming to terms with those first 18 years. Insert small laugh. Self-help books, cds, dvds, podcasts, all great for getting the process started however, not so great for keeping the process going. You see, “we lie best when we lie to ourselves”. If we don’t want to get caught up in our own delusion, a therapist is required to keep us on track. Mental, emotional and spiritual growth is difficult. Loosening the ego’s (learnt cognition, behaviour and traits)

bond that ties it to us and us to it, is not done without struggle, without pain. And yet, if broken into small bite size pieces, with a hear ty measure of commitment and acceptance and an experienced therapist who can provide a bespoke service, personal growth can be very achievable. When looking for a therapist you need someone who is well experienced, up-to-date and personable. In fact the most important factor to look for in a therapist is whether or not you find the therapist personable. You want someone who tailors the sessions to meet you. For far too long now therapists of all professions have relied on the ‘one size fits all’ mentality and we now know this to be totally incorrect. Made to measure is the way to go. No prêt-a-porter here; I offer a custom made service, a service that fits you and your style. With nearly two decades of experience and a consistent commitment to professional development I am up-to-date and flexible in my approach. I believe in the adage “laughter is the best medicine” and utilise humour to balance out the heaviness and seriousness we humans get trapped in. If you have a particular issue you wish to work through and process or you’re interested in personal growth call me for an appointment. Do you need some assistance to move beyond the (maladaptive) rules and coping mechanisms learnt in childhood?

TheENNEAGRAM

WITH SAHAJA

The Anger Points

In this edition, we continue our discussion of the enneagram by exploring the group of three character fixations that manifest their primary viewpoint and experience in the physical body. I’d like to reiterate, that when you read literature about the enneagram and the types, it is essential to recognise that you are not a fixation. You are the ‘isness’ of total being, a facet of which manifests as a body with a mix of characteristic ‘egoic wiring’ we call character fixations. These contribute to obscuration of objective characteristic experiences of ‘isness’. When life is experienced through a fixation primarily embedded in the physical body, the viewpoint is dominated by the body mind whose language is that of non-rational, physical impulses attuned to moving toward pleasure and away from pain. There are thoughts and emotions, but the response of these fixations to external triggers will arise as a pre-verbal impulse in the body. These people are also known as obsessive compulsives with issues related to control, compliance and obedience. The unobscured, objective experiences of the anger points are fundamental characteristics of absolute totality, and all fixations experience the perceived loss of these. The disconnection from the experiences of knowing that you are indivisible, timeless, infinite, totality (8), hence inherently perfect (1), with a quality that is inherently lovable, good and positive (9), contribute to the primary delusions of the anger points. The nine is the core anger point but these people often appear the most accommodating, peaceful, and gentle, their anger is so deeply suppressed. The loss of connection to Being, and experience of conditional loving, results in feeling intrinsically unlovable, inferior, unworthy, and they respond by becoming deeply unconscious of their true nature. We all have to meet this core ‘falling asleep’ to experience the preciousness, delight, and wonder of living. For nines, the sleepiness is experienced in the body as a heavy, anchoring energy that deeply buries their inner experiences, manifesting as laziness to what is most essential, a refusal to see, and resistance to change. The egoic attempt to imitate the essence of loving Being, manifests in avoiding conflict, supressing anger, and yielding to other peoples desires which enrages them. “No” is a rarely used word. To fill the hole of unlovability, and avoid their suppressed anger, they will narcotise themselves with food, alcohol, sex, things that make them happy, and pleasurable activities. Anger leaks out passive aggressively with feelings of being controlled and stubbornness. As a generalisation, anger points move against people, but the flavour varies with the exteriorised eight enraged at the painful loss of seemingly being separated from totality, and believing oneself to be a body.

With that duality comes the reaction that someone else is to blame, and there must be vengeance. They have no problem with expressing anger externally feeling the need to defend themselves against a hostile world, and standing up for justice on behalf of the underdog. Vulnerable tender feelings are rejected so as not to appear weak or dependent. Angry, dominating control of others imitates the true essence of Shakti, which is an experience of a vital energy of strength free of any dependence on ‘other’. For the interiorised one, there is resentment and criticality in the pursuit of perfection. Anger and rejection of their own experience arises from a sense of there being something inherently wrong with them that is also projected onto others. It is the home of comparative judgement associated with subjective measures of perfection that can never be met, despite all their striving to be better. There is constant dialogue of the superego berating themselves with a flavour of preaching righteousness, and virtuous morality. This veils the essence of purity inherent in being a facet of ‘isness’, which is everything, and therefore perfect and right in this now of absolute reality. A sample of other key traits of a nine form are; habitual, conservative, pursuit of distractions, melt into partners, ‘couch potato’, passion for comfor t, peacekeepers, hoarders, unkempt homes, live through others (family or in clubs), lack of own identity, chameleons, lack of personal hygiene, sense of lethal rage. A sample of other key traits of an eight form are; boastful, bigoted, tough, blunt, insulting, crass, always right, rebels, unkempt, consume whatever brings pleasure in life to excess, intense, big energy/presence, work hard/play hard, ‘laying trips’, denial, self-reliant, hedonist/puritan, possessive, indulge in power, loyal to friends. A sample of other key traits of a one form are; denial of anger, physically stiff from excessive control of themselves, obsessive orderliness and cleanliness of self/house/garden, rigid/sensitive, jealousy, controlling, demanding, disciplinarians, preachers, aristocratic, compulsive vir tue, puritanical, masochistic, sarcastic, obedience issues, worry, social reformers. Next edition we will explore the group of emotional body fixations, the image points. Sahaja is devoted to living as the clearest expression of True Nature possible, and being used in support however that looks. Currently this is available as one-on-one assistance with self inquiry.

yourRELATIONSHIPS WITH DIANE McCANN

It’s all Sacred

BY LEO DRIOLI

It’s all sacred. When it’s realised that without is within, it’s realised that it’s all made out of the very same fabric of creation or God’s Presence as consciousness. When it’s seen that everything that arises within your consciousness is being created out of the very same living divine Presence … it’s all seen as being equal. No object is better or worse, higher or lower, more or less … it’s all sacred because it’s all the presence of the Divine, arising within consciousness. There is no outside and in truth no inside too … it’s all simply emptiness filled with divine love … the natural, clear, open spacious awareness of the heart. If all and everything is naturally arising in consciousness, as consciousness then how can one arising be better or more real or more pure than another? If it’s all created out of the very same substance … this love of God? This realisation is transparent … it cannot be seen, yet sits as Truth within each miraculous moment … every arising, every new encounter … simply God meeting God … Life meeting life … Love meeting love. In this view, as this view, there’s no striving to locate it, there’s no seeking the elusive other state of perfection, enlightenment if you will … because everything is This … Everything … absolutely everything. So, nothing exists outside of consciousness, nothing ever has, nothing ever will. Because it’s all simply Self manifesting as other for the sake of seeing self and other as One. When it’s seen, when it’s clearly seen and realised … Each moment is revealed as another encounter with the Divine … fresh, new, clear, true and real. No judgment … no higher or lower seeing, simply seeing it as part of one’s own true nature, one’s own fabric of being … this is love. And, now the great adventure truly begins. As the love of the heart has now revealed its own presence as life itself, within one’s own consciousness, there’s only this continued seeing of the Divine presenting Itself as new form … within each moment. How can it not all be sacred? Everything … absolutely everything is sacred because it’s all the One revealing Itself through the many. Not “out there” … not “in here” … but simply the Eternal Vastness that is the only field of consciousness, right before our very eyes. Everything …. Absolutely everything is sacred.

Your thoughts are not you But are made out of you. Your thoughts are your creations

And you can dance with them. But be careful not to lose yourself in them. Your thoughts, all of them Good, bad or in between. All of them are not you But they are made out of you. You can look at the miracle of their existence Dancing mysteriously in the sun. Or you can become them for a while. But, know that your thoughts are not you. They are made out of you. What a dance this can be this sacred dance of Clear Seeing. You, reflected in these ephemeral bubbles of Light. Learn to dance with them. Do not desire them, do not fear them. They are simply bubbles of “You-nesss”. See these thoughts for what they truly are … Miraculous outpourings of spontaneous reflections of God’s Light. They dwell here for a while … They were birthed in you, they took their breath from you and they will die their own natural death in you. Know this: Your thoughts are not you. They are made out of you. Your thoughts are not you. Leo Drioli is the author of "Every Moment's a Miracle" and editor of InnerSelf Newspaper.

