Ive had things to say but its hard getting "motivated" to sit down and write them. I tend to float off with facebook or emails or the latest twitter!<br />Over recent weeks I have had a few 'signs ' to check in and keep an eye on what im doing or life will pass me by.<br />Was sick for a few weeks and obviously not processing life as well as could be expected. Then last week I watched the movie Australia. I found a wonderful message in that movie - Hugh jackman "drover" says to nic kidman who was trying to prevent the little aboriginal boy (sorry cant remember his name) from going walkabout - you have to let him go, otherwise he wont have his story to tell. he needs his story. and continued with the explanation. <br />But it got me thinking and this is what i would like you to ponder too.<br />What is your story? Do you like your story? What do you want your story to say after its all said and done...in some ways its like a eulogy but its an active one - one you can change all the time in the future but once something has been done -its permanent and its on the page. Not that theres anything wrong with that but if you really want to have the life you want - get thinking about what your story is that will be told. theres nothing like the present!<br />til next time - hopefully alot quicker!<br />-xx-Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-50821490637702529362009-01-25T20:31:00.002+11:002009-01-25T20:33:00.952+11:00Ritual…...Today I had the honour and blessing of being chosen to be a godparent to one of my lifelong friends daughters.<br />What was interesting today though is that as I sat in church and recited the “I Do’s” and the “We Will’s” I looked around the church and realised that is all people were doing – reciting the words. They had no passion behind what they were saying and I even noticed some were busy doing other activities – looking at someone, picking up something, attending to their outfit; which made me think they then have no conscious intention behind what they are saying either.<br />This brought me to the conclusion that people’s understanding of rituals, their faith and these ceremonies needs a massive overhaul. Yes I admit I was saying the words but within myself I questioned really and truly what my faith was and whether I was being true to myself by agreeing to some of the statements read out by the priest.<br />My main objective for today was to support my friend and truly accept the responsibility of being a godparent for her daughter. With this responsibility though I believe that it doesn’t mean I have to totally agree with all that the religion advocates but that I support her in the understanding of her faith and questions she may have. Truly I believe a godparent is more that of a life support person who helps the spirit on their current journey on this earth. It is holistic and as my friend pointed out she chose us as she believed we were appropriate role models.<br />I truly support my goddaughter and her family and do as required within the framework to accept this role but what I note is of importance is that I understand the role of the ceremony no matter what the denomination of faith or religion is and that I am not just completing the ritual “just because” that is how it is……<br />Food for thought…..Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-67848225819837580602009-01-11T23:05:00.002+11:002009-01-11T23:09:14.550+11:00Ostara Health now on facebookHappy New Year!<br />Yes I am a bit tardy in welcoming the new year on here.

Its not that I haven’t had much to say but more the time to sit down and write it down!<br />So the post today will cover a few different thought directions…..<br /><br />Firstly a reminder of the next HEAL YOUR LIFE workshops and study groups.<br />2009 first dates:<br />2 day workshop: 7th and 8th February, 2009 Werribee area<br />10 week study course commences first term 2009 around the same date – will clarify when booking.<br />Please email me for bookings and more information!<br /><br />SUMMER SOLSTICE this SUNDAY 21st December, 2009.<br />I have decided to celebrate this with my nearest and dearest this year. I have decided that it is important to introduce these concepts to family and friends that would not normally be aware of these yearly events and re-introduce them to these age old rituals and traditions.<br /><br />The summer solstice is a festive day of joy and happiness. It is one of the great solar festivals and celebrates the peak of Summer. It is the longest day of the year when the great Sun stands proudly at his highest point in the sky.<br /><br />The summer solstice is about embracing creativity and celebrating it with mother earth. In some ways it’s a releasing of that which we don’t need anymore and embracing and focusing on that which we want to CREATE and bring into our lives! I have decided to encourage people to Welcome 2009 by coming to such an event. It is not so important if these people come to the solstice with no specific intention for next year or putting closure to certain energy for this year – what is important is that there is intention to come. That’s a step in the right direction. Of course if people are able to be specific and co-creative with Mother Nature their lives will be all the more better for it.<br /><br />So you can celebrate with your own summer solstice by having intention of thought on Sunday to that which you want to create and to celebrate all that is Summer – flowers, colours, smells and decorations!<br /><br />I will finish this topic with a wonderful quote from the OSHO ZEN TAROT –<br />“Creativity is the quality that you bring to the activity that you are doing. It is an attitude, and inner approach – how you look at things…It makes no difference what particular form your creativity takes – it can be painting or singing, planting a garden or making a meal. The important thing is to be open to what wants to be expressed through you. Remember that we don’t possess our creations; they do not belong to us. True creativity arises from a union with the divine, with the mystical and the unknowable. Then it is both a joy for the creator and a blessing to others!”