In the last several days, I´ve had several near misses in my car.

Twice, I´ve rounded a bend to find there´s a large vehicle heading towards me fast, on my side of the road. Both times I´d had to slam on my brakes,  hoping there was no-one behind me, and pull in as hard as I could without heading down the ditch. And both times, the other vehicle just pulled in, in time.

A couple of day´s ago, I had right of way, when a car just shot across the
road in front of me.

And yesterday, same thing, guy just didn´t stop where he should have.
We both slammed on breaks and just missed each other´s front wing.

Should I just stayoff the road for a while or am I missing something?

Tetlow, Roots and Jambo. Tetlow being an English Bull Terrier and mother of Roots. She’s ever so slightly nuts and runs around in circles chasing her tail in excitement at the slightest sound or movement I make.

Roots looks almost identical to his mum, with the exception of the obvious bits, and size, and the fact that he’s constantly trying to mount her. He’s a soppy donut, can’t get enough loving, which on the not so good side, he gets a little jealous of the competition from Jambo, a 2 year old Rhoesian Ridgeback.

Jambo reminds me of a huge scooby doo, with his big ploddy feet and character-full face. He likes winding up the other two and terrorizing cats.

Three very formidable animals with charm and character, and very strong jaws!

The first day, accompanies by the gorgeous Willow, we had no problems, just lots of excitement and jumping up. We had a lovely couple of hours getting to know each other with a little caution and plenty of excitment. We where all quite happy to be in each others company til it was time to say ‘Hasta manana guys’ and leave.

The next day a little calmer and we spent another lovely couple of hours sunbathing, chatting and throwing balls on the patio.

The third and final day, I was going it alone and found myself really looking forward to seeing the dogs and how calm or not, we will be today.

i’d sent myself on ahead an hour or so before hand and had a chat with them. I told them we are going to stay calm and have a gentle and peaceful couple of hours.

As I went through the gate and up to the front door, there was no sound coming from the house. I opened the door and said ‘Hello guys’ and the three of them walked out in single file-if not sedately, certainly gently-tails wagging and no jumping up. It was Magical!

The two hours on the patio where gloreously tranquil. Sun on my skin, time to sit in peace and write, breath and feel, listening to the sounds of spring – Birds, sheep, dogs in the distance, a donkey brey, wood pigeons and a gently popping wind chime.

I felt at peace and because of telling my body to be slow and relaxed around the dogs, my body responded and slowed right down. I hadn’t been aware of having been tense, until I realized how relaxed I now felt.

What a blessing to have been given the opportunity to remember to be at peace, helped there by three beautiful, beautiful beasts.

Thanks you Tetlow, Roots and Jambo <3

Reiki is a healing therapy that is performed hands on or off the body, as well as at a distance.

The practitioner opens to the Life Force Energy which pours in through the practitioner’s open crown chakra and out through the palms of their hands, to be directed to the place on the receiver that is needing healing.

Reiki is an intuitive healing practice, meaning that the practitioner instinctively senses the areas needing attention and the healing energy instinctively knows where to go.

A Reiki session starts with a chat about any problem areas or issues you may have, followed by a half hour hands on healing, where all you have to do is lay back and relax. Then 15 minutes talking
over anything that is felt or brought to attention during the session.

A healing session is a safe, painless, relaxing treat for your body mind and soul, and can be a one-off session or a continued series of sessions.

Sessions are always strictly confidential.

Last night, I had a wonderful meditation.

I was guided up through a column, not of light as normal, but of non-light. And came to rest in a space, also devoid of light.

I was sitting on a cool, damp rock and sensed that the space I was in was a cave. All around were the growling and screeching of the monsters of my nightmare’s. In my mind, what the noises where coming from, where not monsters, but my fears. And as fears, they are nothing, therefore, there is nothing to fear.

Then the growling and snarling began to disapear with soft, bubble popping sounds. And I was left, sitting alone, on the cool, damp rock, in darkness and in silence. I felt completely safe, like it was the safest place I could ever be. So I sat for a while in the knowledge that I have nothing to fear.

A welcome and timely reminder.

I was looking towards the lake´s sand/rock shore, with a backdrop of various shades of grey/brown stone. The whole cave was lit by a natural light, a kind of non visual, multi coloured, sparkling light. More an impression, of coloured, sparkling light.

The energy inside the cave was the most beautiful, yet powerful energy, that I could feel all around, and through me.