THE GODDESS, THE WOMAN, THE HEALER! As I look at blogs and Facebook I am in awe of the number of groups that are popping up about… and for… women; incredibly powerful writings of women and TED talks by women all saying the same thing. That this is our time! A time to stand up, stand strong, stand together and change the world! Can we do it? Absolutely. From a National research paper I gleaned the following: Women are the source for growth that power our economy as well as the biggest consumers in the world. They make around 85% of consumers decisions and inject more than $20 trillion dollars annually into the global economy. Also Australian women are star ting small businesses at twice the rate of men. Lots of things are changing out there in the world… Women are getting stronger and more willing to speak up for themselves and each other; we are also aware of the need to help those less fortunate than ourselves and thus groups are popping up like daffodils in spring where women are reaching out to help others. Wonderful news! However while it’s changing slowly in our favour, I look at what’s happening with women themselves and their self image. A huge depar tment store put two signs on two entrances, one that said ‘Beautiful’ and one that said ‘Average’… we don’t have to be geniuses to figur e out which door most women walked through!!!! Yep, Average.. Dove did a campaign and got women to describe themselves to an artist who was hidden behind a screen, he drew them according to their description. Then the artist drew a second picture according to the description of the person’s best friend. Guess which picture depicted the women more accurately. Yep, right again, the friend’s picture! If we don’t love ourselves and

shine that light out into the world for others to light their candle from when the wick burns down, then how can we expect our daughters and nieces and friends to allow their light to shine. When we have such dramatic increases in youth suicide (young men included) and in self harming – 6-7% of Australian youth aged 15-24 years engage in self harm in any 12-month period. It is estimated that the number of young people who have engaged in self-harm is 40-100 times greater than those who have actually ended their lives. It is a sad state of our time and WE have to be better role models. When we grow up with our parents complaining about their bodies or their looks or whatever, it rubs off… What is it about us that does not allow us to see our beauty? What is it about us that makes us feel less than worthy? Why do we not honour our own thoughts and feelings, perhaps staying in relationships that don’t serve us, or in jobs that don’t fulfil us; thinking we need to be perfect and driving ourselves crazy because we’re not; becoming addicts of the glass of wine with dinner to numb us out, the cigarettes even though we know they are bad for us, the drugs to dull the pain, the sex, the shopping, the other addictions that stop us from feeling our true nature? Loving others is easy, loving children, loving pets but self love… that is something that requires a

lifetime of work and each decade gets easier. That is why personal development is the most powerful thing you can do for yourself. It changes how we see ourselves and when we see the truth gazing back in the mirror even if we are not Elle McPherson etc, we need to star t loving that beautiful face looking back at us. The one whose heart has probably been broken, shattered, fractured or closed down by someone or some thing; the one who had words spoken to her that cut deeper than a knife could, perhaps unintentionally, perhaps in spite but always coming from another damaged human who didn’t understand the fragility of the person they were speaking to… We’ve all been battered emotionally or physically, or mentally or sexually, some only for a moment in time, some for years… but that is NOT who we are…We are strong amazing mag-

nificent women who are turning the world around slowly. Let us make a commitment to each other to reach out, to ask for assistance when we are not coping, to speak the truth about and to ourselves and to love more, every day. Then and only then, can we co-create wonderful relationships with our beautiful men (often equally damaged) and then bring into this world children who know absolutely that they are beautiful and loved and deserving of everything wonderful. Then we shall move toward peace. Diane McCann facilitates The Goddess Within seminar for women and together with her husband Robert, facilitates Man’s Inner Journey for men and Tantra for couples.

WITH HEATHER FRAHN

Multi-award winning and acclaimed singer-songwriter, sound designer, and qualified sound therapy practitioner.

We Are One Voice

“Hallelujah!” hails the gospel spiritual choir… “Ohm Shanti!” chant the yogis… “You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one!” sing the peace loving John Lennon fans. It’s true, no matter what culture you’re from, throughout history, the role of the human voice to connect, inspire and lift up the human spirit, has been second to none. Singing and chanting has spanned across cultures, centuries, and languages. When individuals come together with their unique voices to “sing as one voice”, a special magic happens. This magic can be felt at rock concerts, churches, ashrams, temples, community halls, around campfires, and harmonically acoustic spaces in nature, such as caves. We’ve all felt that union in voice and harmony as we’ve joined in with a sing-along, or chanted an ancient Sanskrit mantra. Singing from a young age, I’ve always known intuitively that singing felt good, but it wasn’t until I met one of my sound healing mentors in 2009, Shirley Roden, that I started to piece together why. Shirley showed me that the most powerful instrument we have available to us is, our voice. Why? Because it’s a par t of us, literally! It’s not an external musical instrument. It’s in our bodies, and when it’s sounded it creates a vibration that can be felt directly in the body, and also sent outward into our subtle energy. When adding to this vocalisation our positive intention, we can create a healing formula. Harmonic singer Jonathan Goldman said it… “sound + intention = healing”. A study penned by musician Fabien Maman demonstrated that after only seven minutes of someone singing/toning their “fundamental note” in close proximity to their own cancer cells under a microscope, that they could destroy these cancer cells. (Note: Your fundamental note is unique to you, it’s your natural tone, and feels expansive and reso-

nant in your body-being when it’s sounded). When this same person vocalised their fundamental note to their healthy cells, it showed an increase in the vibrancy of the cell’s aura and strengthening of the cell wall. It has also been shown that injured cats purr deeply for hours in a quiet place undisturbed, and it’s these deep healing frequencies from their own purr that heal them. Another study by the late Dr. Masaru Emoto, revealed that beautiful symmetrical “water crystals” form in water that’s been exposed to chanting, prayers, and singing. Humans are 70-80% water, so this is an interesting explanation as to why singing harmonises and feels so good. There is no doubt that coming together to sing as one voice is healing physically, emotionally and spiritually. It’s been shown through many studies with community choirs that singing benefits us by increasing brain function and neural pathway connections, blood circulation, and better ability to fight disease by giving our immune system a boost. Singing can improve posture, breath control and lung capacity, and our brains release pain relieving endorphins. The social and emotional benefits enhance self esteem and confidence, a positive mood, creativity and bonding, all within the forum for sharing, fun, suppor t, understanding, and laughter. So whether you’re a closet bedroom singer, or a professional vocalist, I encourage singing from your hear t, allowing your fundamental note flow, and uniting your voice with positive uplifting lyrics that have meaning in your life.

CONSCIOUS MUSIC

From New Age to One Tribe

BY SHAYNE LOCKE

The term “new age” has a lot to answer for. The least of which is cultivating a concept within our minds of elevator music in shopping centres or nature sounds mixed with wind chimes. Is it any wonder the countless number of musicians under the title of new age have always struggled to have a voice in mainstream media. Nearly two years ago when we star ted Soul Traveller Radio, we began digging into a genre that was at that point unnamed. The best label we could come up with was positive music, but was it all positive, especially when the songs had a hard hitting message about war or the environment? A discussion with one of our first contacts within the unnamed genre, Murray Kyle, uncovered a term that was to form the backbone of the station and open us up to a whole world of varied forms of music, not just the new age style. The term was “conscious music” and it is time for conscious music to step out from the “new age closet” to stand on its own. It is time for the rise of conscious music. Just over twelve months ago, we published an article on “The Rise (and Rise) of Conscious Music. It explained that in order to be defined as conscious music it had to adhere to the core fundamentals or what we called the “Pillars” - songs about love; songs about the Divine; songs about social impact; and songs that come from a place of pure energy. These four pillars form the cornerstones of a foundation that is becoming stronger and much larger as the level of consciousness in the world is being raised. Whether it is personal change or changes in our spiritual/physical environment, the fact remains that with change comes a new awareness, an understanding that we can no longer live by hard and fast dogmatic rules. This is the essence of change itself...pushing boundaries and challenging our rules. Likewise conscious music is going through a growth, evolving into something much more transparent and in touch with the four pillars. And it isn’t going to stop. I had a rather heated discussion with one of the “new age music”

MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, SOUND HEALER, TEACHER On her latest CD, A World of Peace, Christine uses her exquisite voice and a range of instruments to communicate the higher vibrational virtues of our New Earth.

promoters who was adamant that conscious music was just a fad and new age music would always survive. At about that point I began to ask her what she would consider new age. Granted there were artists who could definitely be considered new age like Lia Scallon, Terry Oldfield, Paul Avgerinos or the Grammy award winning album Samsara by Ricky Kej and Wouter Kellerman however I then quickly rattled of a whole range of music (that I knew wouldn’t be defined as new age) like: • Kirtan/mantra artists (Simrit, Deva Premal & Miten, Jai-Jagdeesh, Sacred Earth, Edo & Jo, Krishna Das, Jai Uttal & Dave Stringer); • Folk Rock (Trevor Hall, Nahko, Dustin Thomas, Michael Franti or our very own Leo Drioli); • Reggae (Bob Marley, Ziggy Marley, Soja, Blue King Brown) • Folktronica/Electronic Digital Music (David Starfire, The Polish Ambassador, Ayla Nereo, Deya Dova, Solon) • World Music (Peia, Coloured Stone, Rocky Dawuni, Sika, Playing for Change) The change has occurred. New age music is merely one facet of the diamond that is now known as Conscious Music. What was restricted in the minds of the public to Enya, celtic music and whale songs, has grown into something much bigger and a whole lot more exciting. One music encompassing so much more. One tribe all dancing to the beat of a new drum. Equally exciting are the festivals that are developing around a culture that is suddenly demanding change. From Bhaktifest to Bali Spirit Festival, Lightening in a Bottle to Uplift Festival, the spotlight is focusing on Conscious Music as the new standard - even if we don’t know what it is called yet. A perfect example was this year’s Bluesfest that featured no less that 12 conscious music artists and Woodford Folk Festival who dedicated a whole tent to conscious music. But does it or should it stop there. It is the deepest desire of Soul Traveller Radio to not be one of the only stations that plays conscious music. Just this week we had a discussion with several conscious music ar tists who expressed the desire to go mainstream – not just be heard in new age stores, yoga studios and mind body spirit festivals, but rather be readily available everywhere, heard on every radio station. Already we are seeing the rise with community stations airing shows like Accentuate the Positive, college radio stations playing kirtan music, it is just a matter of time before we see conscious artists with songs on the charts, selling out concert halls around the world. From the gentle tones and healing music of ar tists like Wah! to the rock of Travis Caudle...This is the music we want, we just haven’t known what it was....until now.

