From the Creator of HBM...

eing an entrepreneur is a rich tapestry of experiences. It’s exciting and heartopening as you create something out of nothing and have people contribute to it and watch it grow. It can bring up any fears about yourself and your abilities and continue to shine a spotlight on those areas, providing a great opportunity to transmute them and step into conscious being. When things are flowing and expanding you may feel 10 foot tall and bullet proof and then when life circumstances like: floods, GFCs, bushfires, family stress or loss, health issues and more show up, it may feel like a hundred steps back. But that is usually the time when you dig deep and find out who you really are and what you are made of. And that doesn’t always mean the

business continues, it may be a conscious closure of the business and then asking what is next… Business doesn’t have to be a torturous experience, when you ask for what you would truly like to create and are willing to receive it (and also receive support and guidance along the way). It involves putting people and structures in place to ensure the ease, flow and sustainability. It’s working with both the magic and making the moment-by-moment choices and actions. What a great gift Holistic Bliss has been in my life and I feel so fortunate to work with an amazing team who love cocreating. When I look back at those first few ‘primitive’ editions that were 8 pages, it feels like such organic growth over these 11 years and an amazing adventure on all levels that continues to bring me a variety of learning and experiences.

Pumpkin Fritters with Zucchini Hummus RECIPE COCOLIFE

(SERVES 4) The combo of super crispy fritters and zesty, fresh hummus is pretty much perfect. Try it once and we promise you’ll soon be making it every week, like us! Ingredients: 600g butternut pumpkin, peeled and cut into small pieces 2 large eggs, beaten 1 garlic clove, very finely chopped 3 tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves 3 tbsp almond meal 3 tbsp arrowroot or tapioca flour Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper Avocado oil Sesame seeds, to serve Micro herbs, to serve (optional) ZUCCHINI HUMMUS 150g zucchini (1 medium-sized), cut lengthways into thick ribbons 3 tbsp flat-leaf parsley or mint leaves Zest and juice of 1 lemon 1 garlic clove

Avocado oil 1 tbsp tahini ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper ¼ tsp sea salt Method: 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with baking paper. 2. To make the zucchini hummus, arrange the zucchini ribbons on the prepared baking tray in a single layer and roast for 10-15 minutes, or until lovely and softened. Transfer the zucchini pieces to a food processor with the remaining ingredients and blitz to a smooth puree. Set aside. 3. For the fritters, set a steamer over a saucepan filled with a little water and bring to the boil. Add the pumpkin, cover with a lid and steam for 3-5 minutes, or until tender. Transfer to a bowl and mash with a fork, then add the egg, garlic, parsley, almond meal and arrowroot or tapioca flour. Mix well to form a smooth batter. Season to taste.

4. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Working in batches, carefully lower heaped tablespoons of the batter into the pan and gently flatten with a spatula. Fry for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. 5. Divide the fritters among plates, top with dollops of zucchini hummus, a drizzle of avocado oil and sprinkle sesame seeds and micro herbs (if using) over the top. Enjoy. thecocolife.com.au

FOOD FOR THE SOUL

Manuka honey:

L iquid gold for gut health

WORDS JOEL GRACE

ne of my favourite gut health products at the moment is Manuka honey. This isn’t just any regular honey. Manuka honey is shown to have antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can be particularly useful in a variety of gut-related issues. A longused staple for sore throats and skin ailments, we’re now seeing impressive results in the fight for better gut health. How is Manuka honey different from normal honey? Native to New Zealand, Manuka honey is produced by bees that exclusively pollinate flowers on the Manuka bush, making it distinct from traditional honey. The honey contains an active ingredient called methylglyoxal (MGO), which has specific antimicrobial properties. All Manuka honey is both raw and unpasteurised to preserve the active compounds. You might notice that Manuka honey jars display ratings that indicate the antibacterial strength of the honey inside. The rating system used can

range from MGO, UMF (unique Manuka factor), NPA (non-peroxide activity) and TA (total activity). Regardless of the scale used, generally the higher the number, the higher the antimicrobial activity, and the more potent in addressing digestive complaints. It can help your microbiome Manuka honey has been shown to assist in balancing the bad bacteria levels in your gut, which can aid digestion, prevent infections and help build immunity. It’s a gentle but effective prebiotic that feeds the friendly bacteria in your gut, such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. It can help with parasites While the science supporting this is still in its early stages, there are encouraging reports suggesting Manuka honey may be effective in treating one of the most notoriously difficult human parasites to treat, Blastocystis hominis. Patients report a dramatic reduction in symptoms such as bloating and diarrhoea that often go hand-in-hand with Blasto infections.

It can help with stomach ulcers It’s also effective against Helicobacter pylori, the bacteria responsible for stomach ulcers. It works in a kind of two-pronged approach; acting not only as an antibacterial agent against H pylori bacteria itself, but also through its prebiotic properties boosting levels of a specific strain of Lactobacillus that can protect against stomach ulcers naturally. It can help with food poisoning Clostridium difficile is one of the main bugs that causes the most severe cases of food poisoning, and generally triggers unpleasant and painful diarrhoea in infected patients. Manuka honey has been shown to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, which can alleviate symptoms more quickly. Importantly, while many people swear by the miraculous benefits of Manuka honey, there is still a lack of clinical trial evidence to support its efficacy. But when medicine tastes this good, what have you got to lose by adding a teaspoon or two to your diet? www.sunshinecolonics.com.au

Can you step up into your WORDS DOM LIV KAMAL

usiness is challenging from the outset. If you are like me and have spent your whole adult life self-employed, then you get used to the ebb and flow of each week. Eventually, the patterns start to emerge, and you can see where the cracks are. Then you try to fill them… and that is the interesting part of business. It’s all very well to look at your strengths and what is working for you, but the real growth happens when you look at the weak links – the unattended issues and areas of your business that you are scared to step into. What are they for you? For me, they have been about letting go of my old habits and beliefs; letting go of methods and practices that have worked in the past, and being open to new ways of business.

best version of business? This is not always fun, which is why I take herbs all the time. I take Hypericum, Gotu kola, Schisandra berry and Ganoderma mushroom. I look after my emotional body, my mental self, my physical body and my immunity. I also get up early and do my personal Kundalini yoga practice, go to the beach or go for a long walk. These things all help set me up to step up. You see, if you set yourself up personally each day, then you set yourself up business-wise each day. You can step into the best version of yourself in business with good nutrition, good herbal support, good exercise, good experiences and the mind of a beginner – a mind that says, ‘yes’ and is open to change. That’s the route to a successful business.

On rare occasions, a window of opportunity shows itself, like a slither of a glimpse into the future and into what you can create. It is a magical door that you need to jump into and say a big yes to when you want to grow and develop your business. That window often opens itself when you least expect it, and can close very quickly. It is also an opportunity to become the best version of yourself, and if you open up to this with love and positivity, then amazing things can happen. Don’t let fear stop you. Help yourself in business every day by being the best version of you, and then let the rest follow. www.medicineroom.net

Cannopathy – WORDS MELANIE LEONTINE

Cannabis is at the very beginning of a craft and educational renaissance. It’s emerging from the legislative shadows and a second awakening is occurring: people are proactively seeking information about how to properly consume and enjoy it. – Leafly.

tarting up your own Cannabis sativa L. venture can be daunting with the ever-changing Australian and international cannabis laws, legislations and medical research. This is why you must be well equipped with the tools and tactics necessary for your personal success in the cannabis wellness industry. However, looking at the success and benefits of cannabinoid research, laws and becoming a ‘CannaEntrepreneur’ is one of the most rewarding areas of natural well-being you can discover.

the science, biology, the hope

The team at Cannopathy assist others to become CannaEntrepreneurs by clarifying the myths and misconceptions surrounding medicinal cannabis and introducing you to a closer look at the functions of the human body’s endocannabinoid system and cellular receptors. Those who become a Cannopathy Canna-Entrepreneur, gain a greater understanding of how specific cannabis species, strains and compound structures are being used in modern medicine and wellness; and most importantly, when medicinal cannabis can be useful and when it should be treated with caution. Our students learn about the role of clinics that prescribe suitable dosages for each patient’s needs and get up-to-date information on current cannabis laws. You might be wondering what

Cannopathy is, or you might want to know more about what you have already heard, but either way, there is something wonderful happening here because the results and testimonials are indicating a very effective and exciting product without the ‘high’ or ‘stoned’ feeling. Cannopathy is 100% legal world wide and is not detected in drug tests such as blood, urine or roadside swabs. If you would like to become a Cannopathy Canna-Entrepreneur email Stephen at info@cannopathy.com to learn about our upcoming introduction training seminars and opportunities within the cannabis wellness industry.

