The dance of life


I am the sum of lives gone by
I am the wind that flies so high
I am the breaking wave that sighs
Each glowing ember in the sky
The sand that flows in endless time
Of stones that stand with gazing eyes
Standing memories of their guise
The heart within begins to rise
The drum a steady flow
Until I hear the beating tone
Echoes of the journey home
Reaching up the hands that call
The seed of life within us all
The gift of life begins to grow
As fingers reach to sunlight’s glow
The branching tree its arms embrace
The seasons swift and changing face
Brings gift of wisdoms grace
Leaving winters sleeping fold
I turn to summers warming hold
Entranced in daylights glowing charms
I sleep in summers golden arms
And I that am the firefly
Dance in the night into the sky
Into the light of heavens eye
The endless dance of life.

Sunday walk at Lewesdon Hill

Sunday I went for a special walk in one of Dorset's best kept secrets,  Lewesdon Hill.
Time stands still in this sacred place & each time I come back it always has a different feel & look to it.
Sacred spaces to meditate too are many, but a lone yew tree among the bracken was my choice & my only companions were the deer resting in the bracken.

My trip to Combe Martin North Devon


I thought that I would share with you the beauty of North Devon as I have just recently visited a dear friend there. The rawness of Devon's coastline from jagged rocks to tree lined cliffs was the view from my bedroom window, one I will miss not waking too each morning.
I came back home with an inner calmness which I shall endeavour to keep safe within me.

Meditation - How to tune in with the energies that surround your being

First it is important to find where you feel most relaxed either indoors or in nature but let it be a safe haven where you can be undisturbed and at peace with yourself, then when sitting allow your whole body to relax starting from your head to your toes. Allow the peaceful energies that surround you to tune out the drifting thoughts in your head which will allow you to meditate on a deeper level.

Then starting with your crown chakra, slowly open as if it was a flower opening for the first time, then repeat with your second chakra, throat and heart chakra.

Once your higher chakras are open I would like you to imagine that you are in a special place put aside just for you and your healing guides. All is peace and standing in the centre will be yourself and the healing guides.You will begin to be aware that a vibrational energy is being emitted by your guides as if your body is a tuning fork allow yourself to be one with these energies it is a symbiotic process.If it helps you to visualise imagine that your body is a radio that isn't tuned in to the correct station so we have to adjust the knob to find the station you need in other words tune in and so it is with our soul bodies.We need to tune ourselves into the right frequency from a soul level. That is why your guides are there to help, you need to work as one with them.

Once you have achieved this and you will know intuitively you may thank your guides for their help and guidance. Slowly bring yourself out of your meditative state and close down your chakras, by slowly folding in the flower petals into a bud of each chakra. Do not worry if you have problems tuning in the first time next time you will be successful have faith in yourself and in your guides.There is no time limit on how long your meditation should last it is different for each of us just go with the flow towards harmony and inner peace.

Out with the old and in with the new









Many articles have been written over the years about cleansing our work & home enviroment.These vary widely, from crystals, to singing bowls, incense, etc..etc.
Though I find all of the above to be effective in one way or another I have to say that a good old de-clutter & house work, works every time. This allows energy to flow through your work and home, & lets the build-up
of negative energy flow out. Friends & colleagues have often remarked how welcoming my home & workplace feels, give it a go.