Chris James

Vo i c e t e a c h e r, singer and musician Chris James, is known for his ability to bring the experience of the Healing Power of Sound to many. Acclaimed for his work internationally Chris’ love of expression and the human voice brings a unique quality – “Everyone is born with a beautiful voice; singing and speaking.” Chris’ music covers many genres but the purpose never wavers. “The process of understanding the energy of music has been an amazing defining and refining process over the last 12 years, and the bottom line is what really ser ves humanity.” Instead of bringing emotional trauma to the planet, we can bring love and truth to the planet . . . in our music! Everything that is in our voice is a reflection of what we hold in our body – tension and stress, or harmony and ease. Our voice reflects where we are at, when fear and anxiousness leave... harmony naturally takes its place. As we all know sound is a vibration, it’s there when we speak and when we sing. Whether the spoken voice or music, sound is either healing, or it’s not. “Interestingly one of the most healing experiences I have had with sound is simply listening to someone speaking directly from their heart, feeling every cell in my body vibrating. This is very simple but very beautiful . . .and life changing.” And this really is what conscious music is about. Chris runs retreats and workshops internationally on conscious music and the Healing Power of Sound. Enquiries: admin@chrisjames.net www.chrisjames.net

For me, chanting is like a tonic that soothes my soul from the demands of modern living. It stops my mind and beckons me to surrender, deep into the Nectar of the hear t. So simple, so direct, such immediate connection. Nothing and everything is available in the pure potential of the moment. Essentially, I believe we are all here to be love, to give love and express love in everything we do, this is our most impor tant function as a human being. Chanting mantras together gives such a direct experience of that energy, opening the hear t to the ecstatic bliss of the ocean of love and simultaneous rendering the fertile mind silent. And the bonus is, that in that clear, spacious consciousness we can remember our essential nature, who we truly are. My journey as a Jazz/Latin singer, Acupuncturist and Yoga teacher has inspired a passion for exploring and understanding the energy pathways that create change and expansion of consciousness. By bridging the two worlds of soulful jazz and devotional Sanskrit mantras it has created a musical fusion that is both ecstatically blissful and calmingly transformative.

Their blissful music appeals so deeply because despite its contemporary feel, it still succeeds in keeping alive the meditative nuances of its traditional roots. One hears Indian temple chants with exquisite soaring melodies that send the listener effortlessly spinning into states of bliss. But it’s not just their music, their philosophies of living have also touched countless number of lives through their CDs, DVDs and books. Today one hears their music everywhere - from the Himalayas in the north, to the beaches of Kerala and every corner of the Universe. IndiaJiva, after all, means the “soul of India” and the Indians having a strong and intuitive feeling for their own music recognised that IndiaJiva, in playing their music, had caught its very soul, whilst at the same time have appreciated their interpretations offered in a new and contemporary way. But it is just not in India that they enjoy a devoted and passionate fan-base it is also in the USA, Europe, Canada and South America.

SONGS TO AWAKEN THE HEART AND SOUL We all know that sound and music can have a profound effect on our sense of our wellbeing. Sound can evoke memories, emotions, and physical sensations within the body - it can relax, uplift, sadden or aggravate us. In essence this is because sound is vibration and we are all unique vibratory beings. Sound is ‘felt’ throughout our entire body and it affects every organ, bone, tissue and cell - it literally ‘resonates’ within us and this is why it is so powerful as a healing modality, as it can ‘shift’ and ‘raise’ our vibration. Sound and music alone offer us so much. A whole new level of healing potential is made available to us through sound healing/ therapy, conscious music and sacred music. ‘Sound healing/therapy is the intentional use of sound and vibration to aid people in their healing process. World renowned sound healer Jonathan Goldman shares a simple formula: Frequency + Intent = Healing. Over-or-underactivity in the chakras and imbalances in the energy field respond par ticularly well to sound therapy. When parts of our bodies are out of balance and blocked energetically, they may potentially be healed through the projection of proper and correct frequencies back into the body. Sound baths and sound treatments can also be specifically focused on assisting recipient/s to relax deeply, enabling them to release stress and let go mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Music, put simply, is organised sound. ‘Conscious music’ is written, played performed, recorded and delivered with the intention of raising the vibration of the listener. It is music that is positive and can help us on our journey. When we are aware of this potential from sound and music and actively listen with our own intention to receive its healing frequencies, we amplify the power of its potential. ‘Sacred music’ evokes an awareness of and celebrates our connection to the Divine, through mantra and songs of praise, gratitude and devotion. When we join our voice with others at sacred music gatherings we cocreate a unified field of sound and elevated consciousness. What a wonderful blessing and joyful way to raise our vibration… sound, music mantra and song! Sonic Heart coordinates, hosts and promotes local events and provides information to connect people with the transformational qualities of sound healing/ therapy, meditation, mantra and heart-centred music. Our mission is to expand the Heart Space, with high vibrational sound, word, music, song and mantra, and to also play a part in raising global consciousness.

Let Your Spirit Sing CD by Leo Drioli

“Clear, pure, simple, inspired and deeply authentic…Feel the gift of Presence in these 5 Heart Songs.” Leo’s songs are unique outpourings of heart-felt joy and connection, each track offers insight and clarity, the gift that comes from his ability to transmute life’s challenges into deeper awakening and sharing it through the time honoured medium of the pop song. Listen to these songs not only with the ears but with the heart … this will open that doorway to your own transformation

“Leo Drioli’s sound is similar to that of Cat Stevens and John Lennon – ruminations that are of an inspirational, motivational and expressive nature.” — Kyle Jarminer, The Examiner “I was on my way to work and just felt like I needed to listen to your EP again. ‘Let Your Spirit Sing’ is such a beautiful song. When I heard the words ‘Open Up My Heart, Show Me How To Love’... I just started welting in tears, seriously … I was trying to be conscious of other drivers not seeing me cry (ha ha). I played that about 3 times in the car this morning and just started singing to it.” — Elio, Composer of The Healing Codes Leo Drioli’s words and music, shared as Heart Songs, dig deep into our collective search and yearning for what is true, real and lasting in this world and beyond it. All his songs stem from that innate urge to connect to the depth of things and to realize our own true nature as Presence. His music carries on in the spiritual pioneering tradition of the inspired master singer/songwriters of the 60’s and 70’s. He acknowledges openly how much people such as John Lennon, George Harrison and Cat Stevens have inspired and informed his work … his continued efforts in spreading the eternal message that our true purpose here is to realize our soul essence and to channel it as love thus living beyond the grip of fear.

Polymyalgia Rheumatica? Avoid or minimise steroid drugs with natural approaches Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is a relatively common condition characterised by aching joints and morning stiffness particularly affecting the shoulders and hips but also can affect the neck, upper arms, lower back and thighs. Usually the pain is symmetrical but asymmetrical ar thritis of the knees, hands and feet can occur. There is usually no detectable swelling of the affected joints. It is twice as common in women and the incidence increases over the age of 50. Other signs that may be associated are a low grade fever, weight loss, anorexia, anxiety and depression and these occur in up to 40% of cases.1 Medical diagnosis of PMR is based on symptoms and elevation of inflammatory markers in the blood. Other illnesses that can mimic PMR should be ruled out including cancers of the blood and bone marrow, hypothyroidism, statin drug induced muscle pain, and other rheumatic diseases. PMR is associated with a condition called Giant Cell Arteritis that requires emergency intervention in order to prevent damage that may lead to blindness. The cause of PMR is unclear but genetic predisposition is suspected as is a viral link since the condition often has a seasonal variation. There is evidence that the disease is immune mediated (eg an auto immune condition).2 Medical treatment of PMR is with steroid drugs to suppress the inflammation. These drugs are not without risks in the long term including osteoporosis, hypertension, diabetes, cardiac failure, glaucoma and decreased immunity. Therefore it is worth trying alternative natural antiinflammatory approaches. In addition, natural medicines are available

which act as anti-virals and immune modulators. These might address suspected underlying causes. Herbal anti-inflammatories include Curcumin from Tur meric, Boswellia, Devil’s Claw, White Willow, Hops and Rosemary, Omega 3 fatty acids from fish or krill oils are also strong anti-inflammatories. Anti-viral herbs include Andrographis, Echinacea, Elder Flower, and Olive Leaf. Nutritional anti-viral approaches include high doses of buffered Vitamin C and zinc. Immune modulation or treatment of auto-immunity can be done with herbs such as Polypodium leucotomas and Ganoderma lucidum. In addition it is impor tant to check Vitamin D blood levels as low vitamin D is strongly associated with auto-immunity. Ideally the Vitamin D level should be over 100 if not 125. The current “acceptable” range for Vitamin D starts at 50 according to many laboratories. This might be reflecting the “normal range” eg average in our population but it is not the optimal range. In addition to herbs and Vitamin D supplementation for autoimmunity it is vital that the gut and liver health is optimised. We know that immunity is regulated to a great extent from these two areas by cells called T regulatory cells. A gentle gut and liver detox program involving specific probiotics, prebiotics and herbal remedies helps to restore the microflora (good bugs), decrease inflammation and modulate the immunity. We also know that viral loads are often carried in the liver thus supporting this organ, particularly with herbal medicines such as St Mary’s Thistle extract, curcumin and Andrographis is essential. Diet, exercise and lifestyle choic-

es are extremely important in PMR. Eating a “low stress” diet that decreases inflammatory responses is essential. I generally recommend eliminating red meat, gluten, sugar and all processed foods as well as decreasing omega 6 fats (from grains such as Safflower). Alkalinising the body with loads of fresh vegetables, particularly the green leafies either in salads, stir-frys, green juices or green smoothies is helpful. Identifying food intolerances may be indicated and this can be done with the IGG blood testing through a laboratory. Gentle exercise such as a gentle form of Hatha Yoga or Tai Chi is beneficial as is regular walking and stretching. Very gentle massage and other body therapeutics may help. The Ayur vedic hot oil massage may be particularly beneficial. Finally, working on stress is very important as stress increases the pain response. Specifically look to gentle yoga and meditation as this has been shown to decrease pain perception in many painful conditions. We also have a wide range of herbal medicines that can support the adrenals, the glands that make our stress coping hormones.

