“Don’t call me lover Stop thinking ’bout it, thinking ’bout it I’m not the others We could keep it simple as La di da di da We could keep it simple as Don’t call me lover Stop thinking ’bout it, thinking ’bout it” – Melody Gardot and Sting As within so without: celebrating spring byContinue reading “Blog 45 Spring”

Blog 44 At the river
Today at the river, the water gushed over polished rocks, smoothing the surfaces until they shone like jewels under the spring blue sky. And high above, three seagulls, calling in forlorn voices, flapped across – clearly far from home. A little trip, would you say? To explore what lies beyond the realms of water underContinue reading “Blog 44 At the river”
Blog 43 Full Moon
Gentle hands of the unseen wind pushes the veils of thready milky clouds to reveal a moon – so sensuous, so full, so white and luminous. A lone queen, resting, self-assured in the generous and expansive arms of the night sky. And below, the tree-tops sway, a dance of silhouette – dark, and yet, notContinue reading “Blog 43 Full Moon”
Entry 42 Seed sowing
Seed sowing. Waiting. Believing. Trusting. In the midst of winter, when nature lies asleep there is still a deep sense of wonder, of what is happening below the surface, imperceptibly and yet ever present. It is the feeling you get when you are completely silent, not just without but within. And you know that somewhereContinue reading “Entry 42 Seed sowing”
Entry 41 End of 2020 Prayer
Trust – and it will set you free. Don’t wait in anticipation for the white light to appear. Keep on moving, your feet know where you are headed. Follow your heartbeat, let its drum roll keep rhythm. And pray. Either way, you are carried and held by divine infinite love. I haveContinue reading “Entry 41 End of 2020 Prayer”
Entry 40 New Beginnings
I began clearing up the flower beds and winter is the most suitable time to do that. Here in the Mediterranean, under a more or less bright sun, this task does not seem like a task at all. I dug up the beds, cleared the weeds and checked the soil. This is such an importantContinue reading “Entry 40 New Beginnings”
Entry 39 Questions
I was watching interviews with Michael Beckwith recently and in one of them he said, “Things just don’t happen, things happen just.” What a profound statement to make and it really inspired me to take a step back and examine the current situation I find myself in. For me, this is a personal change andContinue reading “Entry 39 Questions”
Entry 38 Gratitude
We are going through a huge shift globally. Be it in the workplace, at home, within ourselves. If we could put the tools that are always available to us through our reflections, our thoughts, our practices of prayer and yoga which ones would we choose? Gratitude, for one. That is the highest vibration attitudeContinue reading “Entry 38 Gratitude”
Entry 38 Iris
Early mist covered the river that morning as I walked along its bank. And there it was, the delicate head of a pink iris. As I stooped to touch her ever so slightly, she nodded her head in all her loveliness. Shy and fragile. Graceful and gentle. Time stopped and I felt blessed to haveContinue reading “Entry 38 Iris”
Entry 37 Certainty
Uncertain times, anxious world, one belief. I stand as the rock in the sea, against the sky. Unmoving, solid, firm. Everything passes, nothing is forever. To resist change Is to block life’s flow. Each day that dawns, brings new possibilities. Of love. Of life. Of friendship. Speak of your feelings, share your life, embrace theContinue reading “Entry 37 Certainty”
