What is your 'wonderful' ?

I am a women who has lived on a farm near Young in New South Wales for the past 23 years and I have been country based all my life. I wonder sometimes if this is why I have such a strong connection to nature and if others see the environment with the same intrigue that I do. Our four daughters absolutely love coming back to the farm and in the holidays they don't really want to do anything else aside from ride horses, go out and help Howard on the farm and play with the new puppies. Personally my connection with nature has expanded these days and as long as I can see the sunrise and walk under some big old trees daily, I am happy.

This year I have raised the bar in what I expect of myself on many levels. Over the past few months I have increased my fitness, improved my yoga practice, watched my eating patterns and shifted thoughts and emotions to a higher standard. Consequently my lifestyle is reflecting these choices. Anything seems possible and life feels free, open, abundant and stunningly beautiful. As I travel from our city and country bases, I feel excited to be exploring what happiness means to me and the family. I am making plans where to set up meditation clinics in both Sydney and Young, to begin teaching Dru yoga and meditation again.

When you feel fabulous you just want to share it but no one can get you fit, healthy or happy, you have to take responsibility for creating this for yourself.

So I will ask you the questions I answered honestly for myself..

In what areas of your life are you limiting yourself?
Where are the boundaries and why are they there?
What if you imagined more was possible....What if you knew it was possible to awaken a truly healthy body and have all the discipline you needed to support high energy levels.

What if you stopped trying to fit the mould of what someone else thinks you should be and you started getting clear on your own unique lifestyle?

What are you willing to do to live the life of your dreams?

I didn't think it would be possible to be in Sydney so regularly but once I gave it a try, the opportunities for our farm business grew. We are developing areas of direct marketing that are very exciting but I have stepped back from being as involved in the farm this year, to be able to dust of a few off my own goals. A life that includes the bush and the ocean feels wonderful to me.

So what is your 'wonderful'?

Bribbaree Show, One direction, Boarding School and Hay Making. What a week!!

#Champion Bloom of the Show!! One Direction Concert Breakfast at Bronte Beach Mowing Hay Yo u wouldn’t believe what I have been doing in the past week. The local Bribbaree Show was on during the final weekend of the school holidays so our 2 youngest girls entered a few events on their horses and Howard joined in the team penning. I walked around with our eldest daughter, passing some very well groomed dogs on our way to the equestrian area. The show ground was filling with families and local women were dropping off cakes and sandwich fillings at the canteen, while the children convinced their parents to let them go on some rides. Howard entered a big red rose for me, that had opened in our garden a few days earlier and I am pleased to ‘announce’ that we won ‘Best Bloom of the Show’. What fun!! We had tea, sandwiches and cake for lunch, Howard skipping the fatty food this year. By late afternoon we gathered with everyone for a cool drink befor

Can creativity be good for our health?

Hello, It has been a while between blogs but as my intention for 2023 is to write full time, I should manage a regular post once again. Writing has always been something I do early in the morning or in the tiny spaces in between all else, but this year I am putting creativity at the top of my priority list. If you know me well, you would know I have always wanted to write a book. The sensible project would be to share what I have learnt over the past 12 years about health, yoga, breath work and mindfulness, to support the healing of trauma and rural challenges, but at the moment it is a farm based novel that is flowing well. Perhaps all of the above topics will turn up in the lives of my characters, we will see. It is so liberating, giving myself permission to do what I love, here on the farm. Although on some level it also feels isolating to be here on my own each day at the desk. The opportunity to witness this landscape from this quiet space feels deeply healing and quite confront

Discovering Meditation in small stages - 3 Audio Recordings attached.

10.11.23 Discovering Meditation If I can define meditation in the simplest way, I would say meditation is ‘ being in the space in between our thoughts .’ Meditation is no ‘easy’ task when we have over 70 000 thoughts a day. This is why I stepped todays class through a 3-stage process, in preparation for a brief meditation experience. Below is an explanation of each of these stages I taught and why these techniques are great preparation for potent stillness. Stage 1. It is more challenging to meditate with lots of tension in the body, so the first step is to let go of the extra holding that we may not even be aware of. This is done by noticing the body and slightly moving each area, or tensing and releasing each body part. (Starting at the feet, legs, spine and then the belly as we breathe. Open and close the hands, stretch the arms, lift and drop the shoulders, carefully stretch the neck and face.) Stage 2. Secondly, we can begin to be more aware of our breathing patt