A Healthy Heart

I’m sure each and everyone reading this column knows someone with a heart disorder of some form, be it high cholesterol, hyper tension, artherosclerosis, thrombosis, cardio-myopathy or some such. So it is my aim today to give you all some helpful tips to improve the health of the cardiovascular system and in doing this, we enhance the health of the whole physical organism. As we all know the heart pumps blood and oxygen around our body to keep all our organs healthy and without this medium we simply do not exist. The ball is in your court so to speak, by making a few lifestyle changes I believe the quality of your life may improve. Here is a valuable example: my brother came into my clinic three years ago to give me a helping hand, he has cardio-myopathy, which is an enlarged heart, he has a pacemaker, he was overweight and also has insulin resistance. During the last three years, I’ve been making him up herbal formulas, he has changed his diet and I’ve sup-

ported his body with various supplements such as a good quality fish oil, CoQ10, Multi B vitamin, magnesium and zinc with B6. For tunately he has always been good with exercise, he plays golf several times a week and dances on most weekends. The improvement in his heart health has taken some time as with most natural supplementation, however, as his heart has gradually reduced in size, coming back nearly to normal, his cardiologist has gradually reduced his medication, going from taking five medications a day to one. “How good is that!” We are all unique individuals and this case was just an example, but nevertheless, it shows that we may be able to make positive changes over time by changing our diet and lifestyle. A few things to consider when looking at the cardiovascular system is that the most common underlying reasons for an imbalance in this system is inflammation, oxidation and immune dysfunction. When we

look at cholesterol for example, we look at the variation between the LDL (low density lipoproteins) and HDL (high density lipoproteins) and we also look at the level of triglycerides. One of the key factors found today is it’s not so much the levels of LDL, it’s the oxidation of the LDL cholesterol that is the problem and a key factor in development of atherosclerosis. Dietary choices such as high levels of glucose, as in soft drinks etc. appears to be one of the problems leading to the oxidation. Cholesterol (lipoproteins) also vary in size, HDL’s are smaller and LDL’s are larger, it’s also impor tant to measure the particle numbers and this can be done with an advanced lipid test by a company called Nutra Path. What can you do to help? A Mediterranean diet has been found to be very beneficial as it may reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) by enhancing clearance from the circulation. Increasing fibre such as oat bran, psyllium husks and pectins, which can be found in brans, apples and bananas and reducing saturated fats because they slow the clear-

ance of the LDL from the system. Exercise is really important as it may help boost HDL, the good cholesterol levels. Some supplements that I’ ve found beneficial are the omega 3 fish oil, which appears to be best taken with GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) and vitamin E to reduce Omega 3 oxidation. Omega 3 is an antiinflammatory and it may reduce cholesterol particle numbers and lower triglycerides. CoQ10 is an amazing anti-oxidant which may reduce LDL oxidation; it may reduce hypertension and is also known to support arterial and vascular health. Green tea and pomegranate juice are powerful anti-oxidants. Lycopene found in tomatoes may improve HDL functionality and reduce inflammation. Magnesium is important to support the heart and increase solubility of calcium which in turn reduces calcification of arterial walls. Niacin (B3) increases circulation and lowers fibrinogen levels, herbs such as Olive leaf, Hawthorn and Goldenseal have also been found to support the cardiovascular system. Resveratrol

found in grapes and red wine is also a very good anti-oxidant and has been found to be beneficial. Last but not least I wanted to mention lifestyle in regard to stress. When I was growing up my father smoked too much, he drank too much which stemmed primarily from the life he had to endure going through a war, he was a lovely man but in the end he had a stroke and died. You can’t abuse your body continually without consequences, so if life is too stressful and you’re using those vices, you need to find a way of managing that stress, you need to find something that brings a smile back on your face to give some reprieve from the humdrum of living in this world.

Glucomannan Fibre - A Weight Loss Supplement That Works Lose up to 8-10 pounds(3.6-4.5 kg) of weight in 5 weeks* GLUCOMANNAN is a natural, water-soluble dietary fibre extracted from the roots of the elephant yam, also known as konjac. It has recently gained considerable attention as an effective weight loss supplement. GLUCOMANNAN absorbs water and becomes gel-like. It “sits” in your gut and promotes a feeling of fullness, helping you eat fewer calories. It absorbs so much liquid that if you place 1/4 teaspoon into a bowl of water, the entire content turns into a gel. These unique properties are believed to mediate its effects on weight loss. GLUCOMANNAN is believed to promote weight loss via several mechanisms: 1. It takes up space in the stomach and promotes a feeling of fullness (satiety), thereby reducing food intake at a

subsequent meal. 2. Like other soluble fibre, it delays emptying of the stomach, contributing to increased satiety and it reduces the absorption of fat 3. It feeds the friendly bacteria in the intestine, which turn it into short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, shown to protect against fat gain in some animal studies. Feeding the friendly gut bacteria may also have other benefits, and some studies have shown a correlation between altered gut bacteria and body weight.

The Organic Market & Café in Stirling

For weight loss, take a dosage of 1 gram (1/4 tsp) in a glass of water 15-20 minutes before your meals up to 3 times per day

* Three human studies showed that glucomannan, combined with a healthy diet, can help people lose 8-10 pounds (3.6-4.5 kg) of weight in 5 weeks. (For more info on this study visit www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15614200 )

Certified NLP Practitioner, Life Coach and Meditation teacher

Connections

Connection. As with everything, we all have a slightly different understanding of the word and what it means to us. How do you relate to the word? What sor t of feelings and thoughts are attached to this word for you? Take a minute to think about this. What does connection mean to you? I believe connection is more than just being close to someone or feeling a pull towards something. It’s who we are. Whether we admit it or not, we are all social animals. We need each other, and not just because it would be boring on our own but because otherwise we would not survive. No matter how unique and individual we each are, every one of us is born with a need for love, sharing and understanding. From a young age we are told that we are each individual and separate people but I began to think that rather than seeing all living things as individual islands in a vast ocean, I see us as the ocean itself. We are what makes the ocean, and those small islands are the physical manifestation of ourselves which create the illusion of separateness. When you look beyond our reality and go deeper you find that we are all one and the same. We are all inexplicably linked on an energetic level which means not only can we see someone’s troubles or sympathise with them, we can actually be affected by them and take on their issues as if they were our own. Some of us are more sensitive than others and are consciously aware that this happens. For others it is unconscious, and they may never realise or notice it. We all would have experienced how easily someone else’s happy or sad mood can create the same mood in us, or how a room feels after two people have had an argument. This is energy and without that deep connection we all have we would not be able to pick up on these things or react to them. So always remember the link you have to everything else around you. Be aware that your ‘vibe’ or energetic field is quite powerful and what you put out will be reflected back to you, not only by your circumstances and experiences but by the people and animals that come into your life. They are drawn to you for a reason, to help you heal and learn the lessons you need for your personal growth. Accept their help and the lessons they have to share and you will not only release yourself from your troubles and problems, you will release them too. That’s the beauty of life; we are all in this together. Together we rise and fall, change and adapt and above all, grow. So take a look around you, at the people and particularly the animals in your life. What do they show you about yourself? What are they mirroring in you? Are there recurrent

themes that all of them have, or that keep coming back into your life? Be honest, this is an important step to freeing you and them from the cycle. Even though the people in your life are there for a reason and do reflect your inner self back to you, I find it a lot easier to use animals for this process, if you have any. I say this because after a lifetime of being around many different animals, particularly horses, I started noticing how much they tune into us and reflect and mirror our emotions, thoughts and behaviours back to us. Animals are all highly sensitive and far more connected to all of their senses than we are today which means they have a great ability to pick up on our ‘stuff’, be it mental, physical, emotional or spiritual and will be very honest and compassionate about sharing this. They do this without concern or hesitation to help you on your journey. Tune into them, listen to what they tell you and you will open yourself up for a powerful healing journey of self-discovery. We are here to help each other, and by doing so we all improve together. Don’t be afraid to connect in with those

around you. And the next time you feel alone, unhappy or down remember the deep bond you have with the life around you, whether you currently feel it or not. If you have a pet, spend some time with them. Meditate with them. If you don’t, go outside and spend time in nature. Go for a walk, meditate and tune in. By connecting to the things around you in a conscious and quiet way you are taking the first step to connecting and learning more about yourself.

Consciousness is the ability to be

present in your life in every moment, without judgment of you or anyone else. It is the ability to receive everything, reject nothing, and create everything you desire in life - greater than what you currently have, and more than what you can imagine. The target of Access is to help get you to the point where you are conscious enough to create change within you. Access offers tools and processes that make it possible to change everything that is not working in your life. Once you become more conscious, it will be easier for you to thrive in the face of the shifts that are occurring everywhere on the planet right now.

