Are you aware you have an infinite connection with everything in the universe?  That no matter how much you love to 'be alone' (or hate it!) you are never truly alone? 

When you sit quietly in nature, do you feel alone, or do you feel connected with every grain of sand... every tiny creature... and every molecule that has ever been? 

When we have peace with the sense of being alone and yet are totally connect with everything, we no longer make 'alone' a wrongness. Often, with this peace, our feelings of loneliness dissipate with ease if we are willing to allow this change to show up. 

This sense of peace is what allows us to more tangibly connect with people and other living creatures in a way that is a gift to all. Have you noticed how much more people want to spend time with you when you have a sense of peace in your world rather than loneliness?

So next time you are feeling alone, would you be willing to quietly sense your total connection with everything that is, everything that has ever been, and everything that ever will be?  The vastness of sensing our connection to the universe in this way truly is extraordinary...

What is your sense of being alone?  And how would you like it to be?

For me, I celebrate my 'alone' times... there's not nearly enough of them anymore!

Artist Kate Hartman takes us on a tour of communication that makes the world look just a little different to the everyday... Her TED talk is quirky, creative and offers an intriguing underlying message about how we can all connect with each other and the things around us in unexpected ways...

Some of us already recognise that everything has energy... Kate takes us to a place where we can visually tap into that energy and see different possibilities for communication.  I found the part about glaciers especially insightful... how do we connect and communicate with people who have a glacial exterior?   Enjoy!

My favourite Auntie sent me these beautiful pictures this morning... it reminded me of how important it is that we know we belong, no matter how different we are! 

I am always so grateful for the support of my family and the friends I have had since I was young (ok, I still am young ;-)  They know me and love me whatever I'm choosing for my life - even if it looks a little crazy to them!

Today is a day for basking in the love of those you know love you without judgment... and that includes yourself... spend a few minutes without judging yourself for anything and see how much more peaceful you are!

Wishing you a day filled with serenity, joy and celebrating the difference you BE!

My head is spinning.  Six long deep insightful extraordinary conversations in less than a week and more on the way...  I feel like Alice in Wonderland… my exploration of just Being was the cake. Eating it with delight spun me into the rabbit-hole.  Now I’m in an awesome wonderland of possibilities I had no idea existed just a week ago. WOW, how does it get even better than that?

If you’ve met me, you’ll know I love a good conversation.  I love exploring new possibilities, discovering more about the mysteries of the universe and what else is possible...  Love creating new ideas out of serendipitous moments, casual encounters and conscious collaborations.  This is my idea of bliss – in living and business.

Last week all of that and more showed up like a waterfall after a storm, washing away the old debris and cascading a flow of awareness beyond my imagination.  Ideas are falling together with ease. Connections are showing up as lightly as a butterfly floats from flower to flower.  There has been much joy, laughter and awesome aha moments… the path into wonderland truly is bliss!

I started BlissTribe knowing it was demanding to exist, but not knowing what it was, what it was to create and generate or what it looked like in a tangible sense (yes I know you are probably thinking that’s pretty strange for a business coach who can see connections in everything!!).  I didn’t even know why the name… I just had a knowing that the name was perfect…

For almost twelve months I have found it difficult to put into words and impossible to explain my vision – I could feel the magic of it but it was still very intangible.  So I’ve been playing with what it feels like, but not really knowing what it is… that creative, out of control ‘what else is possible?’ energy has become very familiar in the past year!

Each of us has turning points where nothing will ever be the same in our lives. These conversations have delivered that beyond measure for me. The missing pieces of the puzzle were delivered with ease and I am standing on the highest mountaintop in wonderland, seeing paths connect in the most perfect of ways!  Like an oil painting, the layers are forming a vision way beyond what I first imagined.

When we choose to step up into our potency, our being and our joy, the universe delivers infinite possibilities.  This week I felt to connect with people that feel good to me, that felt aligned to my (previously unexplainable) vision, even though on the surface I wasn’t at all clear what the connection was in most cases.

