It doesn’t take much. If we realise that it’s possible to step back in this very moment, to step back out of the thinking mind, out of the morass of conceptualisation and feeling and simply stop and be here, we are free. This first and final step can happen right now, all it takes is the willingness to self-extricate from the streams of thinking. That one singular backward step lands us into vast, infinite and eternal territory of being, where there is nothing but complete freedom and infinite potentiality of expression of that freedom. And, it’s accessible in this moment, right here, right now. There is no journey required in actuality, but we will journey right until the moment this realisation dawns. And then everything changes: seeking ends. What comes next is simply exploration and continued investigation into the vast and eternal mystery that is our true nature, and the integration of all aspects of our being. The end of seeking can never be forced or conceptually reached; it is a clear awakened arising that there never really was a search for something lost. The seeking ends at this point because it is clearly seen that all the worlds of time and space are created out of this one moment, this eternal moment of pure Presence. So, it all begins here … and it all ends here. Now, the thrill of knowing one’s own eternal beingness starts to inform us, awaken us, as we begin to live our lives anew moment to
moment. No longer lost, forever found. Always be here. Together in Joy, Leo Drioli & Enza Vita
awakening one community at a time...

7 Ways A Retreat Will Transform Your Life BY JAYME BARRETT Are you craving adventure, new experiences and fresh energy in your life? Are you tired, uninspired or overwhelmed? Are you in need of healing or time to do whatever your heart desires? If you’re feeling any (or all) of the above, a retreat could be your ticket to happiness and renewal. We’ve all been there. Overloaded with duties at work and home; we find ourselves running in multiple directions. In our busy daily life, much of which is on auto-pilot, it’s important to give ourselves a significant break. Not just a morning yoga class, afternoon nap or a weekend away, but real time to disconnect from everyday responsibilities. We must reconnect with our inner self. A wellness retreat will offer a new perspective, expand your horizons
and bring positive energy into your body, mind and soul. I’ve been a participant as well as a leader of numerous retreats in the last 15 years. I remember in 2007, my mum was very ill. I was completely exhausted (physically and emotionally) from caregiving as well as trying to keep my business and personal life running. It was really difficult to tell my parents I needed a break but I knew I was on the edge of becoming depressed and useless.
So, off I went to take care of myself. During that glorious week of my retreat, I refilled my energy tank and truly returned a new person. I felt renewed and rejuvenated, which allowed me to care for my sweet mom with strength and courage. It was a life saver for me. There are times I’ve gone on retreats and shared “my story.” Other times, I decided to leave behind how I identify myself, which was extremely liberating. Of course, taking a break
from constant phone and internet access allows you to be present with yourself, the beautiful environs and new experiences. When you let go of daily responsibilities for work, companions, kids and parents, you can give yourself the gift of self-care and love. You’ll get off the fast track and re-discover your own rhythm. You’ll also have precious time to reflect on what you want to manifest upon your return home. There are retreats that focus on
every kind of positive life skill in countries all over the world. I’ve been on hiking, yoga, meditation, creativity and chanting retreats to name a few. Sometimes I’ve gone by myself and other times with my sister, a friend or my husband...and every one provided the exact nourishment I needed at the time. Here are 7 ways a Retreat can rejuvenate your body, mind and soul. 1. It's an opportunity to push your reset button. Disconnecting from daily responsibilities and immersing yourself in the present moment allows you to re-fill your energy tank. Having time and space gives you the opportunity to re-think your priorities. 2. You'll bask in a beautiful location & eat delicious food. Since food is such an important part of daily enjoyment, meals will be yummy and use local ingredients. (Vegetarian and vegan options are usually available too!) 3. You'll learn something new or hone skills you’re passionate about. There are retreats that focus on any type of skill or hobby. Whether it’s yoga, meditation, art, biking, writing, photography or feng shui, you’ll be able to find it! Think about what you’d like to focus on during your retreat. 4. Relax, rejuvenate and make time for yourself. Most retreats offer the classes and daily excursions as optional so you can participate as much or as little as you wish. If you need alone time, take a day for yourself. Most venues will offer spa treatments and massage or find a place for you to be pampered nearby. It is your retreat so never “should” yourself. 5. Become inspired by new sights and experiences. Usually, there is time to explore the local city and nearby towns. You can go out to eat, sightsee, shop and partake in the cultural or traditional activities. Classes for cooking, surfing, pottery, drumming etc may be available. Research the kind of activities and spiritual rituals you may be able to participate in.
6. You'll connect with like-minded new friends. One of the best parts of going on a retreat is the people you will meet. They'll come from all over the world so you’ll learn a lot chatting with them during meals and group activities. You might find you have a lot in common since you were attracted to the same retreat. 7. You'll take home life-enhancing skills & positive memories. By the end of the retreat, you will have learned something special which you can bring back into your life at home. Every time you practice or use that skill, it anchors you to the positive retreat experience. Memories are the best gift of any vacation. Your photos will transport back in time. I’ve made photo books of my retreats so I can re-experience all the good feelings and memories. I hope you find yourself a wellness retreat to uplift and rejuvenation your body, mind and spirit. They have been so helpful and inspiring to me, I hope they will be for you too! Jayme Barrett is a writer, speaker and best-selling author of Feng Shui Your Life.

The philosophy of natural health care has been well accepted by Australians.

WHAT SEPARATES MEDIOCRITY FROM EXCELLENCE?
Successful people have a desire & passion for learning and continuously seek new, better and more effective ways of doing things. Successful people also know that self
improvement is the fastest way to skyrocket to the top of any field, or make life long changes in any area of life. Why is this? It’s because all those cliches we were taught when we were children were correct. You’re perfect the way you are. You are the missing link to your own personal power and success. That is, your mental and emotional state, coupled with your physical body and energy are the keys to your unlimited success. You already have everything you need inside you to have a successful fulfilling life. What’s standing in the way of accessing your unlimited potential are patterns of behaviour you’ve picked up over time, and negative emotions from your experiences in the past that are holding you back from truly live in the present moment. Educating yourself on how your emotions, thoughts and focus affect your success & learning the tools to put yourself in a peak state is the key to living a life of excellence!

LEARN TO HELP OTHERS AND CHANGE LIVES
Beyond Meditation – Awaken the Divine Knowledge Within You As Soul you have the ability to access divine knowledge, that inner guidance that lies within you. Meditation will assist to some extent, but beyond meditation there are more, simpler techniques that can take you deeper into your own spiritual resources. Once I discovered the uplifting spiritual techniques offered by Eckankar I found myself on the road to reaching my goal of realising the strengths that lie within my inner self. When my children or friends ask for advice about a tough situation in life, instead of giving them my answer, I can offer a simple technique to find their own answers, from their own inner wisdom. The most successful technique I have discovered is chanting HU, an ancient name for God. Combined with a simple contemplation technique, gently focusing my inner attention on inspirational thoughts of divine love and compassion, this technique has transformed my life and opened my heart to God’s love. I have found this daily practice
has helped me experience more joy, love and spiritual freedom in my life. There is no way to prove this works other than to simply try it and see. Each of us has stories showing how tuning into our inner wisdom has benefited us spiritually. Nothing is more uplifting than sharing these wonderful stories with other like-minded people. You are invited to join the students of Eckankar for a day of FREE talks, discussions and workshops on SUNDAY JANUARY 10, 2016, at the Hilton Hotel, 190 Elizabeth Street Brisbane. Registration is at 9.30am, with the program commencing at 10am. The Seminar will feature international guest speaker, Emma Laurence from New York. Emma views each moment as an opportunity to serve God. Her animated stories, heartfelt songs, and deep insights have inspired her audiences to enrich their spiritual journey with refreshed dedication and a playful spirit. Emma’s keynote talk is entitled “Your Life as a Spiritual

Gosnells Clairyovant Readings Numerology and Tarot
by Lorraine Webb How we complicate our lives by trying to work out or resolve issues that we cannot do anything about. So many of my clients come with complicated stories that involve so many others, extended family, friends, work associates that they are entangled with. By simplifying their story and coming back to their own level of responsibility in this world, suddenly all appears to be manageable. There is wisdom in knowing what is your business and what is none of your business. As an example a client came to me very angry about the murder of a much loved friend, he was struggling with understanding and accepting the fact that these people had not been punished. He acknowledged that his friend had contacted him in a dream and told him to let it go yet he was finding this most difficult. Explaining to him that he did not have all the information associated with this situation and therefore could not ever expect to work it out and to understand that

the Universe was very just and operated on a system that says ‘what you do will be done unto you’ therefore he could step back and just allow it to be, with trust and faith that there are no ‘mistakes’ or accidents in a divinely orchestrated Universe only lessons and soul growth. To hang on to his anger would only bring chaos to his world and influence his loved ones in a negative way. I am lucky enough to be able to talk with Divine Spirits and to get wisdom and knowledge when I require it, I feel very blessed to have this gift. There have been times in my life that have been very difficult and the support from my helpers from the spirit world have never let me down. In 2012 I suddenly lost my much loved son; he along with other spirits supported me through those days. Spirit often communicates with me through song. At that time I had many questions coming from grief and pain and the song that was sung to me daily in
my head was Paul Aura McCartney’s Photos & Chakra Reports “LET IT BE”, they would Blockage sing to me,Release Profiles 30 Detox Chakra Treatments YEARS “Let it be, let it be, let it be, oh let Balancing it experience Personal direction ... be, there will be an answer let it be Relationships ... Business ... … When I find myself in times of lifeawareness.com.au 0416 034 884 trouble Mother Mary comeslesley@lifeawareness.com.au to me singing words of wisdom let it be”. That song gave me strength along with many other things that happened that I would class as miracles. A few months later I was in Uluru teaching, I was in the shower feeling grief when suddenly Mother Mary was with me and she said to me “I lost my son too.” My friends in the spirit world helped me to heal. I have learnt from this and other experiences that we cannot control anyone or anything other than ourselves. Often the wisest thing to do is to let it be. I have passed this on to many clients and can see the burden lifted from their shoulders as they leave the room. Do what you can in a situation and what you cannot control you must accept.

