  • Two great things in life

    Two great things in life

    We have the capacity to contribute good to the world on a daily basis and
    amongst all of the bustle of life’s journey, I think there are two really great
    things we can achieve as humans on this planet. Not all of us are able or
    want to, but these two are special;


    Create a human life
    If it’s what’s lined up for you in life, creating another human being that will live on and contribute to the betterment of the world is a wonderful thing. It may be the best thing you will ever do on this planet.


    Save a life
    If you happen to be in the situation where it’s required, where you have the skills and someone is in need of help – save someone’s life. It may be that you redirect someone away from danger, warn them, physically drag them out of it, or otherwise – but do it. Save their life so that they can live on and better the world. We never know what that person will become, achieve or effect in the world in the future.


    A while back my team and I made a thing, it teaches you first aid skills and it might help you save a life. It was the precursor to the current set of online first aid courses available at St John WA. More info: https://stjohnwa.com.au/first-aid-

  • Gifting your energy

    Gifting your energy

    You can gift your energy to others and there’s lots of ways to do it. 

    And you can send it right across the world.

    One of my favourites, is the energy blast at the end of a phone call. 

    The way I do it is, get all of your talking out of the way. 

    Then slow the pace and energy of your goodbye down, then just before you hang up .. 

    Give them a blast by saying something like, “okay let’s grab that coffee and let’s gooooo babeee!”

    The pick me up energy lifts the other person back up and connects the energy with their next action. 

    Other ways are, a randomly timed txt with an uplifting message. 

    I send drawings, it’s a surprise and a thought provoker. 

    Random is good timing. Most people like to know you are in their thoughts. 

    Smile at a stranger in the shop. I love doing this one too. 

    The energy a smile can transfer is crazy. 

    If you lock eyes with someone and the vibe is right, flash them your biggest smile. 

    It’s the best. I’ve literally had my mood lifted and day made by someone doing this. 

    Gift your energy. You might make someone’s day or week. 

  • Thoughts are luminous

    Thoughts are luminous

    Thoughts are information and signals about what’s going for us.

    When you have a confusing thought, pause and look at it from a distance.

    Ask what is it telling you, what message is it bringing to you?

    Sit in the dark with the thought and let it light up the backstory.

    Thoughts are luminous, they light up what’s important for us at the time.

  • Do kind things, take no credit

    Do kind things, take no credit

    Do kind things.

    Ignore your ego and any taking of credit.

    Let your soul give, be the angel.

  • Praying for peace

    Praying for peace

    There’s a lot going on in the world.

    Peace seems like a much better choice.

    Don’t forget to give yourself as much kindness as you do to others.
