Last week a friend of mine had a psychic reading and was told, “You’ve resolved all your karma from previous lifetimes. From now on, you are living in a state of instant karma.” Now that’s an interesting concept! Of course, the Westernised / Americanised definition of ‘karma’ (i.e. our highly simplistic view of ‘you hurt me then, I hurt you now’) would leave most self-respecting Buddhists in fits of laughter. Apparently it’s all a bit more complicated than that. And then still other schools of thought (think Neale Donald Walsch) will tell you that there’s no such thing as karma anyway, there’s only Oneness and soul lessons (there’s no bearded old man up in the sky keeping track of everything in the Great Book of Justice).

It’s been… Read More

Past lives are a topic I personally adore (you’re speaking to someone who has a degree in History!), but which I dread bringing up because it’s such a polarising issue: you either believe in them because you’ve in some way experienced them, you’re a grey-area fence-sitter, or you reckon I’m a mung-bean crazy hippy for even suggesting it…. (so why are you still reading? Go on. Hit the Back button… hit the Back button…)

Image found here Guest post by Dr Greg Schreeuwer. One of the greatest contributors to cancer, apart from poor nutrition, electromagnetic radiation and a lack of physical exercise is a mental attitude of ‘all or nothing’. So often, we encounter people or come across people we love who have this specific approach to life…. Read More