InnerSelf ultimately took care of me. Eventually, I fell sick, developing a fever and chills. I thought, “Just let me die. Maybe I’ll join my son.” By this time, my husband was not there much. One day while deathly ill, I started to get really cold. I heard my son’s laughter in the distance. My daughters, who were huddled around the bed, told me they loved me. A priest came to give me a blessing, and then suddenly I couldn’t feel my body. I realized I’d died. My son was there to greet me after I left the body. I now realize that my oldest daughter in that life is my mother in this life. My husband from that life is my father today. My fiancé, Michael, in this life was the son I lost in that life.”

DR CHARLES RICHARDS
How to recall and heal the wounds of present and past-lives, pre-birth, and the birth experience Dr Charles Richards, bestselling author of “Karmic Relationships: Healing Invisible Wounds”, specializes in SOUL JOURNEY THERAPY, a process he developed and refined which allows clients to recall and heal the invisible emotional wounds of present and past-lives, pre-birth, and the birth experience. Dr Charles Richards’ work has featured on Oprah, the Chopra Center for Well-being and The Other Side, an NBC special. Dr Charles will be touring Australia in 2016 to present his ground breaking work through workshops, individual sessions and practitioner trainings. Ever wonder why you were born into a certain family? Why you have a very caring or challenged relationship with your parents, siblings, work associates, friends, or significant other? Who hasn’t met someone for the first time and found him or her so familiar that they became fast friends? Sometimes this familiar feeling shows itself as a spontaneous dislike. It’s all too common, but why and how? This mystery is not unsolvable if you take a closer look at two universal spiritual laws called karma and reincarnation. This story, from a successful West Coast attorney who came to me for pre-marital therapy, may shed some light. Here is what her session revealed:
“Mine was an arranged marriage to the son of a long line of monarchs. My mother died when I was young. My father was also a monarch. I never felt much for my husband, but we had beautiful clothes, an estate, horses, etc. I was well-cared for, but I didn’t feel much until I had my children. First I had a son and then two daughters. My son was a good child; sweet, loving, and just wanted his mother. We played hide and seek in the garden. He loved it. He grew up fast and one day came to me and said he wanted to go to the war. I wanted to stop him but couldn’t talk him out of it. I tried to get his father to change his mind, but this also failed. I begged him not to go. I got down on my hands and knees. I didn’t care, for I feared he would be killed. Yet he told me
As featured on Oprah and the Chopra Center for Well-being
he had to go. When the time came, I watched him until he was out of site in the carriage that took him away. Later I had a dream about him. During the dream he came to say goodbye. I told my husband and he said, “Don’t worry about it; I’m sure he’s fine.” I did worry about it. Weeks went by, and by the time there came a knock on the door, I already knew what the message was going to be. He’d been killed. I thought I’d forever be heartbroken. The one perfect thing I did was lost. After the news, I pushed my family away, withdrew, and didn’t eat much. I was not really there for my husband or daughters. My oldest daughter tried to get me out of my self-imposed prison, and
It was her first Soul Journey (nonhypnotic, past-life experience) in which we sought to determine the cause of the strong, instant recognition, comfort, and attraction she had for her new fiancé. It also gave insight to her need to be on top of things all the time, anticipating what could go wrong. This caused friction between her and her man, who often became the object of her need to always be in control. The session resulted in an immediate shift for the better in their relationship. This is a typical example of how karmic relationships from past-lives can influence your behavior in this life. It happens constantly with those surrounding you. The law of karma says that whatever you do and say comes back to you in like and in kind. Simply put, you reap what you sow. It also requires that you finish today what was unresolved yesterday. Karma is as impersonal as gravity and mathematically exact. Shame, blame, or the victim game have little significance when you understand and consider karma. Everything that comes into our life for good or ill has its basis in karma. Divine love is the only expression that supersedes it. A frequent question is: How could you or anyone else set into motion the causes for all things, desirable or not, that befall you during the course of your life? You were already born into many life conditions. Others appear to result
Soul JOURNEY
from random good and bad luck, or just coincidence. From a single birth perspective, life can appear very unfair. But is it truly? The law of reincarnation says that as Soul, we are spiritual beings immersed in a human experience—that this life is just the tip of the iceberg and we are born and reborn again and again until Soul awakens to its true potential. Life after life, our experiences are evaluated and we are sent back for more. Like the long days of a school kid, this continues, it seems forever, through ages of time until we, as Soul, understand and apply the varied manifestations of divine love. When this happens, Soul graduates to a higher order of expression either here on earth or elsewhere. The goal is continuous refinement in the expression of divine insight. It all starts with Soul being born and reborn in physical bodies. If you’ve ever seen the movie Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray, you may have some idea of what divine law requires of us. In the movie, he has to live a day of his life over and over until he learns to be genuinely compassionate and do the right thing. This is the real task of living and the higher purpose behind your many and varied goals in life. Like it or not, such a realization takes painstaking seasoning that simply can’t happen in the span of one lifetime. So, here we are again. Those you meet and interact with from day to day are Souls you have known before in past-lives. Your ties to them are a karmic mixture of love, passion, challenge, and conflict. You meet again and again to settle old scores, set out on new adventures, or share love and companionship. Often it’s a mixture of all. Hence, you have that old familiar feeling. As a psychotherapist addressing clients’ past-lives and karmic relationships to resolve blocks, fears, and life challenges, I see this protracted drama being played out daily. These issues or conflicts can go on for years, displaying a stubborn and irrational pattern until their true causes are uncovered and resolved. Often the root of these persistent challenges begins long before you were born into this life. They can be identified by a persis-
tent, irrational, and exaggerated emotional response to a situation, person, event, or action. Even chronic physical complaints with no medical basis can have roots in past lives. One woman had chronic abdominal pain and required frequent cortisol injections. There was no medical basis for the pain, but a past-life experience uncovered a death from a stab wound while pregnant. After reliving the experience, the pain simply vanished. Those TV or movie scenes you simply can’t bear to watch, or that injustice that really pushes your buttons can be telltale signs of karmic seeds from past-lives. Scenes from the Holocaust, drug abuse, knife attacks, or slavery are just a few that come to mind having pastlife history. The revelations about your true nature and spiritual potential are endless when you dare to take a closer look at who you are and why you’re here. It may take hundreds or even thousands of lifetimes, but it is really just a matter of time and awareness. Charles Richards, PhD. is a licensed psychotherapist and author of “Karmic Relationships: Healing Invisible Wounds”. He specializes in SOUL JOURNEY THERAPY, a process he developed and refined which allows clients to recall and heal the invisible emotional wounds of present and past-lives, pre-birth, and the birth experience. His expertise includes facilitating between-life experiences and a process he calls karmic analysis. This is a method of learning the present and past-life karmic influences in your current life and relationships. Dr Charles Richards’ work has featured on Oprah, the Chopra Center for Wellbeing and The Other Side, an NBC special. Dr Charles will be touring Australia in 2016 to present his ground breaking work to both public and practitioners.