A Different Perspective

Access is a different point of view about life. It's about seeing all the things that you always knew should be possible but didn't know how to receive, with no judgment about the choices made in the past or future. Access gives people real life tools to use which can help them get to where they would like to be. From this perspective, a new reality is created where people function from choice and possibility in their lives. They function from a place where they are no longer at the effect of everything and everyone around them and where they no longer judge themselves. What is your awareness about your current reality? Do you see people being happy and joyful? Do you see a world where everyone is embraced or where everyone lives without judgment? Are children honored for their being, or are children manipulated and controlled to believe they are less than adults? Do you have the familiar feeling you are stuck or every time you take a step forward, you take two steps back? If (WHEN) you become conscious of what you say and think, your reality will change exponentially. Your thoughts and statements generate your life. You have the ability to create anything instantaneously. What if you were willing to be brutally honest with yourself and star t creating (generating) your reality? What would that look like? All you have to do is choose it. Although tools of Access Consciousness has generated a great deal of change in the lives of many people, Access does not declare itself to be the only way. Access empowers you to know what is true for you. It allows you to know that you know! Access is an ever-evolving method for altering the parts of your

life that don't show up the way you know they could. Access is not for the feeble-minded or the faint-ofheart. If you have the courage and desire to be truly you, the extraordinary you, the phenomenal you, maybe Access is for you. What if you were willing to nurture and care for you? What if you would open the doors to being everything you have decided it is not possible to be? What would it take for you to realize how crucial you are to the possibilities of the world?

Access Bars

Do you remember the last moment in your life when you were totally relaxed and nurtured and cared for? Or has it been a little too long since you received healing and kindness without any judgment of your body or your being? The first class in Access is The Bars®. Did you know there are 32 points on your head which, when gently touched, effor tlessly and easily release anything that doesn't allow you to receive? These points contain all the thoughts, ideas, beliefs, emotions, and considerations that you have stored in any lifetime. This is an opportunity for you to let go of everything! Each Access Bars® session can release 5-10 thousand years of limitations in the area of your life that corresponds with the specific Bar being touched. This is an incredibly nurturing and relaxing process, undoing limitation in all aspects of your life that you are willing to change. How much of your life do you spend doing rather than receiving? Have you noticed that your life is not yet what you would like it to be? You could have everything you desire (and even greater!) if you are willing to receive lots more and maybe do a little less! Receiving or learning The Bars® will allow this to begin to show up for you. Access Bar s® has assisted thousands of people to change many aspects of their body and their life including sleep, health and weight, money, sex and relationships, anxiety, stress and so much more. At worst you will feel like you have just had a phenomenal massage. At best your whole life can change into something greater with total ease. Taking the Access Bars® class is a prerequisite for all Access Consciousness® Core Classes as it allows your body to process and receive the changes you are choosing with ease.

The theme for Eurovision 2015 was building bridges and it is a very timely reminder for us all to reflect on. Given the number of scientific discoveries over the past decade or so and the continuing evidence from the new sciences, it is more than evident that science and spirituality are coming together as one again. However it also places many of us at risk again from the few who seem to want to dominate this planet. We are already seeing evidence of this in government policies and the effects of big business decisions worldwide. How do we combat this? By choosing to build the right bridges. We now know that our thought forms affect everything and our consciousness is ever evolving and expanding. We must be ever so careful of what we think and verbalise as it continues to give life to that reality. If we look around at what is happening in our society and all the ongoing statements, news, television, etc that perpetuate what is currently happening, we can see the need for us to modify our thoughts if we want society to change. The choice is ours. By reflecting on what we truly want and choosing our thoughts, and verbalisations carefully we can change reality. It may take some

time but consciousness and our reality can shift. The more people that make informed choices will speed this up. One bridge we can choose to build is to work on ourselves. How do we do this? We may need to modify our thoughts so we can produce and focus on the outcomes we desire. Reflection (or meditation) is a good start, allowing us to clarify what it is we are seeking. Using the new forms of healing such as Spectra Healing also allows us to connect with who and what we really are – our Higher self and the perfection that we are multi and inter-dimensionally. As we connect through light, sound, brain and heart we allow the chemical and mathematical codings that we need to enter our body’s cells and DNA to bring healing and balance on all levels - physical, spiritual, psychological and emotional. As we bring healing and balance into our body to move it towards its natural perfection we also receive a side benefit of a changing and awakening consciousness. This helps to bring forth improved clarity on what we really need to do and we can begin to build further bridges. We must choose to reduce our exposure to that which is intended to harm us or keep us dumbed

down. Remember that just the exposure perpetuates the reality. This exposure on many levels has existed in multiple ways through our entire lives. The increased awareness and clarity we are now beginning to have helps us to see the width and breadth of what we have been exposed to. We must recreate our environment by carefully monitoring our thoughts and speech. We must change our television viewing habits, the news we watch and even the music we listen to. Otherwise we are just choosing to remain repressed. It really is up to us to effect change. Be careful of the topics you discuss (for example conspiracy theories) and thereby give fur ther life and energy to. Talk about the future rather than the past, a future that you really want rather than a future based around potential damage from other’s actions. We need to move towards a sustainable ecological solution. Many of our illnesses would be preventable, or made less common, by a few lifestyle changes. External western societal pressures in current day life have a lot to answer for. Think about the products you use, the chemicals that are entering your body through your skin, the foods you eat, the amount of processing, chemicals and preservatives that are added, fast foods, sugar, artificial sweeteners, carbonated drinks and the list goes on and on. Make the change to healthier foods and therefore a healthier body. Once we have star ted to work more on ourselves we can build other bridges into the community and other parts of the world. Think about the world around and the effects other people’s actions have

on it. Are their actions fulfilling a responsibility to the community with healing and compassion or are they designed to fulfil their own agenda? People talk of universal love and personal freedoms but do they change their mindset to create this reality or do they continue on with their old thoughts and actions. Are their (and your) thoughtforms really going to move us towards positive change and reduce the repression that currently exists? Healing and balance not only on a personal level but also extended outwards more broadly is very, very necessary at this time. Become in tune with others who think similarly, reduce your exposure to the negativity around you, monitor your thoughts, actions and speech to truly make this world a better place for all not just an elite few.

BY VANESSA CAMPBELL Welcome to the 1st edition of Nessa’s Numbers! My name is Vanessa, through this column together we will go on an amazing journey into the understanding the ancient art behind the numbers better known as numerology! You will gain insight on how understanding the numbers can bring awareness into all areas of your life - love, career, finance, family, friends, health and travel. Numerology is neither a religion nor a form of fortune telling, rather a method of timing your decisions and actions with the univer sal rhythm of life. And the good news is you don’t have to be amathematician to understand, we will slowly walk through each component of numerology and basic arithmetic is all that is needed or a good old fashion calculator! So let’s get started ...

What is the history of numerology?

The ancient Greeks, Egyptians,

Chaldeans, Hindus, Hebrew, Babylonians, Assyrians all developed numerological systems of their own which have evolved over time and have been adapted to be applied in this century.

What is numerology?

Numerologists believe that we are not born at a set day or time randomly but more so at a predetermined point in time to learn impor tant lessons of the soul for THIS lifetime. Some may even call it destiny. Numerology is also a character analysis which uses numbers derived from dates of bir th and names to help answer the age old question of ‘Who am I?’ Numerology allows us to take an objective look at ourselves to discover our innate abilities and talents as well. A Universal Year means that everyone on the planet will be feeling the energy related to a particular number during the entire year from

January 1. The Universal Year is like the terrain you will be moving through all year long and is calculated by adding the numbers of the current year together. You calculate the Universal Year by simply adding the numbers in the current year (in this case, 2015) together like this: 2015 = 2 + 0 + 1 + 5 = 8 Everyone across the globe is experiencing an 8 Universal Year in 2015. The number 8 is described as the money, power, passion & rebirth number and can generate much abundance but the drawback is you must set your intention, have clear objectives, take full responsibility ,no excuses, no procrastinating or victim mentality will cut it and then be unwavering in your consistent application. The mind creates in pictures so to manifest your abundance a great way is with a vision board with all aspects of your life where you want to create abundance – romance, family, material possessions, work, health and wellbeing. Simply place pictures or words on a piece of paper/cardboard and place it where you can see it daily – first thing in the morning works best to set you up for the day totally focused. The number 8 is shaped like the infinity symbol of flow and continuity. By developing a vision board for your subconscious mind to visually soak in all your desires and goals , you will galvanize your inner resolve and daily habits will be inherently imbedded – that is the how the miraculous power of the subconscious

Self Acceptance ‘Being who you are is your one and only protection from all nonsense’ – Saliha Tajkal Growth Cards Who amongst us completely and utterly accepts themselves, warts n all, on all levels of consciousness even aside from mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually? Think about it, do you accept every single aspect and facet of YOURSELF? That’s right. That’s why you aren’t enlightened yet. That’s why in my opinion none of us are. Sure we have Master Teachers and enlightened beings who transit and visit the Earth for a sojourn in order to help ‘wake’ us up and signpost ‘the way’. Those rarefied beings are so few and spread incredibly far afield. It’s by no means even the slightest majority of us. And all of us teach best what we most need to learn. We are all learning and in the main, trying to help each other along the way. If we truly loved ourselves, accepted ourselves as perfection incarnate (which at God source we are) we would all individually be in a constant state of Grace, the embodiment of Love. We would then have no wars; we would have passed critical mass to shift the entire planet into the Golden Age. Like the old adage says “Charity begins at home”. Charity is about love, so superimpose Love for Charity, YOU for home and it would then be “Love begins at/with YOU”. That is the greatest charity you can give yourself. As a ripple effect; everyone else too. None of us have achieved that. No matter how pious or how wonderfully one speaks, or the godly actions one takes… When you’re in bed at 2am and awake all by your-

