Nature is our greatest healing resource. People have always looked at Nature for healing, spiritual guidance, signs, communication, omens, etc. There are answers to most of our questions in life – if we know how and where to look.
As we learn to honour and listen to Nature, we begin to experience greater awareness, our dreams become more colourful, more lucid and even prophetic. Our senses will heighten and we will discover new healing, new inspiration and even new dimensions.
Let us reconnect back to Nature by practising some simple and basic steps
* Take regular trips into Nature
* Find a special place around your garden to sit and observe Nature
* Observe and be curious about everything. Notice what is going on around you.
* When out in Nature, learn to be silent. Observe and comtemplate.
* Make your home environment attractive to wildlife. Hang feeders, put in birdbath and fountain, grow fruit trees.
Nature talks to us all the time and if we start listening and paying attention, we can gain some wonderful insight into our life processes.

It was my first time going to see a Psychic Reader. It must have been some time in 1995. It was one of my first few encounters with new age matters, esoteric …. I was nervous and excited. I wondered just what do these people do. Thoughts raced through my mind as I sat and waited nervously outside her with door with a sign that read “If you are early, please DO NOT ring the door bell”. The clock ticked but seemed not to move and after what seemed like hours, the door opened and a lovely, plumpish lady greeted me with a warm smile. I took a deep breath and walked into her home.
We went into her healing room and as I entered this room, a wave of calmness flooded me. She had me seated opposite her and with no questions asked, she started the session telling me about my immediate past and my previous past lives. What impressed me most was what she told me about my immediate past as I have nothing to verify against what she read about my previous past lives.
Half an hour into the reading, she told me the reason for my recurring headaches (at no time did she ask me any questions and at no time did I volunteer any information. In fact it was a monologue with her speaking only). She then performed a healing session on me with the sound “EEE”. She stood behind me with palms placed on top of my head. As she chanted the “EEE” sound, I could feel the vibration travelling from my crown down to my spine. I was drifing away so free and light, colours drifted in and out of my vision. I felt energies changing within and it seemed a weight was lifted off me. The soul was filled with joy and the heart learned to sing.
The healing lasted for about 15 minutes. After that we chatted again and messages were given. The healing brought in a feeling of balance, my energies felt restored and I felt able to take charge of my life. I felt I could see what was happening and why.

A picture of sunshine and all things merry
“We dont laugh because we are happy. We are happy because we laugh”
William James – father of modern pyschology
According to some studies conducted, an average 5 year old laughs more than 350 times a day versus an average adult who laughs less than 20 times a day. People have forgotten how to laugh as they get caught in the rat race. Laughter helps elevate our moods, promotes creativity, gives us more positive energies and thus helps in healing illnesses and ailments. When you surround yourself with humour and laughter, you will create new awareness in your life and will begin to see the lighter side of things which will help lower your stress level.
Reconnect to your playful side and enjoy the wonders of a deep belly laugh!!!

This is dedicated to a very true friend who left us on 21 June 2008.
You have left behind many sparks of light. You have touched the lives of many especially those who are less fortunate than us. As I walked you on the last leg of your journey on that fateful morning I pray that you continue your work from the Spheres Of Light
I have known many different kinds of people in my life. I have met people who are caring and some who are calculating. I have known those who are sincere and honest and of course those who are the direct opposites. I have seen smiles filled with lies and tears wet with truths. I have shared times with those who needed a friend and I have been by myself when I needed one. I have been associated with people who are dreamers but not doers and with people who are doers not for themselves but for others. I have been learning how to understand all these personalities and to be a friend to all to the best I can.
My soul yearns for those who still believe in life’s truths; of honesty, of sincerity, of compassion etc. I long for a place where people live their lives in love and harmony, free from sorrows and sickness, where people can talk to one another about the things that matter, like being friends and caring about the dreams that we all believe in. I long for a time ….

Raising a child is the hardest, most responsible and satisfying task a human being can face. It’s also the job for which people receive the least formal training.
Each person’s knowledge of how to bring up a child usually comes from their surroundings and their own upbringing. This may result in patterns from the parent’s own social experiences being repeated and passed on to their children.
Parents are the most influential role models children are likely to have. Parents who pay compliments and show respect, kindness, honesty, friendliness, hospitality and generosity to their children will encourage them to behave in the same way.
Discipline is crucial when bringing up a child. Through discipline your child learns that some kinds of behaviour are acceptable and others are not. Setting boundaries for children’s behaviour helps them to learn how to behave in society.
Discipline is difficult to deal with because it demands consistency. Being a parent is a 24-hour job. The rules have to apply every day. And parents themselves have to follow the same set of discipline they have for their child.
Offering explanations will help children work matters out for themselves. Take time to point out how things are connected, for example, in terms of cause and effect.
Parents, who think out loud with their children, will see them develop a similar train of thought. They will learn to talk and think in a more sophisticated way.
If parents express emotions and feelings, their children will learn it’s okay to do the same. A word of caution here though. Make sure negative emotions or negative actions are not shown here as we know that children will have the “monkey see, monkey do” mind.
When your children want to talk or ask questions, encourage them. If you’re dismissive, or always say you’re too busy, they may express frustration and stop wanting to share their thoughts and feelings.
When discussing options, also talk about consequences. The possible outcome will influence your final decision. Be open to the child’s suggestions. Let them take part in the negotiations and the decision.
A child who experiences this kind of communication will become confident and learn the rules of good communication.
Remember, parents, your child is the sum total of who you are.
