There are so many courses on communicating which seems to indicate that we aren’t good at communicating. I’m currently working on understanding what communication is and what is the best way we can improve our ability to communicate. The meaning of communication seems pretty straightforward, but it has different meanings depending on whether you’re talking about skills in the workplace, about the field of linguistics or about broadcast media. So when I say “you need to improve your communication” it [...]

I’ve been helping a friend with her e-book – typing, editing, creating a website – and now the book is finished and available. The book is about preparing and remaining positive in the now and in our outlook for the future. One of the readers recently described the book as a meditation. I think she means that you easily tune into the message or that it has a resonance that is familiar. Not everybody may feel the same. My feeling [...]

After a big break, I’m back again. Doing something different and changing cities. I have been involved with an e-book which will be released next week. More on that later. I borrowed my daughter’s digital harinazumi and took some lovely photos which I’m posting for you to enjoy.

I recently read about a woman who had overcome a serious of illnesses. She sort a range of cures which included working with a shaman. As a result of her journey, she started an organisation called Girls on Top with the aim to conquer fears and inadequacies. She is now running a project to run a medical clinic in the Amazon in October next year. I think she is really inspiring. Her name is Jade Richardson and this is her [...]

I have just returned from Tasmania (an island south of the mainland of Australia) and enjoyed some gorgeous sunsets as well as fantastic fresh fruit. We had plenty of raspberries, cherries, strawberries as well as apricots and nectarines. The weather was mild until the second week of January when everyone greeted the long lost summer. The sunset here was taken from Low Head where we’d gone to see the Little Penguins. The sunset came gradually; every minute the colours changed [...]

I used to commute to work via train. The trip each way was around an hour 10 minutes. The most exciting part of the journey was 10 minutes along the Hawkesbury River. A window seat on this side of the train was the most sought after. The excitement was to see a fish jumping out of the water, seemingly totally at random. And usually it was just one fish. As the train chugged along the river, my eyes would peel [...]

The news is saturated with the financial crisis informing us about the stock market movements, about the collapse or possible collapse of other financial companies, and what governments are doing about it. We see stories of people losing their houses and of record numbers of people accessing charity services. This news is causing us to worry. We worry about our jobs, our homes and about the future. Then worry develops into fear and we see everything with fear in our [...]

I attended the Women’s Network lunch and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The members are a diverse group of women either working for themselves in small businesses or for larger organisations. As we arrived we mingled with others, looked at the display tables and had a welcome drink. We then moved into the dining room where each of us spoke for roughly 30 seconds on what we do. If you wished you could exchange business cards with someone you’d like to connect [...]

There are some days where time ticks slowly as you complete a task you’ve done over and over. There are other days where time moves at lightening speed. I’ve had two of those days just recently. One minute I realise I’m having a telephone interview, the next I’m agreeing to a very agreeable next step of signing to be part of this entrepreneurial organisation. At least it is very agreeable at the moment. Everyone that’s part of it, say it [...]

I’ve been busy working on a terrific elearning site (yes, I’m biased). Still much work to do, but the first level is ready and the site has been launched. The site is called Spiritual Awareness Course – take a look to see what it is like. The course is about developing your intuition which in the process develops your spirituality as well. We are seeing many people needing guidance and many, many people wanting to see psychics for guidance. The [...]
