Prioritising what’s important. The Great Reset (not Klaus Scwhab’s).

Whose Klaus Schwab? You ask that question and you’ve been caught in the COVID 19 distraction, and its reverberations throughout the global society. The two are interlinked, Klaus Schwab is the Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum, you know the one that meets at Davos every year to openly discuss how to get …

Integration and Assimilation. A Continuing Process Made Real.

It’s been an age since I’ve blogged, and with good reason. The process of assimilation of what has been changing, leaving, manifesting, anchoring into my being, my heart, my life experience has been so intense that I needed to simply be grounded in action.

All roads lead to parihaka. Te Raukura, the Feather of Peace.

My whakapapa on my father’s father’s side of the family goes back to Opunake, Te Atiawa (Taranaki Maori Iwi/tribe).

Anchoring In, Dropping Down, Grounding in Nature.

During the global smackdown, I have felt the call away from the hustle and bustle of the technological, residential, cultural mayhem of the city. I’m fortunate enough to live in a city that has nature coursing through it like veins of a great heart, one carved up until its parts remain in the highest and most inhospitable locales …
