Hope is a beggar
We're brought up to believe that hope is a wonderful thing, indoctrinated through religions and reinforced culturally through the ages through dogma and lack of critical thinking. We need to question more instead of mindlessly repeating words and sentiments and really...
Freedom from Dystopia – Creating a New World (Not Order)
We’ve created a narcissistic society out of the motivation to create one of balanced and healthy self-esteem. Somewhere, it took a turn into one of entitlement and it’s reflected in the fake personas that now exist in the world; seeking perfection externally in an almost androgynous complexion that is woefully compensating for an internal lack.
Creating Our New Norm Out of the Pandemic
Change is very often the very thing we need to get us out of a rut, despite the fact that many people say they hate it. It enables us to try new ways of being or take up new interests.

The Covid-19 crisis has brought up a lot of emotions in people and brought out the best and the worst of human behaviour. We’ve seen people coming together, supporting neighbours and our NHS but we’ve also been witness to a significant amount of anger and injustice...
What does it mean to live consciously?