LORD, MAKE ME AN INSTRUMENT OF THY PEACE A meeting with a mysterious Franciscan monk Humility is at the heart of Truth. A humble heart knows how to live, with each heartbeat in rhythm with the Divine.
Let Your Spirit Sing CD by Leo Drioli
“Clear, pure, simple, inspired and deeply authentic… Feel the gift of Presence in these 5 Heart Songs.” Leo’s songs are unique outpourings of heart-felt joy and connection, each track offers insight and clarity, the gift that comes from his ability to transmute life’s challenges into deeper awakening and sharing it through the time honoured medium of the pop song. Listen to these songs not only with the ears but with the heart … this will open that doorway to your own transformation “Leo Drioli’s sound is similar to that of Cat Stevens and John Lennon – ruminations that are of an inspirational, motivational and expressive nature.” — Kyle Jarminer, The Examiner “I was on my way to work and just felt like I needed to listen to your EP again. ‘Let Your Spirit Sing’ is such a beautiful song. When I heard the words ‘Open Up My Heart, Show Me How To Love’... I just started welting in tears, seriously … I was trying to be conscious of other drivers not seeing me cry (ha ha). I played that about 3 times in the car this morning and just started singing to it.” — Elio, Composer of The Healing Codes Leo Drioli’s words and music, shared as Heart Songs, dig deep into our collective search and yearning for what is true, real and lasting in this world and beyond it. All his songs stem from that innate urge to connect to the depth of things and to realize our own true nature as Presence. His music carries on in the spiritual pioneering tradition of the inspired master singer/songwriters of the 60’s and 70’s. He acknowledges openly how much people such as John Lennon, George Harrison and Cat Stevens have inspired and informed his work … his continued efforts in spreading the eternal message that our true purpose here is to realize our soul essence and to channel it as love thus living beyond the grip of fear.

Standing in the grounds of Sacro Monte (Sacred Mountain) a Franciscan monastery in a small town near Stressa in Northern Italy, Enza and I are approached by a young monk who begins to speak openly and directly to us about God, without any need for inquiry on our part . . . “Man through his egotism has lost his way. We have forgotten how to live this life. We have turned our faces away from the Father and have forsaken Him.” Studying his gentle features, he reminds me of what I imagine San Francesco - this man’s beloved inner teacher and patron saint of Italy - must have looked like seven hundred years ago. Looking directly into his wide open eyes and sensing a total release from the world, he seems to be speaking in St. Francis’ very own words . . . “All around us are treasures of Heaven, yet we don’t see them. Our brothers and sisters, the trees, the flowers, the birds, the animals. . . all these gifts of creation are not loved. “We have abused our power by fighting each other and we have turned away from the true life we were all meant to live.” Suddenly the young man comes out of his inspired reverie; a little blushed caused by our silence and our willingness to really hear his words. This doesn’t faze him though, as he gathers himself again and continues. . . “This life is to be lived simply, in appreciation for the gifts given us by our Father in Heaven. But no, we choose to look the other way, with the inevitability of what is to come due to our egotism. “We are to pray if we hope to
move closer to God. And by prayer, I don’t mean the way most pray: always asking for this or that, giving with one hand but taking back with the other. “No, this is not prayer. We are to pray to God with humility, giving thanks to Him for the gifts and pray that we may come back to the Good Life.” With a shrug and a sigh, this humble channel for Master Francis bade us farewell and slowly moved on, back into the small church from where he had come. Enza and I looked at each other in amazement, deeply touched by this gentle yet provocative discourse. It caused a stir within me that asked only one thing of me, “What is this life really for?” The answer is simple yet, we are not only called to answer it but to live it - daily. Master Francis only asked one thing and that is all that God asks of any Soul: “Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace.” From a journal entry in my "Don't Miss a Moment" notebook date 17 August 1996, on a trip to Italy. Soon to be published in Leo’s second book "Awakening Presence", out March 2016. Leo Drioli is the author of “Every Moment’s a Miracle” and editor of InnerSelf Newspaper.

HAPPINESS IS WHEN WHAT YOU THINK, WHAT YOU SAY, AND WHAT YOU DO ARE IN HARMONY. - MAHATMA GANDHI www.innerself.com.au
Well here we are at the end of the calendar year and the opening of a new quarter, bringing opportunity for most of us to relax with family and friends. It is a good practice as we complete the year to take a precious moment to contemplate the past year; our ‘should haves’, our maybes, successes and challenges. This process will then allow us to move forward, with an optimistic attitude, clear and conscious into the New Year, 2016. The skies in December certainly reflect these opportunities beginning with Venus in Scorpio; you may be examining yourself intensely on issues of self-esteem, power within relationships, where you value yourself, your financial flow, along with love and intimacy. The questioning of these issues can feel uncomfortable, however when honesty is implemented while you seek, the gain will be a deeper understanding of yourself spiritually and psychologically. Mercury in addition to being the cosmic messenger is the ruler of communication and information, journeys directly into the structured sign of Capricorn for most of December. Generally, this is a favourable influence for planning and solid clear communication so take time in the second week of December to consolidate planning for the home and at work, as well be clear in your communication with others when delegating and coaching. Later in the month when Mercury conjuncts Pluto, squares Uranus (retrograde) and then square Mars, communication, planning and information can suddenly take a downward course and bring about intensity and disruption. Therefore you may find yourself involved in verbal power plays and arguments, do be careful what you voice. The Sun progresses into Capricorn on the 22nd of December bringing us the dawning of the Summer Solstice. This is the point intime known as ‘full light’ when the powers of nature are bursting in maturity, with trees bearing fruits and flowers blooming completely. Traditionally the Summer Solstice is marked by burning fires and celebrating through the shortest night. However, in the Australian summer, we are restricted with the burning of fires alternatively we drum, dance, chant and sing within Sacred Ceremony to raise the power of the circle and connect with the highest point of light. When we harness and focus the energy raised, on our dreams, intentions and wishes, we assist these imaginings to manifest into our daily lives. On Christmas day, within the week of the Summer Solstice, the Cancer Full Moon ascends 3 degrees at 10.11pm (Sydney time). Neptune is amplifying a loving spiritual, heart flow to all, by being in trine to the Moon. This beneficial aspect offers a buffer to the transits of Mercury mentioned above on the 25th so that we can all enjoy the holiday celebrations with our families, friends and communities, in heartfelt joy and peace. The New Year starts with Venus just into Sagittarius and with this influence you may find yourself spontaneously making short local trips like visiting museums, catching up with friends or looking to a new interest that may involve learning about other cultures.
Holiday romance is favourable at this time of year and with Venus in Sagittarius you could impulsively embark on a fun weekend away with your current partner or new love. Then again you may decide that it is time to learn about mystical matters, and go on retreat together where you both can ponder on different and interesting philosophies. Mars enters Scorpio on the 4th as does Mercury enter Aquarius forming a square, take care not to get too combative with words as within the week the energy will recline as Mercury retro grades and you may have chosen different words on a different day. The Capricorn New Moon (20 degrees) on January 10th is next-door to Pluto (15 degrees) and forms a trine with Jupiter at 23 degrees in Virgo. Any new projects started now will be meaningful, enduring and transformative. Uranus (16 degrees in Aries) is in the mix squaring the New Moon, offers original ideas and challenges the status quo. The majestic Full Moon in Leo soars into the skies on the January 24th, with squaring Mars in Scorpio there is a driving force that we must work with. The mix of elemental fire and water is abundant within this transit and presents opportunity for ‘alchemic’ healing on all levels. You can also utilise the combined power within the Leo Moon/Scorpio Mars to take the lead, inspire others and boost your creative juices. As the world takes heed after the transforming energies from the cardinal four we move to a place in humanity to assimilate the changes and practise life in different ways. Bridges of harmony need to be built as does understanding and negotiation for equal sharing of the earth’s resources, needs a real platform. The transits in the sky that will support this process to completion have previously entered their journey in the mutable signs; Neptune has been in Pisces since April 2011, Saturn in Sagittarius since December 2014 and Jupiter in Virgo since August 2015. The Mutable signs mould new structures together; their energy is gentler and more discreet than the cardinal signs. For example cardinal energy would use a jackhammer to break a rock, whereas the mutable energy will utilise the flowing river over the rock, persistently and smoothly the rock will change shape. Over the next few years the transits of Neptune in Pisces, Saturn in Sagittarius and Jupiter in Virgo will guide the evolution of humanity; by connecting with the universal mind to eliminate religious and racial intolerance and welcoming all peoples into the collective heart, where inclusiveness on all levels is totally embraced. The Full Moon rises 4 degrees in the mutable sign of Virgo, on February 23rd (Sydney time 5.19am). This grace filled Moon connects her radiant light with the unconscious collective of Neptune (in Pisces) bringing forth what we truly feel and asks us to surrender our shadow into the purity of the Sun, the Divine Spirit Heart, whether we name that, God, Goddess or the Universe, does not matter, it’s the action and intention to evolve your heart and open to serve the whole.