<br /><br />HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE!<br /><br />Finally, over recent weeks I have had an overwhelming urge to talk about Karma. We all have some concept of Karma but the interesting point that I have had a realisation about is that I am not in control of asserting someone else’s Karma that I believe has done wrong to me. My old way of thinking was that Ok someone had done wrong by me so therefore I had to see Karma come back around whether it be delivered in some form that related to me or that I was able to clearly see that they had been “paid back” in some way for what they had done to me. <br /><br />I am unsure what it was that instigated the shift in my thinking about this subject but I realised that it WAS NONE OF MY BUSINESS! I didn’t have to know whether Karma was in effect. Karma may not even occur in this lifetime in relation to a certain misdemeanour. All I know now is that I trust the process of life and so therefore whatever happens to others is there business and Karma. I don’t have to be aware of it to work. It’s going to be working anyway. <br /><br />What I need to know is simple – If I live my life with the purest of intentions, with unconditional love and trust in myself and own inner knowing then I will be ok! Karma will be looking after me and that’s all I need to worry about!<br /><br />One more final! I am gathering expressions of interest for pre-natal mothers/pregnancy support groups. They will be run in the west side of Melbourne and will be similar to mothers groups just with the little ones inside rather than out and preparing mentally, physically and spiritually with other mothers and ourselves for the wonderful experience that lies ahead. This is a time we need to embrace the wonderful role we have to play and take back the power we have in being female and a mother and undertaking this wonderful event. Contact me now.<br /><br />Til next time! Hopefully sooner than this time!<br />-xx-Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-90388898205722186832008-11-19T00:00:00.006+11:002008-11-19T00:21:18.726+11:00It's Not Personal....Today's post comes from a recurring thought today that I had come into my mind.<br />I think most of us when some type of issue, conflict, problem and even apparent rejection arises, it is taken on board as personal. That the person has done whatever the instance is on purpose with intent to harm and hurt us.<br />I think the relevation that is of importance is that it is only ever personal and of harm and hurt if YOU/WE make it personal!<br />If we were to step back from whatever the incident is that has occurred - it can be clearly seen that the person this relates to has their OWN issues as to why they have reacted this way to you and has their own circumstances they are dealing with, this accounts for their behaviour to us which may have most likely been taken PERSONALLY.<br />If we truly believe that it IS personal and an attack upon our character and can see no other way- then I ask that you still step back but then look at yourself....The issue is only personal again because you've made it, but that you are still not able to shake it and shift it means that it has pressed a nerve. Thats ok - but its still not a personal attack from someone else. We now need to take responsibility that it is our sensitivity and the issue that we need to work on ourselves. we would not have felt attacked if we werent already feeling vulnerable about the issue - it would have held no relevance and rolled off our back.<br /><br />I am not at all excusing bad behaviour such as shouting, swearing, acting badly but the content that is involved is the essence of this discussion.<br />You can only ever control your reaction to a situation. Therefore choose whether it is positive or negative and choose whether to take it personally or at least learn from the encounter!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-81388252621280093812008-11-06T13:33:00.001+11:002008-11-06T13:36:39.449+11:00Happy Birthday To Me!<span style="color:#6600cc;">Yes today is my birthday! I used to love birthdays! We had so much celebration for them. I always shared my birthday with my cousins and my grandad on one side of the family and my aunty on the other side of the family. I loved it and it always felt like I was celebrating for at least a week.<br />Though over recent years I haven’t really enjoyed birthdays – some may say that it was because I was getting older and maybe that is the case but I also realised that I used to love the fact that people were celebrating me!<br />This then has made me reflect…I’m going to enjoy my birthdays again! Not because I want people to celebrate me but I’m going to CELEBRATE ME!!<br />Yep that’s right. Every year on my birthday from this point I am going to enjoy being ME! Enjoy who I am! Enjoy and celebrate the person that I am and the journey I am having here on earth as this person!<br />It doesn’t matter who wishes me Happy Birthday or who gives me presents because I will be in such a celebration mode of giving to myself that their blessings are a bonus.<br />So my birthday list to myself this year will be a massage, a slice of my favourite cake and a scrumptious vegetarian meal with those people near and dear to me.<br /><br />I hope your next birthday you celebrate and give to yourself too!<br /><br />So Happy “Birth” Day to ME!!!</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-54229970360941954122008-11-01T22:19:00.006+11:002008-11-03T23:32:29.274+11:00Colour Therapy<span style="color:#999999;">Over recent weeks I have again been drawn to the way in which colour impacts upon my life and how I use it daily.

