This Revolution Will Be Feminized! My New Book.......

Another page from my new book! 

available for download - 2 files a book & an audio file


Let Me Tell You Why

We need to have people in every region, of every country of every corner on this planet making stuff. We require the women of this earth to rise up and take up their places in small scale manufacturing, inventing, creating and knitting the world back together.

The methods of manufacture, the large scale industrialisation of humanity and the things we are led to believe fulfill our needs; is not only completely unsustainable it is dangerous and quickly destroying the environment.

Anything that harms the natural biodiversity and interferes with the delicate balance of life in this world harms us all. We are ill, sick and dying from the overproduction and over consumption of unnecessary toxic products made from under achieving people who are trained to push their imaginations into dormant states.

We have to fundamentally shift our thinking and then alter our approach to making the things we desire. More than that we must also remove the toxic elements of the things we use and rebuild our planet in the exact image of an evolving higher consciousness that is within the matrix of life itself.

The divine feminine has returned to guide the women of the earth back to own their divine blueprints buried deep within our DNA. These instructions form the basis of an ancient paradigm of knowledge that has never been lost, it has been simply forgotten – stored away for the time when it is needed most.

That time is now.

We are at a critical junction in our story, one where we can proceed along a self-destructive lower consciousness route and destroy everything in our path or choose to rise up, discovering our unique talents and abilities as the enlightened beings that we are and then put them to work in every conceivable way.

It is no longer necessary to think or believe that something is out of your reach or that you cannot do what you would like to do. You are living in a privileged age of over information to the point of confusion. The knowledge is as much ‘out there’ as it is ‘in here’.

What we are lacking is the wisdom to use some of this material for the greater good.

There are no excuses, we can make things, absolutely anything that we want or desire or need or require or have a fleeting wish for – can be made in a non toxic, sustainable manner that harms no one in the making of it.

We can make things on a small-scale manner in homes and sheds and small buildings without creating more toxic waste or contaminating the living biological systems surrounding us.
We can make stuff that does no harm to us, our children, the earth or any living thing on it.

We can choose to use our creative abilities to take back control of the manufacture of the things we use in, on and around our beautiful bodies; we can make our products safe, gentle, practical and an absolute pleasure to have.

Imagine the earth – lead by women, who are rising up and deciding each day to use products that are gently made by the hands of their sisters. From all corners and all regions we can rediscover these ancient arts of healing, growing, gathering and then creating everything we desire from clothing and art to food and technology.

We can reinvent our world using these things that contain the energy of the ancient feminine goddesses who once walked this earth and help sustain and keep her here.

This energy flows through us and is part of who we are. That tiny strand of DNA is awakening and you are buzzing with its’ aliveness!

Stand up and take your place in the Renewable Revolution! You are a part of the feminine energy at work here, a feminine ethic that under pins all that is stirring up at this time of great change.

We are in the middle of our tipping point – women at the helm of this great mother-ship who have had enough of feeling disempowered or left out or left behind and unsupported, who feel a need to reclaim their divine birthright.

Years ago, in the last few years of the previous century, the planet earth, Gaia, decided of her own accord to raise her consciousness. She decided to come back from wherever she has been in her dormancy, to no longer let things happen to her, but to be an active participant in all that takes place here.

She cannot do this alone.

The earth needs people like us to reduce the toxic load, to actively create sustainable living and work environments that honour her and to teach those who are following behind us, they are walking on sacred ground.

This revolution will be feminized!

Your mission, should you accept, is to be yourself.

To celebrate that fact that you are a woman at this time in her story, a person who chooses to own her gifts, access her destiny and proceed to help create a world that only has existed in our dreams.


Together we will create our new world.

My New Book!

I have my new book (comes with bonus material audio file) available for download! Check it out here! 





Introduction

There is so much to be said for the times we are waking up in; the least of which is all the change that must take place in order for the human race to rise enough to take up their missions and purposes on this wonderful planet.

The greatest of times call on the most ordinary people to take on tremendous paths and anchor specific energy in certain locations throughout the earth – vibrations and awareness that envelop and shape all of us as we walk through these first steps out of the darkness and into the light.

Women are being called to resume their posts and to open up their hearts, dust off their dreams and put them into action. All over the world women are waking up, looking around them and wanting to create something better.

For everyone.

So, if you are just starting out or if you have been marching to the music in your own soul for many years, or even if you feel completely lost and disconnected and longing to discover who you really are; your mission is waiting for you to claim it.

To be honest, I was never drawn to business. I never knew I had it in me to start up, develop and run a successful anything. I was only ever told and thus believed the opposite.

It wasn’t until I was backed into a corner so far and let down by so many that I had to come out of this shell and make things work in my life better than they ever had before.

I was tired of living pay-check to pay-check, following someone else’s ideas of how the world should be, all the while pushing parts of myself down into despair. I knew there had to be another way and if there wasn’t – well then, I would invent one.

If you are really ready to take a leap of faith, to not let anyone stand in your way and to only trust in the inner guiding voice that connects you to all of life and creation, you will be Universally supported in finding your mission and developing your purpose.

Finding, following and then creating a better life is not for everyone; it takes a little bit of a rebel to go against the tide and do what must be done and to not back down. Being female is the greatest asset you can have, your inner compass has already activated and it’s leading you towards your mission.