This book brings a sense of the sacred into our everyday life, and helps us to see the life we have been given through the eyes of our heart. — Spiritual teacher and author of Always Already Free - Recognizing the natural wakefulness that we were born with If a book had a soul, then this book would be brimming with Spirit. Leo has a unique way of conveying deep truths using simple, yet beautiful language. His words follow a direct route from the mind to the heart, and can touch anyone, no matter where they are on their spiritual path. — Spiritual teacher and author of Past Lives, Present Miracles
Even the most exalted spiritual accomplishments are unimportant if we cannot be happy in the most basic and ordinary way because the greatest lesson is that the Universal must be wedded to the Personal for us to be fulfilled in our spiritual life. With freshness and a unique blend of spiritual insight, poetry and simple life wisdom, Leo Drioli draws our attention to everyday occurences in his daily life, which gives us insights and simple techniques for attuning ourselves to the natural and dynamic inner movement of our own lives, which is the key to finding joy both within and without.
An A to Z compilation of spiritual themes, the genius of this warm, inspiring book lies in its discovery of the miraculous in the mundane, and how, in our everyday life, there are many opportunities for awakening. The challenge is to recognise them. Reading this book will help you to witness every moment in your life — even those that seem filled with pain or conflict — in another way, a way that offers a sense of unity and joy, rather than separation and fear, plus a way to live a deeper, truer, more satisfying life in this world. LEO DRIOLI has been a pioneer in the consciousness movement for over 35 years. Launching one of Australia’s first spiritual magazines, Golden Age in 1988, he is currently editor of Innerself Newspaper and also a director of the MahaShanti Foundation for Awakening.

By Claudio Silvano The story continues from where Silvano’s first book (Illiom – Daughter of Prophecy ) left off, as Illiom and the other Chosen are in possession of two of the seven Keys needed to fulfil their spiritual destinies. Here’s a taste of what they discover: “All the powers of the universe are already present within each and every being’s core. It is only our sense of limitation … that prevents us from experiencing this truth. This sense of limitation is itself a power known as Marbas and in this instance serves an important purpose: that of keeping us in this physical realm to experience life in this limited way. If it were removed, we would not dream of remaining so limited for another moment and we would expand back into the truth of our natural vastness.”

Compassion is not an act that we do; It is what we are Q & A WITH ENZA VITA, AUTHOR OF “ALWAYS ALREADY FREE” If you would like to ask Enza a question for this column please email her at enzavita@enzavita.com Q: If who we truly are is perfection, then how can there be so much human suffering? I cannot detach myself from the genocide, murder, and starvation that exist in our world. Isn’t service and caring about others important? EV: Why do you think you need to be detached and ignore the suffering in the world? Why do you think that you shouldn’t try to alleviate suffering wherever possible? All these ideas have their basis in the assumption that you are separate from the suffering in the world. However, when you relax into that still, peaceful, conscious presence that you are, the natural compassion that is the essence of the true self will come into focus and your answers will become clear. You won’t be able to stop it. When we are able to perceive the true nature of objects, compassion is the natural response, the natural outpouring of awareness that sees things as they are. The vibration of this compassion will help to alleviate your own suffering and that of all beings. Imagine it as removing the clouds from an overcast day and allowing the sunlight to stretch its rays towards the earth. This is what it is like when we clear up the clouds of misunderstanding. When we no longer see a division between an “us” and a “them,” we experience an unlimited well of compassion. We are no longer focusing on something that does not exist such as the way the world should be but obviously isn’t. We do not get caught in the trap of trying to fix things. We offer our help where it seems appropriate and allow it to take root where it needs to grow. However, when the ego becomes involved, that compassion can be transmuted into a need that crosses appropriate boundaries whenever seeking to help others. It can give rise to an attitude of
superiority that sees others as pitiful, and can become tyrannical and controlling to those it is trying to help. Whenever the ego initiates the actions, there is a tendency for jealousy, control, crisis, and hatred to arise. When you realize that you are awareness, then an awakened compassion arises. There is a natural intelligence, love, and compassion that does not stem from the body-mind unit. Rather, it is a spontaneous expression coming from the same source that creates everything moment by moment. This kind of compassion, having no need to assign itself to an object, will help you to locate the imbalance in any situation and appropriately address it. You will not have to feel compassion for anything; it will simply be there. Not as being compassionate, but as being compassion itself. Compassion is not an act that we do; it is what we are. We understand the play of appearances—and yet … we take action. Enza Vita has studied for over 40 years with some of the greatest spiritual teachers of our age. Enza Vita is the publisher of InnerSelf Newspaper and founder and director of the MahaShanti Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the awakening of all beings. Enza is also the author of the book Always Already Free and her latest book Instant Presence . Based on Enza’s own experience, Always Already Free and Instant Presence guides the reader from the seeking process through the integration of enlightenment into everyday life and reveals that spiritual enlightenment is not a faraway dream, but the ever-present reality always available here and now. For more information, visit www. enzavita.com Free download of 3 chapters from the book Always Already Free, are available from www.EnzaVita.com
Every moment a new world is born, different from the past one. Only our mind bridges the gap, giving the impression of continuity between the two. Birds flying across the blue sky, the wind rustling the vine leaves, the sound of water from the pond splashing on the rocks below: each new moment is so mysterious and so precious but as each moment runs in to the next, nothing remains, everything passes away. If you understand this, relax your grip and treat every moment as your last one. This is the ultimate. - Enza Vita

Enza’s personal awakening story, in the first few pages, is worth the price of admission. Enlightened wisdom is like an endangered natural resource today, which we overlook at our peril; let’s join in exploring and developing our own innate transformational resources for a change. — LAMA SURYA DAS, author of Awakening the Buddha Within This is an outstanding offering to our appreciation of the genuine voice of Pure Presence. It brings us to a deep awareness of what it truly means to study and realize the self and our intrinsic true nature as that which is already perfect, whole and complete. A book certainly worthy of your time and attention. — GENPO ROSHI, author of Big Mind, Big Heart Enza Vita is the publisher of Innerself newspaper and the founder and director of the MahaShanti Foundation, a nonprofit organization, dedicated to serve the spiritual awakening of all beings.

LUNAR PHASES AND PERSONALITY TYPES Lunar phases occur as a result of the relationship between the Sun and the Moon. This cyclic relationship produces the lunar cycle and everyone is born at a particular point in this cycle. A birth can be labelled as a “first quarter” “full moon” or “balsamic”. The lunar phase a person is born in refers to the relationship between the person’s Sun (the sense of self) with their Moon (their emotional expression and security). Therefore, the lunar phase that a person is born in can reflect how that person deals with life - the nature of the energy and their attitude to life and how they deal with it. The lunation cycle is a visible symbol of our place in the larger cycle of life. Without a calendar, we cannot accurately pinpoint our day of birth, however, we can easily
Email: info@psychicreadingsaustralia.com.au Web: www.psychicreadingsaustralia.com.au
discern our “Moon” birthday simply by looking at the phase of the Moon. Every month, each and every one of us resonates to that aspect of the Sun-Moon relationship that is imprinted in our psyches. This describes the basic capacity of the person to relate to life generally. In order to find the lunation phase you are born under, you can consult an almanac for the year and find out what the Moon phase nearest to when you were born. Dane Rudhyar, a famous astrologer developed the theory of phases and used it to develop the eight lunation types of personality which we will be discussed in a series of short articles over the coming issues.
A NEW MOON occurs when the Moon is less than 45 degrees ahead of the Sun. For a period of three and a half days every month, there is a New Moon and all births during this period will have a New Moon in their chart. Mari Garcia is a professional consulting astrologer. She is co- principal of ASTRO MUNDI, which offers astrological education for the beginner and the professional. Mari is a Council Member of the Astrological Guild of Educators International and is a founding member of the Forum of Professional Astrologers.

Always Already free - by Enza Vita
Based on Enza’s own experience, Always Already Free is a guide to discovering the deepest truth about who we are. In this book, the author presents her own personal direct encounter with the awakened state and guides the reader from the seeking process through the integration of spiritual enlightenment into everyday life and reveals that enlightenment is not a faraway dream, intellectual knowledge or even an experience but the direct realization of our true nature always available here and now. “While it’s true that we are always the Self”– says Enza Vita “if this hasn’t been truly and directly realized, this knowledge won’t do us any good. Just knowing that there is no gate to pass through doesn’t mean that we are at the end of the search, not if we are still standing outside that gateless gate. Realization is not about you, the wave, realizing it is ocean. The ocean realizes itself in you and reveals itself to have never been just a wave.”
This book brings a sense of the sacred into our everyday life, and helps us to see the life we have been given through the eyes of our heart. — Spiritual teacher and author of Always Already Free - Recognizing the natural wakefulness that we were born with If a book had a soul, then this book would be brimming with Spirit.

Even the most exalted spiritual accomplishments are unimportant if we cannot be happy in the most basic and ordinary way because the greatest lesson is that the Universal must be wedded to the Personal for us to be fulfilled in our spiritual life. With freshness and a unique blend of spiritual insight, poetry and simple life wisdom, Leo Drioli draws our attention to everyday occurences in his daily life, which gives us insights and simple techniques for attuning ourselves to the natural and dynamic inner movement of our own lives, which is the key to finding joy both within and without.
An A to Z compilation of spiritual themes, the genius of this warm, inspiring book lies in its discovery of the miraculous in the mundane, and how, in our everyday life, there are many opportunities for awakening. The challenge is to recognise them.

