How to make fear work for you
Fear used to save us. These days it’s ruining us. Fearing the future, fearing change, fearing death, fearing speaking your truth, fearing what people will think if you follow your dreams, it’s all piling up. And we’ve got media, leaders and governments actively fear-mongering. Chronic fear depletes your ‘kidney yang’, and that leads to lethargy, […]
Don’t get even get neutral: how to stand up for yourself
Change forces us to look at things so we can understand more about who we are and then become more connected to that. The cycle of change repeats endlessly over millennia, but it always moves us forwards purposefully towards a more harmonious planet.You can’t see the big picture when you’re in it though so, on […]
The solution for information overload: upgrade yourself
We’re not even 3 weeks in to 2024 and so many people are telling me they’re feeling scattered, they’ve had enough, are not ‘with it’, or need a holiday, that I think we need to rethink how to reset. Back in the old early 21st century days there was an end-of-year break, things felt finalised […]
Spiritual awakening: a practical guide online course
I just came across research finding that over 40% of the population had had a profound spiritual experience or spiritual awakening that changed the direction of their life, but that most of them don’t talk about it. The common factors people reported were an increased belief in the immortality of the spirit, becoming aware of human […]
Channel your higher self
I’ve just rediscovered ‘channels’. Back in the new-age days, everybody read Edgar Cayce, Bashar, and more contemporary mediums or channels; people who accessed information from higher sources / higher selves and then shared it to help humanity. By the 90s, after Abraham and Esther Hicks (and the Secret) I’d moved on. First to the success […]
Alcohol, Alchemy and Addiction
I did a post this week on alcohol, how in Chinese medicine wine can be therapeutic, and then got heaps of blowback such as ‘it’s ethanol and it shrinks your brain’, or ‘it’s toxic and you must never drink’. Since this is a drinking season, and since by next week plenty of people are going […]
Cheating, affairs and chi
Cheating is the number one reason globally that relationships (married and unmarried) end. With around half of married people cheating at least once, it’s a big relationship destroyer, and a potential destiny derailer. And, apparently, ‘tis the season for affairs now. People are more likely to start an affair during the xmas holidays than at any other […]
Don’t censor yourself, seek your truth
Censorship is nothing new. One book I keep re-reading, on my mission to master the true art of Chinese medicine, is the Hua Hu Ching, but in another time that would have got me in big trouble. The book teaches the ‘Integral Truth’ to help people through the struggles of life and support their path […]
Chinese Medicine101 online course
Ta daaa! I just finished putting 35 years of my clinical experience and passion for Chinese medicine into an online course: Chinese Medicine 101! Thinking about everything everyone asks me about diet, sleep, meditation, chi-gong, sex, breakfast, purpose, organs, symptoms and more, I created 25 video tutorials (6 hours content all up). I reclaim the […]
Purpose overrules escape!
I found myself googling beach shacks in north QLD yesterday, imagining a total opt-out, growing veggies, no power bills, no stress….like the good old days in the commune in Nimbin! I was fully into it, found the perfect place up near Airlie beach, and even told my wife (unimpressed!). Then I turned the computer off […]
