I can walk through the world always at the mercy of people around me, or I can walk through the world free.

Posted on July 30, 2026July 30, 2026 by Pierre

Sometimes we find ourselves navigating life as if we're adrift in a stormy sea, our emotional state tossed about by the whims of those around us. Every word, every action, becomes a potential storm, leaving us feeling powerless and overwhelmed. But what if there was another way? A way to navigate life with a sense … Continue reading I can walk through the world always at the mercy of people around me, or I can walk through the world free.

You will stand in front of anyone as an equal, and never have the need to wear a mask again.

Posted on July 29, 2026July 29, 2026 by Pierre

We have all had experience in our past of being shown by people around us that “how we are” is not acceptable to them, and that we need to somehow change in order to be accepted. These experiences become the foundation for the masks we wear, hiding how we really feel for the sake of … Continue reading You will stand in front of anyone as an equal, and never have the need to wear a mask again.

When we see reality as it is, action becomes simple.

Posted on July 28, 2026July 28, 2026 by Pierre

The power of NOW... "Being present" has such a spiritual connotation that its pure practical application is often missed. It's a shame because "being present" is simply the most effective way to apply your effort. Dealing with what this moment makes available to you right NOW, is the only place where you have any power … Continue reading When we see reality as it is, action becomes simple.

You’re trying to stop the wind, dressed as a kite. How are you going to do it?

Posted on July 26, 2026July 26, 2026 by Pierre

During Sunday meditation we create a space of stillness. Less talking from me and more presence in the absence of words. Silence, however, is not merely the absence of sound, it’s the profound presence of existence. Embracing silence is not about fighting the presence of noise, but having acceptance for the transient movements of consciousness … Continue reading You’re trying to stop the wind, dressed as a kite.

Who is the captain of your ship?

Posted on July 25, 2026July 26, 2026 by Pierre

What is the relationship between your mind and your soul? Today’s meditation explores this dynamic… "Feelings, by themselves, do not create problems.

When out of habit you believe those interpretations, it is there that the suffering begins." - Mooji "Your Daily … Continue reading Who is the captain of your ship?

The ice cannot resist the melting.

Posted on July 23, 2026July 23, 2026 by Pierre

Mooji’s words might just be the most beautiful description of doing "inner work" that I've ever come across. It's natural for any of us to look at our own "worst" qualities and want that to change, but when we judge or punish ourselves for it, we become involved in an inner war. And while this … Continue reading The ice cannot resist the melting.

Peel back the layers of everything that you are not, until you come to the deep realization of what you are…

Posted on July 19, 2026July 20, 2026 by Pierre

This first quote from Swami Vivekananda can possibly be a little controversial - "The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves." - Swami Vivekananda From experience I know that this can be a touchy subject... religion... and then the suggestion that your own true nature should be your … Continue reading Peel back the layers of everything that you are not, until you come to the deep realization of what you are…

Being the Observer.

Imagine yourself sitting at a cafe in the corner of a bustling marketplace. As you sip on your tea or coffee, you’re taking in the sounds of vendors hawking their wares, vibrant colors assaulting your eyes, and the intoxicating scent of exotic spices fill the air.

Talking to ourselves harshly comes quite naturally, yet it seems ‘weird’ to deliberately talk to ourselves in a positive way.

Posted on July 15, 2026July 15, 2026 by Pierre

Have you ever wondered how we can create a world in which people judge and criticise each other less? How do we move closer to a world in which we all allow one another to be human? That’s a tall order right? But could we at least see a starting point? How would we start … Continue reading Talking to ourselves harshly comes quite naturally, yet it seems ‘weird’ to deliberately talk to ourselves in a positive way.

Every path is a journey to God.

Posted on July 12, 2026July 12, 2026 by Pierre

Hello heart whisperers. For today's silent meditation I couldn't find any content from Jeff Brown that particularly speaks to silence or meditation, so I thought I'd share some of his work that most resonated with me this week. And what particularly struck me, was some of his content on love and relationships. I often get … Continue reading Every path is a journey to God.

There was a time when your “coping mechanism” might have literally kept you alive, and that needs to be honoured, not judged.

Posted on July 11, 2026July 11, 2026 by Pierre

Sometimes in the pursuit of growth, we may find ourselves in a world obsessed with self-improvement, where every behavior that doesn't serve our highest potential gets labeled as "self-sabotage." This narrative is not only harmful - it's fundamentally wrong. The truth is, there's nothing within you that desires to sabotage your success or happiness. What … Continue reading There was a time when your “coping mechanism” might have literally kept you alive, and that needs to be honoured, not judged.

The only difference between you and God is that you have forgotten that you are divine.

Posted on July 9, 2026July 10, 2026 by Pierre

I believe that wisdom is to be found in our ability to balance the paradoxes of life. The truth is that paradoxes are everywhere, and we tend to be ill equipped to deal with this complexity of life, when we’ve been brought up with the kind of black and white thinking that wants to place everything … Continue reading The only difference between you and God is that you have forgotten that you are divine.

We just have to learn how to be turned on by humanness.

Posted on July 8, 2026July 8, 2026 by Pierre

REALNESS - being real, this really lights me up! I don't think that I was always like this, but something changed for me at some point in my own journey when I came to a deeper understanding of what it means to be human. It's messy! We were conceived in a messy puddle of human … Continue reading We just have to learn how to be turned on by humanness.

When we are un-centred, we become easy targets.

Posted on July 7, 2026July 7, 2026 by Pierre

What an amazing time to be alive! In the annals of human history, often thousands of years have passed by without much changing in the human story.

A surrender to dealing with reality just as it is.

Posted on July 5, 2026July 5, 2026 by Pierre

Two little words that might be able to tell us something about dealing with the onslaught of daily noisiness and overwhelm. Two little words formed from the very same alphabet soup of letters.... silent and listen... a beautiful coincidence or a silent message waiting to be heard?

Find the LIFE inside of you right now! Life is not something that’s waiting to happen.

Posted on July 4, 2026July 4, 2026 by Pierre

Life. It's a word we throw around so casually, yet it often feels like we don’t quite know what to even do with it. It seems like “life” often becomes something we chase after. Some future destination that we believe will somehow be "better" than right now, instead of the vibrant tapestry we are weaving … Continue reading Find the LIFE inside of you right now! Life is not something that’s waiting to happen.

This brings an end to the inner war. This creates true inner freedom.

Posted on July 2, 2026July 2, 2026 by Pierre

What does the road look like towards finding peace from internal conflict? Do we need “difficult” emotions to disappear, so that we can be free from those experiences?

Jeff Foster suggests no more wrestling with negative thoughts or desperately trying to … Continue reading This brings an end to the inner war. This creates true inner freedom.

Help me see where to surrender, and show me where to take action.

Posted on July 1, 2026July 1, 2026 by Pierre

We live in a world that glorifies action. A "go-go-go" world where we're constantly bombarded with messages about productivity, hustle, and achieving more. To-do lists overflow, schedules are crammed, and the pressure to constantly achieve can be overwhelming. Now, of course productivity has its place, but the over-glorification of action can create an unhealthy imbalance … Continue reading Help me see where to surrender, and show me where to take action.
