You Are Good Enough! by Joginder Singh Bola
Joginder is a Director of Tree of Life and CoEditor of Tree of Life Magazine. He gives talks and runs workshops on self-empowerment and holistic business success. Hear him speak at the Tree of Life Festival on 11 & 12 October 2014 (see backcover). I’ve noticed in my own life that it’s much easier for me to sing the praises of other people’s work than it is my own. I find it easy to tell everyone how good everyone else is but when it comes to my own work I find it much more difficult. An old programme of, ‘I’m not good enough’, kicks in and I end-up sabotaging myself. My mind is even telling me now that I’m not good enough to write this article! When I asked Markéta recently if she could interview Lorna Byrne live on stage in front of 250 people her own version of “I’m not good enough” came-up initially too. But once she got back to her centre and alignment she said YES! Many people have similar self-sabotaging patterns. So how can we overcome them? Here are ways that have worked for me: 1. Fill yourself up first – this might seem selfish but it’s not. You can’t help someone else if you’re empty yourself. So fill your own cup with things that up-lift you and then from that place your cup will be overflowing with helping those around you. Before writing this article I had a great Easter weekend celebrating Markéta’s birthday and spending good quality time with family and friends. This morning I went for a sunrise walk in nature, did yoga, meditation and had a green juice. And I’ve just had a delicious healthy raw food lunch prepared by Markéta’s mum! 2. Expect miracles – The week before the spring Tree of Life Festival we were very busy and were tempted to skip our regular yoga classes. But we decided to go in the end because we realised that when we are the most stressed it’s the most important time to take a break. So we went and had a good class of yoga and felt just great. On the way out of the health club I saw ‘£30’ on the ground. There was nobody around and so I assumed it must have been divinely offered to us. When we got home there was a driving fine letter for £60 waiting for us which should have arrived the day before but had got delayed because the envelope was damaged. The fine was only ‘£30’ if you paid it early! What a great example of a friendly universe that’s always taking care of you if you take care of yourself. Imagine, the fine could have arrived the day before or we could have skipped the yoga, carried on working and not found the heavenly sent money and had a very different out of
balance day…. I have never so joyfully paid a driving fine before! 3. You are the creator of your life – We went to the fruit & veg markets last week and saw our friend Colin. He stands out from all the other people at the market because he is always happy and smiling like a joyful Buddha. A warmth just extends from him and he’s lovely to be around. We hadn’t seen him for a while and so I asked him how he was – he gave me a big smile and then said some of the wisest words I have ever heard: ‘I could complain but I choose not to’. He reminded me that we always have a choice. A choice to either be in the place of the ‘poor me’ victim or to be in the place of self-empowered being and bringing joy to your work like Colin does. 4. Realize your gift to the world – 6 years ago when I stopped working as a solicitor and started running the Tree of Life full-time my mind was telling me that I should stay in a secure employed job instead. If I had listened to the mind then the last 6 years of Tree of Life events which have helped 1000’s of people would never have happened and I would have spent the last 6 years pushing bits of paper in an office instead. I remind myself everyday how grateful I am to be doing things that really matter to me and that make a difference to others. 5. The power of NOW – My mind is saying don’t write this article now – you’re not good enough to write yet. You have to wait until you’re good enough before you can write it – or until you have a deadline and are forced to write it! This is another trick of the mind that leaves you postponing your dreams until some future distant time which never comes. Awake from this hypnotic sleep and take action now however small. You from your heart, know that you are more than enough – in the now and always. 6. Ask for help – I have often attended other people’s workshops to help me get past any blocks in my life. When we struggle alone it can feel almost impossible to move ahead. When we reach out and connect with others, our strength is renewed and together we can move mountains. 7. Awaken to Life! When you wake-up each morning alive – jump for joy! You have been blessed with another Day of Life! This is cause for a huge celebration! You have been given the greatest gift of all – life itself. When you see how precious it is you don’t want to waste it on a mundane existence of just getting by. You want to leave the world a better place for you having lived. I love the movie ‘Ground Hog Day’. In the movie the character lives the same day over and over again. Each time he wakes-up he tries living the day a different way – he begins with selfish and self-centred ways of being in the world until by the end of the movie he is helping everyone he can. Make each day the greatest gift you can for you and those around you!