These conversations were full of joy, freely and naturally exploring our individual projects and ideas from the energy of “what can we contribute and how can we collaborate?” This expansive curiosity has delivered the most stunning ideas, possibilities and potentials for creating new adventures for all of us. I’ll share more on the tangible outcomes as they start to take shape!

The essence of this experience is one we can all have if we choose.  If you are willing to be the energy of the awesome project you desire to bring into the world (even if you don’t know what it looks like yet), you will attract a buzz of people who want to taste the essence of your special nectar.  

When you are willing to explore possibilities without having a point of view about there needing to be a purpose or an outcome, just having conversations and connections for the joy of it, you are BEing the essence of your business or project and you are tapping into the space of oneness where we are all connected.  It is this that creates the magic.  Go forth into the world and create more than you ever dreamed possible… when you BE the flow, the doing becomes effortless!  It really is as simple as ‘What’s next?’

How much more joy can we all create in our beautiful world by playing with the infinite possibilities that await if we choose?  If you could have anything in your life, what would you choose?  Choice creates everything.  NOW is the time! You are an infinite BEing, with unlimited possibilities… what bliss will you invite into your playground of possibilities?

Conversations like these allow you to remember who you truly BE and to have awareness of everything you know deep in your being… they allow you to perceive more about what’s possible and they allow you to receive gifts of awareness and gratitude from people that love you more than you can ever imagine…

Do you remember how satisfying that feeling of discovery and connection is to your soul? What if you could choose that every day? Focus on BEing and this energy will arrive in your life with ease.  We are one with everything… there is nothing that is impossible.

(With thanks to the many gorgeous people who shared these luscious conversations with me... you know who you are!!)

At the moment we are looking for one or two more very special speakers to complete our line-up for The Bliss Connection event in Maleny on 30/31 October. It’s a little tricky because we don’t know exactly what we’re looking for here. You know what I’m talking about… it’s the “I’ll know it when I see it!” syndrome!!

I feel a little like Douglas Adams…  “I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don’t know the answer” Ironically, answering like this indicates that Mr Adams was a whole lot more aware of how the universe works than most of us!!

Most of us ask questions looking for an answer.  When we try to create new possibilities by finding answers, we’re actually limiting the many potentials and choices that could be created!!

So, instead of trying to decide on the answer of what we’re looking for (way too hard!!), I’ve been asking the universe to show me what other topics or speakers our phenomenal audience will love…

The next step was to follow my intuition – engaging with everything that feels like the energy of The Bliss Connection event… following what feels interesting and expansive… and guess what – I’ve connected with 4 possible speakers in the last few days, a couple of who are offering topics that are totally amazing in relation to our ‘Different Like Me’ theme!  How does it get better than that?

It’s another example of the universe being totally counter-intuitive – stop looking for the answers, keep asking questions and a heap of possibilities with unlimited potential will show up!!

When you follow the standard wisdom by answering the question, coming to a final decision, coming to a conclusion before you start or doing what other people think is right you are actually limiting all of the possibilities that you could create!!

Some great questions to play with are ‘What else do I need to be know or be aware of here?’  and ‘What else is possible that I am not aware of right now?  Ask these questions around a current challenge and watch the Universe turn itself inside out to deliver!!

At our October Bliss Creators events we’re taking joy in discovering how collaboration and connections can offer us the structures and supports that are required for us to create magic in our universe.

What if you could create and generate the ‘synchronicities’ and ‘coincidences’ that occur for “lucky” people all of the time? What if you were willing to get really clear about what you require from your business and your life so that your spheres of influence can be created for you to have all of this and more with ease??

Do you want to discover spheres of influence you haven’t yet experienced? Do you want to solve challenges with ease simply by asking the right questions or the right people? Would you be willing to transition from survival mode into creative thrival and beyond? What could that look like for you? Come play and we’ll discover what’s possible beyond your imagination!!

You are a treasure… how many of your gifts and talents are hidden from others (and yourself!!) What would it take to share your unique differences with the world in ways that create ease for yourself and others? Bring along a project or idea that could benefit from some collaborative ideas… let’s see what treasures we can create individually and collectively!!
