I’ve often wondered what it would be like to live my life all over again and make different decisions with the foreknowledge of what my life would look like if I had ‘turned left’ instead of right. I’ve fantasized about transplanting my present moment consciousness into a younger age with the full wisdom and personal …
With the deepening awareness of conscious awakening and the unfolding understanding that comes from a life of sobriety and integration, I have found many concepts that have been tossed around by authors (myself included) to hold truths. There is no doubt that we tap into the subconscious when we authors channel our literary dances into prose and …
In 1990 Cyril Christo travelled to Hotevilla, in the Arizona desert where the last of the traditional Hopi Mesas are. The people that have lived there for hundreds of generations have not known war, they are farmers who live in deep connection with the land they have occupied for millennia. Christo had the chance to …

I lived in Byron Bay on two separate occasions in 1997. Firstly, in the winter of that year for around two weeks, and then for another six weeks later in the year. The Byron region would be instrumental for me as I made enormous shifts in conscious awareness and gained a greater understanding of the …
I had no intention of practicing the CE5 protocols when I went to Wright’s Hill in Karori that Friday night. The plant medicine I had taken had elevated my mood, and I felt buoyant and mischievous as I drove up into the ranges. Arriving at my destination, I got out of my car giggling as …
When the pressure of my childhood trauma had compounded in my late adolescence, I was subject to a spiritual awakening that reintroduced me to levels of existence that had vanished when life became about survival. My conscious awareness began to allocate an acceptance that there were no limits to my imagination and that a myopic …
When the country of my birth, Aotearoa/New Zealand lifted its four week house arrest (to stop everyone getting the flu) in May 2020, I was guided by my work colleague to check out Dr. Steven Greer’s latest documentary, Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind: Contact Has Begun.