It was Earthy, yet Angelic energy. Crystaline energy, The energy of Source.

You would love it too, in the Cave of Crystaline energy Source. Why not join me here, there´s room for everyone.

Our body is deeply connected to our instict. It talks to us in it´s own distinct yet subtle language.

When you hear or see something, when someone speaks to you, do you sometimes feel a sensation in your body? For instance, a heavy or light feeling in your stomache or solar plexus? Or in your chest (heart). A heavy feeling in your stomache could mean that you don´t trust what you are seeing or hearing, listen to it, your instict is telling you something. Similarly, a light, fuzzy feeling in your heart, is worth listening, feeling and enjoying.

Try it, try feeling and listening to your body. It know´s what it´s talking about, it´s information is coming from somewhere that knows everything. It may be a new language to learn, but it´s easier than Spanish, it´s been talking to you since you were born!

Thanks to Lyndsay for reminding me to listen to my body.

For some time now, I have been feeling stuck. Not moving forward. I wondered if there was something I was missing, something I needed to do, to move on. I wondered if it was something out of my control, holding me back. Occasionally, I´d feel as though I was waiting for something to shift, some movement, that was on a much deeper level.

Last week, I went through some incredible shifts. And now I´ve landed safely beyond the shifts. It´s as though I was up against a dam wall, pressure building up, and the wall has now broken open and I´m gushing forward. I´ve just realized that I feel as though I´ve moved forward physically, although I havn´t yet, but I know that it will happen imminently, now that I have moved forward in every other aspect.

I can make decisions now, that´s very liberating. I feel connected to a web, a web of all life, that all life is connected to. I am connected to all life and all life is connected to me. It´s an amazing feeling, I hope you will feel me here soon.

For the last year or so, I have been gently stretching myself by straightening my legs, back and neck when I lay down, and breathing deeply into my body.

This has helped me to open up my body and my heart. I feel straighter, and kind of taller.

The last couple of weeks, I´ve been stretching my feet in the same way, and now, when I stretch out fully, I get a wave come over me, that I can´t put my finger on yet, other than it is light.

I am expanding. Physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. My heart is growing to allow in more light and my body is expanding to accomodate my heart.

Peace, Love and Sparkles, and happy stretching

We are entering the ‘New World’.

This new World is a World of Love, Compassion and Understanding. A World of Unity, a World of One-ness.

The old World must break down, in order for the New World to become.

As we are awakening, we are experiencing the break down of the financial systems that we know, and with it the World contol and ‘Big Brother’ society that we live in.

At the same time, we are learning to drop old patterns, letting go of attatchment and our ego. Learning to live in Integrity and to Love unconditionally.

Letting go of our ego and attatchments, letting go of society, letting go of judgement, letting go of the conditioning we’ve had since birth. All of this can feel painful and difficult to do. So much for our Human-ness to deal with, so much change. Our lives feel out of alignment, and we feel helpless.

Our ecomomic situation, our relationships, our perspective is changing, bringing about, insecurity, mistrust, anger, fear, sorrow and grief. But we are just grieving and afraid of, the end of what we know, purging and cleansing us ready to accept the new, unknown, exciting, Love filled, Joyful existence we will live in the future.

Last night, I had a feeling of foreboding. Strangely, I could feel it in my heart, rather than my solar plexus. I tried not to let it worry me, as I didn’t know what it was about and there was nothing I could do. So I tried to relax.

Later, as I stood smoking out of the window, gazing at the mountains, gently lit by the moonlit mist. So still and beautiful and somehow surreal, like a painted picture.

It felt like the Earth was waiting for something, like the calm before a storm.

I felt small then, aware of the magnificance and power of nature.

Then, an image came into my mind. I could see the centre of the Earth. A big hot, orange, burning ball, shifting and moving constantly. I could feel the immense energy.

Then the image moved upwards through the layers of the Earth, until I was standing on  it’s surface.

The towns, roads, buildings and people, oblivious to all the action going on below.

The image moved up again, up and away from the Earth, until I was in space, looking at Earth from a distance.

I felt compelled to send healing and light out to the Earth.

It was a very powerful vision, and along with the pressure in my heart, I was feeling quite uneasy as I climbed into bed.

This morning, I woke to the news of the Earthquake in Chile. I felt it right through my body.

I am sending healing and love to those poor people who’s lives have been abrubtly and brutally torn apart. And pray that the ensuing tsunami will pass before causing more devastation, on the coasts of the Pacific Ocean.
