Steps to Self Love This may seem a strange topic in a world full of self entitlement but often those who need more are those who have a bigger hole to fill. Our notion of self love is full of misconceptions a woman taking care of self may be called vain or worst yet selfish and a man egotistical. But where is the line between healthy self love and self indulgence and more importantly should one be drawn?
1. Not everyone is going to like you…..get over it 2. Stuff is going to happen….deal with it 3. Faith is not what you hold onto but what you are prepared to let go off 4. Ignorance is thinking you know, arrogance is believing you know and enlightenment is admitting you don’t know 5. Man who buries head in sand will eventually get butt kicked 6. What you see on the surface rarely is what lies unde eath 7. Parents eventually hand the decision making over to you after that all blame for poor life choices lies with the managementr
Most of us are walking asleep. We are barely able to keep up with what is in front of us let alone have an awareness of what is happening to us or around us. But have it is that awareness we have to cultivate if we are to become everyday guru’s. We have start waking up.r
I wish I was Wayne Dyer all Zen about letting children find their own way. Then maybe I would be able to resist sending my neighbours children to bootcamp while they were not looking. I wish I was Oprah able to talk about my bowel moments without fear of being asked for my senior’s card. I wish I was Dr Phil okay I really don’t wish that! I wish I was Suze Orman a money Goddess then maybe the Credit card company would be more inclined to take my calls and less inclined to act like money pimps.
So you want to be a psychic, you have watched every episode of the Medium and are sure you can do what she does because really how hard can it be? And its true for some of you the gift of insight will flow effortlessly, words will spill like a fountain of knowledge from your mouth. But do you really ‘know’ what being a psychic really entails or are you happy to be a sideshow at a fair throwing out one line predictions.
"To touch the stars I must feel the Earth beneath my feet"r
In the perfect family what you see on the surface rarely reflects what lurks unde eath. There is usually a pink elephant sitting in the living room everyone sees but steps around as if oblivious to it’s presence. Cut and paste smiles come forth for outsiders and the children grow up to be mini me projections of the illusions and lies. Skeletons are hidden in closets never to be revealed, the theory being if I can’t see it or I don’t acknowledge it existed it won’t hurt me. Perfect families also have rules 1. Masks must be worn at all times no one is allowed to see the ‘real’ your
Mirror of self reflectio Age creeps up on us all slowly stripping away our youth then one day we look into the mirror and the body does not seem to match the sparkle in the eyes anymore. Then we begin to look over our shoulder at our past and think I wonder what would have happened or what if I had taken this path? The concept of there only being one life and a limited amount of time to live it is to most people like someone saying there is no Santa Claus. We simply want to believe in forever just like we wanted to believe in happily ever after as children.r
So many people struggle with life challenges because they do not know how to be their own best friend. We are all good at being there for others with encouraging words of support and love but rarely are we capable of extending these things to ourselves. In fact we are often our own worst enemy, with a self critic and a massive data base in our heads of all the things we have been told we can’t do or won’t be able to do or should never attempt.
I know God will not give me anything I cannot handle I just wish he didn’t trust me so much ~ Mother Teresa ~ Life has become a fast food meal to be scoffed down and digested on the run. We dont have the luxury of sitting down and enjoying the banquet of beauty Mother Earth lays before us. There is always something else to do and somewhere else to be. We are constantly on the run from life chasing time holding onto youth putting off old age. And yet with all this movement forward we are no closer to where we want to be.
I wish everyone would write down their top life tips then we could pass it on for every generation to add to. I am no guru but like everyone else there are certain things I have discovered about myself and this world we live in. Here is my top 30 list. 1. Mother’s aren’t always right 2. But parents can only pass on what they were given 3. Its okay to want more 4. Stuff happens that’s life 5. Sometimes we are never going to why so we have to let go 6. I am never going to be like everyone else so I have to be myself 7. Gossip is the acid rain of relationshipsr

We are all every day Guru’s because every day we ALL learn a little bit more about ourselves and the world we live in. There are no experts and I would challenge anyone to stand up and say they “know it all”. What we know is what is contained in our world and at any moment our reality could be challenged and our world view could change. Remember every one in the world at one stage thought the world was flat!r
Someone wrote to me asking ‘how do you stay strong, hold onto faith and hear your inner voice when life presents you with challenges?’ It is a question many people struggle with myself included, when ’stuff’ happens it is difficult to hang onto the belief this too shall pass and everything will be okay. I wish I could say I possessed a magic wand which would make all the bad things better or disappear but I don’t, all I can offer is a few humble words that may help you through the process.