Start the day

ready for success!

WORDS TRISH ROCK

ow often have you woken up on ‘the wrong side of the bed’ and just knew that the whole day was going to suck big time and things would not be going right for you? It makes you want to run for the doona covers again and not emerge, right? I have been putting into practice new habits for waking up ready for success every day and have found that these simple choices and actions each day are truly making a difference to how I feel and what I attract daily. Feeling peace and happiness are just two of the side effects you may experience when you follow these three simple ways to create a day ready for success: 1. It begins the night before! Before you go to sleep is an important time. When you take the weight of the day with you overnight into your dreams, it has a habit of still

12.indd 1

| APRIL 2020 | Holistic Bliss

being there in the morning. It’s like the record of the old keeps turning and playing and then, creating more of the same the next day. Use the last 5-10 minutes of the day (or more) to truly tune in to how you want your life to FEEL. You may like to tap into your vision of that or even think about something that day that made you feel good. Feeling good is the key here. 2. Start the day with thoughts that feel good! Do you wake in the morning and immediately go to your problems? The bills? The arguments? The leftover anger from the day before or the worry you have about something or someone? Set yourself up to have something that makes you feel good to focus on. Personally, I love the birds singing outside my windows and tune in to the beauty and joy of that! Just 5-10 minutes of this habit in

the morning will allow a new focus to dominate. 3. Meditate for 10-15 minutes So many of us say we don’t have time to meditate, yet we will spend a good 30 minutes or more on our devices and social media in the mornings (PS: This is the worst way to set yourself up for success! You inevitably fall into comparison, fear and worry!) Set 10-15 minutes every morning for you. Wake up earlier if need be. Use this quiet time to tune out of your mind and into connection. It will change the direction of your day, mind and focus! These three things alone have changed everything for me. The basics of a spiritual practice that truly could transform your life day-by-day also. Start tonight. Start. Try it out. Try it on. Start your day ready for success! www.TrishRock.com

Stepping into authentic visibility takes more than you think WORDS SAND MEW

any people want it: to live their purpose, generate a great income doing what they love and make a difference at the same time. Unfortunately, not many people get there. Sabotage, procrastination, fears, distractions and other patterns have a strong grip and bring most people to the point of giving up. I’ve been working with thousands of conscious leader clients globally over the past 16 years, helping them connect with their purpose, monetise it and take the brakes off their limitless potential so they can unapologetically share their gifts. I’ve witnessed over and over what it truly takes to step into authentic visibility and increase your purposealigned income and impact with ease. Most people think it’s their own fault when things don’t flow and/or business is not thriving. They think they aren’t made for it, blame their circumstances and start doubting themselves. On my own journey from near bankruptcy to

multi-figure purpose-driven business, I’ve established four key principles that are vital on the journey to monetising your inner calling and ‘having it all’, which I’d like to share with you today. 1. Remember who you are First, you need to connect with your unique purpose, message and 100% aligned expression modalities. That does NOT mean finding a label that best describes your technique or modality and fitting into a box! On the contrary, it’s about connecting with the unique cocktail of experiences, skills and stories that make up YOU. 2. Know who you serve and connect with them The clearer you are on your authentic message and why that drives you, the more aligned and authentic your way of communicating this to the world will be. It’s about understanding exactly who you are and what you offer, as well as who you are offering it to, so your ideal people will be able to find you.

3. Hold your space and speak from the centre of your power In order to unapologetically share your gifts with the world, you cannot hold back for the sake of what others think, but listen within and follow that guidance and voice confidently. 4. Free yourself of a lifetime of emotional baggage, conditioning and upper limits Our experiences, no matter whether past life or present, get stored in our body as a representation for our subconscious. The good news is that trapped emotions, stories, beliefs and conditioning can be released via acknowledgement and potent clearing via the five elements. That way, you can take your life back, ditch sabotage, go for your dreams and enjoy better health, fulfilment, income and impact. The time is now. Take the brakes off. The world needs you. Together we rise. www.SandMew.com www.TheFootprintConnection.com

ow is your business travelling? Are you ticking all the boxes, spending each day in line with your values? Do you feel content at the end of each day, knowing that you are making a difference in the world? If the answer is ‘yes’, that is fantastic, but are you also profitable, and is the business growing? Running a business can be a very lonely place at times, when you are overwhelmed with everything that needs to be done, and you have limited resources and not enough hours in the day. My business has been running for 19 years, and I have had many ‘challenges’ and learning opportunities along the way. If you are trying to manage everything yourself, it can be exhausting as well as overwhelming. I learnt very quickly to identify my talents and then delegate or outsource to others, so that I could spend more time doing what I do best. Goals & Dreams now has a

total staff of eight working together as a team. We moved offices in February, and I was both humbled by and grateful for the way everyone pulled together, rolled up their sleeves and made it happen – all whilst providing excellent service to our clients. We have built great systems and documented our procedures over time. However, it didn’t happen overnight. Everyone is responsible for their part of the process, which I liken to a production line. Let’s imagine we are a wine bottling company. It’s someone’s job to wash the bottles, another to put the wine in, someone else puts on the label, while another puts the lid on and another puts the bottles into a carton. You get the picture. If someone doesn’t take responsibility for their role, all the bottles come crashing down. We frequently ‘down tools’ and take time out to work on our ‘factory’ processes, with everyone contributing and feeling part of the team. Also, having team members who are skilled

in different areas is vital, especially if you have a small team. The more multiskilled your team, the more the business hums. In the early days, I tried to help everyone without being adequately compensated. I underestimated my value and the difference I was making to my clients’ lives and situations. We have a huge postcard board on which we display cards sent to us from happy clients who are enjoying the journey and achieving their goals and dreams. Don’t forget to celebrate your achievements and milestones along the way and open that bottle of champagne!

Celebrate you and your business WORDS JEAN SHEEHAN

Calendar®. I have not celebrated myself for speaking on cruise ships. You see, a few years ago I took my husband on a cruise ship for the first time and I was entertained by a speaker. I said to myself, “I will do that one day”. That was in August and the following year in November, I found myself speaking on my first cruise ship. At that time, I was editing my first book. My mind was so focused on the editing, that I did not acknowledge where I had come from to where I was. It is a huge achievement to speak about medical intuition to ‘mainstream’ and especially on a cruise ship of 2000+ people. The following year again I spoke on a cruise ship and I was editing two books this time which I wrote in five days. Again, I did not acknowledge or celebrate me and what I had achieved. Why am I telling you this? It is a must for you to celebrate yourself in life and business. I had done elsewhere but it is only on this 8th cruise I suddenly said “WHAT AM I DOING?” Life is a celebration, especially if we are alive and able to eat, talk and walk.

I have learnt to celebrate my other achievements such as creating the world’s first accredited medical intuitive courses, the world’s first and only medical intuitive cards, the world’s first and only Amazon bestselling colouringin book and eBook colouring-in book, teaching medical intuition at university, winning awards as a medical intuitive and having created my own business from just a tiny concept. Today make it a MUST you celebrate you each and every year. Celebrate yourself as a person and all you have achieved, tried and been. In business, it is so important to see yourself! To Vanessa Finnigan, her team and Holistic Bliss Magazine, I celebrate you for your 11th anniversary of this amazing magazine. Having written in it since 2011, I love it and celebrate you.

The business of life WORDS GAYLYN AITKEN

never set out to be a businesswoman and that label still feels like it doesn’t quite fit, but I guess that’s what I am after 30 years creating and managing a massage and movement business in Gympie. It began as a need to take control of my life, not just my income. But I was primarily driven by the desire to learn what I was capable of and to make good use of my time, so when I take my last breath I’m celebrating rather than regretting my life. I began training in massage in 1990 and as soon as I completed the first four-day Swedish massage module, I put an ad in the local paper. To my amazement, on my first day, I had four bookings and two of those clients rebooked. I rested my massage notes on their pelvis as I struggled through the sequence, and I still smile at that memory. That was the beginning of this journey that has turned out to be one of self-discovery. For the first

time in my life I found I was good at something and I couldn’t get enough of learning – aromatherapy, kinesiology, acupressure, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, physics, yoga and all styles of massage. It wasn’t until I found my teacher, Kahuna Abraham Kawai’i, that I learnt how to pull all that information and experience together into a format I could use to help others learn to know themselves through bodywork and movement. I’m still learning; I don’t see an end to it and encourage others to continue seeking new experiences to promote personal growth. I understand that my business is a part of me and reflects my inner life; therefore, the prime focus of Kahuna Mist is promoting self-responsibility by owning and inhabiting one’s body with awareness and compassion. Learning how your body naturally moves, while sensing it in motion and rest, will teach you how to restore its functions and, in doing so, expand your awareness of

your capability to courageously fulfil your potential. My toolkit for a successful and enduring business are life principles: • Be honest in your dealings with yourself and others. • Be clean with money matters. • Pay your bills with joy. • Be real. Sooner or later, the mask of insincerity will slip. • Do what you do first for you, then others will benefit. • Be humble and say yes to learning. No one knows everything. • Mistakes are an opportunity to refine. • Never take anything personally. • Lead by example. • Know what is your business and mind it. • Be adventurous without being foolish. It’s a short life, live it to the full. www.kahunamist.com

ENTREPRENEURâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S TOOLKIT

Is something

holding you back

from success?