Nourishment from Living Foods by Dr. Brian Clement
Dr. Brian Clement has spent more than three decades studying nutrition and natural healthcare. He has received graduate degrees in both naturopathic medicine and nutritional science. Since 1980, he has directed the Hippocrates Health Institute in Florida – the complementary healing centre that was voted ‘Number 1 medical spa in the world’. Brian has conducted countless seminars, lectures, and educational programs, travelling extensively to more than 25 countries around the globe. Brian has also written numerous books in which he explores the various aspects of health, spirituality, and natural healing. The role of nutrition has become severely diminished in most of our lives. Pressures and stresses - social, work - related, family and otherwise - have taken precedence, reducing the importance of food quality. When pondering the role nutrients play in the maintenance and preservation of humankind, it becomes abundantly evident that without uniformly prudent choices we suffer as a whole. When an individual goes many weeks without consuming proper fare, they actually die. The critical nature of nutrition is crystallized in this scenario. If we halfheartedly choose things to chew and swallow, we enter a mode of partial starvation, making us vulnerable to a wide variety of diseases. Malnourishment is notorious for manifesting everything from scurvy to pellagra, but it can cause even greater damage. There have long been many reports from renowned universities and government organizations stating: “Malnutrition is a major cause of catastrophic diseases such as cancer and lifestyle-related concerns like cardiovascular and diabetic disorders.” Couple the pressures of modern living with the addictive qualities of staple “comfort foods” — sweet, caffeinated drinks and heavily processed foods loaded with sugar and animal fats — and it is no wonder so many are hooked on the standard Western diet. Considering the toxic burden of such poor food choices, it is also no wonder our bodies are on the way to ruin. Even the now-abundant “nutrition stores” are purveyors of countless pseudo health foods. These products are based more on slick
marketing than health-building nourishment. Food industry executives prey on prevailing addictions to fats and sugars by changing the names of these familiar substances on the ingredient lists of their product offerings. There seem to be endless ways to profit from this sort of trickery. The consumers of these products are “scratching an old itch” without even knowing it. They feel justified to indulge in these items because they are “organic,” “raw” or “natural.” These buzzwords seem to be green lights for the subconscious. If people are truly honest with themselves they will realize something that tastes just like a familiar junk food is probably not health-building, regardless of whether it says “organic & raw.”
community gardens supplant toxic pollution; heightened awareness supersedes confusion and sadness; a new way of life blossoms from the bold, yet simple, act of proper food selection.
Despite these shady practices, and the addictive tendencies they serve, there is an ever-growing sector of humanity that wants to get back to truth and the basics. A mentor once told me, “If you look at your plate at the end of your meal and determine how soiled it is, there is no better indicator as to the quality of what you have just consumed.”
• The most nourishing food on land is leafy sprouts.
If your choice is raw vegetables, sprouts, fruits, and whole raw nuts and seeds, you practically do not have to clean the china. Once cooked, though, even these healthy foods will stain your plate. Their delicate health-building qualities quickly diminish with the heat of cooking. Boiling, poaching, baking, frying, sautéing - any of these processes will result in a messy plate and an even larger mess for your digestive system to clean up.

Unfortunately, even those who attempt to be mindful in the process of choosing food quite often get caught up in philosophy and theology surrounding cuisine. Too often, they hear, “Cooking makes it easier to digest. More nutrients are created after heating. Blending makes it more digestible.” These misguided notions obfuscate the physics that govern nutrition and have no bearing on reality. Every creature on earth except humans - and the animals we have domesticated and displaced - naturally eats a 100% raw food diet.
In this seminar, Dr. Clement will address the half century of work on disease and longevity conducted at the renowned Hippocrates Institute. Cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, MS, ALS, Parkinsons, fibromyalgia and more can be altered, prevented, and at times conquered with phyto-chemicals, antioxidants and other nutrients consumed on a diet of organic vegan living food. Dr. Clement will explain the basic science and extraordinary mechanisms that bring about a heightened and balanced immunity. Hundreds of thousands worldwide share enthusiasm in their greatly improved health by utilizing unprocessed green foods. One of the exceptional benefits acquired from this powerful cuisine is longevity.