MONTIME DIARY 2016
For ten years now, the Moontime Diary has been a much loved companion guide to many who are seeking a life more in tune with natural seasons and cycles. They found that being aware of the moon’s cycle is helpful every day, like dealing with others (teenagers!), gardening, daily chores, treatments, projects and so on. Gardeners dig the Moontime Diary because they always know where the moon is. Beginners like it because the daily tips and information is easy to understand and follow. Mothers love it because they can anticipate or explain their own and their children’s behaviour, plan ahead and be more efficient with their chores. Health professionals appreciate it because they know of the influence of the moon. Astrologers can’t do without it because they find daily planetary positions, aspects and interpretations without

As you go down the conveyor belt of being fixed you notice further symptoms developing over time like going “from out of the frying pan into the fire” In searching for answers, you may need to ask “what is the cause of my sickness?” since putting out the fire is not enough if there are simmering embers in the fireplace. I often say to my patients “a headache is not because of a deficiency of panadol or any other painkiller” but something deeper. Whatever chronic illness or recurring symptoms you have, do not be satisfied with being diagnosed and put into a box, like being told, “you’ve got X Disease! Here is your medication to take for the rest of your life”. The question I have asked since I was 5 years old (one that irritated my senior peers) was “but why”. This seeming un-satiable question furthered my continuing search into the why’s of premature aging and chronic illness and the how’s of transforming and regenerating physical and mental wellbeing. The ultimate process of illness is always Oxidative Stress and inflammation – which can attack any cell, tissue, organ, nerve, brain, glands, joints or bones. Inflammation can spiral and when inflammation becomes chronic; the end stage can be cancer. If you are looking for the best available information, here are 7 fundamental checks to reverse mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress involved in inflammations:
1. UNHEALTHY LIFESTYLE
• Obesity and weight loss Check BMI (Basal Metabolic Index calculated from your height and weight) – if result is 30 or more, obesity is an issue and a high risk factor. Check your abdominal circumference; this can indicate risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure and some cancers. • Hydration - Are you drinking enough? Are you absorbing enough? • Diet - What type of foods does your body want and NOT want? You may have food intolerances. Are you still having sugar and processed carbs? Are you constipated? Check for GUT dysfunction and leaky gut. • Exercise - Try interval training (a type of physical training that involves a series of low to high inten-
16
sity exercise workouts interspersed with rest or relief periods). • Tobacco & Alcohol are high risk factors. Just say no!
2. HORMONES & NUTRITION:
Antioxidants, Vitamins, Minerals, Essential fatty Acids, Amino Acids like glutathione, SOD, NAC, alpha lipoic acid and other nutrients are essential for mitochondrial function, energy production and neutralizing free radicals. Check your hormonal status: adrenals, thyroid and insulin.
3. OXYGEN/OZONE AND OXIDATIVE STRESS: ARE YOUR CELLS HYPOXIC?
quality of life and possibly longevity using non-toxic approaches. The above 7 steps plus less toxic or non-toxic targeted cancer therapies may be one of choice from the best available information currently present. These investigations cannot be undertaken in a short 10minute consultation. Remember you are a whole being and pay attention to all 7 areas. After 35 yrs of witnessing spiritual and emotional integrity underpins it all. Dr Margaret Jiin Ngu (MBBS Monash, FACNEM, MAMAC, MSE (Psych) is a Monash University medical graduate (1978) of 36 yrs, an expert in Integrative and Transformational Medicine for the past 30 plus yrs. Internationally she is a founding member of the IOICP (International Organisation of Integrative Cancer Physicians) and member of the AAOT ( American Academy of Oxidative Therapies). In Australia she is the only accredited IPT Physician offering Metabolically Supported IPT low dose chemotherapy; and trained in the USA in Oxygen/Ozone therapies for degenerative illness. Dr Ngu is a past president of the AIMA (Australasian Integrative Medicine Association), member of the RACGP, Royal Australian College of General Practitioners; the AMAC, Australian Medical Acupuncture College and Fellow of the Australasian College of Nutrition & Environmental Medicine, ACNEM.
Hypoxia is the term given when the powerhouse of your cells called mitochondria is getting low in oxygen. Without enough oxygen, energy (ATP) cannot be made to meet the functional needs of the cell causing loss of function, hyperacidity, DNA breakdown, metabolic errors and/or mutation to cancerous state. Furthermore mutated cancer cells thrive on anaerobic state (low oxygen). Ozone therapy via autologous hemotherapy is effective in reversing hypoxia. Ozone therapy (Prolozone) has also been shown to reverse arthritic joint inflammation and pain.
4. HYPERACIDITY AND ALKALINE BALANCE
Appropriate minerals, alkaline diet, juicing.
5. TOXICITY
Check for overload of accumulated chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, medications, foods preservatives, coloring; heavy metals like mercury, cadmium, lead and aluminium.

What is certain is that the body never lies and body symptoms are here to return you to your emotional and spiritual integrity. Check what thoughts, judgments and beliefs you are carrying that is generating the causal chain of emotional reactivity (anger, fear, sadness, infatuations) crystalizing in physical hormonal, nervous and cellular dysfunction called illness. Look for assistance with growth and transformation. If you have been diagnosed with cancer, remember you have a choice of which approach you take so choose carefully. The outcome studies have shown that patients who had standard of care chemotherapy improved longevity by only 2.3% compared to those who didn’t. You may want to choose

Heal Ourselves, Heal Each Other and Heal the World BY ANTHONY CRAIG Now appears to be such a time when this needs to be an important part of our consciousness. As we observe our historical journey we must be careful not to become involved in the hysteria that is created to divide and conquer. Stay true and know that a sense of love, unity and social conscience is what will really carry us through to more peaceful times. We are certainly in a time of transition as we keep getting reminded. Everything that is happening around us is the result of our individual and combined thoughts. We must all take responsibility for what is happening on our planet at this time. Remember the Power of One. It is important to start with ourselves. Become aware, filter the news as dispensed by self- serving governments and big corporations, see through the hysteria and remain calm. Stay true to the principles of love, faith, hope and tolerance and know that your actions will have an effect - whether on a local level to or as part of the big picture. The internet, being now so available around the world, offers an opportunity to research and become more accurately informed. Your individual use of social media allows you to posts, comments, media and information that have the opportunity to ignite and inflame, or to cool and diminish. The choice is yours. How do we help ourselves discern what should be appropriate? Bringing ourselves into a place of love, balance and harmony through the use of healing, meditation, music and/or prayer allows us to remain open and make more
informed choices in what we do or say. Starting with ourselves is most important. Once we have made those changes then it can radiate outwards and begin to affect others, one step at a time, whether it be physical or online communities. Working on ourselves to improve our spiritual side and awaken our consciousness allows us to remain more immune to the dissemination of inflammatory material full of other’s agendas. We are given many aids at this time to help us move through this sea of uncertainty. We know that there is an increasing awareness building and it up to each and every one of us to help speed this consciousness shift in whatever way we can. That’s why we chose to be here now. There are always many paths available to the top of the mountain. Look for the common denominators to make sure each path is working towards the same goal. These should include healing of self and others towards balance and harmony, expanding consciousness, concepts of unity, universal love and oneness, a sense of greater good, and challenging barriers. Modern forms of healing such as Spectra Healing do this. Working with superluminal light, sonic frequencies, mathematical patterns and chemical codings through multi-dimensional and inter-dimensional connections, DNA and core cellular structures can be altered to allow healing on all levels, not only individually but also for larger groups. Consciousness shifts also occur and can be speeded up through the use of specific audio-

visual stimulation. A specific brain state and the use of a heart, or oneness, consciousness during the healing session combined with a capstone link ensures the purest connection to Higher Intelligence and our perfect blueprint. Once we have worked on ourselves then it is time to stretch out and have an effect on others – families, communities, world groups and more. Research already documents the effects of intention, the power of prayer and the power of love. When each of us operates from within the right space There is no limit to what we can do. It is also recognised that only a small shift in consciousness is needed by a small number of people to have an effect on the bigger picture. Play your part. We hear doom and gloom on the news each day - terrorist activities, gang and domestic violence and threats of war. Some say World War III has already begun. Well it is up to us to overcome the hatred and bigotry that exists, to break down the barriers amongst religious and ethnic groups and to recognise that violent individuals or small minorities within a specific community does not represent the majority beliefs of that community. We must not fuel the blame and hatred game. Realise that we are all one within not only the global community but also the greater multi-dimensional universal community. Bring forth visions of unity, peace, and hope and we can change the actions of others.

