Divinely Human

“… we may also lift our hands to touch the edge of our faces and discover, asleep or awake, as animals and divinities, we are human.” – The Stone Canoe We are human, a blending of animal and divine. As in any successful blend the ratio of the components has to be in balance. A car engine is a fine example. To run it requires a blending of air and gas with a spark to set it in motion. Too much gas, the engine floods; too much air the engine sputters. In both cases the engine does not start or does not run smoothly. As animals and divinities, we are human. For this blending to work both of these aspects must be honoured equally. If we live our lives concentrating…

Loving Ways to Deal with Toxic Behaviour

Healing, Personal Development

By Kim Hutchinson Toxic behaviour can zap your positive energy and leave you feeling heartbroken, stressed, angry, drained and even unwell. Knowing how to deal with toxic encounters is the key to peace of mind, good health and happiness. This involves using your heart and soul instead of your head and ego to resolve your emotional injuries. We all live in glass houses. No one is perfect. We all make mistakes. Everyone gets hurt, and hurts others. Knowing that means we all should understand when someone says or does something that hurts us. Unfortunately the ego doesn’t agree. It’s so busy judging others it has no capacity for love. The ego insists on being right, not happy. When your ego is engaged, you play the blame game, and no one…

I Think Therefore I Am

Manifestation, Personal Development

By Steve Clayton We have all encountered Descartes famous line at some time or another and most of us accept it at face value. Our thoughts are proof of our existence. If we truly want to understand the implications of these words we have to expand our awareness of what this implies. Our thoughts do not define us just as individuals; our thoughts define our whole reality. All of creation hinges on how we perceive it. Food is not the most powerful drug The debate over what is the most powerful drug continues on, with food now considered by many to be the most influential and powerful substance we can consume. In reality it comes in second, for it is our thoughts that are the most powerful substance we internalize.…

Life Advice from Archangel Michael

Angels, Personal Development

By Kim Hutchinson Archangel Michael is a powerful protector. He works closely with humanity, and wants us to be safe and strong. Here is some guidance from him to help you on your path. Trust Yourself Be more discerning where others are concerned. Just because someone claims to be altruistic doesn't mean they are not personally motivated. Everyone has a personal agenda (even the angels). You have impeccable senses. Heed them! Do not allow someone else to dilute your wisdom simply because you detected something that they did not. Do not allow anyone else to define how you feel about yourself. No one knows exactly how you feel, so they are not qualified to judge you. Stop allowing others' opinions of you to supplant your own impressions of yourself.…

Love and Compassion

Personal Development, Spirituality

By Steve Clayton Each and every one of us has the capacity for love within us; we just have to remember or be reminded on how to access that love. A simple way to begin remembering is through compassion. Compassion allows us to forgive ourselves or others for simply being human. It is through forgiveness that we allow love to come into ourselves and our lives in greater and greater quantities. Compassion for ourselves and for others is vitally important. Learning to overlook and forgive faults rather than judging them is important for our mental and emotional health. True Love does not judge. True Love is unconditional. The vast majority of humans are motivated by our desire to love and to be loved. This takes up a lot of our…

Learning to Love Yourself

Personal Development, Spirituality

By Steve Clayton Learning to love one’s self is the most important lesson for us to master here in this Earth school, but that can be challenging. We live in a world where we are constantly bombarded with judgments; how we look, where we live, what type of job we have, what kind of car we drive. The list of judgments is endless and, in the vast majority of cases, we are left feeling that we don’t quite measure up, that we are somehow lacking. We are made to feel that the reason we do not measure up is due to something wrong within ourselves. The key to true happiness is freedom from judgment, and that comes from self-love. Loving oneself is grand, but how does one go about achieving…

Overcoming Ego Fear

Personal Development, Spirituality

By Kim Hutchinson Each of us has an ego. It is the part of our consciousness that believes it is separate from others. Our avatars help to enforce the notion of individuality. In truth, however, we are Source dreaming of being human. The ego is blocked from knowing this by a form of spiritual amnesia. That causes us to suffer at times from feeling alone and vulnerable. Here are some techniques to help with the ego's insecurities. Perception of Separation from Source The primary fear the ego faces is feeling cut off from Source. It wants to be sure that it isn’t alone in this world so it monitors everyone around it. During this process, it perceives inequality due to the diversity of life paths. These differences mean there will…
