Our Nature is Divine


It is in our truest nature is to be exquisite. To glow, sparkle and shine with radiant health. The human potential has the divine possibility to reflect nature in all her glorious splendour. Each one of us has the ability to radiate our raw magnetism.

When we re-indulged our senses back into our deepest source – our nature – we become one with ourselves, and with everything else. Like a child we give ourselves permission to become ecstatic and re-experience all the magnitude and rich offerings of life. The universe is calling you. Come play.

EARTH – The Body

Exercise:  Choosing to get out of your head and into your body, is probably the most profound decision you will ever make. Important for optimum health and wellness, and essential as common sense nutrition, moving your body is key.  Keeping it varied and approaching it with the fresh and innocent eyes of a child, will encourage you to get up, go out and just do it, again and again.

Nutrition: The human body has not evolved much over the past few thousand years. However, our foods, the additives, preservatives, the other hidden ingredients and preparation/preservation have. Everything is sweetened, salted, flavour enhanced, preserved by chemical additives and pre-packed. Most of the dis-eases of the past 50 yrs (esp. Obesity) can be attributed to convenience foods and sedentary life-style. The quicker it gets from the earth to your table, the better – eat fresh!

Holistic Therapies: Indulging your senses in the array of incredible and relaxing therapies available in this day and age is paramount. Finding ways which encourage your bodymind to de-stress, unwind and let go, has to happen. Passive relaxation and therapeutic processes are so important these days. It’s a transpersonal thing.

Meditation: “Everyone should meditate for at least 20mins every day, unless of course you’re too busy.. Then you should meditate for an hour!” Finding space in your day to focus on the gaps between the thoughts is the way to begin to exist in the now. It may be a moving meditation or sitting in stillness. Find what works for you and create space.


Nature: Spending time in nature is an opportunity to connect with the very essence of life itself. Whenever you sit in awe of the divine, remember it is your truest potential to reflect the radiance of her. Find what makes your heart sing and your eyes smile.

Reactivity v/s Responsivity

"Reactivity can occur in any of the bodies systems, Emotions, Energy Flow, Electromagnetics, Biochemistry, Thought Processes, Beliefs and so on. In a reactive state it is not easy or even possible to be responsive and to make choices." - WOTT Manuel, 2013

Have you ever "reacted" or been "reactive"? For many of us re-activity is a bodily response which we seem to have little or no control over when we find ourselves in stress related situations.

This state of being re-active is not always as it seems. It can occur in any of the bodies systems and can control our behaviour in many unconscious ways:

Emotions: Aggressive, Passive Aggressive, Aloof, Poor Me, Anger, Rage, Depression etc.

Energy Flow: Low Energy, Tiredness, Exhaustion, Chronic Fatigue, also resulting in dis-ease in the body.

Electromagnetics: Energy Blocks in the physical body or one of the many subtle bodies or aura etc.

Biochemistry: Difficulty in the absorption or distribution of nutrients, acid/alkali balance, eruptions, inflammation etc.

Thought Processes: "I am not good enough", "I am not worthy", "I am a disappointment" etc.

Beliefs: Sex is sinful, Money is evil, Success is wrong, Other religious drivers etc.

You may recognise one or more of these states of being as usual aspects of your life expression. And you wouldn't be wrong. We have come to see these many re-active states as something of the norm.

Re-activity does not just manifest as getting angry or bursting out crying (although it does also include these states). More often than not re-activity is hidden in unconscious behavioural patterns and mental drivers which can effect not only our relationships and behaviour in the world, but also our physical health and states of ease or dis-ease in the body.

These states of dis-ease can manifest as anything from eczema and acne to shallow breathing and depression - and everything in between.

The first step to learning responsive behaviours and encouraging your body to act in a responsive way is to uncover the limiting unconscious behaviours which are holding you back or keeping you stuck in re-active patterns and ways of being.

Once we see what our habitual patterns and re-active states are, we can begin to change and re-introduce responsive states back into every aspect of the body/mind/heart/spirit.

The simplest, easiest and cheapest way you can begin to heal yourself is through the gentle art of breathing.

So, the next time you feel yourself moving into a re-active state, do yourself and everyone else a favour: STOP, CLOSE YOUR EYES, COUNT TO 10 and BREATHE slowly and gently. Bring yourself back into your core, where a state of ultimate health resides. Rest here for as long as you need to until you are able to respond in a healthy way.