Nourishment begins with finding your purpose, relentlessly pursuing it and finally soaking up the passion it provides. This ethos manifests in strong and capable people who will not concede to second best. These individuals see life as an opportunity to progress rather than a sentence to toil through. Fueling your very cells with fresh, organic, plant-based, living foods is an essential process for those who wish to raise themselves from the ashes of an ill humanity. With distrust at the helm of the human psyche, it is no wonder that confusion and sadness reign supreme. When people doubt themselves, they doubt all. When people make conscious and pure choices, they develop self-respect and internal trust that spreads among those they touch. It is time we become serious about food. The basis of this transformation is realizing that food is not a recreational activity. Our kitchens should be our fueling stations, not our amusement parks. When individuals embrace this knowledge and utilize the wisdom of correct cuisine, they spread that goodness from themselves to the very earth they live on. Thriving health replaces disease;
From this moment on, ask yourself this viable question every day: “Do I deserve the best nourishment available?” Until the answer is a consistent and constant, “yes,” keep pursuing a higher quality avenue of change. Combine this with the relevant tools of self-exploration and improvement of mind-set. This, and only this, will lead you to a full, healthy and happy life, free of discontent and disease. The three most nourishing varieties of food on the planet are all green foods:
• The most nourishing from fresh water is algae. • The most nourishing food from the sea, of course, is sea vegetables. Sprouts: buckwheat, fava bean greens, peas, sunflower, sweet potato greens, wheatgrass, etc. Sea vegetables: arame, dulse, hijiki, nori, Pacific or Atlantic kelp, etc.

‘Markéta is the Jamie Oliver of raw food.’ Lynne McTaggart, international bestselling author of ‘The Field’ and editorial director of ‘What Doctors Don’t Tell You’ – one of the world’s most highly praised health newsletters.
The Sexy Raw Food Goddess The Sexy Raw Food Goddess‘ vision is to empower people to nurture, nourish and celebrate all their senses
Ah, this Life is Delicious! by Markéta Bola Markéta, The Sexy Raw Food Goddess, is a natural nutritionist and raw living food chef of the Tree of Life Cosmic Café who runs raw food classes, workshops and dining experiences in the UK. Recently I read this splendid story about an old Zen monk who was on his deathbed: “The last day had come, and the old Zen monk declared that that evening he would be no more. So followers, disciples, friends started coming. He had many lovers. They all started coming. From far and wide people gathered. One of his old disciples, when he heard that the master was going to die, ran to the market. Somebody asked, “The master is dying in his hut, why are you going to the market?’ The old disciple said, “I know that my master loves a particular type of cake, so I am going to purchase the cake.’ It was difficult to find the cake, because now it had gone out fashion, but by the evening somehow he managed. He came running with the cake. And everybody was worried – it was as if the master was waiting for someone. He would open his eyes and look, and close his eyes again. And when this disciple came, he said, ‘Okay, so you have come. Where is the cake?’ The disciple produced the cake – and he was very happy that the master asked about the cake. Dying, the master took the cake in his hand, but his hand was not trembling. Somebody asked, ‘You are so old and just on the verge of dying. The last breath is soon to leave you, but your hand is not trembling.’
raw living food for five years now and hardly looked back or missed anything. I have overcome gradually most of my cravings and emotionally driven comfort eating too. My major childhood chronic illness has been successfully stabilized without regression for about 18 years now. And I do, with pleasure and love while preparing it, treat myself to a real raw food cake from time to time! But then I started writing a new recipe down for a raw jelly cake full of strawberries and chia seeds. I realized that emotionally I was connecting with my granny whose been in spirit for almost 20 years and my mum who was visiting soon to celebrate my 40th birthday. My memories came back of being very young, the authentic taste of the strawberry flavour, the smell of the room, the noise of so many people greeting each other and the look of this particular cake that I hadn’t thought of for ages! When my mum arrived I welcomed her with a piece of my new raw strawberry jelly cake. She liked it and then she looked at me with a sparkle in her eyes. I knew she remembered. We talked about my childhood and about her mother - pulling the threads of these loving, fun, feminine experiences we had together. When we’re experiencing ourselves being ‘out of balance’ and ‘out of the bigger picture’ - that we’re all a part of (we’re part of everything and everything is part of us) - then we’re literally ‘telILL-ing ourselves out of the wholeNESS’ – the holy-ness that is within us = creating illness.
Simply ‘being FULL-filled by ‘what is’ here and now, the presence, the oneNESS’ = creates fullness (and this is a big one for most of us, certainly for me personally) - ACCEPTANCE is the key here - accepting that we’re all ‘complete and The master said, ‘I never tremble, because there beautiful’ human beings and loving ourselves to is no fear. My body has become old, but I am still our fullest potential. Love is love, we are love and young, and I will remain young even the body love is us! is gone.’ This week could be called ‘the turning week of Then he took a bite, started munching the cake. my life-wheel’. It started with my birthday; I And then somebody asked, ‘What is your last invited only family and closest friends instead of message, Master?