SOUL RESET The Pathway of Devotion BY ROBYN COLLINS
In today’s time of global conscious evolution, humanity is no longer required to live from a place of temporary spiritual participation but to participate in a life of true commitment, devotion & embodiment. In our spiritual meetings, workshops and retreats over the past few years we have come across a common thread amongst so many who are totally exhausted from seeking spiritual knowledge wisdom and experience. After years on the path many feel a profound sense of being unfulfilled and confused which continues to result from a deep yearning to rest in an effortless and seamlessly peaceful life. Many have spent years learning a multitude of practices, workshops and theories and realize it is now time to STOP the old paradigm practices that give us a temporary “quick fix or feel good” and live in every moment and in every breath to the desired union of the Soul. This union does not come in the way of personification or devotion to a deity, entity or god outside of ourselves but to a conscious living choice of devotion of the love and joy of the true nature of the Self (Life force/ Soul) at the very core of our heart and in the essence of consciousness in the entire existence. Metaphorically, a Soul Reset is as simple as pressing a reset button that deletes all old files collected over lifetimes of human conditioning and creates a clear slate from which to live life in every instant liberated, free and awake - with no need for a specially designed “Way” based on man’s thinking mind and understanding that is still grounded in realms of illusion. In my first book “Return to Soul” one of the most important things I share as a way to fully awaken to your natural state of soul consciousness is through the attitude (standpoint) of Commitment. When you make a Commitment to practicing your true nature’s loving eternal presence, you will find that the peace that awakens within you will also surround you and continue to grow in every aspect of your life. This means that all of your mind, all of your energy, all of your gifts and all of your awareness must become committed to being the presence of your true essence which is no longer bound by attachments and fixations of the body and mind but of your nature as infinite, eternal, formless, magnificent Being. This is an Absolute Truth and there is not one person, or one thing that can do this for you. Although there are many “pointers” to give you a taste of the truth, your Commitment is the essential attitude to attaining Self Realisation with Oneness in all things in the present eternal moment. You must not do it just because your friends are doing it, you must not do it just for your parents, You must not do it, not for your spouse, You must not do it,not for your brother or your sister, You must not do it, just for the sake of the planet or for the sake of the universe, you must not do it to join a group and to feel better,
you must not do it for anything else but for the TRANSFORMATION OF YOUR SELF , for when you do it for your Self... you are doing it for all of creation which is you. Your true Self is what the Universe created and that Self calls out to you to honour it, by awakening to the illusions that you have allowed your-self to believe in your mind, and to now become wholly committed to living the Presence of Love. When you commit, you transcend the world of confusion, pain, and suffering that you once believed in, and you reclaim the world that rests in perfect union with the reality of Universal Truth, Liberation, and Love. When you make a deliberate decision to commit to something, nothing will prevent you or stand in the way of accomplishing your goal. Commitment isn’t just a daily pose or prayer, commitment isn’t just attending a weekly development group or church, commitment isn’t attending a weekend workshop, commitment isn’t attending a retreat or pilgrimage, commitment IS about consciously being aware of your every single breathing moment and recognizing when you aren’t aware and reacting from fear, unhealed trauma and separation from your divine true nature and LOVING your Self in order to heal and transform life. My undying commitment was to put an end to that little nagging voice that never felt fulfilled and always knew that there was something missing throughout those years of searching. Your commitment is already shown here in your quest to reading these words. By committing to a SOUL RESET you will discover a sense of rising above the mundane, liberation and freedom which is the awaking of the Soul at the very core of your being.

Living Authentically in 2016
Most people I know who are ruled by ‘time’ (days governed by unrelenting expectations of productivity) are disconnected from themselves, each other, and the natural world. Work, rush and worry occupy every space in their lives. There is never enough time! And that feeling of ‘running out of time’ always leads to pressure, stress, exhaustion and depression. Does that sound like you? In 2016, you can change how you relate to time by changing how you relate to the world around you. In this place of flow and grace, you’ll find a natural rhythm and a calm wisdom that guides you towards making better choices, so that your life feels rich instead of fleeting. When we honour our connection to the world around us, and to the people, places and activities that matter to us, our relationship to time changes – we get out of our heads and back into our bodies and our hearts. We begin to live more authentically. An authentic life is a life that is deliberate, aware and filled with meaning. So how do you get started? Find a spare few hours, and a quiet space, and then answer these simple questions. Write your responses in a journal, where you can refer back to them, or expand on them at a later date. What you are trying to discover is what matters most to you. CHERISHED DREAMS: Is there anything you’ve always wanted to do or become, or a place you want to visit, or an activity you want to try? If it’s something you have already dabbled at, but there’s not enough space in your life for that thing right now, add some stars beside it! HEALTH AND LIFESTYLE: Health matters. Without it, life becomes that much harder, our options fewer. What do you know you need to do to have better health? I’m not just talking good nutrition and exercise. Maybe you need to get rid of credit card debt so you can sleep at night, maybe it’s time to move, or change jobs, or make other changes so that you have the time, the resources, the support and the inner happiness to embrace living healthily, and to have longevity to get done all the things that you love to do. PLACE: Where does your heart sing? Inner city, wild coastlines, small towns, mountains? Art galleries, op shops, concerts and cafes. If you can’t live there, can you visit? Can you find a way to include some of that energy in your life this year? NATURE: Nature matters. Spending time outdoors, sunshine, standing barefoot on sand and grass, walking in the rain, sitting under a tree, eating fresh food, gardening, caring for animals, listening to the birds – all of these things heal us and help us. We are all interconnected, and part of the greater whole. How much time do you spend in nature? HEART SPACE: Who matters to you? Family, friends, lovers, people who share your interests? Relationships and interaction enrich our lives, and help us to grow, to heal, and to be uplifted. Life is nothing without love.
December-February 2015/16
We all need support, and we all have wisdom to share with others. HEART PURPOSE: Using our talents and gifts gives us emotional satisfaction. It might be paid work, or the pay might be measured in satisfaction rather than money. It might not even be your day job – you’ll know this work by how it makes you feel: you’d do it even if you weren’t getting paid. FUN STUFF: Surfing, eating mangoes, cryptic crosswords, travelling, music, garage sales, playing with the dog or the kids in the backyard, entertaining, reading, napping in hammocks. This is the magic of life, and often these pleasures are quite ordinary, and easy to include in our day, or our year. By making small windows of time for what really matters in our life – an hour for the gym, one night a week for art class, family dinner at the table instead of in front of TV, weekends camping or exploring the inner city – life’s texture begins to change and we begin living with integrity and authenticity. These simple actions are a solid beginning. – and they can be world changing. 2016 – honour the energy of change, starting with yourself. 2016 promises to be a year that truly supports us to make positive changes in our lives, and to grow towards our dreams. It’s a year for self-expression, creativity and putting our best selves and our best ideas out into the world. Let’s make the most of that! Wishing you every happiness, and an abundance of health, love, soul growth, creativity and good fortune for the coming year.

Improving your RELATIONSHIPS BY DAVID LANE Finding and maintaining happiness seems to be one of our greatest desires. The relationships that we develop have a huge effect on happiness. It does not really matter what sort of relationship that we are pursuing because good relationships must trigger a certain amount of happiness. Relationships can cover many aspects of your life because of the base word; ‘relate’. Most people will think of their relationships with other humans; particularly with their partner. However; we can have a broad spectrum of relationships ranging from the external such as work, environment, governments, institutions etc. We can also have more personal relationships with people we interact with, particularly with our family, friends and partners. The most important and intimate relationship is the internal one that we have is with our self yet this is the one that most people take for granted or don’t even think about. If we are to build or improve our relationships then we need something to build on; something with a strong foundation. We know that a strong and safe building needs a strong foundation to support it, however; not many people apply this principle to their own lives and the relationships that they try to build within it. We are the builders of our own relationships and any relationship we form will only be as strong as the builder. There are many people who feel victims in relationships and are very ready to blame the other person, persons or situation for the predicament that they find themselves in. The problem can nearly always be traced back to the early foundations they created in their part of such a relationship. Once it gets to
the conflict stage then it is very hard to own that we probably didn’t do enough in depth research (or didn’t have the tools to do so) and that we could have known a lot more about what we were building during the foundation stage. This may give credence to the old statement that “love is blind” when we look at our more personal relationships. We may need some principles or foundations to follow if the above stories relate to us. If this sounds like you then please complete this simple questionnaire on assessing where any of your relationships are at so as to get some insight into what you can do to change the structures you have built. 1. Identifying what you originally wanted out of the relationship 2. Identifying what you now want out of the relationship 3. Identifying what you originally didn’t want in the relationship 4. Identifying what you now don’t want in the relationship 5.Honestly access where your relationship is now. How does it compare to questions one and three? 6. Reflect upon and recognise what contributed towards how the relationship developed to the stage it has reached so far. 7. What do you want to change? 8. What are you going to do about creating the changes you desire? It Is sometimes hard to see the wood from the trees when any relationship becomes difficult to manage because there are usually many contributing factors. The idea of the above exercise is to define or break breakdown the issues into compartments so as you can see the bigger picture more clearly. Many people tend to generalise the
reasons why and where things are not working as they were intended to do. This is often very confusing because it can inadvertently create several grey areas. It is a lot easier to see/solve an issue when the picture is either black or white. If you still have a grey area in your problem then see if you can break it down even more until it becomes obviously clear about the factors involved. Now you will have more of a chance to review the problems caused at the foundation stage described earlier. Remember; the exercise is about trying to understand how the problem was created. It is definitely not about blaming anyone or anything. Any blame will trigger negative emotions that will interfere with your ability to see the reality of the issue. Blame also has the amazing ability to deflect your thoughts away from seeing and owning your contribution. If you would like to go deeper into how you can fix up your relationships then you will find more on my website.

