If only…

Having a balance between work and play is really important.

If a good work-life balance is not met in your job, it’s likely that you will start to build negative feelings towards work or your employer, and it could also take its toll on your health. In order to be happy at work and maintain the drive to work to the best of your ability, it’s important for you to be able to balance work and your personal life so that you are not deprived of doing things you enjoy outside of work and are living a healthy lifestyle.

It Must be Karma

Have you ever met someone who has blamed Karma as an excuse for having so many challenges in life? “I’m not getting better because it’s Karmic” or “I can never be happy because it’s Karma” – “I must have been a bad person in a previous life as everything seems to go wrong – it must be Karma!”

Well maybe – or do some people use it as an excuse?

What Does Acting with Integrity Look Like?

Integrity is a word that we hear almost every day but we seldom take the time to think about it. Integrity is similar to ethics, honesty, and trustworthiness—they are a moral code of values that affect our behavior. Integrity is about doing the right thing in every situation, whether it’s convenient or not. But what does a person acting with integrity look like?

Judgmentalism

Making judgments comes from a balanced and neutral mind. On the other hand, judgmentalism comes from an imbalanced and reactive mind that is seeking to protect itself from being hurt by others.

As a healer, clients do confide in you and you do hear some pretty horrific tales.

So, we need to put ourselves in our clients shoes and see the world from their perspective and be nonjudgmental, accepting them exactly the way they are.

Being Discerning

On our healing workshops we often talk about the importance hanging out with people who make us feel good.

People who are always whining and complaining affect out energy field and very soon we can find we are doing the same – lowering our vibration to their level.

So – are we being judgmental – or just discerning?

“Molecules of Emotion”

The founder of the Silva Method, Jose Silva, believed that 90% of illness comes from the mind itself. Therefore, most illnesses can be reversed by the mind. Our beliefs about healing are crucial to all aspects of wellness. Our entire molecular system is mediated by hormones – the “molecules of emotion” – triggered by our thoughts and beliefs.

Thoughts are Living Things

We know that thoughts are living things so if we think we not going to get better - the chances are we won’t. This happens when we are told by the medical profession, we only have x weeks or months to live – it’s like the kiss of death - and only the very strong or people who very determined to prove they are wrong – can get back to full health.

Purpose

It feels good to have a sense of purpose, knowing that you are using your skills to help others in a way that matters to you.

But how do you go about finding your purpose if it’s not obvious to you? Is it something you develop naturally over the course of a lifetime? Or are there steps you can take to encourage more purpose in your life?

Negative News

Have you noticed how much of the news we see and hear is negative news?

Have you thought about what that does to us - always hearing what is wrong with the world, how people are suffering everywhere, how there is a shortage of this or that, how the world is a dangerous place, and so on?

Well, it sure doesn’t cheer you up!

They say that good news doesn’t sell newspapers, but I wonder if that’s true.

Holiday Season Gatherings

All types of “gatherings” can bring up past memories where maybe things were said and done which in hindsight we could have been handled differently. If we have been at the receiving end of harsh words or arguments that have got out of hand and we then come into contact again with the perpetrator of that event, how do we handle it?

Reflection on this Past Year

I am not a great believer in spending too much time examining the past – after all it has past! – neither too much time worrying about the future – its not happened yet! – so I try to live in the present.

However, none of our lives are the same as they were 2 years ago. We have had opportunities to look inwards and for many of us our priorities have changed. What we once perceived as important may not be so important now.
