“The Architecture of All Abundance”

Posted by on Jul 13, 2010 in Book reviews | Comments Off on “The Architecture of All Abundance”

I love second hand book shops, well I just love books but I’m also lucky enough to live a short drive from Hay-on-Wye – the book capital of the world. Every other shop is a book shop, most of them selling second-hand copies at bargain prices. There is a certain magic in going into one of these places, asking the universe to take you to something you need to read and then enjoying the delicious adventure of anticipation as you browse the often haphazard shelves, waiting for something to leap out at you. Please excuse this rather...

Maintaining a healthy brow chakra

Posted by on Jul 9, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on Maintaining a healthy brow chakra

This chakra is situated in the centre of the forehead, just above eye level, and is often referred to as the third eye. Here is where your intuition, insight and psychic perception sits, allowing you to see beyond the physical world and transcend space and time. Clairvoyants and psychics all have a highly developed brow chakra. In a way, this is not dissimilar to ordinary seeing since it has been scientifically proved that it is not really our eyes that see, but our minds. The eyes are merely focal lenses that transcribe the information they...

Community arts – the importance of creating together

Posted by on Jul 5, 2010 in Spiritual living | Comments Off on Community arts – the importance of creating together

I was at the fantastic Mid Wales Shakespeare Centre over the weekend for the Family Shakespeare Festival, in my other guise as theatre administrator and actress (as well as leading an ancestral healing workshop). It was a fantastic and much-needed celebration of creativity and communication through performing arts as it came hot on the heels of a devastating announcement that mid Wales has lost three of its arts centres – Wyeside in Builth Wells, CARAD in Rhayader and Theatr Powys in Llandrindod Wells – due to Arts Council funding...

Maintaining a healthy throat chakra

Posted by on Jul 1, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on Maintaining a healthy throat chakra

This chakra is situated in the area of the neck and shoulders, and controls the thyroid and parathyroid glands. Not surprisingly for the location of the voice box, the throat chakra relates to communciation through sound, vibration, self-expression and creativity. As with the heart, we’re moving further away from the physical now. because communication allows us to transcend the ordinary limitations of the body and to make connections with others. It’s very common to have a problem with this chakra, which shows up as sore throats,...

The Mayan calendar

Posted by on Jun 21, 2010 in Spiritual living | Comments Off on The Mayan calendar

Yesterday I attended an excellent workshop by my friend and mine of information Nick Marchmont (see his details at the end of this post) on the Mayan culture and their calendar. It was actually the second time I’d attended as I’d been a guinea pig for the first workshop, but it was more than worth a second hearing. The calendar is an amazingly complex and detailed journey through the year, giving anyone who chooses to use it a useful structure for any kind of project and indeed life management. Encoded within it is astonishing...

Listening to your body talk

Posted by on Jun 18, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on Listening to your body talk

As a healer I’m well aware that physical pains and problems are often just the symptom of a client’s underlying mental, emotion or spiritual dis-ease. We’ve become very used to ignoring and disrespecting our body, when really it’s the most incredible mine of information when it comes to our wellbeing – if we’d just take the time to listen. Hands up who’s ignored that slight tension in the neck only to have to visit a chiropractor a few months down the line with a frozen shoulder (yes, my hand is in...

The meaning of colours in the aura

Posted by on Jun 10, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on The meaning of colours in the aura

Colour in the aura is usually perceived in the second layer of the aura, the emotional body (see my earlier post about the aura). Starting to see the aura and its colours Ask a friend to stand in front of a plain wall (a white one is best). Relax your whole body and especially your eyes and soft gaze at the area around the head and shoulders. You will probably start to notice a glow, maybe an inch or two deep around them. This is the first layer of the aura, the etheric body. If you continue to watch in the same relaxed way you may get the...

The aura (human energy field)

Posted by on Jun 10, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on The aura (human energy field)

As quantum physicists will tell you, all space, living and non-living objects (including us!) are made up of an energy field which saturates, connects and continuously flows between all things. Before anything happens in the physical world, a change takes place first in this energy field. Your aura is the energy that surrounds and flows through your physical body and it can extend as much as several feet from your actual body. As your aura is constantly coming into contact and exchanging energy with other people’s, you can understand why you...

Maintaining a healthy heart chakra

Posted by on Jun 10, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on Maintaining a healthy heart chakra

This chakra is situated in the centre of the chest, the cardiac plexus, and rules over the heart, lungs and thymus gland. The heart is the centre of the chakra system, through which the various aspects of your being are integrated and balanced, where the spirit descends into the body through the upper chakras and physical matter rises to meet spirit through the lower chakras. In fact, this chakra is all about maintaining balance between mind and body, inner and outer realms, yourself and others, giving and receiving. The heart is your...

Maintaining a healthy solar plexus chakra

Posted by on May 24, 2010 in Healing | Comments Off on Maintaining a healthy solar plexus chakra

This chakra, as its name suggests, is situated in the solar plexus, over the adrenal glands. Related to the fire element, the solar plexus chakra rules our metabolism and therefore the digestive system which pays a major part in the metabolic process. Its fiery energy brings us light, warmth, energy and power – it’s our ‘get up and go’ and will centre – and so it’s here also that we feel the lack of those things (such as butterflies when we’re nervous). Traditionally, it’s believed that all the...