BEING DEEPLY LOVED BY SOMEONE GIVES YOU STRENGTH, WHILE LOVING SOMEONE DEEPLY GIVES YOU COURAGE. - LAO TZU
Lack Consciousness BY RACHELLE TERRY – MEDICAL INTUITIVE “I just don’t want to miss out on getting into the market!” All of Jane’s friends were buying properties. She lusted after unrealistically priced houses and coveted health bloggers and their perfectly toned, Instagramable figures. Jane just wanted to increase her income, buy a property and then she’d be able to get the ever-fit body, have a better relationship with her husband and finally live that perfect life. The anxiety Jane felt when comparing herself to others was causing a sense of despair, restlessness and dissatisfaction. Viewing her energy field and noticing a blocked pattern in her second chakra (the energy center responsible for craving, attachment and creativity) I shared my observation. “I believe you have contracted a serious case of wantitis.” Have you ever been in a loop of saying, “Everything will be better when.. ? You just may also have Jane’s condition. In Sydney there is a distinct culture polarity in a street that joins Kings Cross to Potts Point. The Kings Cross end of the street is infamous for its sexual exploitation of women, illegal gangs and drug deals. At the other end of the street is Potts Point: a leafy, Parisian strip, home to impeccably dressed professionals with designer dogs and luxury cars. When I lived in the area, on my way to the city each day, I would see people with broken, disturbed and haunted energy fields on the Kings’ Cross strip. This is a phenomenon consistent with the struggle of life on the street, addiction and abuse. The sight of their suffering, on a physical and energetic level, always prompted me to send healing their way. In my ignorance, I did not do the same for both ends of the street. From a yogic or Buddhist perspective we are all in suffering but this word can sometimes be confused with the experience of pain.
It is better described as an anxiety caused by our attachments. Broadly speaking the Potts Point end of the street was an example of suffering while the other end of the street was an example of pain. Wantitis is just another form of poverty consciousness and it exists independently of a person’s bank balance. It is a state of suffering manifesting as over concern with image, constant craving for something we don’t have and an anxiety caused by fear of losing what we already have. When we have wantitis, we are not coming from a place of strength and we are trapped in a cycle of expectation and disappointment. What are we really craving? I believe it is a deeper connection - to our self, our spirituality and creativity and one another. The best antidote to wantitis is to first remind ourselves that we are already wealthy. Once we have deactivated our fight/flight, survival states we may then tune in and ask, “What does my soul really need in order to feel rich?” It may be as simple as strengthening your spiritual connection or tapping into your creativity again. Once we identify and address our states of lack in our inner world, we may then be pleasantly surprised to discover improvements and solutions appearing in our outer world.

Work - Are you fulfilling your life purpose ? BY SULABH JAIN Everyone is born with a specific life purpose. Often that purpose manifests itself through our family and our work – where we spend most of our time and energy. Today we will look at how to tell if someone is happy with the work that they are doing. This is independent of any financial considerations, and looks only at if they are living in a state of harmony with their Dharma in regards to work. For some people this could mean having a change of job, for others it could mean that they need a complete career makeover. In either case, in order to leave this world in a better space than when we entered it, we need to find our life purpose. If we look at the back of our hands, the knuckle on the middle finger will give us clues on how fulfilled we currently feel at work. The middle finger is called the ‘Finger of Saturn’, and it rules over our work and gives us clues on all areas of our work life. For example, a knuckle which is firm and is not dented or furrowed shows us that we are happy with work, and that we are fulfilling our potential.
This hand belongs to an accountant. We can see that the lines in the middle knuckle are not furrowed or dented, in other words,
PSYCHICS, MEDIUMS & CLAIRVOYANTS PAULA DE FRANCESCA
happy and content with his chosen profession. A knuckle which is dented, suggests that we are unhappy at work, and that our efforts could be better used elsewhere. People who have such an indication are often in the right field of work, but in the wrong organisation or even working with the wrong group of people. They can be frustrated at times because of this. It is advisable for them to look elsewhere for work.
This hand belongs to a young man who just landed a job in a prestigious financial services company. Although his dream job, he is unsettled with the level of competition within the work place and is looking to join another team within his department. A knuckle which is furrowed is a very sad sign. It is a sign or someone who is extremely unhappy in their chosen profession. They are in the wrong job, and that job is mostly likely in an industry that does not bring them joy. Furthermore, the financial rewards are often not enough to compensation for the difficulties that they feel because of their efforts as work. When you see such a mark, it is important to tell them to get in touch with their true Dharma, and to build a career around that path. Once a new industry is chosen, it is advis-
able to inspect this knuckle again after a period of 3-6 months to see if there are any improvements. This will tell us if you are on the right path, or if another correction needs to be made.
This hand belongs to a middle aged man who is unhappy with his career direction. Seeing the ‘damage’ to the middle knuckle we can advise him to look for a job outside his industry, and to do some soul searching to find his path. Because the knuckles are prone to change often, it is important to inspect the middle knuckle of the middle finger in your hand, and those of your friends and loved ones, from time to time to see how they are feeling at work. There are few things as frustrating as being unhappy at work, or even the feeling that your energies are not being directed towards your life’s purpose.

TOOLS FOR ENERGY HEALING Clear or Crumble by Debra Bright
REFLECTIONS WITH MICHELLE LIGHTWORKER If you would like to ask Michelle a question for this column please email her at admin@lightworkerreflections.com or through her website www.lightworkerreflections.com Hello Michelle, I keep seeing a white ghosty figure around my front door and my bedroom window often in the past week or so. I feel it is a woman but when I look up they disappear. Can you give me any idea of who and why they are around me. Would appreciate any explanation if there is one thanks I feel safe with this spirit just curious as to why they are watching over me. Many thanks for anything you can tell me Michelle Cheers, Pammy Jane Hi Pammy Jane, this person is a deceased family member and they are actually watching over you. They don’t want to step on your toes and really want your permission to connect. They understand if you feel a bit hesitant or wary but there is nothing to fear. They have told me that they have committed to assist you with your enlightenment in this lifetime and want you to know they are here for you. They especially wanted me to pass on that they are here to assist you to break any negative family and karmic patterns. So they are a great support for you. If you have a grandmother that has passed over, it feels like her energy. And on your mother’s side of the family. If not, then great grandmother. She says that you don’t need to know her to know her as you have spend many lifetimes

together. I hope this is a lovely invitation to connect. Please let me know how you feel Pammy and whether this resonates with you. Blessings, Michelle Lightworker Thanks Michelle, yes that does resonate. I felt it might be my mother. I never knew my maternal grandmother. I have quite a few items that belonged to her mother and I have always felt connected to my GGM through them. I need to find somewhere cheaper to live by May 2016 It is since I decided moving had to happen, this figure has been around me. I do feel safe and would like to connect with her. I sure could use some help at the moment. This morning the figure was in brown felt more masculine. I am feeling so happy, excited and emotional right now. Thank you Michelle Regards, Pammy Jane Michelle Lightworker is Director of Lightworker Reflections, appears as a Spirit Expert on Soul TV and is an A1RPsychic Radio Host.

