How Making a Petition to the Universe Got Us a Free Car

Have you ever asked the Universe for something, something perhaps a little outlandish and unlikely, and then somehow had this thing spontaneously appear in your life?  I have.  In fact, it happened to me just recently. Considering my previous blog posts about ‘the revolutionary power of synchronicity’, I think this short tale is worth telling.  Road Trips It all started...

 How I Used Ritual to Transform the Festive Season

In this post I share how I transformed a sad and disastrous Christmas away from home into a soul nourishing time full of ritual, depth, beauty and good mince pies 😉 For many people, the festive season is about presents and eating good food with your friends and family whilst listening to Slade and Maria Carey.

Abundance

What Having No Money Has Taught Me About Abundance

As the year draws to a close and we move further into the festive season, abundance abounds from all directions.

The Revolutionary Power of Synchronicity

And how I am going to use it to fulfill my dream of leaving the city and starting an earth-centred life in the countryside. And why this is, in fact, a revolutionary act of political disobedience.

Rainbow Vision: The Secret Antidote to Doom and Gloom

The hidden power of the rainbow in the face of an ever miserable world.   Some time ago I went to visit some family in Galicia, Northern Spain.

Lessons in Love from Lockdown

Commitment, hospitality, and getting what you wished for: what I learnt after over 60 days of being in strict quarantine with my Argentinian in-laws   It has been 5 months since I started writing articles for this blog and in those 5 months, life has changed dramatically. Back in January when I made my pledge to the world and declared...

Homo Sapiens- The World’s Most Domesticated Species

Intelligent above all others or blindly domesticated and whipped into submission? Disconnected from their natural habitat and instead taught to live in the cage of the modern world, homo-sapiens are breaking free at last. Recently I went for breakfast with a good friend of mine, Laura. City girl by nature, she feels perfectly at home here in the urban jungle-...
