If you are here reading this you are undoubtedly looking for a way to release yourself from pain and find peace. 

 

From my own personal experience, I understand how this may feel - perhaps you feel you have tried everything and may even be disheartened at the prospect on embarking on something new.  Through my journey, I tried every type of therapy possible, I even trained in them.  When this didn't seem to bring the release I longed for, I explored other avenues.  I was absolutely determined to 'figure it out'.  I knew there was something more and back then had a vague idea it had something to do with spirituality.  I embarked on a path of tantra, shamanism, crystals, meditation, plant medicines, enemas, mantras and so many more things in the pursuit of peace.  Following a catalysing event in my life, I turned to forgiveness as part of the peace finding process.  I taught myself how to really forgive and let go of all grievances and all the areas where I blamed others.  The effects of this were immediate and profound.  I learned about victim consciousness and how it holds us captive in our pain, and learned how to begin to step out of these patterns.  I had to stop judging and start forgiving in order to get free.  I got it. 

 

I kept reading and hearing the terms God and Jesus during these days.  It was making me feel very uncomfortable.  This was an 'ideology' I had put away a long time ago.  My family's aversion to religion had conditioned me well away from any concept of God.  Likewise it had also conditioned me away from the concept of unconditional love, and as I began to question the relationship between real love and God, A Course in Miracles arrived in my life.  The next phase of my awakening journey began within the pages of this book.  Although I couldn't understand much of it at first, the words were so beautiful.  It spoke of a kind and loving God and the possibility of living a life as true awareness, as joy and peace and in resonance with unconditional love, for all others.  I was really curious and committed to completing the one year daily lessons and learn how to reconnect with love.  I didn't realise at the time that this was a journey of non dualism, and that essentially the process was psychological.  I was learning how to differentiate between my egoic thinking mind and my true self.  Much of this resonated with the IFS training I had completed over the years and the more I read and applied the lessons, the more it made sense.  The journey home back to God isn't spiritual after all.  It isn't about engaging in daily spiritual practices or journalling or yoga or being a nice person, its about dis-identifying with the false and illusory thinking self I misidentified with as myself and reconnect with the God consciousness of One that dwells within us all.  I realised I am not who I thought I was and that the pathway back to truth had arrived.  

​

I learned that we are not our stories, that the traumas and pain we hold on to serve to keep us in patterns of victim levels of consciousness.  I learned that we have to take responsibility to step out of these story lines, forgive our way through it and get out of the victim mind-set altogether if we are to find true peace and happiness.  Not everyone is ready to hear this message.  We are so identified with the story of the past, the dualistic engagement with the world, the rights, the wrongs, the blaming, the need for punishment and retribution that we are blinded to what lies beyond that.  The egoic thinking mind is strong in all of us and absorbs us in a sense of importance and justification for the way it is.  The Course in Miracles helped me to see the insanity intrinsic to the way we think and behave with each other.  This world is barren of the unconditional love, real love, non judgemental thinking, forgiveness and true restorative connection we deeply crave for, but don't know how to access.

 

If you are ready to put down your false identify, the past and the need to find correction in the external, then the type of work I share could be perfect you.  It's a radical journey of self responsibility, accountability and a commitment to finding peace and love in the everything and the everyday in the everything of time.