Listen to the words...think of the words that you are singing...or what song do you hang out to hear on the radio or have on repeat on your player!<br />This is an insight into your current situation. It gives you the answers you are looking for without even realising it.<br />Over the last few weeks I have not been able to go without my music for longer than an hour whether it be at home or in the car. In particular a few songs have been played over and over and the reflections they have given me in to current situations have been spot on.<br />So take the time to concentrate on your song of the moment and how it relates to your situation. If you cant connect the relevance straight away - write the words down or find them on the net and it will all be illuminated before your eyes....<br /><br />I would love to hear of anyones situations and experiences they have had of this...or even after reading this post how it highlighted any current songs and situations.<br /><br />Happy Listening!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-74496876337119621142008-10-13T11:45:00.002+11:002008-10-13T11:55:52.619+11:00Full Moon - Endings!This Wednesday night is another full moon.<br />I know you are all thinking full moon's aren't positive.

As I've spoken about before I like to receive or go with signs that I have gotten from the universe. But maybe its time I just went with my intuition and the guiding force of the universe and consciousness.<br />Today i have had the overwhelming repetition of the theme - Forgiveness. It has so much more depth of meaning than we actually delegate to it. We are very superficial with its meaning.<br />FORGIVENESS is a major theme in Louise Hay's work. It is a major task and issue that underlies so much of the essence of our problems and hurdles that we find difficult to overcome.<br />During the week you are all aware that I was focused upon the anniversary of my grandmother's death. What revelation came to me this week was not at all what i was expecting.<br />I realised that I had not forgiven my grandmother for leaving me last year. You may be questioning why i would have the need to forgive someone that had passed over but its quite simple.<br />Forgiveness has nothing to do with whoever we are forgiving! these people who we are supposedly "not forgiving" probably dont even realise in half the cases that we have an issue with them. We are the ones carrying around the backpack (as call it) of resentment. Can they see it?? No. But we can definitely feel the burden of it.<br />So back to Grandma. Its not relevant whether she is here in spirit or not. what is relevant is the backpack full of anger and resentment that I continue to put on every morning that she is not here.<br />But the insight came during the week...if we believe in the philosophies of metaphysics and even the mind-body connection then Grandma has responsibility in this situation. I could not change any of the circumstances that surrounded Grandma's death - nor could anyone in our family for that matter or the medical profession. Everyone did the most they could do within the situation.<br />Therefore what good does it do holding onto the anger and resentment. Only that it will eventually eat away at me and I will be the one with the illness - not Grandma or anyone else.<br />There in essence explains forgiveness. <u>It is about forgiving the situation so that you can move on. </u><br />I know that it has been difficult for me to move on as I thought that if I kept wishing her back or that I kept trying to change the scenario in my mind then everything would go back to "normal" but it cant and the only way for me to move forward was to forgive Grandma for leaving us when we thought that her journey on earth hadnt finished or that selfishly we needed her more here on earth.<br />Releasing the anger and resentment doesnt mean that I miss her any less. (a) <em><span style="color:#ff0000;">"I accept my loved one's passing"</span></em><br />Therefore in the context of your own situations and those that have done wrong by you - it does not, as Lousie Hay would say<u> "condone their behaviour"</u> it just releases your energy to them and the event.<br />If you want to be really pro-active send them unconditional love! or as i say lots of pink love hearts and bubbles! But thats another topic to post!<br /><br />Sometimes I will put an affirmation (a) to use for the situation or theme.

