Many years ago, an amazing cat came into my life. From the moment I met him, he took a place in my heart. I was actually at this lady’s home checking out another of her cats, which was for sale. But that cat didn’t show any connection to me. I’d previously had a beloved black cat when I lived in Indonesia, so I asked her, “Do you have any black cats?” It turned out she did. No one had wanted this particular cat, so she’d raised him herself, and he’d become her adoring companion. He was an adolescent by this stage, and one of the most centred and chilled cats I’ve ever had the privilege of meeting. “Cairo” came home with...
Natural beauty is a truly radiant beauty It supersedes any form of physical beautify, because it starts from within, and emanates from us like a ray of sunshine. And there are so many things that create natural beauty. It’s not related to our weight. I’m sure you’ve experienced the beauty of someone with a voluptuous body shape who is so at ease in their own skin, that they love themselves and love their body…and we can feel that! It’s not related to our physical beauty or age. We see images of faces wrinkled in the sunshine, with the biggest smiles we’ve ever seen. These smiles are so contagious, we can’t help but smile back. And it’s not related to our wealth...
You know those days? The ones where there is a whirlwind happening around you, and all you can hope to do is to remain as grounded as possible amidst all the chaos? I had one of those days on Monday. I have just sold a beautiful beachside unit that I’ve owned for almost half of my life, and I made the trip to Caloundra to pack up my handful of personal belongings that were still left there. It was a journey down memory lane, revisiting a time long-gone when that was my forever home. It was important for me to grab a moment of peace amidst the storm. I sat on the verandah, soaking in the ocean view, knowing...
Ready to release those things that no longer serve you in your journey, and embrace new adventures? Intuitively pick a number between 1 and 9, and see which affirmation is choosing you today: 1. There is a Miracle waiting for me in this moment. Let me be still, open my mind, and receive it. 2. Thank you for the lessons of the past. They have taught me resilience and strength, and helped to forge the amazing Woman/Man that I am today. 3. In this quiet moment, I ask that all things which are no longer serving me be released, with ease and grace. Thank you. 4. I am worthy of love and true abundance in all things, and invite this into my...
A few days ago, I went for a walk at dusk. As I was returning home, I heard a rustling in the grass next to where I was walking. It was an echidna nosing into the grass, in search of some ants for dinner. Whilst I do occasionally see echidnas, to be this close to one is incredibly rare. As I crouched with one knee on the bitumen to take a photo, the echidna stopped its foraging and came straight up to me, and nuzzled my knee. Of all the places and directions it could have taken, it chose me, and made a beeline for me. That was not something random, or coincidental. It came up to me because it...
