Celebrate

 Everyday is an occasion
But how do we mark it?
Do we market the moments that matter
As profound as the significance they shatter
Into our heart, our gut, our soul?
The veritable fiesta felt from human experience
The celebration of simply living.

 Bloom

 Bloom - 
To night, the ready seed is dawn
Rooted in impassioned dedication to rise, to grow,
To spawn a life so enriched it emits a contented glow,
exuding the 
Enlightened air of potential's perfume.
Notice the nudge to blossom;
The call to bloom.

 Truth

 To which fallacies do we subscribe
Expecting efficacy to exist?
Alluding to escort us towards bliss -
A different world we wish to imbibe.

 Pause.
Identify the truth
Rescind the other.

 ***

 Move

 There is a way
Invisible to eyes with lenses of fear,
But, in taking the step, the stones appear
Committing to courage forges the way through,
'Stuck' is a myth, a swamp, a ruse
It is not a word applicable to you.

 Waves of Freedom

 Ebb & Flow
Inhale, exhale - deep & slow
The continuous made conscious,
Free to come, free to go.

 Today

 Today: 
Cement the intent inspired 
By the 'whoops' and 'what ifs' of days of days past
Yesterday is but a closed door
Today, it's ultimate contrast -
A blank page, an untouched path
A renewed route within our very grasp.

 ***

 See

 A treasure of surprise
Awaits opened eyes
When the lids heavy with 'busy' lift
Perception undergoes a shift
The world, instantly maximised
Transforms the norm into a gift.

Set. Rest. Rise.

Image
Set, rest, rise again.

In this process it transforms, dissolves, descends - its undoing, an art in itself, Built on brushstrokes of goodbye,
The composition illuminates the fiery sky -
A bold farewell to the day.

No concern for what has passed, unencumbered by what may be. The day is settled. The sun's job for now, complete.
Set, rest, rise again.
Its return, is another exquisite piece,
Dictating to darkness that now it must cease Emerging gently, gradually creating its display
A dynamic kaleidoscopic embrace -
Though a repetitive routine, never a repeat
Each new rising unveiling its own expressive feat.
Set, rest, rise again.

Cementing Self Security

Image
It's come to light more and more the insidious hold insecurity has on us as a society these days. Sadly, it's as though it's become normalised to just not feel good about ourselves; we put ourselves down in feigned modesty or 'politeness', we feed into the pursuit of a perfected image, we try to be someone or something we're not, we're more jealous and anxious, lost and unsure.

You can see it everywhere; in the messages we're receiving, the actions we take, the behaviours we engage in.

Many of us just find it impossible to believe or feel that we are actually worthy, deserving or good enough as we are at any given time.

We mightn't even realise how deep it runs either, but it could definitely be affecting our day-to-day in a profoundly negative and sabotaging way.

Personally, I've had enough of seeing the effects of the 'not good enough affliction'. I've had enough of seeing beautiful, lovable people completely oblivious of their worth, …

11 Ways to Enhance Experiences

Image
As you might know, I've spent the last year on a working holiday in New Zealand (hence the lack of posts and load of instagrams 😁) . For 8 months of that, I've had the pleasure of living and working in the 8th Wonder of the World, Milford Sound.

This has hands down been one of the most amazing experiences I've gotten to enjoy; being immersed daily in this stunning place with amazing people and countless new experiences and adventures. I honestly couldn't have asked for more from it (not even better functioning internet or mobile signal!)

As with any new experience, particularly for the sensitive souls like myself, it has definitely come with new learnings, the occasional challenge and some acclimatising, but ultimately these all just came together to give a wealth of thorough enjoyment.

New environments and new experiences can bring different things depending on our mindset, perspective and attitude at the time. If we're showing up to these for example with a self we…
