If you love exploring natural therapies, you will know how powerful vibrational essences are. Whether we’re talking homeopathics, Bach Flower Essences, Australian Bush Flower Essences, Shell Essences or Aurasoma, the vibration of these substances works like a guiding light to our inner vibration, calling our Soul into spiritual and vibrational alignment. Like putting pieces of a jigsaw puzzle together, when we are in vibrational alignment, many other aspects of our life fall into place. Because most vibrational essences contain only minute traces of the actual physical substance, they are non-toxic and have no direct impact on the body’s biochemistry. But what about essential oils? Are they also a vibrational essence? The short answer is “Yes” - they are a...
The place of presence and stillness that we discover in our Earth Meditations has a wonderful ripple effect into our life. I’ve noticed that the deeper I sink into connection with myself, the more communion I experience with Earth’s many creatures, great and small. Even the spiders of the house sense that I’m no threat, and respond to my gentle encouragement to jump into a small container so I can carry them outside. I catch flies in the same way, delivering them to their outdoor playground. This happens on a daily basis, and each time I’m using my consciousness to communicate with these animals. Yet every now and then, I’ll have an interaction that stands out above all the rest,...
Last week I spoke about the Earth Meditations I do of an evening. One of the most beautiful ripple effects from these has been my ever deepening connection with animals. One night in 2018, I went out for my evening Earth Meditation. It was a clear sky, beautiful stars twinkling down, and I settled on my meditation blanket and dropped into a very deep meditation. One of the things I notice about these Earth Meditations is the stillness that comes over me. Even though in human time I spend only 10 to 30 minutes on the land, the stillness makes it feel like much more time has passed. This particular night, I sank very quickly into stillness. I was sitting,...
Finding your perfect spot for meditation In 2018 I started meditating outdoors, mostly of an evening. I use a headlamp to give me light while I find the perfect “spot” on the land that’s calling me, as it’s not always the same place. I set up a blanket and cushions, then I settle down for 10 to 30 minutes of free falling. I don’t attempt to meditate. I simply close my eyes, and allow myself to go wherever I need to. Sometimes I sink down into the earth; sometimes I lift out of my body and up into the air; sometimes spiritual beings come to talk to me; and other times, I simply sit and breathe in the night air,...
Unveiling an Ancient Symbol There is a symbol in our world that is so profound, it’s often overlooked. Isn’t that the way with Ancient Wisdom? It’s buried right in front of our eyes, just waiting for us to see it. Tens of thousands of people notice it, and walk right past. They observe only an object, and nothing deeper. But then one person comes along with eyes that are open. And that person pauses, and looks more carefully, and sees in front of them something that no one else noticed. Often, the most profound things are hidden in broad daylight, carefully disguised behind a veil of normalcy. “When the student is ready, the teacher appears” says an ancient Hermetic Axiom....