Stuff happens it happens to all people immunity is not granted because of a course you have done or a book you have written or read or the thoughts you possess. Stuff happens. It happens to the Pope it happens to the garbage man it happens to the couple down the road who have everything. Stuff happens you may not get to hear about you may not see it and it may not be reported in the media. But Stuff happens.r
The other day someone said to me "there will come a time when us ‘special’ people the light workers of the world will be called on to show others the way." I sat and stared completely caught off guard as far as I could tell I didn't possess any magical powers the rest of the human race had missed out on. Okay so I am a Psychic but this gift is no different than the gift to create a painter has, no different to the gift of healing a Doctor has, no different to the gift of love a Mother has for her child or the gift of reaching a young person a teacher has.
Scientist’s recreated the big bang in an attempt to find the God particle haven’t heard how that went but give I wasn’t sucked into any black holes I would assume all is okay. I am sure Creator is upstairs thinking he/she has tuned into the Universe’s version of extreme makeover. Lets tear her down and rebuild! The promo would go something like this “We had letters from all over the galaxy including this one from Earth.”
Moving house is a stressful business but that aside it also brings with it important life lessons. We are forced to look through the things of past and ask “Do I really need this?”. We have garage sales getting rid of clutter we question what to bring into our new home and what to leave behind. There will be things we have outgrown, things held onto purely for sentimental purposes and those items we never really wanted in the first place. Personally I think everyone should move house every ten years if only to shift them from their comfort couch of familiarity.r

Put your hand over your heart feel it beat feel it pulsate life throughout your body and know with absolute certainty there was a reaso Higher Power placed you on this Earth. There are so many women feeling isolated cut off struggling without support without hope for a brighter future without the skills and knowledge to step forward into a new life. They don’t know it but they have spirit within them Woman’s spirit a legacy of women gone before them blazing trails of courage and determination. There are a number of reasons women lose their spirit: • Loss of self esteemr
Most people can survive natural disasters medical conditions life events but for some of us we would rather cling to the Titanic and go down than spend Sunday lunch having our buttons pushed by our Mother. We would rather run with the bulls than confront our siblings over behaviors that annoy us. We would rather be in the eye of a hurricane than at the family dinner table trying not to look at the pink elephant sitting in the living room.
I could stand on my pedastal and state I never have thoughts of envy, greed or jealousy but I would be lying. So sue me if my humanity is showing! I am comfortable with who I am my words and actions align with my intent of compassion and loving kindness most of the time occasionally my inner child jumps up to be noticed but to the most part I do okay. I do not find it necessary to beat myself up when I get the odd twinge of envy or jealousy do not think I am any less of a spiritual person.
It seems cliché to say the most important question you will ever ask yourself is “Who am I ?” It is the question that has led to a thousand self help books yet do we ever have the courage to sit naked in the truth of our identity?

In life we are always taught to aim for perfection but what is perfection but another’s perception of how they would like things to be in the world. We allow others to be the judge when it comes to our lives reaching for the impossible goal that will give us the recognition we crave from our peers the acknowledgement of our worth in this world. Like the man said the difference between a weed and a flower is a judgment. So if we chase after another’s perception of perfection are we not merely chasing an illusion?r
There is a misconception small deeds are not as magnificant as those part the water ones. Find a cure and you are nominated for a noble prize find a dollar and give it to a homeless person to buy a meal and the moment will pass unnoticed. Understand right now your every word,thought and deed will change a life of someone somewhere. What can I do? You can do the small things with great love as Mother Teresa taught us and they will make all the difference.

My profession is one where stereotypes abound and lately I have found myself defending what I do in all sorts of forums. So I am about to shatter the myths I am taking a risk I know because some people are not going to want to get a reading from someone who is not going to throw one line predictions at them. However I feel I have to take a stand for all those Psychics out there like me who have so much faith in ‘you’ we do not give the future but help you create your own.
Step one: Acceptance of present circumstances and reality You cannot change what you do not acknowledge the pink elephant in the living room that everyone seems to want to ignore is going to squish you sooner or later. Standing in your truth is not about judgment or shame or guilt it is about ...Step one: Acceptance of present circumstances and reality
I am waiting for a new show to appear titled Are you smarter than a Buddha? Or Are you smarter than an enlightened Master? There seems to be an enormous amount of debate going on at the moment in regards to what makes someone Spiritual or Enlightened. I can imagine turning the page of a glossy magazine and finding a quiz one dayr How to tell if you are Enlightened 1. You are faced with a body of water such as an ocean do you a) Jump in and drown b) Hire a boat or c) Walk on waterr
