When my pain body tries to get a reaction and I don't respond, I then get this intense heat in the body and I sweat a lot.

But I am now realising how odd it is, and I don't believe in it as much as I used to. Then I'm the observer of it. Then the heat/sweating stops almost immediately.

But what does it mean? To me, I think it's as if the pain body is trying whatever it can to get a "explosive" reaction and it's not.

But, why intense heat????

“The secret of self confidence isn't to stop caring about what people think - it's about caring about what YOU think. It's to make your opinion of yourself more important than anyone else's.”

I came across this quote by Napoleon Hill recently and loved it, so thought I'd share. It's a reminder to not add any weight to any voices around you that try to bring you down or you feel hold you back in any way…

The latest book in my popular “A Tale Of Two Ninja Kids” series is out now. This is a family-friendly martial arts adventure series for ages 7 and up…

If you are dealing with any negative thought patterns, question whether or not they are serving you. What are they doing to help?

Recently during a one-to-one session, someone asked me how to deal with stress. A technique came up that was quite effective, and I hope it can help anyone here who is dealing with anything similar…

This week I thought I’d mention another way to deal with negative or intrusive thoughts.

Treat them as if they are negative friends – people who mean well and want the best for you, but people who you would be wise to stay away from and not listen to…

People I speak with during one-to-ones are often thrown off by negative thoughts. They might be in a good place mentally, but a particular painful thought might keep coming back to nag them.

One of the best solutions is indifference…

Having a goal helps to focus your mind and energy. If we have an emotional goal, it makes us more aware of what we are thinking, how we are feeling, and it can sharpen our ability to let go of anything that keeps us from our goal. Having an emotional goal can make finding happiness easier…

I hope this article helps to give you a quick and easy method for how to deal with negative thoughts and a negative mind, allowing you to access a part of your mind that can actually give rise to positive and empowering thoughts.

Forgiveness can be made easier through asking yourself the question:

"If I was able to forgive or let go of this - then how would I feel?"

If you ask the question and feel for the response, and repeat this inner experiment, eventually you might reach a point where you are experiencing the freedom of forgiveness, without ever making the step to forgive and let go.

I hope this video helps in making forgiveness easier, which was taken from a one-to-one session with me.

Recently during a group Zoom call I began by talking about the attempt to quieten the mind, and how to make it easier.

Trying to silence or calm the mind through force can create extra tension. If we realise that this calmness or quietness is all around us all the time, then it is easier for the noise to merge with that silence naturally. Below you can watch a short clip of me explaining this little tip that can make meditation easier. I hope it helps...

During a recent group zoom call for inner peace, someone asked about dealing with a sense of dissatisfaction they were feeling in their life. Hopefully this simple approach can help in dealing with dissatisfaction and finding happiness…

During recent group Zoom meetings I have been asked if the desire for happiness or the desire to feel good implies resistance against negativity within ourselves.

"If I want to be happy, does that mean I am in resistance to unhappiness?"

I would say not necessarily. Happiness is a natural preference, in the same way that pleasant food is preferred over garbage. Once the fight against unhappiness or negativity starts to come to an end, there gradually becomes more space for us to choose a way to feel, if we want to do such a thing…

Hello everyone,

Recently during a one-to-one session I was speaking with someone about jealousy and the reason for it.

Jealousy is usually an ineffective attempt to get what we want. If someone has something that we want, but we think we don't have it, the jealous feeling can be an inner objection, like a child becoming upset if it doesn't get its own way, demanding that things change for the better.

If we are actually choosing to feel good or happy instead of feeling negative in any way, are we not resisting the negativity in order to feel better? Is there not some kind of conflict within us if we want or choose to feel happy?

During a recent group Zoom meeting for inner peace, someone began asking about how to move out of negative self-stories. This led to a response about the mind ultimately seeking some sense of existence or security, and how this sense of security could be accessed directly in a much more enjoyable way. Then there is a segment about inner peace - how you can treat it as an infinite and abundant energy that is constantly around you and flowing through you, and you are either noticing it, or not...

The desire to feel good - is it wrong?

Something that came up in a recent group Zoom meeting…

The desire to feel good or experience happiness - does this mean we are resisting ourselves being in a state of non-happiness?

Try this little exercise of “thank you” to train your mind away from negative thoughts…