WORDS SARAH KOTTMANN

unning a business or creating something from nothing and then making it into business is not easy. People see overnight success and think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what happens, but the truth behind that success is years of pushing through the ups and downs, the lessons and self-development that keeps us from succeeding the way we view success. I am in my ninth year of business this year and can honestly say it has been a roller-coaster at times. But through it all, I have learnt some profound lessons about myself. Because I care deeply about what I do, when an obstacle presents itself, my fears start to surface and my self-esteem changes. I

have faced and overcome some deep fears, such as the fear of success and being worthy of it. One tool I have used over the years is connecting with an inner selfawareness to work through why these fears ignite within me and where they originate. Then I can let them go or move a little deeper into the underlying feelings that caused the fear in the first place. However, there have been times when other tools are needed to dig deeper into unlocking what is causing me to not rise to the next step. These tools include homeopathy, reiki and craniosacral therapy. All these systems work on balancing the energy within

us and everything surrounding us. An emotion has energy, a feeling or thought has energy; we are mostly energy. So, once we balance our inner selves, we can manifest and be open to success. If you are feeling the need to balance your inner energy or feel like something needs to be released for you to move to the next stage of your life or business, then I am here to help. One of the reasons I love what I do is I can work on releasing those inner suppressions that are holding you back and balance the inner energy so you can move forward. www.northlakeshomeopathy.com.au

Integrative medicine,

business and

simplicity

WORDS DR CARLOS SANCHEZ

ometimes, my job as a family doctor can be a little confronting. It’s not just looking at a human body and trying to repair it as if it was a machine. Other really important factors influence our health, including the stress of life that everyone is exposed to. We cannot escape this, but we can modify our perception of it. Stress is something made by us, and its consequences depend on how we face it. In modern society, we need to earn our living. People can get really submerged in their jobs and become obsessed with making a lot of money, without realising that material things can’t buy you happiness. I don’t argue

that it is nice to enjoy nice things, as long as you are aware that you are not really the owner of things but simply the custodian while you are alive. We see a lot of families torn apart by fighting over material things after the death of a loved one. It is insane to not realise that sooner or later, we all have the same fate. In the end, it’s about finding a balance between living comfortably with what we earn, and doing something that really satisfies us as a person, trying to make a better world, without focusing on our own selfishness. I can say I feel proud of my work because I really enjoy what I do, trying

to make people healthier and help them temporarily pause and reflect on life. It is very rewarding to see the changes and get paid for it. The Dalai Lama has a saying: Men lose their health to make money, and then lose their money trying to recover their health, and by thinking anxiously about the future they forget the present. They live as if they are never going to die, and die as if they have never lived. Keep it simple, enjoy the ride and take with you the only things you can – the beautiful experiences of life. www.ibukihealth.com

spiritual entrepreneur through motherhood

Finding my WORDS REBECCA-LEE

have worked for the government for most of my life. I have always been a bit of a go-getter who wanted to keep reaching for more. It took about three years to fully adjust to motherhood and embrace myself as a mother. Those first few years were rough as I let go of the younger, less evolved parts of myself and discovered whole new aspects. I knew this was the next initiation in my life. After trying to juggle motherhood and work, and negotiate more flexible working hours/working from home, I soon realised that the push for balance between both worlds was more stressful than the balance itself. I wanted to make something of myself, but I also wanted to be with my kids as much as possible. After a huge push from the universe, I decided to leave the stability of my government job and pursue work for myself that aligned with who I am, and began studying to become a life coach.

When I fell pregnant with my second child, it was difficult to function properly, as I was overcome with severe morning sickness for most of the pregnancy. However, I knew that along with my sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soul beginning to enter his and my body, a huge amount of high vibrating energies and downloads were coming through to me. I received more insight and ideas for me and my business, but it was more than that; the visions were a plan that I needed to trust and follow, no matter how outrageously big they were. My relationship with the spirit world intensified, and I began to just let go and surrender and listen to the clear guidance coming to me. Since that time, I have been following guidance from Spirit through the highs and the lows. As my children have grown and I have grown as a mother, I have also grown as a spiritual entrepreneur, and nothing can prepare

you for the deep and amazing shifts this journey brings you, if you let it. I see so many women feeling pulled because they want to do something with their lives, but feel constrained by being a mum. What I would say to those women is that being a mum is an initiation that brings out your spiritual entrepreneur; because Spirit has a plan for you. However, who you need to become to follow your inner higher insights and be that woman largely happens through your learnings and initiation of motherhood. We are all different, and not all of us take this entrepreneur journey through motherhood. But for those who hear the yearning, embrace who you are becoming as a mother, connect with your femininity and tune into Spirit. The answers around your divine purpose will be there waiting! www.highvibrationcity.com

transformational speaker and trainer, Jack Canfield has much wisdom to share in these areas, as he has walked this path for over 30 years. Through the magic of Zoom, I was fortunate to interview Jack from his home in Santa Barbara, USA. The scene was set straight away as he warmly said hello and my eyes were drawn to the very large collection of books

in the background of his office (3000 books to be exact, according to Jack). Straight away, his energy spoke to me as the archetypal teacher with sage advice and he was also quick to share that he is a perpetual learner, always challenging himself with new learnings and experiences. Jack is a living example that persistence and a ‘can do’ attitude

pays off. After working as a high school teacher, he joined a training company for two years, before going out on his own. In the 1990s he teamed up with Mark Victor Hansen and they received over 100 knock backs from book publishers before Chicken Soup for the Soul was picked up and then became a series of books and a billion dollar empire that touched the hearts of people all around the world. Success didn’t just fall in Jack’s lap, he created it. “To start with, my mother-in-law gave me a $10,000 loan. I had to be successful immediately. I didn’t have time to fail. I didn’t have much capital, so I had to make it work.” He said looking back, his advice to people desiring to start a business would be to have money to sustain them in the early stages of the business. And then make profitability a priority, have a business plan and partner up with people who have skills that you don’t. Jack explains there are seven aspects to a business: the product, product development, marketing, sales, PR, finance and admin support. To start with he wore all these ‘hats’. “I learnt everything I could about everything,” he said, but eventually hired other people to help in those different areas so the company could grow exponentially. If you are an holistic-preneur, you may be still cringing at the idea that sales is a part of business! Coming from an education background and then working as a psychotherapist and coach, Jack said he too resisted the area of sales. So how can you move beyond the resistance? Jack suggested to learn as much as possible about sales and check out various online classes. And you don’t have to use fear as a sales tactic, instead learn the art of persuasion and learn how to deal with rejection. It’s also about identifying and changing your unconscious limiting beliefs (usually developed from childhood) around money and self-worth. He said when you work on these areas you can believe in yourself and your product from a deeper level. “Become so ‘attractive’ that people find you. It’s not so much about what you are doing but what you are being,” he shared. Jack has spoken to and trained millions of people, and has recently trained 3500 people through his Train the Trainer program which is now teaching his work in 117 countries; and at 75 years young, he is not idle with his creations. Although how Jack defines success now is more in terms of “fulfilling your soul’s purpose”. It incorporates every aspect of his life and he openly shared with me that his vision board includes not only his business goals and plans to finish three books this year but also physical health goals and time with family. In fact, he recently spent a month in India visiting an holistic health clinic, to detox, rejuvenate and focus on a plant-based diet. After rupturing a disc in his back a few years ago, he stopped exercising and said he was consuming too many calories, so health and fitness are areas of development for 2020. When you run a business, it’s easy to forget that spending more time with loved ones is good for the mind, body and spirit, and Jack mentioned his vision board is very specific and includes 100 days this year enjoying his wife’s company and 30 days with his six-and-a-halfyear-old grandson without engaging in any work. Apart from teaching, learning, and spending time with his family, Jack says dancing, listening to music, making music (he plays the guitar and is learning the piano) as well as chanting, bring him great joy and make for a well-rounded life. Jack is a man who continues to make an incredible impact around the world, but what I wasn’t expecting was how easy he was to connect with and how the interview in itself was a catalyst for change. “If you can dream it, you can do it.” – Jack Canfield.

