I thought her comments were a clever analogy and I must admit I know the dread of being in that washing machine.
I know this feeling only too well. Life has a way of tossing and turning you upside down...when you least expect it and you find yourself confronted with big decisions...you never dreamed you would have to make.
Sometimes it is easy to feel trapped in a place of no choice because of financial pressure and listening to your heart just is not the practical option.
Intuition is rarely practical but it is amazing how things turn out for those who dare to create change in the direction of their hearts. Aligning your focus with your highest vision for your life is scary as it means you will need to let go of something in order to attract in something new. The same principle is true of learning...In order to learn something new, you need to let of something you thought to be true and the person that thinks they know it all cannot change, grow or evolve. It is a risk.
For true change to be invited it is important to acknowledge the depth and height of your situation and the opportunities and opportunity costs it initiates. You have established yourself in this situation to learn, grow and move beyond what you don't want. You may not like it at times but it is familiar and familiar is somewhat more comforting than the threat of life being out of your control. This is not a judgement of good or bad...it can be just they way things are from time to time.
There are pluses and minuses to all situations in life...the key to understand how well it is working for you is your attitude to it all. This is not to say that this gorgeous mum had a bad attitude...far from it...This amazing mum always radiates a positive nature...and makes the best of her life daily. The intent to this blog is to stop and recognize the energy it takes, to allow all of our life events to move through us like wind blowing through leaves on a big old tree. Roots firmly planted moving with grace and our spirit being able to move beyond being earthbound and growing wings to fly to creative heights of your intuitive imagination. You may have an inkling that there may be a better way of juggling your life circumstances..often that inkling is right.
If life is passing you by and everyday feels like a bad hair day...not enough time, not enough money, not enough spontaneity...this work life balance clearly needs to be refined.
The truth is we live in an abundant world...we live in the richest country and we have the most resources per person across the globe to dispose of. The most expensive resource which we seem to undervalue is our time.
I crossed another Mum's path this morning who had just cut back her work hours. She radiated lightness of energy. Her comment was that she was not going to get this time back with her children. It was a brave move but one that paid immediate dividends.
The truth is we all need to find our own sense of balance and what works for each of us in our own unique growth pattern..Sometimes in order to achieve such clarity we need to align ourselves with those activities that allow us to relax. Continually functioning on adrenalin taxes our body in many, many ways over time.
We may be able to send our kids to the finest schools, enable them to pursue most interesting extra-curricular activities and take them on exciting holidays but what use is all of that when you are feeling tossed, turned, frazzled and displaced. Our kids resonate with us more than what we know and they in turn then reflect back to us...our unloved parts. The stress that we would prefer to run from and eventually run into.
Negative emotions can be the motivation for positive change if you are open to stop running from them.
The dark and the difficult are as necessary as the light and the easy...each compliment each other in turning challenges into strengths...However even our strengths eventually turn into our challenges over time...such is the duality of life. WE ARE ALL CONTINUALLY EVOLVING and we are exactly where we need to be for the next stage of growth.

Shelley Tucker of Canningvale explains the effect of the Pure Consciousness Meditation and You Course on her life in the following testimonial:
"As a result of completing the course, I can move forward, live in the moment, stop worrying about things that may never happen. I have learnt to relax and create space for my own meditation.
Firstly I had very little knowledge of meditation and heard about it and was curious, after my first session was very impressed with what I got out of it. I saw this as the beginning of an adventure and knew that this was for me.
I found each session very pleasant and welcoming and it really created positive changes for me. It has prepared me to face the future with acceptance.
The science behind why we think the way we do and how we can all change was amazing. I looked forward to every session and went away very positive looking forward to all the challenges that life presents. Changes didn't happen overnight but I'm sure they happened much faster as a result.
I had no idea what a major turning point this was to be in my life and my hope that it's best years lie ahead, I am on a mission.!'
