Having a soft heart in a cruel world is courage, not weakness.
Being gentle, kind, accepting and forgiving are not acts of weakness, but expressions of self-confidence, self-awareness and love.

‘When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace…’
It is estimated that there are one billion people with ‘recognised’ disabilities on earth and it is humanity’s responsibility to do all it can to enable all such people to enjoy a full and complete life by understanding and responding to their various and different needs.

70% of adults in the U.S. have experienced some type of traumatic event at least once in their lives. That is over 223.4 million people.
The energy of trauma is stored in our bodies' tissues (primarily muscles and fascia) until it can be released. This stored trauma typically leads to pain and progressively erodes a body's health.

What is FEAR?
Fear is all in the mind. It is a thought, an image created by the mind, an illusion and a delusion. And yet our mind can conjure up such vivid images of what ‘might’ happen, what ‘could’ happen, even what we think ‘is’ happening, that it triggers the body’s reactions and provokes ‘real’ physical sensations of sickness, dread, pain and suffering. The ego will do anything to protect itself.

It is in giving that we receive…
We have been conditioned to assume that life is all about accumulation, and success measured by what we own. We then stress about what we might lose rather than rejoice in how we might contribute.

“Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” – Roald Dahl
Find your stillness. Observe your amazing world. See the magic all around. It surrounds you. You are it. There’s nothing to ‘believe’! Just be awake...

When we rediscover, in silence, our inner place of peace, we begin to realise who we really are and our essential relationship with our environment and our universe. We become observers and witnesses of our own thoughts and ego…and gradually learn to let go.
As we go deeper we start to become conscious of the divinity of nature that surrounds us and of the miracles that happen every day but which we otherwise just walk past without noticing.

There is a wishful belief that life should only be composed of good, of light and of eternal happiness: and that the ‘dark’ side is bad, to be avoided at all costs and to be feared. This is what also feeds our feelings of ‘separateness’ and our fear of death – as if death signalled the absolute end of everything and an ultimate failure.
But the reality is that we cannot have light without dark, any more than we can have the crest of a wave without a trough, hot without cold, inside without outside or life without death.

In this seemingly so confused and so confusing world, where the pace of existence and change is so great, it is easy to forget the basic principles of life. Life is there to be lived. It is a gift. It is an opportunity for spiritual growth and to help and support others.
Being kind lifts the heart increases consciousness, sends positive vibrations into the universe, creates happiness. It’s very easy really!

Can it be delivered ?
Hoping both teams give us a cracking match and play to the best of their ability! And good luck England!

“Seek spiritual riches within. What you are is much greater than anything or anyone else you have ever yearned for. And remember, the fear of not having, disguises the reality that we have everything.” – Paramhansa Yogananda
We have a habit of looking outside of ourselves for happiness and fulfilment in an attempt to find our heaven. So we acquire more ‘things’, higher status, more intense experiences...and are left always wanting more and more, and somehow feeling cheated. We have worked and striven so hard, and for what. Heaven always seems to be beyond our reach...

There is an angel in all of us.
To find our angel we need to chip away at our unconscious and undifferentiated stone structure until we set him or her free.
