“Wait on the Will of Heaven” So all the messages I’ve been getting lately are about ‘patience’, ‘waiting’, ‘inner focus’, ‘obstacles’, ‘struggles’, ‘walking through the darkness to come into the light’. It might just be me, but I think these are difficult messages to receive. In our world, we want what we want when we [...]

Things never go as planned and that’s okay. The last couple of days of my cleanse were what some would call anti-climactic, however, I feel they were appropriate to what this period of contemplation was teaching me. I have discovered a lot about what my life’s purpose is and where my true self resides. And [...]

And so it continues! I started feeling it early in the morning, but ignored it. I turned my back on it, pretended I didn’t see it, focused my attention on other things, distracted myself with busy work, but there it was…and it wouldn’t go away. I had caught a cold. Or, rather, a cold had [...]

What I’ve learned is…. 1. My life is not about money 2. My purpose is to be in service 3. Being with my family and taking care of my house is important to me 4. Other people’s junk is not my junk 5. I can heal myself 6. Frank likes being clean and neat 7. [...]

Doing all the things that “take priority”. “Priority” is an interesting word, a common word, and one that irritates slightly because it begs the question, how do we decide what takes priority? Okay, so if we look at Maslow’s hierarchy of needs (in it’s simplistic form), we know that our basic physiological and safety needs [...]

Whoa Nelly! Friday and Saturday were very active days around here. I’m preferring to use the word active these days to “busy”; busy sounds too mindless to me. And those two days were very mindful. Part of this cleanse was to involve cleaning the house and purging extra ‘stuff’. So, by Friday that started to [...]

Cleansing comes in many forms. My son liked the painting that I did so much we had a little confrontation about where it would be placed in the house. He is insisting that it be displayed prominently for all the world to see in the living room; or at least somewhere that can be seen [...]

As I sit, munching salad… I knew it had been a couple of days since I posted my progress, but I didn’t know I had missed three days! Writing doesn’t flow as well for me in the evening, and I had my kids with me for various reasons for the past three days. So let’s [...]

Physical pain that’s beyond physical in it’s origin. The headache I had on Saturday night persisted throughout the night (though didn’t prevent me from sleeping too much) and caused some very odd dreams. I dreamed I was travelling on my own and was in Russia (I studied Russian in university and did travel there with [...]

Bad cravings and lots of energy movement were the norm. I honestly didn’t suspect I would have such bad food cravings while doing this thing. I also honestly don’t know why I thought that! I have, after all, given up some of my most favourite foods; tea, sugar, potatoes, bread (with yeast), cheese. I mentioned [...]
