Love is not a four-letter word
I love love. Love is a many splendid thing, love lifts us up where we belong. All we need is love. Well, I disagree with that last one – I think we need more than love. We need faith, and discernment, adventure and truth. But hey, how much wisdom can I really expect from pop… Read more “Love is not a four-letter word”
Reaching for me
Our identity is a scared object. Our being-in-the-world is creational mastery in expression. The very fact of our existence is proof of how marvellous we are. And yet, being human can be hard. The interplay between our own identity and other people’s is where the joy of life is as well as the pain. We… Read more “Reaching for me”

The Path of Self-connection
Beyond all opinions, ideas and moralising is a realm of knowing that is visceral, intuitive, inspired and personal. It is the integrating and becoming of your holy trinity of body|mind|spirit – a singular weaving of will and flesh that is your temple, your canvas, your being-in-motion. Through self-connection we learn what cannot be taught. we… Read more “The Path of Self-connection”

The Myth of Self-harm
Words can give us all sorts of wrong ideas about things. When I think of self-harming I immediately think of stories I’ve heard of people cutting their own bodies. I’ve never done this. I have driven along a road a night with my eyes closed daring myself to keep them closed as long as I… Read more “The Myth of Self-harm”

We are always touching something
We are always touching something. We touch things, people, ideas, archetypes, sounds, substances, sensations, thoughts, the infinite and the indescribable. Everything we do, we do within an ocean of touch. We are never not touching something. I say this to draw your attention to the plain truth that may be hidden from you. It can… Read more “We are always touching something”

Catalysis
DARKNESS GROWS Change begins with where you are, and Growth is what you’d like to see. You must die to what you are, to become what you are to be.

It’s the little things that loom so big
It’s always the little things that loom so big I have a panic response. It starts with shortening of my breath. A tightening in my gut region. It moves into my mind and i start to look for exits. I think, where can I go, what can I do, how do I escape? Anxiety rises.… Read more “It’s the little things that loom so big”

Homecoming
Clarity can sometimes be a hard one thing. I realised today at the age of 39 that for most of my life I have sought fulfilment in the world of form. I realised today that truly, my heart is not in it. I was with a woman last night, a beautiful and funny woman, sexually… Read more “Homecoming”

My life as a sinner
Looking into the reflection of Christ I see my own faults and failings. I know about love through Grace, kindness, truthfulness and humility and I know about love’s absence through separation, conceit, enmity and hollowness. In me, I see the ways I love and the ways I don’t. I’m sitting in a cafe reading CS… Read more “My life as a sinner”

Balance is found in the movement of opposites
Here’s a joke. A man sits outside, observing everything from a distance. He scorns the world he sees and yearns for it. The king of a lonely kingdom. Arrogant humble embarrased ashamed Superior inferior

Healing beyond therapy
Christ said, “your back is healed. Know me now through movement”. So I got up and went tree climbing. Hours later, I’m pain free in my back. Movements that’d normally bring me pain are painless. What is going on here? Am I being healed by a power greater than therapy? I pressed pause on my… Read more “Healing beyond therapy”

7 things I’ve learned about movement this week
This last week, I have spent a lot of time moving in the Australian Bush. Hiking, strolling, climbing trees, sitting, laying, standing. I have also been doing a body awareness practice in the mornings and trauma release therapy. Throughout this immersion I have been attending to the feelings and sensations in my body and being… Read more “7 things I’ve learned about movement this week”

Deepening my walk with God
There is no way I can talk about soulcraft or practice therapy without acknowledging God, Christ and the Great Mystery of Life. It has taken my until my 38th year to admit what i always knew, I am a man of God. I grew up in a household that did not practice religion. Perhaps rightly… Read more “Deepening my walk with God”