I then had 3 wonderful raw food events: Even death is irrelevant. The next moment is a raw food experience dinning evening, teaching meaningless. If you can be in this moment, this my level 2 sexy raw food course and presenting a present moment, this presentness, the plenitude, talk & demo to a group of 45 women new to raw then only can you love.” (from ‘The book of food. The week then ended with me interviewing woman’ by Osho) Lorna Byrne about love live on stage in front of over 240 people! It was a truly life-changing Ah, after reading this story my heart just burst experience that made me realize how we’re all with deep gratitude for both life and death, and more powerful and capable than we can possibly my eyes were wet yet smiling. I’ve been eating imagine.
The last question I asked Lorna was “Does love have to hurt?” – she replied very quietly “Yes”, when we love someone deeply and we loose them it hurts and it can hurt even more when its unexpected. It can also hurt when there’s an unfortunate misunderstanding between people who love each other but find it hard to get the courage to connect, forgive and clear the space to re-open to love again.
Recipe: Flowering Mousse with Spinach My mum came to visit us for a week during an eventful Tree of Life time. After a few days she started being more relaxed and spontaneous in my raw kitchen (without hobs and stoves) and prepared some sensational dishes. She saw me give a talk and demo on raw food for 45 women where I had an ‘OMG moment’ forgetting the main carob ingredient for my chocolaty mousse. I made jokes while looking for some replacement and saw a big bowl of green spinach! It turned out to be surprisingly yummy and fitted well with the other dishes. Since then my mum has been blending a variety of ingredients together and made some lovely alternatives for our morning breakfast just like this recipe. 1 small ripe avocado 3 bananas 1/2 ripe mango 150g organic spinach 1/2 inch fresh ginger Mix well all ingredients ideally in a high-speed blender. In other blenders you might need to add just a bit of water to get it running but still keep it as a ‘mousse’ instead of a ‘smoothie’ consistency. Decorate the mousse with pieces of avocado and mango plus some edible flowers e.g. primrose (Primula vulgaris) from your garden.

Silver Spheres – A new methodology of healing by Moira Bush
with the new frequencies of light healing. There were a few essences that also resonated with the information coming through and we now know of 7 colour bottles that assist practitioners during therapy sessions. Silver Spheres system of healing was first taught on 11 May 2013 in England to a group of 20 people who had absolutely no idea what the healing system was offering, they said they just felt they had to be there. Some were professional therapists, some were medically trained and a few had never attended any spiritual or therapy courses before. All wanted change in their lives. The Silver Spheres offer a new method in dealing with our issues. In the past we have had to retell our stories many times over and layer-bylayer cleared the beliefs and habits that kept us in limit, lack and loss of power. The challenge with re-telling the story is that every time you put any focus on it, it continues to grow creating more layers for clearing and needing even more therapy sessions. By telling your story over and over again, you are adding energy that keeps the story alive in your consciousness and perpetuate the cycle of cause and effect. During a Silver Sphere session, you have the opportunity to not only remove the symptoms, but also the story - the root cause of your issues. You will be guided through a set of specific questions by the Practitioner to establish why the story was created in the first place. If you feel you no longer have need for this story to be a part of your identity and you no longer desire the dramas of the story to be a part of your life, and you have mastered all of the lessons the story offered you, at that moment of surrendering the silver spheres will remove the story. The Spheres also activate dormant DNA programming within you that will allow you to access your soul’s intelligence on how to create a reality that serves the new you. Often those working as therapists have to engage with the client’s energy to ‘read’ the vibrational fields or to ‘listen’ to the dramas and then guide the client through the process of healing, at times leaving the practitioner tired. With the Silver Spheres method of healing, practitioners are encouraged to minimize the time engaging in the client’s story - simply to ask the set of questions to establish why the story was created and then to hold the space allowing the spheres to work through their attuned frequencies.
Colour Mirrors Teacher & Founder of the Silver Spheres system of healing. Her talks and courses inspire you to step up and be the difference, be on purpose and serve from the heart. Since 2003 I have specialised in teaching the Colour Mirrors system internationally. This powerful tool of colour analysis and spiritual colour psychology has initiated deep transformation in my own life and continues to astound me with its ability to enable powerful shifts in the lives of clients and students. I have watched clients arrive for their first session in heaps of despair after years of being stuck, and within sometimes just a few weeks seen how they reclaimed their power and changed their lives. In my own life the teachings of Colour Mirrors moved me from a life based on fear and victimhood, into a life based on authentic power. You could say that I am pretty much ‘sold’ on Colour Mirrors as my therapy and teaching tool. So when I received a vision to bring in a new healing system during December 2012, I resisted. Mostly because I am not a hands-on therapist, preferring to write, counsel and teach. The body stuff to me is uncomfortable and I said as much to spirit - ‘ How on earth do you expect someone like me to bring through a new healing system?’ But the visions continued and I eventually phoned my spiritual mentor Melissie Jolly on the 4th of January 2013 for guidance. Melissie simply said, ‘this is a Metatron healing system and you must bring it through, sit down and write and let the information flow’. I began to write down the visions, the feelings and experimented on a few friends and clients who were happy to be test subjects. The first vision given was of a new spiritual blue-print entering our bodies; the visions of the spheres and rays and how they worked came a few weeks later. All the visions showed an accelerated process on A new methodology of healing how to let go of dense energies and enlighten Round spheres containing Sacred our mind, body and Geometric shapes and Colours, travel heart. through light rays and deliver healing and There was one aspect of transformation for the body, mind, heart and soul. this new healing system that I had clarity on When downloading a new spiritual Blue-Print, from the start.

