Soulful Being

Wow! Could one possibly receive any better feedback?!

Today's sound energy session with a discussants community group focused on the solar plexus, tapping in and opening the flow of golden sun energy, something we all need especially while our winter season is still here with us yet out busy lives have not allowed for the slowing down and drawing inwards.

Hope you enjoyed some delightful sunshine today 💛 ✨️ 🌞

Life as a grown up these days is so busy and demanding, so much to take seriously. This leaves zero time and energy to lighten things up, have some fun, feel joy and laughter.

Taking time out in Thailand reminded me of this important aspect of mindful living.
With never ending pressures its easy to forgo playfulness, but can see all joy dry up in your life, skewing the balance. As the saying goes: "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"

We have to make conscious effort to set aside time to let go of all the serious stuff in life. Carving out time as much as is possible in your day, your week or maybe each month.

Ask yourself- what brings you joy?
Write a list down of all the things that have brought joy in the past, consider adding new things you are yet to try. Then set some time aside in your schedule and make a promise to yourself to invite more fun.

Once you do it, I assure you, you won't regret it 💙✨️💙

So grateful to be here in Thailand taking a much needed break from the chaos and winter back home.
🇹🇭🌞✨️

The Magical World of Mushrooms: The Vital Role of Fungi in Nature

🍄 Interconnectedness
Fungi are the unsung heroes of our ecosystems, weaving intricate networks beneath our feet. Through their mycelial networks, they connect trees, plants, and even entire forests in a vast web of communication and mutual support.

🌱 Transformation & Soil Creation
Mushrooms are nature's recyclers. They break down organic matter, transforming dead plants and animals into rich, fertile soil. This process is essential for nutrient cycling, maintaining soil health, and supporting plant growth.

🍴 Food Source
From gourmet delicacies to essential nutrients, mushrooms are a versatile and nutritious food source. They provide a range of flavours, textures, and health benefits, making them a staple in cuisines around the world.

💊 Medicinal Powerhouses
Beyond the plate, mushrooms have been used for millennia in traditional medicine. They contain bioactive compounds with potential therapeutic properties, offering treatments for a variety of ailments and contributing to human health and wellness.

⚠️ Caution: Toxic and Poisonous Varieties
While many mushrooms offer valuable benefits, it's crucial to remember that some species are toxic or poisonous to humans and animals. Proper identification is essential when foraging or consuming wild mushrooms to avoid potential harm.

🌐 The Mycelium Network
The mycelium, or the "root system" of fungi, is a marvel of nature's engineering. It not only supports the growth of mushrooms but also plays a crucial role in nutrient absorption, soil structure, and ecosystem resilience.

May we never forget all that was sacrificed for the lifestyles we are free to choose to live today.

May all beings on earth find peace, love and compassion in their hearts- so that all suffering, fear and hate no longer rules.

🖤♥️🖤

Happy Earth Day!