self… There will be something that bugs you, troubles you, niggles at you, that you are just not happy with. And you can trace, (if you care enough to), whatever it is entirely back to you yourself. Whether it’s a perception you beat yourself up about, a reaction that was triggered by someone you can’t forgive, even something physical about yourself… Whatever. Whatever the emotion, the thought, perception or physical effect – it’s all down to you. It’s all stuff that you are not happy about regarding YOU. There’s no love in that. Therefore you don’t fully accept yourself or love yourself. Like it was said before, we are all paddling that canoe (i.e. I could have done this better, I should have done that, etc. etc.) You can spend years, lifetimes even; peeling onion skin after onion skin, bleeding every torturous would dry, digging, digging back and back further still, uncovering all the reasons why. It helps to understand it – but it doesn’t change it. The planet doesn’t have time for that, literally, and In all honesty, you don’t have time for it either (bearing in mind that no time actually exists. We are all damaged, fractured beings in one way or another. We are here to experience and to come to consciously know our Light, our Beauty, who we really are. The fastest, surest way to that is to accept, simply accept, just as it is, just as the word suggests. Accept all the circumstances in your life as they are, in the NOW. Good, bad, or indif-

ferent, remembering it’s just a story. (In terms of lifetimes you’ve had many stories…) and you survived! Look you’re still here! Not even God can change the past. When people don’t accept; they get sick, one way or another. Do you want to die simply for righteousness? Would you rather be ‘right’ than let go of whatever it is, and just accept. You should know people have died just by hanging on to the bitter end to entrenched beliefs; refusing not to ‘not to be right’ or ‘justified’. By the way, surrender doesn’t mean ‘giving up in hopelessness or resignation’ – it means handing over to the powers that be greater than yourself… learning the lesson of humility and acceptance. So simply accept your story such as it is. Release all the grievances that you hold towards anything and anyone, and start to lead a creative, productive experience – when you do that so that it creates a shift in your cells, and by that it’s as if you can feel it in all of your cellular structures – then and only then can you begin to feel the love that’s already there for yourself, and that love will build and grow. Everything and everyone around you, in you, in your body, will become healthier, radiant, in divine flow and you will then live in a state of Grace.

The Human Predicament

BY DAVID LANE

Do you want to live in a healthy civilisation on a healthy planet? Do you want to gain greater control of your life, have spiritual and financial wealth, happiness, better relationships and health thus inspire and influence others? If so; you need to take action. The state of the world we live in is not very healthy and many people are worried about whether the human race can sur vive unless we change the way we do things. Who is to blame? The answer to that mainly depends on how we see the world. Those in the firing line of blame include; governments, corporations, religions, institutions, cultures and countries. The one common denominator amongst all of these is that they are run and controlled by humans. If humans are the problem then It would be a lot more constructive if we switched from the blame game to getting serious about understanding why the human race has gone down this path. One issue or common denominator seems to stand out when I look at and try to understand the big picture of this problem. The problem of individuality versus unity. Humans enjoy the freedom of being an individual along with the free will and freedom of choice that come with it. However the negative side of this individuality creates separation. Separation is one of the main causes of fear. There is another part of us that seeks unity and group consciousness. A by-product of

this is the safety and a form of love that comes in being a member of a group. The seeking of unity and group consciousness is innate within all of us because it is a pathway back to the ‘Oneness’ which we all desire whether we are conscious of it or not. The ‘Oneness’ where we all resided before the original separation took place. Here lies a huge problem; we want both! We want the deeper connection of a loving consciousness that comes with the unity of belonging to a group. We also want our freedom of choice that comes with individuality. Separation and unity are opposite polarities so how can we ever bring them together? Fortunately for us; there is a way. We have to learn to amalgamate the two opposites and thus finding the balance between the two. It is the balance that brings the harmony. The power that a few enjoy when they control or are in charge of the many is very selfish because it is mostly about the self. A common human perception is that power and wealth create security and safety. The illusion is that the more we have of these; the safer we become. The powerful and wealthy strive for more to feel even safer and so the divide between the ‘haves and the havenots’ deepens. Very few leaders have the ‘highest good for all’ in their hearts even if they think they do. These are the same people that are in charge or heavily influence the direction that governments,

corporations, religions, institutions, cultures and countries take. These leaders are not likely to see or want to change the status quo so how can we change this situation? Having said that, I recognise that there are exceptions to this norm and there are good leaders with good hearts in this world. The change all starts with every individual and this is the first level that we must work on. We change our selves and the world around us will change. This grass roots type action is essential because we have to change ourselves first. Once a small percentage of us change this will trigger the momentum needed for mass consciousness to shift. The change has to start at the bottom and work upwards – not the other way around. Our hear ts need to be open and our minds focused on the love and unity found in group consciousness. It all starts with you and me. When you find your own inner power and strength then you will have the basis to develop spiritual and financial wealth, happiness, better relationships and health; thus you will automatically inspire and influence others to find their own. Remember the spiritual teaching of “love your neighbours like you love yourself”. This statement makes sense because we cannot genuinely love another more than we love our self. If we try to then the energy of that love will on some level be superficial. There are ver y encouraging signs that the momentum of the love energy is building worldwide. One of the most recent examples is the masses in France that came together in one huge peace march against the terrorist attack. There is a sense of real joy as we watch the loving power that is being generated by these wonderful responses to fear. Love will prevail!

SEASONS IN TIME – SEASONS OF OUR LIFE MASTERING CHANGE

BY SUSANNE MARIE

Autumn is my favourite season! I had a wonderful discussion with a beautiful spiritual colleague about the seasons, over a delicious dinner at the Balhannah Hotel in the Adelaide Hills very recently. We were there reminiscing about a loving soul who had passed to the light a few years ago, a very dear and special friend. We both knew her well and were there with her in her final days. She always makes her presence felt whenever we meet together. A lively time of memories follows. I am sure she prompted our discussion. We were reflecting on the delights and challenges of change in our lives. The work that we do becomes an instrument of change. Changing beliefs helps us to more easily make necessary changes in our lives with great facility and joy. Life is very much about the seasons of life. In it we learn to take the good with the bad. We have stages when we have rapid physical, spiritual, mental or emotional growth and other times when all seems at a standstill. We learn how to take the good with bad, how to focus on the good and leave behind the bad. When we experience challenging or difficult times it brings out the colours in our character, making up part of the kaleidoscope of our life. As we experience the seasons, take the time to look for and see the

beauty in yourself. How do you see yourself through all the seasons? Being in the Adelaide Hills as I am means I get to clearly see the changes in the seasons. Autumn is such a time of glorious colour. Witnessing the colours of the leaves as they change and fall from the trees is a delight to behold. The beautiful warm days with loads of sunlight contrasted with a sudden burst of heavy autumn rain, which is so cleansing and refreshing to the soul, is one of the many thousands of reasons why I have chosen to live in Aldgate, Crafers and Stirling for most of my adult life. Walk along the main street of many hills towns in autumn and observe the riot of colour. It is uplifting to the soul and the world feels great. It is a time for looking at the beauty of life. Autumn is a time of preparation for nesting in for the winter to follow. Winter, by contrast is a time when many trees have lost their leaves. There can be a feeling of bleakness or starkness. At the same time, look on it as a time of nurturing of the soul, of staying indoors and snuggling up in a rug or by the heater. Use the winter as a time of reflection, use it as a time of decision making, of planning and of gratitude. Sit in the warmth and be thankful for a cosy home and warm clothes and food to eat. Reflect on all that you are grateful for in your

life. Focus on all of those things and see more of them appear as you focus on them. It can also denote the winter of our life. Moving on to the last days of life can be a challenge for many. See it as a time of witnessing the circle of life being completed. See it in the light of love and the fulfilment of all you have come to this life to achieve. Be thankful for all that you have achieved in your life. After the winter comes the spring with its riot of colour reflected in the trees with blossoms, new leaves and the many seasonal spring flowers and bulbs that erupt and ask you to notice them. It is a time of new life, of new love and of new beginnings. Be excited. Do some spring cleaning and start afresh to clear clutter from your life both physically and figuratively. Star t to emerge from your winter shell and reach out to others with a feeling of joy and anticipation. Summer is a time of war mth and happiness and enthusiasm. It can also denote the best times we have experienced in our lives. I always thought it was great when we reached the summer each year. There was lots of warmth and lots of sunshine. It was not until I had an Australian summer, then spent 5 months in the United States of America during their summer and then came back to- yes you guessed it- another Australian summer, that I realised fully the value of the contrasts of the seasons and the changes they bring. See your life as a series of seasonal changes. Embrace those changes. Accept that life means change. The more fully you are able to embrace change, the more you are mastering life and the more fulfilled you will feel.

Reiki for Life

BY JENNIFER SHORT, Holistic Therapist Reiki was never intended as a healing process. Dr Mikao Usui discovered the healing attributes of Reiki while going through his own spiritual growth. Now he and others have brought Reiki to the world. You can use Reiki for many purposes, apart from self healing and the healing of others. For instance,

did you know you can eat and drink Reiki? You can clear your room with Reiki. There is a specific symbol that can be used to improve your memory. You can charge your bathtub water with Reiki. You can use Reiki energy to help you fall asleep. You can use Reiki to heal past hurts. You can even use Reiki to find something

30mins $ 30

you have misplaced. Use Reiki to wake you up at a specific time like an alarm clock. Reiki can help you find that elusive parking space, charge electrical appliances – even your smartphone – purify your food, reduce side effects in medication and prevent accidents. It literally has no limits. Only we do. When blocks occur, with negative thoughts, doubts and straying from living to the Reiki Principles, Reiki can appear not to work. It’s vital to ensure the Reiki practitioner is in line with the codes and principles set down generations ago. And then be open to receive the dynamic, powerful yet gentle healing energy that is yours for the asking. Let’s take a look at seven excellent moments when we can Reiki ourselves. This exercise assumes you have been attuned with the Reiki symbols (Reiki Degree II Level). 1. When you are waiting in a queue; 2. On public transport; 3. While watching TV (especially good when the ads come on); 4. While you’re waiting for your computer to ‘wake up’; 5. Prior to any business meeting where you’ll need a focussed mind; 6. In a lift or on the escalator; 7. Just before you fall asleep at night. As you can see you can tap into the power of Reiki any time and anywhere you need it.