Insights from Sandy Forster Having a passion for personal empowerment and all things success-focused, I sometimes have to pinch myself when I think about what I’ve manifested in the last 20 years. Coming from being on welfare and $100,000 in debt, I never imagined I would not only meet, but become friends with some of the world’s biggest names and leaders in the transformational space. I’ve met transformational leaders from all backgrounds… CEOs, trainers, facilitators, thought leaders, authors, movie producers, coaches and more. I’ve watched (and experienced) them deliver their work in the world, both online and in person, through workshops, trainings, seminars, books, films, speaking engagements, coaching sessions, TV and radio shows and special events. I believe a true transformational leader recognises the potential in others, inspiring and empowering them to become their best self, guiding them to create every aspect of their life to be as they desire it to be… on a personal, professional and spiritual level. A transformational leader holds a vision of what success is and inspires others to not only want to step into that vision, but to believe it’s actually possible for them. They have their challenges, the same as everyone else, however they make it a habit to respond in ways that generate the outcomes they want, even during extremely tough experiences or events which may be beyond their control. These challenges and how they overcome them, allow the transformational leaders to support their community with even greater compassion and connection. Recently with Jack Canfield’s blessing we founded and launched the Association of Transformational Leaders here in Australia and gathered the leaders in the personal development industry from around the country for its inaugural meeting. ATL Australia embraces connection, collaboration, learning, networking, freedom, community, growth and mutual support, allowing each individual to have a greater impact and enhance their effectiveness and contribution around Australia and the world. SANDY FORSTER is a mum of two, a bestselling author, an award-winning entrepreneur and has mentored over 55,000 women all over the planet. www.wildlywealthy.com

Being a conscious

aura Di Mambro blazed onto the wellbeing circuit like a bright star when she was divinely guided to create the Conscious Life Festival on the Sunshine Coast in Qld in 2011. She is a visionary and communicator and says an idea should pulse from within your whole-being to be a successful entrepreneur. “Creating something, starting something, takes a lot of energy and space, so you should be doing something you feel driven and purposeled to do,” she said. Like most inspirational stories, Laura’s incredible entrepreneurial success was born from a pivotal point in time that led to her amazing story. “There was a collection of divinely guided moments, signs and events that happened all close together. It included the heartbreaking loss of my mother at only 58, my son being three months premature and my own cancer journey

creator

shortly afterwards. It gave my whole life a new urgent meaning and a changing realisation of what I wanted to do with my life. I was inspired to leave behind a successful (safe) career to pursue my soul-calling to be someone that connects people and creates conscious change.” Laura classifies herself as a changemaker and has been on this entrepreneurial journey for nine years. “I took a chance and followed a path that unfolded before me. I am so happy I did, it was a path that led to the creation of the Conscious Life Festival which has become the second biggest event of its kind in Queensland, and attracts speakers, teachers and healers from all over the world. Thousands of people visit each year from right across Australia. It is a two-day mind, body and spirit event featuring a collective of conscious creatives, family-friendly fun, workshops, beautiful shopping and a celebration of soulful teachers and students.” Laura’s heart and soul runs

through the Conscious Life Festival and she makes the extremely incredible accomplishment of creating and successfully running the event look relatively easy because of her talent for organisation and design. Laura discovered through her new path that she had a gift for creating spaces that facilitate profound change and learning in vast numbers of people at once. “I have such a passion for what I do and because of that, I love to encourage others to see their potential and passion as well. If I could impart one piece of advice to anyone on the entrepreneurial journey or considering following a calling or new path, it would be to always believe in yourself, trust and do not be led or swayed by others. Always feel into what you are doing, the decisions you are making and trust that gut instinct – it’s powerful.” “What you think you become” – Buddha. www.consciouslifeevents.com.au

spiritual toolkit

for any

challenge

WORDS SYLVIA E BURNS

ould there be a universal toolkit we could use in every aspect of our lives? As well as protecting us, these tools would help us stay open, creative and flexible as we meet the challenges of life. This toolkit is freely available, a gift we can pass on to others seeking keys to greater balance, joy and freedom in their lives. Highly adaptable, it takes up no space and allows us to travel lightly. The go-to component of this kit is a spiritual multi-tool, the sacred sound HU. A spiritual seeker since my youth, I first learned of this spiritual multi-tool decades ago and use it every day to open my spiritual eyes and ears and connect with my true nature, soul. A regular practice of singing this sacred sound HU, along with my spiritual studies in Eckankar, expanded my spiritual toolkit. HU connects me

with my highest awareness and opens me to guidance from my inner teacher. From this higher state of consciousness, I can welcome the waves of life for the learning they bring. HU has become an integral part of my work. Before engaging with a client, I pause, open my heart and sing HU silently, inviting the highest good for the person I am about to meet. I am humbled by the direction these conversations take at times, experiencing divine spirit flowing through me to bring insight and comfort to those in need. I am most grateful for having discovered the secret of a joyful heart, as Harold Klemp says in The Awakening Soul, “When our hearts are open to God’s love, then the divine power can use us as an instrument to pass divine love and blessings along to others”.

As I discover more about the nature of life and my toolkit reveals the everpresent divine love and guidance that is here for us all, I am compelled by the freedom this knowing brings to help others who seek it too. This is the joy of serving life as a volunteer in Eckankar. I am reminded of Joseph Campbell’s words, “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way”. Each day is an opportunity we all have to learn more about divine love, how we might give it, and how we might experience it, in even the smallest of ways. Isn’t this a fundamental principle of successful business, strong relationships and our own general health and wellbeing? www.eckankarqld.org.au

ENTREPRENEUR’S TOOLKIT

Powerful tools that transform the way you lead others in business! WORDS MIA MUNRO

have never quite aligned with the way many create success in business, particularly in the past few years. Following the mainstream approach, I experienced many dysfunctions in the frameworks and functionality. They were creating burnout, internal conflict and often separation from the things we value most. Seemed insane to me. So, I went on an adventure to seek new ways of being in business. I want to share my perspectives, not for you to follow but to consider, so you can define your own. I am an advocate for working out your own toolkit by leaning into the examples of others, while ensuring you customise one to suit your own needs. Modelling others reduces authenticity and we would much rather meet the real and unique you! Here are a few components of my toolkit that have delivered me great success and allowed me to positively

impact many lives. Stay open and see what might work for you. 1. Be clear on your mission, vision and intentions for each project within your business. This facilitates clear communication to teams, clients and through marketing channels. (So often my vision was crystal clear in my head, and I expected others to just get it. But when I took the stance that it was my role to create clarity for others, then everything began to flow.) This means choosing a team who is open to digesting your truth. 2. Create rituals that allow for the ebb and flow of your personal energy. Your energy needs to dictate activity, not the other way around. 3. Ensure you define your boundaries and space in your workspace to optimise focus and minimise interruptions when you need to be in flow. (This has meant removing

assumptions. Most humans operate with unspoken expectations and hidden assumptions. I like to assume that no one knows what my boundaries are and communicate them clearly. This one’s a big gift!) 4. Have a powerful feedback system and reward honest feedback. Humans love receiving feedback when it is given with the intention of growth. We also often need to give feedback but rarely do, unless we feel empowered and safe to do so. This involves developing a deep sense of trust and maintaining open communication. 5. Alignment is one of my favourites. When we feel a deeper sense of purpose or alignment in what we do in our businesses, our energy often seems to match this. Now it is your turn to create your toolkit. Have fun! www.miamunro.com

ENLIGHTENED CHANGEMAKERS

with

Anne Aleckson

Entrepreneurship in an awakening world is different than anything we’ve ever done before. Gifted changemakers, lightworkers, conscious practitioners and spiritual teachers can no longer force themselves to follow what are often outdated strategies that are soaked in hustle, convoluted complication and push, push, push. It’s been uncomfortable to do so and more often than not, just does not work for us the same way it did in the past. Enlightened Changemakers, let’s take back our power around business and the way it is done in the new world. You are a physical manifestation of the universe – the greatest creator in the world, and you have the ability and the creativity to allow yourself to receive whatever you desire… whether that is a new marketing funnel or a new purpose.