TESLAS STARHENGE
Dimensionally Divine on the Sunshine Coast offers you the opportunity to experience the Teslas Starhenge. I can hear people asking What Does the Teslas Starhenge do? The short answer is that it provides an incredible experience of energy supporting you on all levels, Energy, Frequency and Vibration. This in turn helps you to remove the energy blockages that are holding you back in many areas of your life. For thousands of years the Chinese, Indians, Egyptians and many other cultures have talked about an energy system that exists within all of us. They also made many references to a source of energy that exists external to us. These internal systems have been referred to as the Meridians, Chakras, Chi, light etc... Find out how your energy levels are by having a Heart Quest Reading. It measures your energy levels before and after your time in the Starhenge. Today there is so much information to prove that we are made up of atoms and atoms are energy. The Teslas Starhenge works at a deep spiritual level by tapping into dimensions that are beyond the Physical Plane. The beauty of the Teslas Starhenge is that it is non- invasive. It can be used to compliment other forms of therapy and efficacy in that it forms a complete system of healing in its own right. The Starhenge seems to know at what level to work with you and that may be on a Physical, Emotionally or Spiritual level. The aim of the Teslas Star-
henge is to isolate the factors preventing energy balance, prioritise them and then embark in assisting the correction or “balancing the person” with the needed frequencies. The Starhenge help you to change the way you think and you may find it helpful balancing your energy patterns with addictions, emotional issues and other things you don’t even know you have. One of the great things when using the Teslas Starhenge is you do not need the input of a therapist or a practitioner to tell it what to do or how to work. This makes it very unique in the alternative healing world. It is recommended that you have at least five sessions whether it be in person or remotely. This can be spread over two to five weeks. We have found five sessions over three weeks is the optimal time but not everyone can do this and that’s fine. Overnight remote sessions are possible as well but may invoke a lot of dreaming while asleep. We also use Young Living Essential Oils to enhance your experience in the Tesla Starhenge. Many say the experience is very nurturing, supportive, centring and most of all very relaxing. Come relax as you sit inside The Teslas Starhenge in a peaceful private garden located in Beerwah Sunshine Coast Queensland. Find out more online at www. dimensionallydivine.com, www. dimensionallydivine.com.au or on facebook under Dimensionally Divine. You can also ring Vicki on 0409 488 742 for enquires.

When we have emotional upsets or troubles, we have been taught to suck it up and just get over it and move on. So all these pains, upsets, anger etc have not disappeared, they are accumulated within our bodies and especially the heart chakraand they are now full and overflowing and exploding out onto loved ones or whoever is around us -the rages. And this Emotional Baggage, upsets and stresses are repetitively bringing us more and more pain consistently because of the Law of Attraction, until we Clear our alignment. Everything we are seeing in the news now is from the karmic attraction; lots of house fires - witchhunts; chemo - fire energy; baby boy burn - fire energy, beheadings - past guillotine, being shot - shot in past. If it is still the not Cleared, it compounds and blocks our energy flow throughout our body, causing our body to Crumble into sickness, flu, depression or further on, developing into maybe Dis-ease! And Affirmations are causing trauma within the body, as your body/soul is not agreeing with what you mind is enforcing. We need to Clear & realign within. So, let’s just Clear the body at the Cause of these issues, upsets, anxiety & stresses, in the body/soul Energy Emotional field, to create a good realignment and the change needed to then attract and receive Great Health, Happiness and Bliss into our lives. It’s all about just Clearing issues or your body will Crumble! I recommend my Daily 5min Chakra Clearing Dance CD or DVD, the first level of Clearing work, as the Chakras continue to fill up daily, and if your not healthy & happy, I can help you Clear with my powerful Clearing Body Attunement sessions (can be done Remotely) or my Clearing Audio CDs
are available to play over for ongoingly even better results. Check out in the In Brief review in this issue of Innerself for my Receiving Love & Soulmate Clearing. Everyone is needing to do this Heart Chakra Clearing, especially if you already have any health issues around the Heart Chakra area or needing more love in your life. Nothing will change what your now attracting until you choose to Clear or Crumble. I’m now teaching what I do and also PowerUp Workshops for Counsellors, Psychstrists, Readers, Mediums, Vets and all, to add this extra missing link, Energy Emotional Clearing work of the self sabotages & blocks, to their already good work to achieve even more profound results with their clients. Go to my website DebraBright. com for further Workshop details, get your Chakra Dance CD/DVD or Book a personal healing session, to Clear you into great Health Happiness, Bliss & the Ascension on the Planet. And while your at my website, I also have a special gift for you, I’m just writing my first book full of fabulous Energy Knowledge, ‘Can’t See It but You Can Sure Feel It’.

ARTHRITIS, BACK PAIN, JOINT PAIN NEW TREATMENTS TO REGENERATE CARTILAGE ELIMINATE PAIN
Prolozone®
Alternative to Joint Replacement & Drug therapy • Chronic back pain • Chronic neck pain • Degenerated discs • Arthritic ankles • Arthritic hips • Arthritic knees • Heel spurs • Neuromas • Painful scars
• Pelvic disorders • Plantar fasciitis • Post-op pain • Rotator cuff injuries • Sciatica • Sinus infections • Sports injuries • Tennis elbow • TMJ
What causes pain: Localized decreased oxygen utilization produces a localized increase in lactic acid production which is what is responsible for pain. A vicious cycle ensues in which the localized decrease in oxygen utilization leads to increased free radical damage, which leads to increased tissue damage, inflammation, edema, which leads to a further decrease in oxygen utilization, all of which equals chronic pain. It also prevents the body’s stem and blast cells from effectively repairing the damage.
What is Prolozone: Prolozone is a technique that combines the principles of Neural therapy, Prolotherapy and Ozone therapy. It involves injecting combinations of procaine, homeopathic anti-inflammatory medications, vitamins, proliferatives and ozone/oxygen gas into degenerated or injured joints and into areas of pain.The evidence shows that it can be used to regenerate joints and other damaged tissues, and to alleviate pain.
Regeneration of Joint Tissues: Many doctors internationally have used this technique to treat chronic pain conditions and the value of Prolozone is that in the majority of cases it actually corrects the pathology of the disorder and regeneration of tissues such as cartilage or discs have been observed. About 75% of chronic pain sufferers who undergo this therapy become permanently pain free. These treatments are now available at Transformational Medicine Australia in Melbourne. Dr Margaret Ngu is a specialist Integrative Medical doctor of 31 years combining the best of medical with nutritional, botanical, oxidative, acupuncture and bio-energetic therapies. She and her team treats Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Arthritis, Heart Disease, Chronic Infections and Cancer to name a few.

FEATURED THERAPIST Charles Snelleksz-Mathelot Shaman / Transformational Coach / Eco Specialist / Eco Nutritionist My name is Charles Snelleksz-Mathelot and since childhood my passion has been to we ave together nature, spirit and the human being. I have trained in Shamanic, Esoteric, Buddhist and Vedic traditions and I have been so blessed to have been guided and supported by amazing teachers and mentors. I learnt to live my life by the natural laws of the universe and to see the living truth embedded in these laws. Through my training and research with various spiritual tradition, I discovered the fundamental law of creation; the one is in the all and all is in the one. So, in truth, we are co-creating our reality even if we may not realise it. This was my big awakening which changed the way I lived my life. My life is lived through and informed by what I call the Three Sacred Elements of Life; Sacred Service, Sacred Practice and Sacred Community. Sacred Service incorporates service to self, others, creation and Gaia. Sacred Practice is living life through responsibility, knowledge, compassion and gratitude and includes daily ceremonies and prayers. Sacred Community means to share our lives with people who live in accordance with the natural laws of the universe, people who enrich us and are enriched by us. Sacred Community also includes our relationship to Gaia, the universe and all other life forms. I have worked over 30 years with people of all ages, supporting them to awaken to the following living truths embedded within them: • The Natural Laws of the universe • The Three Sacred Elements of Life • Their role as co-creators My service to community is offered through a variety of pathways; medicine wheel work and shamanic practices; sound healing; spiritual mentoring and guidance; healing, manifesting and prayer circles; living nutrition and whatever else I am guided to do. I am very happy to be co-creating with Yes2Life and everyone who joins the Drumming Circle Since childhood Charles' passion has been to weave together nature, spirit and the human being. He has been trained in Shamanic, Esoteric, Buddhist and Vedic traditions and has been blessed to have been guided and supported by amazing teachers and mentors, having learnt to live his life by the natural laws of the universe and to see the living truth embedded in these laws. Through his training and research with various spiritual traditions, he has discovered the fundamental law of creation; the one is in the all and all is in the one. So, in truth, we are co-creating our reality even if we may not realise it. This was his big awakening which changed the way he now lives his life. His life is lived through and informed by what he calls the Three Sacred Elements of Life; Sacred Service, Sacred Practice and Sacred Community. Sacred Service incorporates service to self, others, creation and Gaia. Sacred Practice is living life through responsibility, knowledge, compassion and gratitude and includes daily ceremonies and prayers. Sacred Community means to share our lives with people who live in accordance with the natural laws of the universe, people who enrich us and are enriched by us. Sacred Community also includes our relationship to Gaia, the universe and all other life forms.

"YES" It’s an everyday word, but nothing happens without it. It’s the favorite word of people who get things done. "Yes" opens the door to change, lets the light in and gets the ball rolling. Every idea, invention, project, movement or marriage would starve without it. "Yes" may lead to adventure, risk or even trouble, but “No” leads nowhere. Say "YES to LIFE" and see where it leads you.
