appearance vs. reality

I think it is important when looking at things around us that there is a surface and there is a deeper than the surface. Often things are created for us to only look at the surface and we are not aware of the layers behind it. The media for example is painting a picture and create feelings so that we will feel a certain way. For example showing us lifestyles that most of us will never experience but making it so we want it! and we are therefore never satisfied or happy with what we have.

What I have learnt in 2010 so far

I feel like that when people say the destination is not the key, its the journey, that this is really important when living. Because if you are always living for the destination, how will you ever enjoy the journey.

I realise how important it is to have a base, security and a safe place to be. If you have your basics covered, you can be free to grow and fear is easier to overcome.

Positivity is key. Worries are always coming. Obstacles and the unexpected. If you remain in a positive frame of mind it really helps. Worrying doesn't do anything. It usually hinders you. So identify what is needed and try your best to create what is needed.

I realise I do not always know what is best. I also realise that it is better to let people discover there own way, hold their hand rather than try and convince them of another way.

I realise we are allowed to be excited by life. Even if it doesnt work out the way we hoped. Excitement is all part of it!

I realised this month that we must always always be independent. Independent in a way that we can look after ourselves because you can never tell what is around the corner.

I learnt that the people who are your rocks in this life are so crucial and special. Everyday I want to appreciate and love them more.

To never take anything for granted. The more appreciation you feel, the better you feel on the inside and the more you really love people, things, everything you have around you.

I believe that life can be fun. Whatever you choose to do and whatever you are doing, to make the most out of it!

BODY TALK - an amazing healing paradigm

There are many things I could say about my experiences with bodytalk and how amazing it is…However, then this could turn into an essay! So I’ll stick to what has been most important for me. What I have realised through my body talk experience, is that it actually can change the subconscious. And it is the subconcious that can keep us stuck, where one can feel powerless to change the old patterns and the things we most dislike about ourselves. Bodytalk can dispel old belief systems that you may or may not be aware of, that hold you back from your true poteintial and self. I do not believe that bodytalk does all the work for you. I believe because it changes/heals the stubborn subconcious, it enables you to then to truly be able to change in your consciousness, in everyday life. It aids, supports and truly helps you to shift, lifts filters, and connect. For me this has been monumental, and I cannot express it in words how thankful I am for bodytalk. I had been, for a lot of my life desperate for something to help me. I really didn’t know how it was ever going to happen and sometimes I lived in a dark black hole. Bodytalk helped make everything more possible, and was one of the influences that made me realise that everything is indeed possible.

I have been having bodytalk sessions for 2 years now and have had 3 different practioners, all of which have been amazing. I have recently been having sessions with Laura and I feel very lucky to have her as my practioner. I am always impressed by her true understanding, intuition and insight. I think what stands out most is, that she geniunely is full of love to give.

I cannot say enough how much I value Bodytalk and how much it has helped me in my life. It was the beginning of much sought after, needed change and growth in my life. And it continues to be… It is truly a miracle and I believe as a paradigm, it can only expand, and be an amazing connective support for the world. I hope that many people will discover Body talk and it can help to heal them, in whatever way it is needed in their lives.

I wrote these ideas one night. The ideas are ideas, not set in stone, can be transformed and changed

Don’t let any one determine your worth.

Only you can determine your worth.

It makes me angry when I judge.

Dont let anyones worth of you reign truer than your own.

You know you best.

You are goodness in itself.

You are the wonder of the world.

Truth does set you free.

Truth is awareness.

I know that my worth is not always reflected. So I must find what reflects my worth.

As one human on this earth I am limited to one place at a time. It is my light that is all expansive, that can travel everywhere.

We want to be important. We want to be recognised. We want to be loved.

I want to have love for everyone.

Freedom is knowing that you are free.

People may push us, hurt us, destroy our lives but they can never destroy our soul.

The fear of death can stop you from living.

I'm going to bring light to my darkest thoughts because there I find freedom

A lot of what we think is not even what we believe. Be careful with what you believe.

A lot of what exists is from the past.

Work out what is yours, and what is someone else’s. Sometimes the energy we feel or the thoughts we have are not even ours.

The ability to discern the truth is vital.

Fear of evil is ok.

Find armour that fits you well. We all need protection.

Your heart is the best armour you can find.

No one can destroy you, ever.

The snake is maybe only a symbol to show you life in all its forms, all the ways in which you can choose to live life. It is a reminder of free will. You can always choose.

Only you are responsible for your free will. Anyone who takes away another’s free will is abusing their power

We are an accumulation of all that we have lived. All our experiences live inside us, all the good and the bad. It is how we choose to use these experiences that count.

There is only one you.

ideas

I have a vision that we could all rise up in the united belief that everyone deserves the best, that everyone deserves to fufill their true potential. I believe we can make this possible by focusing on ourselves as individuals first. I would hope that in finding what we truly want we would indeed want the best for ourselves and others. By doing this we empower ourselves. We put oursevles in a position where we are actually able to give and receive. It is the difference between feeling empowered rather than powerless.
I think we can underestimate the difference we can make as individuals. Our impact is not always fully visible to us but because in essence we are all connected, our actions always impact the greater whole. Therefore by helping ourselves we do help others; by helping others we do help ourselves. I think it is important to realize that everyone does need help. We can never take responsibility for peoples' lives but we can be the helpers that give each other the gifts that we are able to give. By allowing ourselves to fulfill our ultimate potential, we can help others do the same. It helps to realize that we are in this together.
It is my dream that people would be able to awaken to the amazing power within them and choose to use this in a transformational way. I believe that global change starts on a small scale where every person has the poteintial to make a difference. By taking responsibility for our own lives we are more aware of the consequences of our actions and choices. We can then fully understand about our individual and united power.

I feel like a blog can be a great thing