3 useful and interesting facts about where you can use Reiki

1. You can Reiki your purse or

awakening one community at a time . . .

wallet by visualising an energy ball that energises the contents with abundance. Use affirmations like “I am a generous giver and an awesome receiver!”. Use the intention that any negativity around your wallet or purse be discharged leaving it full of love. Love your purse or wallet. Share the love! 2. You can Reiki your mattress before going to sleep. You can imagine it filled with a network of light and golden-white Reiki energy and send your intention that it be discharged into your body throughout the night, as it is needed and all for your highest good. You’ll wake fully rested and energised. 3. You can Reiki your gym gear. You can charge your shoes, workout gear, equipment and bathers by using the power symbol on the inside of your shoes etc.

7 great times to send Reiki

1. After everyone has gone to bed; 2. After sending the kids to school; 3. After making love; 4. After ending a phonecall; 5. After a party or gathering; 6. After a nightmare or unpleasant dream; 7. After guests have left your home. Anyone can learn and be attuned with Reiki. If you haven’t already, take the first step and get connected to the infinite healing power that is REIKI!.

FREE UP YOUR BODY PAIN! Try EFT tapping

Chances are, you are feeling more pain than you need to, now that Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT tapping) has been let loose around the world. Janice tried tapping and now her knee pain is history. People from all walks of life are reporting less or no chronic physical pain after EFT treatment, plus they learn what to do if the pain returns. EFT is a simple stress relief healing aid, science-based. You can learn to do it for yourself, and you can also have help from experienced EFT practitioners, in person or on Skype. Drug-free relief from suffering, both emotional and physical, has attracted millions of people around the world to EFT tapping. In my own practice as an accredited EFT practitioner and trainer, Janice limped into my consulting room bent over and trying not to cry from ‘bone-on-bone’ knee pain she’d suffered from for six months. She’d had to leave work. An hour later she walked out upright and free of pain… with a huge smile on her face. How did we do that? Surprisingly – we used tapping to dissolve deep angers she had felt for decades. Such a dramatic result does not always happen, but it is not uncommon.

Chronic pain typically has an emotional component, according to modern research Chronic pain is defined as pain you’ve suffered from for more than 12 weeks. (for new pain, see your doctor.) Whether the cause of the pain is thought to be car accident, operation, sports injury, burns, illness or something else, physical pain often yields to EFT’s simple finger tap techniques. In all those cases and more, countless people have repor ted success, either par tial or complete. Natural pain relief often occurs quickly with EFT, but in some cases it may take more persistence. How does it work? EFT tapping on face and body resonates and soothes a person’s meridian energy system (which acupuncture utilises via needles, although for far fewer possible outcomes, as EFT is also a life management tool). Har vard Medical School researchers have found that acupressure calms the brain’s fear centre, while another study has demonstrated a 24% reduction in the stress hormone cortisol after just one hour of an EFT tapping session. Your meridian system is your personal electromagnetic energy

system, and it is easily disrupted by stress, both emotional and physical. U.S. sports performance expert Stacey Vornbrock uses EFT to help athletes minimise physical pain from injury, and to speed recovery. She says, ‘Tapping is a biochemical process that speaks directly to the body, bypassing the conscious mind.’ Boilermaker Ivor had to stop work because of a workplace accident that left him in chronic pain. He could walk only several metres. Ten years after the accident, Ivor had six 1-hour sessions of EFT treatment with me, during which we used tapping to reduce his longheld anger about his situation. After Ivor dissolved years of resentment, he reported that he was then ‘able to walk twice as far’. Annie O’Grady, author o f‘Tapping Your Troubles Away with EFT’, is a transformation coach, EFT and Matrix Reimprinting practitioner and master trainer (AAMET).

PsychicREALMS WITH ELISABETH JENSEN

CREATING A SACRED HOME WITH SPACE CLEARING & BLESSINGS Space clearing your house is a good idea at any time but especially when you move into your new home or apartment or your current one feels heavy and stuck somehow it’s vital really to ensure your future comfort, health and success in life. It’s really best to star t with an empty house when Space Clearing so allowing an extra day for this before Moving Day is a good idea. Even if the house is physically clean it’s good to clean it yourself quickly using natural products where possible as these have a much higher vibration and its good vibrations you are wanting to create! A real enthusiast will even wash all the inside walls where possible using a mixture Orange and Lavender pure essential oil and Sea Salt in warm water as this clears out the energy vibrations of the previous owners besides giving your home a heavenly aroma - at least do this in the bathrooms, toilet, kitchen and laundry. To create a Sacred Home know that intention is everything when you are working with energy so hold the mindset as you do this that all energy that is no longer needed will float out the open windows. Prior to star ting cleaning the house it’s a great idea to see yourself in a big Rainbow Bubble of Light otherwise you might end up with a feeling of sudden emotional energy overload as you can inadver tently take on heavy energy yourself into your Energy Field & body. As you empty the vacuum cleaner or throw the water out it’s better to place or release all waste outside the house – empty the bucket of water into an outside drain and see any sadness or despair that was in the house released back into the earth for transmutation into positive energy.

SPIRITUALLY CLEAR YOUR HOUSE

Many people like to buy a bundle of dried sage from a Health Food or Metaphysical Shop then light it and allow the flame to go out, then while it’s still smoking walk from room to room waving it around while imagin-

ing the smoke taking any negativity out the open window or door. Personally I can’t bear the smell of Sage and often end up with a headache and much prefer censing with Frankincense Resin – you will see this happening in some more traditional churches or temples – and I find this is great to really clear both negative energies plus any unwanted spirits in your house. The Frankincense can be burnt on charcoal in a special censor or just in an old saucepan works well too. Therapeutic Grade organic essential oil of Sacred Frankincense works well too in a diffuser or oil burner but this isn’t quite enough by itself. Add 10 drops each of Frankincense, Rosemary, Lemon and Juniper to spring water in a Spray Bottle and simply spray each room while mentally banishing all that is negative and sad out the window. Of course if you have unhappy spirits in your home you often still need to do more meditation work here or ask a professional medium to assist you to send them to The Light.

HOLD A BLESSING CEREMONY

Our Opening Ceremonies today for new buildings comes from ancient Egypt where every par t of every building was Blessed and had its” Mouth Opened” or was brought to life by the Temple Priests or Priestess. That is the appropriate Egyptian Gods and Goddesses would be invoked to infuse positive energy into the building which would then be seen as Animated or Alive and be able to breathe and exist as an independent positive Divine Entity. So to bring your home to life it’s great to sit quietly and burn a candle in the living room while seeing the sun shining lots of bright light into and all around your home. Then see the Earth beneath your house and in the garden suddenly seeming to come to life as if in a children’s Faerie Story – you are aware of faeries in the garden, earth gnomes appear outside on the grass and Angels join you in the living room.

SOUL TO SOUL Q & A WITH CINZIA VUAT Q Cinzia my Husband has to make a big work decision. Can you see anything to help? Rosemary, NORWOOD

The whole house seems to breathe a great sigh of relief as you realise its alive with a great personality and waiting for you to move in and start really loving it! Then request your own God or Goddess to Bless your house and of course a statue of the Virgin Mary, Buddha, Eastern Goddess Kuan Yin or Egyptian Goddess Auset/isis will bring a calming and nurturing feel to your home. Remember if you place any sacred objects or statues in your new home you need to “activate” them or ask for the energy and blessing of the Divine to be in them.

CREATE YOUR DREAM HOME & LIFE

A short meditation and visualisation to imagine yourself in three months’ time living a Dream Life in your Dream Home will set the energy for this to happen. Finally do bring that exciting vision back to the present time so your big Move In Day will go well and your freshly cleared home will stay that way. Welcome Home to your Sacred Home !

A Hi Rosemary, Your husband is planning to leave his current job. He’s starting his own business. Pay attention to marketing and internet opportunities. The business will be very successful with huge expansion potential which I see occurring through it going online. Q Dear Cinzia, I have seen you before and you have been spot on with what you predicted will happen. This time I have a specific question only; will I sell one of my businesses? Nick, UNLEY

A Dear Nick, No I do not see you selling one of your businesses. Your businesses will go through a growth stage and I see overseas travel as you will be encouraged to invest in a franchise. I don’t know how the travel connects in with the franchise but it (the travel) will come and the way I see it coming up I believe the two are linked. I see expansion for you not sale! Q Hi Cinzia please can you help me as I’m concerned about my son and my daughter in laws relationship. They are talking about separation. Can you shed any light or offer any advice? Tammy, KENSINGTON

A Hi Tammy. They are both going through a testing time and I feel that pressure from your Son’s work and issues at home with the children are causing what feels like a state of “being stuck”. It feels to me like Groundhog Day. This state of affairs is going to shift slowly through this year as your daughter in law will be finishing study, I see her graduating, possibly the completion of a degree. It will affect her sense of self-worth. Also changes in your sons work will lead to a change for the better. Don’t worry it will all blow over. Q Cinzia will money and work improve for me soon? Shelly MODBURY NORTH

A Hi Shelly, I sense that circumstances at your work will change this year. I feel one or two staff are leaving in the near future and you will be asked to do more but I also see your wage will increase accordingly which I can tell has been a big concern for you. That’s not all though, things just keep getting better for you in the longer term. The most significant change is next year! I can see you will start your own business which will be very successful and it will be financially rewarding . I see you very happy if you follow that

path which will not open up for you until next year. Q Hi Cinzia, My mum is in a nursing home and not well lately. She seems to have slowed down and I am worried about her health. Can you see what is happening with her health please? Amanda WAYVILLE