I kept thinking to myself - what relevance did grandma have to my business, shes not really connected - so i cant really speak about her. But it came to me......</div><br /><div>Grandma is one of the reasons for my business. Not because she developed it, not because she told me to do it, not because she had even been involved in it at all. </div><br /><div>She relates to my business because she encouraged me to be ME! </div><div></div><div>She always had a belief in me that I was and was going to be successful no matter what I did. It was like "of course your doing that". She didnt pander to my needs or fuss over me like I was always right, it was a different approach - a knowingness that she had.</div><br /><div>She also relates to my business because she role-modelled the way to approach life as a woman both through work and raising children. It was her essence that I know I have 'to get on with the task at hand'.</div><br /><div>I am so grateful that I chose her for a grandmother (along with all the other wonderful and powerful female role models I continue and have had in my life thus far). Grandma taught me so much in life and still continues to do so in death without knowing so at the time.</div><br /><div>I still hope and wish that she's just away for a while...that I'll eventually get a phone call or she'll just drop by. I still can’t believe she is gone and that we didn’t get to speak just one last time. They say it gets easier as the days go by, but I’m still not feeling it. I want the days to stop so that the memory of her doesn’t fade.<br />Im missing her more than words can describe and writing this doesnt even scratch the surface for all that I feel inside.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>On the day that Grandma had her first stroke (4 days before she left this earth) I was actually consciously thanking those people and parts of my life that I am grateful for. </div><div></div><div>I know for the past year I have been angry and upset to even consider anything I am grateful for, what if something horrible happens again? I know it is something that I have to get past - so my message out of this post is - <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><u>BE GRATEFUL</u></strong></span>. Let those you love, the experiences you have - whether they be perceived as good or bad, the relatives, the friends and even those people you feel negative emotions toward. Be grateful for everything and consciously say it aloud or write it down. </div><div></div><div>If its only today that you do it then you have done more than yesterday. Those people dont have to know as the universe will but I'm sure they would love to hear those words if you were able to share it with them.</div><div>I am not saying this just because my Grandma has passed over but for the fact that this is an area in our lives that we tend to neglect and that we need to be more conscious of - if only for a moment a day. The return of energy will be much higher than the investment you made for that one moment.</div><div></div><br /><div>I am so grateful for everything that Grandma bought into my life and I am eternally grateful that we were able to cross paths in this lifetime.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Love to you always Grandma Veale</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-22985697515486928342008-09-29T14:41:00.002+10:002008-09-29T15:00:58.928+10:00New Moon WishToday is the day to wish upon your dreams! Put it out there to the universe! Dont hold back! And definitely don't put out into the universe what you don't want!<br />At 6.12pm (E.S.T) is the moment you can state exactly what you would like to order from the universe and it will come true to some degree.<br />You may think this quite kooky of me to believe but it DOES work! I have so many things arrive when I have consciously "wished" on the new moon. My daughter is a biggy! She was conceived within the month of completing a new moon wish in Septmber 2006 (with a whole heap of other factors as evidence that would support this being connected to the new moon wish), I have also wished upon prosperity and money, circumstances I want to come about and health related issues - there are alot to list.<br />Yasmin Boland the astrologer speaks with expertise on this subject and I have listed her link to assist you with making your new moon wish.<br />The Process is below:<br />* Decide on your Wishes or Intentions for the near future.<br />* Be as specific or vague as you want to be<br />* Write them down - either on a sheet of paper with a pen, or with coloured pens, pencils and so on. The more energy you invest, the better your results are likely to be. <span style="color:#ff0000;">Red is seen to encourage to show the universe your exact intentions - so you may want to write in red</span><br />* Read them out to the Universe then either bury or burn your list, or set it aside so you can check it this time next month, to see how your wishes worked out.<br />***Get on with your week, safe in the knowledge that you've expressed your wishes to the Universe. Do all you can to make them come true.<br />(<a href="http://www.yasminboland.com/nmw.htm">http://www.yasminboland.com/nmw.htm</a>)<br /><br />So the world is in your hands - what do you want to come into your life??<br />Blessing you with all the wishes you may wish upon tonights new moon<br />Love and BlessingsUnknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-62722549903697239902008-09-25T15:08:00.003+10:002008-09-25T15:26:53.414+10:00Let Your Light Shine!I've had an interesting 24 hours of self awareness. Small events can trigger such wonderful insight! I was asked to attend a gathering last night in relation to an exciting new project. Whilst there the project made sense and I felt that it was appropriate for me to be involved though had to have some discussions. So that all felt fairly normal...the insight occurred as has been usual in the last few years while I was having a shower to wind down. I checked with the angel cards and they gave me fairly expected answers....so i jumped in the shower.