Magpie Medicine

I love to begin each day with a simple anointing process using essential oils. Yesterday, I was part-way through my sacred anointing ritual. I’d just reached the step where I apply Gratitude oil blend to my heart, and acknowledge something I’m grateful for.  My eyes swept around the room and into the distance, and landed on a beautiful tall Norfolk Pine tree that sits a few hundred metres from my home.   There, sitting at the very pinnacle of the tree, was a Magpie. She was comfortably perched, surveying the world around her.   As I watched, a smaller bird flew onto a nearby branch. It was probably a Noisy Minor or similar. This bird sat for a few moments, then flew...

Affirmations to Awaken your Day

Ready to awaken your mind and your Soul? Intuitively pick a number between 1 and 9, and see which affirmation is choosing you today (see below):  1. This instant will change my life.

Frankincense & the Journey Beyond the Body

In our last dive into Oil Love, we looked at how Frankincense oil works like an elixir to open us up to the ecstatic sexual life-force energy that exists within, and how it can be incorporated into our tantric and self-love practices. Then in last week’s blog, A Cry in the Dark I shared a powerful and emotional story of love and letting go. Today, I want to continue with a topic that takes us far beyond the body and address how essential oils can be used in both Palliative care and “crossing over”. What I share may or may not fit your belief system, so please just “take what you want, and leave the rest”. Why is the use...

A Cry In The Dark

  What is your relationship with challenge? When our glass is full and overflowing, it’s easy to have gratitude for life and everything around us. But what about when life’s lessons are delivered in a bitter-sweet pill? Have you ever felt like you’ve been tumbled through the washing machine, hung out to dry, and just when you start to feel like you’re whole again, you ended up splattered over the windscreen of a mac truck? If you can relate, just know that it happens to the best of us. It’s in our times of greatest darkness that we have the opportunity to unlock our most powerful lessons. In 1996 I attended a profound self-mastery course with Scott Washington. In that...

The Mermaid’s Tale

Do you ever feel like a fish out of water? Do you ever have that sense of being totally displaced – as if someone plucked you from your real home and plonked you into this body and this life…and didn’t give you a road map? You go through the motions of life, living, loving and laughing to the best of your ability, earning a living, gathering your loved ones close to you, and finding your way North by trial and error and sheer determination. Yet somewhere deep, deep inside of you, you feel like an orphan - lost and homeless. You know there must be a better way and a better place than this. There’s this deep and nagging sense...