Clients are encouraged by the Practitioner to communicate and connect with the spheres providing an opportunity to heal themselves. Working with the spheres leaves the Practitioner energised and empowers the clients to begin their own healing process.
Silver Spheres – A new methodology of healing An evening talk with Moira Bush Have you ever considered that the back of your chakra system is a useful tool for energy healing? I most certainly paid no attention to the back of my chakras, having been taught through other energy healing systems to focus only on opening up and balancing the front of the chakras. When guided by Archangel Metatron to bring through and develop a new healing system during December 2012, I had no idea how the healing would work. During its testing phase, spheres popped into the room out of what looked like tunnels of light and exactly what the tunnels of light were and where they originated from was a mystery. As the first 20 people to be attuned to the system began to report on their experiences, we realised that the chakra system in the front expanded away from the body and extended out into spaces and the spheres popped out of them. So that solved the mystery of the light tunnels, it was the extended chakras. However that led to more questions; How did the spheres get into the chakra system? And where did they come from? Why were the backs of the chakras opening up during attunements? You are invited to hear more from the founder, Moira Bush, about the mysteries of this futuristic healing system gifted by the Archangels that plans to speed up our evolution and the process of remembering the power we have to heal our lives.

It is never too late to be what you might have been. - George Eliot
Awaken ToLife & Passionate Living 2 Day Weekend Course with Joginder & Markéta Saturday 26 & Sunday 27 July 2014 It’s as loud as it could be. Everywhere, while going shopping, attending a V-cycle class, singing ‘The Story of My Life’ or watching a squirrel spinning around in the garden: ‘The secret of attraction is loving yourself!’ And loving yourself means loving every single (even wobbly) bit of the self in the mirror and in the reflection of the others - ouch! In fact it’s yummy when we come to a point where it all emerges into one beautiful transcendent experience. Sweet sleep is wonderful until Awakening comes and opens your eyes wide and kisses you eternally. God has no meaning in a mean, self-centred, story-oriented world. Where is meditation there is compassion. Where is compassion there is love. Where is love there is inspired life. Where is inspired life there is awakening. Where is awakening there is a soulful purposeful living merging into oneness. “Overcome your limits to love & live passionately and reveal your purposeful life through a gentle authentic awakening.” The Simple Spiritual Trinity Awareness assignments covered on the weekend: • Deep & divine diving in and within Silent and Active Meditations • Gentle Yoga practice to improve movement and memory functions • Who would you be now in the presence? • Welcome your calling wounds to love them into strengths • Delightful plant based nourishment for longevity and vitality • Conversations on richer relationships
• You as a Sacred & Nurturing De-cluttered Temple • Embrace your Brother/Sisterhood environment • The only life teaching is sharing your authentic self • Elevating the quality of your life is inevitable • Appreciate your presence where you can be a gift for others
Intro price: £97 per ticket (or £147 for two tickets if booked 1 week in advance) Venue: Moseley, Birmingham Joginder & Markéta Bola Joginder & Markéta had been on their individual journeys for many years before they met. They were determined to find true love in relationship. They both sent out their wishes into the Universe and then synchronistically came together. As life-partners and co-teachers they bring passion and inspiration into their teaching to empower anybody who wants to find the greatest freedom for life on all levels. They have been studying and practising Tantra for many years. They completed a 4 year 8 Levels Tantra Master Training with the School of Awakening & Tantra Essence. They have also completed the School for The Work of Byron Katie, have been applying The Teachings of Abraham (The Law of Attraction) in their everyday life and have experienced many other teachings and methods on increasing awareness towards conscious love. ‘Sexual Energy and Spiritual Energy are identical Energy. When you are tuned in, tapped in, turned on – that’s the “turned on”. When Source Energy flows through you, it flows through you. You cannot separate one from the other.‘ Abraham (Esther & Jerry Hicks)
