How a Dung Beetle Can Show You Your Way


posted in Articles, Jane's Blog

You know how something you already know sometimes just lands inside you in a different way? Well, this is what happened when I heard my friend Cat saying “Knowing who you are, what you offer, and who you offer it to is crucial.”

She is a great motivational coach and speaker and so I paid attention. These are all elements of a bigger journey though, which is knowing where you are going in the first place.

The African dung beetle is a creature that, although small, with a brain about the size of a grain of rice, knows exactly where it is going. It finds dung, rolls it into balls, and then goes in the direction of home. [read more]

Have you ever come home from the shops, looked at what you bought, and wondered why on earth you spent your precious money on the item in front of you?

If you have, what did you do then? Go back to the shops and return it? Keep it but didn’t feel good about it? Or were you able to reconcile what you bought and find enjoyment in it?

It is so easy to spend money unconsciously these days, particularly if you are spending with a card. There’s a huge difference between cash and cards, and if you don’t know what I mean, try not using your card for a week and you’ll find out. Handing over £50 on your card, [read more]

Robben Island Inspiration


posted in Jane's Blog

Robben Island has become a huge tourist attraction, not surprisingly. Lying half an hour’s trip in a large boat across Table Bay, you can choose from one of 4 tours on a daily basis. Given that the boat holds up to 300 people, you can see what I mean about it being a tourist attraction. Then when you get there, tour buses are available which take you round the island, with charming tour guides telling the stories about the various buildings.

Why did I want to go? Because since I’ve been here, it’s been hard to take in what has happened in recent history in this lovely country. I felt I needed the solid evidence to show me the reality [read more]

Table Mountain Terrors

Whew! Well, were there terrors? Only in my imagination beforehand

I’ve been afraid of heights all my life until a couple of years ago when I decided to just stop it. I had to take some practical steps with this intention of course, and the fear was met, recognised and allowed on my way up the 100 foot high viewing tower in the Culbin Forest near me in Forres.

So, did I manage it? Yes! With a bit of hand-holding [read more]

A guest article by Stacie Whitney

If you missed Part 1 of this article, you can read it here. It ended with the question:

Is it enough in life to “just do what we love?”

I ask you:

If that’s not the point of life, then what is?

A few weeks ago, came this wild idea that my work is just about doing what I love, focusing on that, and therefore creating more of the same. In other words, if I keep focused on the positive, then my natural energetic state and vibration will keep increasing, to the point where I will just attract more positivity & higher frequency opportunities.

Is this a safe way to do business? [read more]