Are you ready to rise?

A New Book is Coming Soon!

Below is a tiny excerpt from my new book 

'Women's Business - A Divine Blueprint'


So, What is Your Blueprint? 


A blueprint is an early stage plan or design which explains how something might be developed. It is a clear model or pattern from which you shape a building, a business and a life. 

 What sort of patterns have emerged in your life so far? Are you marching to your own beat or can you not even hear your voice because of the roar from the world around you? Are you aware that you were born with a blueprint designed to emerge and come into being during such a time as this? 

There are ancient patterns built into your DNA that activate, reassemble and are triggered by all that is taking place around you. We often refer to it as waking up. What is really happening when you are waking up, is that this ancient coding within your cellular matrix is triggered by events, people, viruses, stress, pH and so forth, so that it can become active and so can you. 

We were born for times such as this. 

 But more than that; we are also designed for times such as this. 

Your divine destiny is only an amino acid away from creating the life of your dreams.

Healthy Eating Patterns

Healthy Eating Patterns

So, here we are in the post New Year haze of too much eating and drinking considering the coming year ahead of us, personally I like to think of these feast times as necessary – our gut bacteria must have a ball!

Thankfully there are seasons to eat, drink and make merry, and there are spaces in between to eat normally just as there are times it is best to fast and let our digestive systems empty out, rest and repair.

Many of us are busy getting back to our usual meals and portions right about now and feeling all the better for it. A new year is a great time to create better ways of feeding ourselves, as always, small changes pay large dividends diet wise. 

However, I know for myself, making the transition back to healthy eating after indulgence was always a struggle. I am hearing from people already about how difficult it is to switch off from the 2 weeks of feasting and get back into a normal pattern.

It has got me thinking, exactly what is a healthy eating pattern and why are so many people struggling with food the way it is presented and the typical diet as we have come to believe it should be.

I remember sharing the way I eat with some of my professional colleagues a couple of years ago, only to be shot down and nearly shouted down – so outrageous was my suggestion. For myself. I was only referring to myself in the conversation, yet there was such a fearful response as if they couldn’t run fast enough to get away from what I was saying.

I have been thinking about it ever since.

Many of you know that a few years ago, I had spent several years intermittent fasting and found a much more suitable approach to food for myself and my family. A lot of change came from that time for me, certainly the least of which had to do with food.

It also set me thinking, exactly what is a healthy eating pattern and why are so many people struggling with food the way it is presented and the 'typical diet', the way we are informed is a normal way to eat, doesn’t appear to fit with health?

I mean, the only ones who are to gain from all of us eating 3 meals and 3 snacks a day are the multi national food producers. And of course the illness industry because all of that food is making us sick. We are eating too much, too often, mostly of the same things. 

Enough already, you are thinking – what way do you eat?

So, I eat one meal a day and once a month I fast for 3 days on juice.

Typically, every day I prepare one meal, unless it’s my birthday or a special occasion or a holiday. Even this past holiday season, we generally ate one large celebratory meal a day, but had snacks or late desserts because it was a special time with special treats.

There was NO big transition back to normal eating. And there hasn’t been when I am eating this way, because I still have the one meal in the middle of the day (give or take). I can eat what I want, as much as I want and have dessert at the end, if I want.

The only difference after Christmas is the really rich desserts and late evening snacks are gone, but so are the late nights – so my routines are back to normal as well.

I have been eating this way for about 2 ½ years and here is what I have found;

I tend to eat less than I would if I was eating 3 meals a day.
I have more energy, as less time is spent digesting food.
I sleep better, because I eat earlier in the day.
I get far more done!
Cooking is simple – one 4 course meal a day, everyone pitches in.
Incorporating a 3 day juice fast is very easy.
Adding in exercise is easier, because my tummy isn’t full am or pm.
I eat a wider variety of foods.

For quite some time I have been talking to anyone who will listen, about the way we have been trained to eat, because it has seemed to be all wrong, at least for many of us. If 3 meals and 3 snacks a day suit you and you feel fantastic eating that way – wonderful!

However, if I ate breakfast, I would be snacking all evening. If I skipped breakfast, no snacking and not as hungry the rest of the day, that was my absolute first clue that the three meals a day thingy was no good for me.

It was only a few days ago that I realized I remember being vegan, eating extremely healthfully (no sugar, no gluten) and feeling tired after my main meal, back then I was eating 3 meals a day. Now, I can jump up from my dinner with the same energy as my children and run up to the gardens to get some work in before it gets dark.

Eating this way has made a huge difference to my health, my lifestyle and my time.

Todays’ meal was all prepared by me in ½ hour to 45 minutes except oven time (I had the sourdough started in the early morning)

Sourdough pizza topped with artichoke pate, mushrooms, red onion, goats cheese, Bonita tuna & olives
Brown rice cooked with cinnamon & turmeric with stir fry vegetables of beans, carrots, onions, fennel, broccoli, mushrooms and fish
Sourdough toast with peanut butter & jam
Kombucha to drink & sesame honey almond treats for dessert.

There was enough for everyone with loads left over for another meal tomorrow. This meal fed 5 people today - everyone had seconds.

If you find your digestion is over burdened with too much food, perhaps skipping a meal now and then might be the way to get started towards a healthier new you.