A Dear Amanda – Sorry to hear about your mum, she is such a lovely person! I see she is usually very strong but I think you do have cause for concern as I sense she is slowly letting go. Spend as much time with her as you can because her health may shift suddenly if this process continues. She loves you so much. You are blessed to have each other. Q Cinzia please can you help me confirm a love relationship around me at the moment. I have been in a relationship for four months and I’m wondering if you can see it lasting? Ally ADELAIDE

A Hi Ally. Definitely this person has strong intentions to build this relationship with you long term. I see and feel the long term commitment. He seems to be very much connected and in love with you, and you with him despite your past based doubts. He isn’t going any-

where. The only running he will be doing is straight into your arms. Congratulations! FEEDBACK Dear Cinzia. Thank you! You said that this year my husband and I would finally sell our farm. It had been so long that I thought it would never happen. I can’t believe we just sold it in the precise way you said we would which made no sense originally. It gave us great confidence during the negotiations.Thank you for all your help and support during the year. We are so happy!

enrich not only her own life but the lives of many others. Trish is a Kinesiologist, Reiki Master/Practitioner and Massage Therapist and also a gifted channeler receiving messages from the Masters and works as a tool for delivering their teaching. She is being urged to teach their wisdom so that is next on the agenda, along with facilitating Reiki I & II workshops in June/July at Port Augusta for which she is seeking expressions of interest. Testimonial - “From first contact, I was immediately at ease & knew within my heart that Trish was the real deal & had no hesitation making a booking with her. My intuition proved accurate as did Trish’s reading with no less than 95% accuracy.” Nigel, Hervey Bay, Qld. Trish has recently opened at Healing Centre, Total Balance at 75 Commercial Road, Port Augusta.

and can also be taught to channel messages from Archangels only a few want to promote themselves as a Professional Psychic or Medium so this course is proving popular. Indeed I truly believe using psychic abilities to encourage a client to follow their own Soul Path and create positive change and even miracles is a more valuable skill than simply giving a predictive reading.

Raul Estevez

Communicate with AA Mic hael through an Angel Card Reading with Raul Estevez. My relationship with Archangel Michael started when I was 8 years old; I was jumping over the fence from my friend’s house to mine, when I collapsed and fell to the ground. As I was laying on the ground I saw a blue light and a friendly voice said to me, ‘My name is Michael I am your Guardian Angel. I have with me my friend Raphael and we are going to help you, just relax please!’ I then saw a green emerald light surrounding me, I was placed into a healing bubble, and it was a comfor ting feeling for me as a young boy! I suddenly went to sleep very peacefully! Then after a while I woke up to the voice of Michael saying “Raul, Raul wake up and look at the blue light” and I did then he proceeded to help me up and to walk home, from that moment onwards Archangel Michael has been My Wingman. Now I can help you get messages from him with an angel card reading!

Eye on the Sky WITH GERRY CROW

Astrologer, Clairvyant Medium, Healer and Teacher

ASTROLOGY June - Aug 2015

The Full Moon in Sagittarius initiates this quarter with the fire element and her beaming enthusiastic light on June 3rd at 12 degrees. She awakens our internal traveller, teacher, prophet and humanitarian. I liken this energy to that of the Celtic Goddess Cerridwen –the one who shape-shifts, the governor of change, the protector of the cauldron and the Goddess who prepares us for the Winter Solstice. Neptune intensifies this Full Moon with a square and under this influence you may let go of illusive dreams and be reminded of your true inner teacher/guide, or become aware of your programmed emotional responses. Venus enters Leo on June the 5th offering a possibility for romance or to begin a heartfelt relationship with someone loyal and generous. Also presenting an excellent creative time, whether you experiment with colours in redecorating your home or taking time to get out the crayons with the children in your life, it’s up to you...enjoy and play! Saturn continues her retrograde journey and from June 17th returns to Scorpio for the grand finale of her 28 year cycle in Scorpio, then re-enters Sagittarius on September 18th. If you have any personal planets or major angles in late Scorpio, Taurus, Leo or Aquarius you have a final opportunity to have plans or dreams come to fruition through discipline and hard work. Saturn retrograde in Scorpio reaches into the depths of your psyche and soul and will persist with limitation and right timing, until you understand the lessons you have needed to undertake for renewed inner structures to be created. Be assured that any difficulties will ease and a new awareness will be attained as Saturn goes direct on August the 2nd. The Sun moves into Cancer on the 22nd June, the Wheel of the Year turns and Winter Solstice dawns, this night will be our longest. However as the diminished point of light is reached, the light begins returning and the rising ember ignites the cauldron, induces our rebirth, germinates promise and brings us renewal led vitality into our lives, projects, plans, wishes, hopes and dreams. In July there are two full moons; the month opens with the Full Moon 10 degrees in Capricorn on the 2nd and closes with the Aquarian Full Moon at 8 degrees on the 31st. The Full Moon in Capricorn emphasizes issues in the work place or could have you focused on finances. There is an influence from Pluto which may bring out what is hidden (from you), within these issues to enable renewed and improved ways to achieve your goals. Additionally in the first week of

July, Venus conjuncts Jupiter and there is a favourable aspect by Uranus, bringing an abundance of fire energy for new and exciting relationships, creative projects and midwinter adventures. The Capricorn Full Moon offers the earth energy for grounding all these fiery ideas and ventures, therefore be sure to make your wishes clear to the universe, to allow manifestation beyond your wildest dreams! The Aquarian Full Moon shines the light on your individuality, the unusual and the rebel. Ideas on how you can make your mark in the world could surface. You may begin to question authority. Ask yourself what matters to you politically and spiritually? And from this questioning you may look to a new and different direction. On the 2nd of August the Wheel of the Year moves further forward, increasing the light –that sparked at the Winter Solstice. Welcome to Candlemas! By connecting with your self through meditation and/or sacred ceremony, you can reflect upon your spiritual progress within the light (within), make any amendments necessary to keep moving toward your realised potential and make commitment to the realistic action needed to manifest your dreams and goals. Jupiter enters Virgo, on the 11th August and remains there until September 2016. Under this influence, those born in Virgo, Taurus and Capricorn, will have increased faith and trust that steady careful planning and action today, will bring a bright and stable tomorrow. The sign of Virgo requests that we concentrate on one project or idea at a time, approach our work with ‘a detailed eye’ plus we need to have a committed attitude by researching any information thoroughly and being consistent with facts. The impact of Jupiter in Virgo could also be a year of rare self-discipline for the Sagittarians, grounding for the Pisceans and a few novels written by the Geminis. There may be a strong need for you to achieve success in tertiary education or adding new skills and techniques to accomplish the next step on your career ladder. Alter natively, you may find a strong desire to change your daily routines in health and well being, discover practical ways to ser ve humanity, or simply involve yourself in a new meditation practice. Jupiter in Virgo may not sit comfor tably immediately, there could be a tendency to overwork, expand on too many ideas at once and get lost in a number of projects. However when the higher mind of Jupiter broadens the detailed knowledge of your Virgo house, the innovative

skills that can be developed and materialised will be its own reward and fortune. This quarter closes with the Pisces Full Moon rising on the 30th of August at 6 degrees accompanied by Neptune and opposed by Jupiter conjunct the Sun in Virgo. These influences can bring an intensely high level of connection with your Spiritual Guidance, a renewed faith in mystical matters and is an eminent occasion to dream, wish and plant your intentions into the cosmic flow.

The Wisdom of Gabriel

BY CAROLYNN MILNE

This is more of that fundamental wisdom that changes lives. We sometimes let go of the present moment and allow the fear of the future and regret of past to overtake our Joy and Grace. I always associate Gabriel with a deep and compassionate love, but also a great wisdom. Gabriel: “Do not fear what you don’t understand. Do not fear what could happen. Do not fear possible negative outcomes. Fear only clear and present danger. It is too easy to let your life slip by worrying and fearing things that don’t exist, that never happen or that are not at all harmful, if and when they do occur. Expend no more time and energy on ‘what might be’. Concentrate on making the most of the present moment. Fill each present moment with positive emotions. In this way you create an abundant and successful life for yourself.” Gabriel gives us the option to live happy and abundant lives. It is that easy, but we do have to choose. Gabriel: “On that plane you cannot see the whole of your Soul’s glorious journey, or know the whole of your Divine plan. It is still possible to call for and receive Divine help to change your own, or a loved one’s outcomes, but only if it complies with your own Divine Plan. If you are thinking that all of the Angel messages are about Love you are right. Love is the greatest force in the universe. Unconditional and Divine Love is the greatest Love of all. Close your eyes now and remember the Love you experienced in your childhood. Yes, you did feel the love, but at the same time were you also empowered? You can repeat this

exercise for the whole of your life, whenever you need a power boost. Remember not just the Love but also the personal power that went with it. Can you visualize living every day with this power and Love and what a joyful and achieving life that would be? When you live in the power of Love, all of your relationships are happier, communication is easier and even boring, tedious work becomes a breeze. Can you imagine your plane if everyone lived in the power of Love and in the present moment, that would be Heaven on Earth. That is what we Angels are trying to achieve, Heaven on Earth, or as above so below. It is hard to be negative or hurtful when you are living in a state of Love and impossible to be unhappy. Love begets Love and happiness, Joy and contentment. It is not easy, but it is the most rewarding thing that you can do, not just for your lives, but also for your soul. Living in a state of perpetual unconditional Love is a natural state for your Soul and will strengthen and enhance it. We will help you with this.” This great Angel gives us the fundamental wisdom that will allow us to live our lives successfully and happily. Choose wisely, Carolynn.