his month we answer a reader’s question around her purpose and give a different perspective on business and marketing as an entrepreneur serving the spiritual, conscious and awakening markets. Q: I love what I’m doing but sometimes I feel trapped in the marketing and as a result I lose momentum. Then I start wondering if I’m even on the right path. Am I following my soul path? – CD, Law of Attraction Coach. A: What a great question C. Yes, you are on your soul path. I know this because I know that ‘life is happening for you’ and you cannot get it wrong. I also know that you are the universe made manifest and therefore, your thinking that you must be ‘doing it wrong’ can only be coming from that part of you that thinks you are separate from and less than the universe. The truth is that you are not separate from or less than the universe. In the field of oneness and infinite possibility you are the universe. Now let’s address the second part – if what I’m saying above is true, and it is, then when you are feeling good and in alignment with your true self, you know you are on your path. Conversely, when you have to ‘do’ marketing you slip out of that alignment due to your thinking that you are not good at it, don’t know how to do it and you have evidence of these things

because in the past you have tried marketing and it didn’t work. In that moment, you are stepping into what you think and believe you know about you, your business and everything else. And out of alignment of the truth of who you really are. In the field of infinite possibilities, including the idea that you are the universe, you ask, it is given and you receive. Your path, when it comes to being in alignment to your marketing, is to allow yourself to ask for the most easy, flowing solution to your need AND then to receive it through inspired action i.e. taking action only when inspired to do so by your soul. When you bring this into your marketing efforts, you will stop trying to ‘do’ marketing and you will simply share what you do with those who have asked for it (through their own asking of the universe) and it will feel like a dance perfectly orchestrated between you and your ideal clients.

Introducing...

Michell Mercer

A woman, mother, grandmother, wise change facilitator, teacher and practitioner of Holistic Pulsing, creator of amazing travel experiences, medium, events organiser and a lover of life, Michell helps her clients to get to the nitty gritty of what and where stuff is sitting in the body and then to gently release it. Michell says, “The one thing we each have the power to do is change ourselves. I would like to see people being in their power, acknowledging their childhood limiting core beliefs, creating true

Enlightened Changemaker LK Tommi teaches young people to develop self-mastery, through the body and brain connection. Using the skills of breathing, emotions, thoughts and energy, she provides a proactive approach to mental health difficulties, aggressive or difficult behaviours. When children have embedded the skills into their body and brain they develop self-mastery, confidence and the ability to create their own life experiences. “When I teach the skills of self mastery to young

community with each other, living a life that brings them peace and happiness and not ‘more possessions’. I want us all to treat each other with respect, build a world in which we are helping and supporting each other.” As an Enlightened Changemaker, Michell has always tried, especially for her daughters, to lead by example of being a brave, bold woman, a decent human ready to face life with an openness and the courage to leap into the unknown, and as she reaches her 60th year this year she offers lots of experience to share with you so that “together we can help each other grow”.

We’ve had graduates of the ‘Me, Myself and I’ course go on to own their own businesses and to know from a young age the career they wish to pursue, developing a strong direction for their lives. “It is essential that the children of the next generation learn the skills of self-mastery. We can’t stop young people from having negative experiences but we can teach them how to understand the experience and then move on into a brighter future.”

One question to

expand your business

WORDS CORY MICHELLE

eople have been telling me that it’s impossible to truly be you, have a thriving business and, dare I say, receive millions. Say what? I ask them to tell me more… They tell me that to receive millions, you’ve got to make sacrifices, do work you hate and work so hard you burn out; none of which is being you. Well, I’m here to say that is all BS! Does an entrepreneur ever feel like asking, “What the heck did I choose this for?” Well, I did. After years of struggling, working 70 hours a week and not financially thriving, there were many times I felt like giving up and just getting a job. But I still had this dream of having freedom, living anywhere in the world, having plenty of money, serving amazing clients and being an inspiration. Truly, this dream drove me. And I’m like most entrepreneurs; we love

what we do and have a vision of what is possible, right? So if you are ready to up-level your business but aren’t making the progress you’d like, I have a little tip that might give you a boost. Some people say that working harder, getting the right funnel or working more hours is the way to grow your business. I did that, and trust me… it doesn’t work out well. After years of not truly thriving, I had an epiphany. I was continually being the same version of myself. Working hard and working a lot were in my wheelhouse (learned from my grandfather), and I was really good at both. Then, like a lightning bolt of awareness, it hit me… if I wanted to make my dream entrepreneur life a reality, I was going to have to be different in my business. So I got my journal out and began writing out all the ways I could be the

CEO of a seven-figure business. I wrote it all down. What showed up next – in my face – was that I would need to change the way I functioned in my business. I would have to up-level my choices to match where I was going, instead of waiting until I got there to change. And there it was, the clarity of how to up-level my business. I was stuck on a hamster wheel and I wasn’t a hamster anymore. I had tapped into a new version of myself, a sparkly unicorn CEO who immediately tapped into the consciousness of her future self and made choices from that level of consciousness. It was pretty rad. Everything in my business changed because of this one question: “If I was the CEO of a sevenfigure company, what would I choose and who would I be?” Try it. See what you become aware of for yourself! www.evolveevent.com

Business as a

spiritual quest

WORDS JANET McGEEVER

think one of the hardest things for me in business was stepping out from behind a neutral business name and operating under my own name. The feeling of exposure and perceived judgment, and being more visible was a decision I had to grow into. And it took a long time. It brought up so much: What will people think? Will they think I’m full of myself? Business, and especially entrepreneurship, is one big personal growth leap. In fact, it’s a series of many leaps. If there is anything that needs to shift, to be healed, you can be sure business will bring it to the surface. To stand out in any way means exposing yourself to all kinds of projections. It means risking rejection, risking reputation, risking leaving the ‘tribe’ and standing on your own. It can be scary, as belonging to a tribe is a basic human need, alongside food and shelter. Even though Australia as a country is slowly beginning to celebrate

30.indd 1

| APRIL 2020 | Holistic Bliss

diversity, the ‘tall poppy’ culture is still rampant. It means risking your very own concept of emotional survival to break away from the tribe and from being ‘the same’. That’s why business and leadership can transform you if you let it. It becomes a spiritual quest. This is because there’s something that has to come before personal insecurities; something more important than being part of a society that wants to cut you down rather than celebrate you; something beyond what even your mind thinks you should be doing. And that’s your authentic purpose. I remember people talking about purpose years ago and thinking, “What is it? What is my purpose?” Some people know at a young age; most grow into their purpose. It evolves as you grow. Everything in your life has been orchestrated to take you to the path on which you are now standing. Everything. Even the most painful

journey leaves an indelible mark on your soul. And eventually, once you have been in the trenches, you realise the only thing to do is transform that pain into something meaningful: to serve others, to serve humanity, to bring joy, to bring healing, to bring beauty, to bring pleasure, to bring relief for those suffering. When your desire to serve humanity in a way that is sustainable to you overtakes your desire to survive and protect your personality, then you know that you have a purpose. I am not saying I am totally there yet. I still feel vulnerable about being seen, but I am willing to stand strongly for what I believe in because I know it’s helping others. And for that, I am humbled.

What makes a

successful (happy) entrepreneur?

WORDS SHAUNA TEAKEN

or the past three years I have travelled almost constantly with my business – including Europe twice a year, Tahiti (absolute paradise!), Russia (challenging), USA (different!), Brazil (wow), Corsica (wonderful), Mexico (OMG) and Japan (love it) a few times. Before that, the farthest I’d been from my home in Australia was New Zealand. 10 years ago I could not have imagined my business expanding in this way! My income has multiplied many times over while I travelled. I’ve been self-employed for over 40 years. I’ve learned along the way, and at 61 I’m still learning. People buy you and your energy pretty much no matter what you are doing. So it’s important to be happy and enthusiastic and these are choices you make day to day. I’m certainly not an expert in many things! But I can always find someone who is! 1. Take a course in social media

and learn how to use it. Having a basic knowledge of Facebook and Instagram really helps. Get over any resistance you have! 2. Be the best you can be at all times – get a makeover with a personal stylist so you know your best colours and dress styles and wear them – look a million dollars in your photos (professionally done shots that reflect your personality) and if you are presenting live to a group, a class or at an event, dress up! It matters! 3. The one thing I have found most challenging with travel or when I’m at home juggling multiple time zones – is to keep moving. Don’t give up on walking, swimming, dancing, whatever, every day. 4. Find your ‘cheerleaders’ – that is, people who love what you do and who talk and post about you, and reward them. Enthusiasm is infectious. 5. Enthusiasm – vital – sometimes

you have to create it – immerse yourself in what you love, read about it, research it, choose to be enthusiastic about your business, what you do, your life. 6. Do the most uncomfortable things. A few years ago someone suggested that if I wanted my business to grow, I had to make videos. I got very angry – I was super comfortable doing voice-only telecalls and presenting to groups live, but something about being on camera terrified me. I cried before my first attempt. Anyone who knows me now, knows you can’t keep me away from recording videos! I absolutely adore it! Actually, I have such ease with it, that I recorded live every day for 365 days last year to a private Facebook group. It’s been the biggest factor in my success so far.

