  • April Daily Practice Wrap Up: Do What You Want To Do

    Ok, I’ll be honest here – I thought this practice would be a bit of fun, a doss, a laugh…and once again, as so often happens with these daily practices, it became quite a deep and profound learning experience. I was surprised at how difficult it is to just let myself do what I want…

  • Podcast: Taking The Time To Review Your Big Dream

    Instead of just driving with no reference point, stop and look at the map. Take the time to stop and check in with how your Big Dream is going – what’s going well, what needs tweaking. To listen to this week’s podcast, click here: Taking the Time To Review Your Big Dream Homework: Take the…

  • OnTheBeach: Wake Up It’s a Beautiful Morning

    What do you wake up to? Do you wake up to the news telling you that it’s a depressing day in a depressing world? Do you wake up to some irritating idiot who thinks he’s funny? Do you wake up to a jarring beep-beep-beep-beep? Or do you wake up to something that fills you with…

  • Podcast: Sharing Your Big Dream

    Podcast: Sharing Your Big Dream

    There are 3 levels of ‘big dream sharing’: 1 – the ‘baby big dream’ – when your dream is new and precious. The only people to share with are those who will treat it gently and with the respect and love it deserves. 2 – starting to take action on your big dream. Again, it…

  • OnTheBeach: Too Much of a Good Thing is Toxic

    As you may know, this year I have got into the habit of switching off my computer on a Friday night, and not switching back on until Monday morning. It’s a nice habit, and one I’m happy to continue – you wouldn’t believe how much more time you have at the weekends when you’re not…

  • Podcast: Other People’s Opinions and Your Big Dream

    All along your Big Dream journey, other people’s opinions will affect your Big Dream.

    OnTheBeach: Stop Feeling Powerless and Become A Terrier

    I was talking to my yoga teacher last night about problem-solving, and how if there’s a problem you try a solution and if that doesn’t work, try something else, and if that doesn’t work, try something else…and so on. My yoga teacher says “yes, you’re a terrier – not everyone is like that!” Really? They…

  • Podcast: Confidence In Yourself And Your Big Dream

    Sometimes we feel like we can’t do anything with our Big Dream, because we have no confidence in ourselves. But we get confidence by taking action, by putting ourselves out there, by stretching ourselves and taking on challenges. Don’t let the fear stop you, take a deep breath, sing I Have Confidence In Me, and…

  • April Daily Practice: Do What You Want To Do

    When was the last time you allowed yourself to just spend a day doing what you wanted to do? No chores. No doing things because they’re on your to do list. No meeting obligations. No ‘be here at that time’, then race to ‘be there at this time’. Just moment to moment, doing what you…