<br />The insight that came over me were in numerous forms. Firstly I felt the huge desire to loofah my skin?? why?? As I see it - it was the shedding of my skin - like a snake shedding their skin - a new beginning, getting rid of the old! Continually while I was showering the thoughts and words "<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">don't</span> play small" from the quotation - Let your light shine, were played over in my mind and all of this in the cleansing environment of the shower.<br />Yes I am supposed to follow on with this project if these signs are anything to go by!<br />I have written the excerpt below for you to read - it is magnificent and needs to be taken notice of and adopted.<br /><u>Let Your Light Shine</u><br />Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.<br />Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.<br />It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.<br />We ask ourselves:<br />“Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?”<br />Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.<br /><strong>Your playing small <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">doesn</span>’t serve the world.<br />There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking<br />So that other people won’t feel insecure around you.</strong><br />We are all meant to shine, as children do.<br />We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us.<br />It’s not just in some of us; it is in everyone.<br /><strong>And as we let our own light shine,<br />We unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.</strong><br />As we are liberated from our own fear,<br />Our presence automatically liberates others.<br /><br />- Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love<br /><br />I now know I cannot stand back and await for other people to be on the same page as me - I must continue reading and if people want to continue reading also then we may stay on the same page but I cant stop the wonderful story ahead of me.<br />So I ask that everyone else be mindful of this also. Where does your light need to shine and please <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">don't</span> dim it for other people!<br /><span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">I'm</span> off to find out my next step!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-88541455377329269812008-09-18T23:09:00.006+10:002008-09-18T23:49:26.450+10:00Ostara Health - A meaningWe are always presented with the signposts if only we look out for them...I had been thinking of outlining to you all the understanding behind the name of my business and the definition...but as usual "sat" on it - basically meaning I left it in the back of my mind and didnt action it. Until the signs appeared - and for this issue they appeared straight away. It doesnt happen all the time but this time it did. I had just put together this website and went to the newsagent to have a browse and see if there were any new magazines that I hadnt picked up yet for the month - today it was the spellcraft magazine which I dont always pick up as a "usual" for me. On the bottom corner of the cover "Shine for Ostara" - did that whack me right between the eyes. Gotta love those forceful affirmations from the universe that we're doing the right thing! In it an article about Ostara - The Spring equinox (day and night equal) which is coming up on 23rd September. Then I had an email from someone who I had given the link to this page wondering what "ostara" actually meant? Well I used to go for 3 signs from the universe. I think I now get the hint on 2!<br />Ostara means re-birth, growth and fertility. The Doreen Virtue meanings include "signifies pregnancy, involved in a successful child conception, your desire will fully manifest in the springtime, your new idea or venture will be successful! Its an opportune time to make life changes!"<br /><u>Meaning for my business:</u><br />I was pregnant with my daughter and prior to her immediate conception I kept getting the Ostara Goddess Card in Doreen Virtues card deck. She then stopped appearing for a little while after I became pregnant but then started again when I was thinking of starting my private practice. Thus the reason for the name of my business - both sentimental but also relevant. There was no looking back when this card arrived.<br /><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">Ostara is the teutonic Goddess of fertility and springtime.</span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">Call upon OSTARA to increase your fruitfulness, fertility, or to help you embark on new ventures</span><br /><br />Ostara is relevant how - its time for spring cleaning, getting rid of the old and bringing in the new! With this in mind it was only appropriate that the universe gave me a nudge and Ostara Health's online beginning occurred at the begining of her season- tell me that is coincidental?? I dont think so!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023745129555325403.post-38633422258151792772008-09-17T15:34:00.000+10:002008-09-17T16:02:23.697+10:00Ostara Health is ONLINE!Hello,<br />Welcome to my website! I have had enough messages from the universe to kick my behind into gear and get going with this!<br />The final straw was watching Oprah today - specifically to see Louise Hay and her discussions about Healing Your Life and attracting the life you want! Well my intentions will not go anywhere if I don't put them into action!<br />I have had in the last month or so a couple of people with blogs advertising their business so I felt what better way to get my message out there with my business - Ostara Health and the Heal Your Life (HYL) Workshops.<br />I will use this forum to advertise upcoming workshops both The HYL and my Gaia blessingway ceremonys. Which I will update with more info about both later.<br />Please pass this website onto whoever you know - if only that they open this link, it will open an awareness that will raise the vibration and awareness on this planet.<br />This website will discuss everything I am passionate about! Please leave comments if there is something in particular you want to discuss.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