(Not so secret) secrets

of Sweetness Skulls and Light

WORDS KATHERINE McCALLUM

have a varied career history, but operating a successful small business on a budget is definitely one of the most challenging things I have done. And I cannot sit here and say, “I’ve done it!”, as just as much energy is required to keep the ship on course. The title ‘entrepreneur’ gets bandied around everywhere. If you believe all the hype, you may think every fifth person is a successful entrepreneur striking it rich with their new start-up company. You will also have heard the term ‘overnight success’. This phrase is misleading and more often than not, downright incorrect. Often, businesses hailed as ‘overnight successes’ have been in operation for extended periods, even years, before the spotlight. Successful business skills don’t come easily – almost all my successful business lessons have been learned the hard way. One way to truly learn something is to really get it wrong and then have to fix it. My learning has cost

me a small fortune and countless hours of my time. KNOW YOUR STUFF With increasing specialisation in all aspects of business, it is easy to take a back seat when considering certain aspects, especially if you are time-poor. If you are going to engage (and spend money) you need a solid understanding of the basics. For example, social media advertising can be a black hole of budget consumption with little to no benefit if you don’t have a basic working understanding of how ads on each platform work. This principle applies across the board, including bookkeeping, accounting guides, point of sale systems, inventory, marketing and promotion (print, digital, social), business presentation online and social media, and customer service and satisfaction. Before you delegate, make sure you understand exactly what is required!

BE FLEXIBLE AND OPEN TO CHANGE Quite simply, be prepared to change, as you will have no choice than to do so. Your business may be successful today but not tomorrow, due to circumstances beyond your control. The small business realm is competitive and continually evolving. Yes, this even applies to a super niche business such as a crystal skull dealer! As more people look towards self-employment to improve their quality of life, you need to keep ahead of the curve. And don’t have rigid preconceived ideas of what success looks like, as you could be selling yourself short. ENJOY THE RIDE! Failure is inevitable; it is what you do subsequently that makes the difference. This is a mantra I have adopted and I lovingly remind myself of it frequently, especially during failure. Love the process and enjoy the ride anyway. Like life, ‘success’ is not a destination.

Who you are

at home is who you are!

WORDS JULES O’NEILL

f you can relate to thoughts like, “I have done so much work on myself, and still, things are not changing or showing up in my business”, I encourage you to look at who you are at home, with yourself and others. In terms of energy and vibration, you might understand spiritual and conscious concepts such as ‘I’m the creator of my reality’ or ‘what you put out is what you get back’. You may also be focusing on ‘living in the question’ and ‘talking to the universe/your body’; working on being ‘unconditional’ in how you love yourself; practising not judging others; eliminating thoughts that contain the energy of doubt, limitation and sabotage; transforming your inner ‘stories’ so they serve you and your business goals; be committed to positive thinking that is intention-based; doing what it takes to feel happy; and striving for a ‘better’ life.

I may not have aligned exactly with what you are working on in yourself, but I’m sure you get my gist. The point I am making and desiring to share is, ‘who you are at home is who you are!’ ‘The universe does not reward you, it reflects you.’ It reflects your most dominant vibration – the one that hums out consistently from the unconscious. This is the vibration of who you are when you are in your home. Not what you ‘think’ you are, but how you consistently emotionally feel and show up with yourself and others. And how ‘present’ you are with that. If you desire life to flow for you as well as align with the dreams in your heart, organically and with ease, then I believe I have found a way to create this, so you feel and continually experience your reality effortlessly supporting you through the ups and downs – in your business and relationships, and with your money and happiness.

When I say the word ‘home’, I am referring to the following definition. Your home, and who you are in it, the inside and out, is a direct reflection of the relationship YOU have with your heart – the thoughts and feelings you have about your home, how it looks, the mortgage/rent as well as who lives with you. Can you relax and BE in it? Do you love being in it and do you love others being in it? Moreover, how you care for it, how you feel about cleaning it, how healthy you are in it, how present you are in it, and whether you can holiday in it. These are all the ‘stories’ determining the relationship you have with your heart. How you feel about these stories is the dominant vibration that goes out to the universe. This is the feeling that is reflected to you through your experiences. www.julesoneill.com

Entrepreneur? Me? WORDS KELLI BROOKER

o you have a 5-year plan? If someone had asked me this years ago I would have said “no”. If someone told me I would be an entrepreneur and have a successful business, I would have laughed! But I believe if you want something in this world you need to follow that dream and give it a shot, otherwise you do something for the rest of your life that doesn’t make your spirit soar. One evening, I was meditating with a crystal. I am not psychic, but I clearly heard a voice telling me to start healing people and be involved in a spiritual path selling crystals. People use crystals and feel their metaphysical benefits. Next, I told my family that I was starting an online crystal business and enrolling in a crystal healing course to gain knowledge and help others. With not much money in the bank, we take it out and give it a go. We register the business, satisfy all the

legal requirements and set off to buy a certain amount of crystals to start my venture. Weeks later, my excitement turned to disappointment as those sales just didn’t roll in! Despite stocking beautiful pieces and gaining a qualification in crystal healing, I just wasn’t making money. I went months making just $50 a week, if I was lucky. I thought about quitting but my supportive family encouraged me to keep going. The hours I worked for the meagre money was not worth it, but the universe had plans for me. Repeat customers started appearing. They loved my crystals and started asking healing advice. I finally started getting a modest wage, which I invested into more stock. Fast forward a few years (which were long, emotional and hard) and we are now successful. Wayne quit his day job to help me, as I couldn’t manage it alone. Fast forward

to today and we now have four in our team, each with distinct skills that contribute to the daily running of our business. Online is not for everyone. Be warned, if you’d like a day off or holidays, this is not for you! It’s not as easy as some think. It never stops and you simply can’t turn the shop off. On average, we work 16-hour days 7 days a week to keep up. We do take time out but it is for perhaps one day here or there or a long weekend, twice a year. E-commerce is a competitive field and it comes down to quality, professionalism and caring for your customers. We have built a trustworthy business from the ground up and hard work has paid off for MoonstoneGypsyAU. Blessed be, Kelli. www.moonstonegypsyau.com

ENTREPRENEUR’S TOOLKIT

I never thought the title WORDS SONYA DRIVER

‘entrepreneur’ applied to me

hat was, until I started reading about the characters, traits, habits and thought patterns of many entrepreneurs. Then I bought the t-shirt. Little things stood out to me. For example, I didn’t really like school, except for the social aspect. I found it hard to concentrate on things I wasn’t interested in, but would be super focused on and excel at things I like. I am driven, don’t enjoy holidays, find it hard to switch off, have a hundred ideas and mostly a mindset of ‘anything is achievable’. There is a saying: “An entrepreneur is someone who will spend five years of their life like most people wouldn’t, so

they can spend the rest of their life like most people can’t!” Personally, I think money as a motivation is a weak foundation. Here are some items in my toolkit: 1. Surround yourself with the right people. 2. Formulate a basic business plan that you understand. I love using a whiteboard on wheels to do this. Write down your vision and how to make it happen. 3. Market yourself. People want to connect to other people, even if they want to troll you! So, grow a thick skin. 4. Don’t be paralysed by the pursuit of perfection, just get it done, and you will get better at it.

