“Be on your guard so that no one deceives you by saying, 'Look over here!' or 'Look over there!' For the child of true Humanity exists within you. Follow it! Those who search for it will find it.” Gospel of Mary
A mystical interpretation of the Easter story & an invitation to inquire into the nature of our own cross in life.
Read MoreHow to inquire into and soften difficult polarities that have a strong hold upon us? How to discover the truth that is deeper than any polarity? A loving invitation to inquire into your strongest opinions.
Read MoreActing in alignment with our Heart means taking a leap. And it is not a leap “towards fulfilment” sometime in the future. It is a leap “from fulfilment” already here and now. Join me for a new month of MindRests as we embrace the creative life force of the Spring.

Read MoreMindRest in January planted seeds of new beginnings as we set intentions for this year. Of course, quite naturally, now the impulse is to start working towards our goals. But I invite you to try something different instead - to follow Nature’s rhythm and simply make space for new growth to begin in the Spring. Discover the element of Space in the February offering.
Read MoreThis is a long overdue newsletter to introduce a new name and a new chapter to this unfolding. After two beautiful years as The Seed., in which I learnt so much about the ups and downs of a solo project, time has come to say goodbye to it with gratitude and love. Let me introduce MindRest - and with that, an expanded yet simplified offering, as I add therapy to the ways in which we meet.

“We are all meant to be mothers of God”. This post is about the beauty and mysticism of Christmas and the possibility of embodying the Mother of God within each and every one of us, regardless of our story, our gender or our beliefs.

As modern day Christmas madness exemplifies it well, we tend to avoid this darkness at all cost. But in this avoidance, we often miss its healing beauty and mystery. The next mont of MindRest is all about embracing the darkness rather than avoiding it.
Read MoreLast Sunday, at MindRest, we looked closely at what keeps us away from fulfilment - not just fulfilment of our particular intention, but fulfilment in life altogether. For most of us, it is clear that it isn’t just circumstances - it is mostly our conditioned beliefs. At this point of the journey, different programs (including mine in the past) , tend to offer different techniques of letting go of what doesn’t serve us. If you have tried this for long enough, you will know that however much you shake it, burn it on sheets of paper and remove it out of your consciousness, it doesn’t work. Here is why.

Read MoreLast Sunday, at MindRest, we set our intention for the remaining weeks of this year - an intention of the Heart, not the mind. In this post, I share what I’ve learnt about how to set a powerful intention and how to let the Heart lead. For someone quite academically minded, it has been a life-changing discovery for me. For those of you who feel skeptical and resistant towards such practices, I want to clarify from the onset that there is little spiritual about this, despite appearances.
Read MoreAs we are slowly settling into another lockdown, it is an opportunity to turn inwards, slow down and reframe it as a retreat. It doesn’t have to be beautiful, grandiose and life-changing. It can also be subtle, loving and quiet. I sit in this one and invite you in.

Read MoreAs the wheel of the seasons rolls towards the winter, the darkness outside is calling us to meet to the ‘darkness within’. Yet this meeting is avoided at any cost and some strategies are more subtle than others.
