I want to change my life

Lasting change happens one small step at a time.

What simple change might you choose to make so your life feels more fun or satisfying?  

My life can feel very hectic, so I have promised myself I am going to attend a colleague’s mid-week meditation. It is 45 minutes of pure calmness. It is something I do for my soul and me. We love it.

What will your treat be?

Keep it simple. It doesn’t have to cost much either. Suggestions might be a lovely, long hot bath to relax in, a walk in the park alone enjoying observing and feeling nature around you, reading a good book, listening to music. The list can be quite extensive…. read more

Rumi’s Reflections: Alison Wem’s Journal – Day 10

Be like a

TREE

and let the

dead leaves

DROP

Jalal al-Din Rumi

As you develop spiritually, some of the people and things in your life no longer please you. This is alright and as it should be. You have developed and your hopes and wishes have changed with you.

Allow these people to gracefully drop from your life as a dead, autumn leaf gently drops to the ground having served the tree well throughout the summer.

Part with love and all will be well.

Who loves you unconditionally?

Who gives you unconditional love when you need it most?

We all need unconditional love at some point in our lives.

Life can be full of challenges.

When you have lost something or someone you love and value, is when you are most likely to need comfort and support. Perhaps you have lost a child, partner, home, business or a job. All can leave you feeling bereft and upset as if your whole life is falling apart.

Even in adulthood, you can often crave your mum or someone else special whom you loved as you were growing up. From as early as you can remember, your mum was the one who picked you up when you had fallen over. read more

Healing: tips on helping it to happen

Relax and know that healing can help no matter what the state of your health is at the time. It often works silently away without you being away of it. It is not just for the time you might have a healing session or do a healing meditation. When you ask for help it does arrive.

Having worked as a healer for many years, my observations and tips on healing are;

  • Relax and allow the healing to happen. Your soul knows you well and will guide the healing you need. It will silently continue long after your healing session. Healing often comes with messages of love and support from those you love who have already passed. They were always there for you and continue to be there for you, people such as parents and partners.

Healing will take place whether you believe in it or not.

  • Practice relaxing techniques such as taking three deep breaths or walking in nature alone. Illness often brings worry and anxiety, so anything that helps you to relax is worthwhile. It is hard to live from a place of anxiety and fear.

Learn to live from a place of calmness.

  • Even if you know you are terminally ill, healing can help you to relax. It brings in a calmness so you might enjoy the time left to you. There is often a significant reduction in the pain normally expected with your illness. I have heard clients say when they receive healing, they feel truly at peace. But importantly, receiving healing ahead of passing helps to build a stronger bridge between your loved ones in spirit and those on earth. As you start to transition from earth your communication to loved ones in spirit is clearer. When you have passed, you are more easily able to help your grieving loved ones you left on earth.

No healing is wasted.

Healing offers you the opportunity to live the best life you can. Life is a gift and it’s for living and enjoying. read more

Living with balance in your life

Finding balance in all you think, feel and do brings you calmness. In my experience, when you feel calmness there is much more clarity on who you are and what is happening in your life.

In the northern hemisphere the Spring Equinox is coming on the 21st March. It brings us out of winter and officially is the start of the spring season. But what exactly is the spring equinox? 

First, let’s get into the equinox, which actually occurs twice a year. We have already mentioned the Spring Equinox. Another equinox occurs on the 23rd September and takes us into autumn. The word equinox comes from Latin and means “equality of night and day.” So, the equinox occurs at two specific moments in time when the sun is exactly above the equator.  read more

Smile at the world

My mum always used to say to me;

“Smile at the world and it will smile back at you.”

It was a good thought to send me to school with and one I particularly remember today. When you are open and feel happy, you radiate such a lovely positive energy people will respond to you without even thinking.

Don’t believe me?

Give my suggestion a try. Spend today smiling at people – walking down the street, in the queue at the supermarket, in the park, at the office. Wherever you come across a stranger, smile at them. Make it a lovely big smile rather than a shy grimace. read more