5. Pace is the most important thing. 6. Get your domains. Don’t borrow too much money, as you’d be setting yourself up with added pressure and are on the back foot before you get started. 7. Do your research, don’t be a copycat. What’s your passion? What are you good at? How can you make that commercial? 8. Lastly, always do the right thing. It all comes back. You don’t need to be the best; however, you do need to be the one that’s consistent and doing the work. The effort determines the results. Happy hustling! www.ecotan.com.au

ENTREPRENEUR’S TOOLKIT

Be an

aware entrepreneur

WORDS TATIANA SAVERY

he path to successful business comes in as many varieties as those who walk them. The path I share with others is a similar message I share regarding creating peace within yourself, and in the external world. To put this into perspective is the underlying philosophy that our only true purpose here is to awaken, to become aware. With this philosophy a monk becomes no different to a barista; the educated scholar, sales person or wise guru are all on a level playing field. The only difference are those who know this, those who function and take action from the perspective of asking for a higher guidance, or in service to all, and those who function from fear and doubt. There have been thousands of interviews conducted with those considered successful. One common thread that runs through each of

these is that either they trusted their intuition (what I refer to as Spirit, or the Director), found something larger than themselves for guidance to believe, or are focused on service for the greater good. All these different forms lead to the peace within that sustains us and which then allows us to live a happier lifetime here. This could be expressed in a material or financial form, a healthy body and healthy communions with others or if that happy life becomes an extension through which we inspire and lift others. If it’s one or a million becomes insignificant – when we experience peace within, we have already awoken to realise the oneness all of us share. This is all that is required to awaken – one. Do not doubt how significant you are. We do not require thousands or millions of followers. Just as when we dream and there are many different people in our dreams: it only

takes us the dreamer, the one person, to wake up and the dream ends. This entrepreneurial toolbox contains the most potent of tools: Spirit. Begin with an alarm for each hour to remind yourself to ask for ‘inspired action’, then build up to an alarm every 30 minutes, after a few weeks set the alarm for every 15 minutes. Eventually the pathways will be reset within the mind to always be asking for ‘inspired action’. This means asking: what can I be, what can I do, what can I say to remain in peace. Inspired action means you are connecting to your ‘right mind’. This is the part of you that is Spirit connected to everyone else. What flows from these connections are miracles. Miracles should be every day, every moment; all of us are entitled to miracles.

How my wife was a

catalyst for my change

WORDS RICHARD AYOUB

n 2013, being the Director of Saka Water Australia, I decided to create an Alkaline World community; a portal for sharing and informing people about the amazing health benefits of living a healthy alkaline lifestyle. After several years of promoting Saka Water and educating people on living an alkaline lifestyle, I was blown away by the many benefits people were getting and humbled by the amount of positive testimonials I received on a daily basis. Now I am excited to share my knowledge and wisdom through Alkaline World, whose mission is to supply the best nature-made alkaline health products while sharing the alkaline message throughout the community. My team and I proudly research and offer award-winning premium health and wellness products, such as Saka natural alkaline water, Kuvings cold press juicers, hydrogen and alkaline water systems, Don and Tyler Tolman products, Natural Superfoods’

biggest range of Zeolite products, Prana On premium vegan proteins and superfoods range, and many other lifechanging products. When life hands you lemons… I have been actively involved in the wellness industry since the late 1980s; however, it wasn’t until the year 2000, when my wife started having serious kidney problems, to the point of failure, that my real knowledge began. With a young family of three boys who needed their mother more than anything, I wasn’t about to let them or my wife down and so, unbeknownst to me, my quest began. Weeks became months, and months turned into years. Not only did my wife’s health improve dramatically through natural remedies, but the fire in my belly was well and truly lit and I knew I needed to share the information I had gathered with as many people as I could. Knowledge becomes wisdom… I discovered the importance of ‘proper hydration’ and that water is key

to every living thing – human, animal, fish, bird, tree, plant and flower – which led to the beginning of Saka Water in Australia, the best natural alkaline water on the planet. I have been blessed to have helped thousands of people with their health challenges through Saka Water Australia and now, as the founding director of Alkaline World, I am excited to share my knowledge and wisdom through the Alkaline World community. Making lemonade… It’s funny when life is on the line and you get an opportunity to ‘get real’. For me, that blessing came through my beautiful wife, who was the catalyst for my understanding of how important an alkaline lifestyle is. An alkaline lifestyle is embracing all aspects of life: the water we drink, the food we eat and the life we live. I am passionate about helping you live an alkaline lifestyle and I look forward to being of service. www.alkalineworld.com.au

unique and different. Spectators always say what a wonderful experience it is to see living works of art come to life. This year you can expect to be transported from the distant past to the mysteries of the future,” said event manager, Danielle Taylor. This award-winning event is centred on competitions in temporary body painting in the categories of brush and sponge, airbrush, special effects and face painting. All types of artists participate from around Australia and they simply used their artistic flair to work on a very different canvas – the human body! For members of the public, it’s an event like nothing ever seen before, as human canvases take shape during the competitions and come to life on stage at the end of each day. It’s not just body painting competitions – it’s a totally arty weekend! There is a Wearable Art Competition with parades featuring funky fashions made from recycled treasures. New to the festival this year, is a Surfboard Art Competition with artworks being done throughout the day and the boards

auctioned in the afternoon. There are also sculptures, interactive community art, live music, street performers, a wonderful selection of market stalls, delectable food and lots of activities for the kids and for those who are just kids at heart. Plus, to finish each day, there is an amazing parade of the completed body painting.

How chronic stress and busy lifestyle

affect our health!

WORDS NATALIA WEAVER

he stress of life is a modern complaint today. We are constantly bombarded with new information, 24/7 culture and communication devices demanding constant attention, all of which can lead to chronic stress. Stress can be a shortterm reaction to a particular situation, or it can be a long-term response. Stress leads to increased coagulation in our blood which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Coagulation is a protective mechanism from excessive bleeding, should injury occur in fight-orflight situations. Stress response is there for a reason and it’s meant to be limited to scenarios when facing life-threatening situations. Unfortunately, a lot of people in our modern culture are staying in fight-or-flight mode permanently. It can become dangerous and damaging to our health and especially to our heart. Many coronary events occur in individuals with normal cholesterol levels and no evidence of risk of cardiovascular disease.

So how can we assess if we are at risk of developing cardiovascular disease and find out if our body is in a state of constant stress? Live Blood Analysis can give us an accurate picture of how stressed we are. Unlike other medical tests, Live Blood Analysis is the only test which allows us to see how blood cells interact in their living state inside our body. The live blood is observed under a microscope, allowing a patient to see their blood sample on the computer screen. The blood cells are still alive and give an accurate picture of a patient’s health on the cellular level. Increased coagulation of the blood during stress disrupts optimum homeostasis and quality of our blood. The blood becomes sticky, meaning red blood cells are stacked together instead of flowing separately. The blood cells can no longer function normally. This leads to oxygen starvation of cells and tissues. Also elimination of waste products from the cells is disrupted which leads to

a chemical and toxin overload in our body. Sticky blood contributes to a plaque build-up in our blood vessels, thus increasing the risk of having a heart attack. At Vibrant Health Clinic we recognise the need for early detection of chronic stress and the risk of development of cardiovascular disease. We recommend adaptogenic supplementation treatment protocol to help our patients to overcome chronic stress and gain health and vitality. Patients start feeling increased resistance to stress, more energy and can observe a significant change in their blood sample just one month after following the adaptogenic treatment protocol. As it’s increasingly difficult to avoid stress in our busy lives, it’s our responsibility to help our body to recover from chronic stress as quickly as possible. If you are feeling stressed, then start taking steps towards recovery and better health today! Visit: www.vibranthealthclinic.com.au

How

improving your gut health can help you lose weight

WORDS DR LIZ ISENRING

ut health is the core of all health. Having a healthy gut means having an ideal amount and diversity of good bacteria (probiotics). Having a healthy gut can prevent unwanted weight gain and even help with weight loss in several ways. One way is by the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Gut bacteria are involved in the production of several vitamins including vitamin K and some of the B vitamins, which are important for overall health and energy production. Gut health can also impact the breakdown and excretion of fats affecting how much energy is stored as fat by the body. Have you ever had intense food cravings or feel that you aren’t satisfied after eating a meal? Well a healthy gut is important for the production of different hormones which help in the regulation of appetite and help you feel full, hence helping prevent over-eating. Research has shown that people who are

overweight tend to have less diversity of the good bacteria in our large intestine. Improving this by diet and probiotics can help balance hormones and help with weight loss. Another way in which gut health can help with healthy weight loss is by the gut-brain axis. This describes the two-way communication between the gut and the brain. A healthy gut makes more serotonin which can help in improved mood and energy levels. By decreasing our stress hormones and improving our ‘happy’ hormones, this can help improve our energy levels and make it easier to stick to a healthy diet and regularly include enjoyable movement. Tips for a healthier gut include: • A diet containing plenty of plantbased foods that provide a food source for the gut bacteria. For example: vegetables, fruits, legumes like lentils and chickpeas and whole grain cereals. • Fermented foods like kefir, yogurt, kombucha and pickled vegetables.

