We had fun in my Writers Group this week – we each did our own Annual Review! Yes, I know ‘fun’ and ‘annual review’ aren’t usually words that go in the same sentence. But hey, Chris Guillebeau from The Art of Non-Conformity is at the heart of this one, so they do!

Not only was it fun, but the process was surprising and really useful too. Chris does a review every year at this time – he doesn’t wait until the New Year to look forward and make plans for what’s ahead. Last night in my monthly New Moon Energy call with Donna Heath, I learnt some more reasons why this part of December is a great time to plot the year ahead.

Sonia Choquette works her magic in this wonderful workshop on Spirit. Sonia has her audience singing, breathing and raising their vibrational levels. She explains the 6th sense, living as a creator, listening to your spirit, emptying the brain and the differences between the 4 chambers of the heart.

Ideally, watch this with someone else so that you can join in the exercises – become a Diver and a Container to be able to hear your True Purpose…
Sonia asks; What is your best creation in your life so far? please share your comments…

We could all benefit from some time spent focusing within or connecting with source or simply not doing what we normally do in our busy daily lives. There are many, many forms and variations of meditation, from simply sitting alone focusing only on your breathing to group meditations aimed at promoting world peace, from lo-tech walking-in-nature meditations to hi-tech audio meditations that claim to alter your very brainwaves.

Which type would suit you best? That’s your journey of discovery… but here are a few different starting points you might find useful…
