Over a period, I have read articles, watched a number of telecasts and also read contradictory reviews about food. It baffles me to think what's right and what's wrong.

For eons candles have been used for various religious ceremonies and have also been used by people with various cultural backgrounds. Often candles are used to celebrate birthdays, romance, during meditation or just a form to relax and also during memoriam of those who have passed on.

WHAT IS MEDITATION?

Time to time if it wasn't by reading, often I came across the word manifestation through friends or from random people. At first, I couldn't fathom how manifesting can bring my desires into fruition until I decided to venture into this magical journey.

The word Archangel is derived from a Greek word whereby the word Archi means highest, chief, most important and Angel means a messenger of God. When put together it means the highest messenger of God.

In the last article I parted with knowledge of my interpretation of what is a chakra, how to distinguish each chakra, went in depth with the Root Chakra and manage blockages.  Let us familiarize ourselves with 2 more chakras this month, the Sacral Chakra and the Solar Plexus Chakra.

Have you ever wondered why you might often be feeling low, feeling a lack of energy, unwell or frozen with pain? Is it possible that there could be a block in one or several of your chakras?

Did you know that we have 60,000 thoughts in a day? And did you know that out of those 60,000 thoughts, 12,000 are focused on what could go wrong? And these thoughts are repeated every day. No wonder the life you wish to have is always a stone throw away, but never a part of you. Pam Grout, the author of E Squared, Nine Do-It-Yourself energy experiments that prove your thoughts create your reality. This month it’s all about “Abracadabra”, create magic with your thoughts.

“What comes to mind when you look at yourself in the mirror?” The self-talk, the critique comes out firing all guns blazing. We start considering the mirror our enemy and spend the first 10 minutes each morning scrutinizing all the flaws we think we have, all the nips and tucks we could have if it were affordable. But why do we succumb to the pressures of what the society perceives to be “perfect”? Imagine a world where we all looked the same, almost identical, boring, right? But NO! each one of us are here with our own unique identity, character, including our appearance.

Many end up feeling stuck in their journey of life, out of all tried and tested techniques out there, some connected with Ho’oponopono. In 2011, I was reading a lot of self-help books, yet I felt like there was a missing piece to the puzzle. “Do you know about Ho’oponopono?” asks a friend, one day over coffee, my answer to her question was with another question, “Is there a new series on channel 5?” Little did I know what I was about to discover, that day was going to change my life.

In the book Wishes Fulfilled by Dr Wayne Dyre, he mentions about “I AM THAT I AM.”

Last year, I came across a post on Instagram about a gratitude jar. The curious cat in me wanted to know more about this as I am all up for trying out all the mindful techniques and exercises out there.