CREATE YOUR FUTURE – LIVE YOUR DREAM

• Keep well hydrated and aim for 6-8 glasses of water a day (herbal teas count). • Reduce stress by deep breathing exercises, meditation or journaling. • Regularly include enjoyable movement like dancing, walking and swimming. • Smile, have fun and live life!! Clients report that my gut health programs improve symptoms, help improve mood and energy and helps them feel better ‘from the inside out!’ All my health programs are based on mindset, nutrition and movement for visible results.

NATURAL ANIMAL CARE

Caring for our animals naturally WORDS VANESSA FINNIGAN

hen you speak with Paul Hentschel, the creator of ‘Holistic Pet Products’, you get a refreshing down-toearth, genuine perspective on life. Paul is very much a grassroots, off-the-grid, sustainablelifestyle kinda guy, living off solar power, and growing as much fresh produce from his yard as he can. At the time of our first conversation, he didn’t even have an email address, mobile phone or website! He’s certainly a rare find in a techo age and he much prefers the ‘old school ways’ of face-to-face connection at his shop in Cooroy. This includes building relationships with the various suppliers of the holistic, natural animal products he sells in his shop, so he has an understanding of their accreditation and quality control processes. After being in the pet industry for 20 years, it’s clear Paul loves animals and he has a passion for researching and sourcing great products for cats and dogs (he also sells fish in his shop and native options for fish ponds for mosquito control). He often found in his travels, big

Small Business Profile:

companies would regularly source popular lines of animal food and products, but they were often not the most holistic or healthiest options. So what Paul has created with his small business is different! He has researched and road-tested every product on his own animals and if they don’t get the thumbs up, then he doesn’t stock them on his shelves. “I can’t sell a product I don’t believe in,” he said. Paul stands by the quality of his products, so much so, he offers a money back guarantee. His shop includes top-end food items,

as well as affordable natural and holistic food for cats and dogs and most of his products are Australian made. He sells chemical-free, preservative-free, easyto-use, as raw as possible, and sourced locally, as much as he can. And as we are aware, many animals are suffering with allergies and skin conditions these days, so why not chat with Paul about holistic alternative options that may create a better life for your beloved animal friend and get a new perspective on life at the same time!

NATURAL ANIMAL CARE

True holistic treatment for our animal friends WORDS DR RENEE O’DUHRING, BVSc (Hons) CVCHM (IVAS) GradDip VCHM (CIVT)

ne of the most common questions I get asked as an holistic vet is what exactly is it that I do. Does holistic mean no drugs at all? Some people even think we do surgical procedures without an anaesthetic! This is not correct. We are not entirely anti-drugs. Drugs can be lifesaving! If it weren’t for Western medicine I wouldn’t be here today. At the age of 21 when travelling in Canada, I contracted bacterial meningitis. The particular bacteria responsible carried a 55% mortality rate; I was the 1-in-2 that survived. And that was due to fast action by the emergency doctor, Western diagnostics, and life-saving intravenous antibiotics. I was very grateful for modern medicine at that point in my life as you can imagine. Western medicine shines in acute emergency scenarios. But I believe it has immense limitations when it comes to chronic disease, and can even be damaging. Sadly, chronic disease is what we mostly see in vet practice – the dogs that scratch themselves to bits after a single flea bite, the cats that pull their own hair out, pets that get vomiting

or diarrhoea or constipation on a weekly, or even daily, basis, chronic hormone imbalances, and nasty cancers at younger and younger ages. With holistic medicine, we can offer more solutions. We integrate the best of Western medicine, which can include diagnostics, or surgery, or necessary medications or vaccines, with complementary modalities such as acupuncture, diet changes and herbal treatments. We also take great care when prescribing any drugs, or selecting vaccines to administer. I have seen much evidence over my career of drug and vaccine reactions. Many are over-prescribed, both in human and veterinary practice. All that can be offered at times, is a lifetime of drug prescriptions that sadly are not always well tolerated. We advocate a minimal safe vaccine schedule, and only prescribe drugs when they are essential or when

safer herbs or other natural medicines won’t do the job required. I believe an holistic approach, where we look at the whole picture, the entire medical history, the behaviour of the animal, stress factors, lifestyle, diet, and the present symptoms, will move the pets we see in the direction of WELLNESS. That is what we are always striving for and that is true medicine. Email: dr.renee@thenaturalvets.com.au www.thenaturalvets.com.au

Giving yourself back to yourself

with Aura-Soma

WORDS JESSICA BOOTH

ura-Soma is a non-intrusive, selfselective system meaning that the products that you choose from within the range will be the best for YOU. During a unique and completely personal consultation with a registered Aura-Soma practitioner, you’ll select the four beautiful, jewel-like dual-coloured bottles that you feel the most drawn to, by this we mean the ones that you can’t resist, cannot look past, the ones that are almost dancing off the shelf with pure brilliance. Your practitioner will encourage you to trust your intuition, allowing you to be drawn to the colour combinations that will have the highest benefit for you. Together you will explore the meanings of your chosen colours within the context of your own journey and life, leading to a deeper level of selfunderstanding and compassion. By shaking the Equilibrium prior to applying it to the body, an individual and specific activation of the latent energies of the three kingdoms contained within the bottle, takes place. Each product

offers the support of the three kingdoms; the plant kingdom through the essential oils and herbal essences, the mineral kingdom of crystals and gems and the hue-man kingdom of colour and light. Feel the benefits of the alchemic ingredients of the Equilibrium bottle as you massage into the area that feels right for you. Aura-Soma calls this a process of self-care ‘giving yourself back to yourself’, a way to replenish your personal battery. For guidance about where to put each colour, think of the rainbow that is your chakras. Your rainbow has violet for the head, royal blue over the forehead, blue over the throat, green over the heart area, yellow over the solar plexus and gold over the naval area. The colours in the lower body, the coral, the orange and the red, are better applied around the lower abdomen and lower back. Red can also be applied to your legs, though, as it can be stimulating, it’s not recommended before bed! Aura-Soma founder and innovator

OUR SOUL, YOUR HEART. TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE YOU BETTER!

Vicky Wall would say, “no-one knows you better than you know yourself”. Remember these are only suggestions, if you feel that you would like to apply your Equilibrium somewhere else, then trust your inner knowing. If you do some exercise, yoga, tai chi, or meditation you might choose to include the Aura-Soma system as part of that daily practice. The AuraSoma system is to enable you to be the best YOU can be, so as long as you remember to trust yourself when deciding when to use them, the products will work their best for you. The ideal time to apply your Equilibrium would be after you have showered or bathed in the morning and again, before you go to bed in the evening. Both of these opportunities are to make a space for yourself, to do something for you. An opportunity to give yourself back to yourself. An opportunity for self-care and self-love. www.aura-soma.com

Stem cell nutrition –

a new paradigm in

health and wellness

WORDS MARITA MASON

hy do we age, and why do children heal so quickly? The answer is STEM CELLS… From birth to 30, we were almost unstoppable, with radiant skin and flexible bodies. After 30, a large percentage of our adult stem cells are no longer available. We then start accumulating aches, pains, loss of elasticity (wrinkles), grey hair, etc. After 50, the natural stem cell migration slows by 50%, and by the time we’re 65 there’s a 90% loss of circulating stem cells. That is why the signs of ageing increase so dramatically then. Science has just recently discovered that the only system known that actually

rebuilds the body is your own stem cells. We need vitamins, minerals, healthy food and exercise, but none of these can bring back new tissue, bone, organs, muscles etc. Ageing is characterised by a progressive loss of muscular strength and mobility that is a high-risk factor for falls and a decreased quality of life. Stem cells can become bone, muscle and cartilage which counteracts normal loss of strength as we age. Some years ago, scientists discovered that an aqua botanical from Lake Klamath/Oregon, known as AFA had the ability to release our own stem cells. These stem cells can become new

brain, kidney, skin, heart, pancreas, thyroid or eye cells, etc – whatever the body needs to repair and regenerate. A clinically proven and patented product containing AFA is now available in Australia – it is the only product in history that triggers the release of our own stem cells. Stem cell nutrition is the beginning of a new paradigm in wellness and is unprecedented in its ability to maximise health. It allows the body to maintain superior function, helps build the immune system, prevents the normal ageing process and systematically fights chronic conditions. Email: marita@maritamason.com
