Almost the eve of Shakti's departure for her UK/America trip and she asks if I would facilitate her dance class. An instinctual body reflex drags in a lungful of air as though I've just met with a bucket of ice-cold water. I have no training in facilitating a dance class. Absolutely nothing. And, for many who attend this weekly event, it is a sustenance almost as vital as the air they breath. This would be a Huge Responsibility and so of course, I say YES!

A request to men and women for input - your contribution is valuable and greatly appreciated.

Scheduled for November are two-day men's workshops in Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town called On Being Man. These events are an invitation to men interested in their personal development as men, deepening connection to inner-strength, vitality and masculine presence in life and love. It is an opportunity to fill gaps from early development, providing an introduction to and direction for a masculine potential men are willing to strive for and are proud to be.

My one-year process of bringing awareness and focus to the life I live has begun. There is a small group of us doing this, scattered around the globe, and we were asked to do something to mark the beginning of our journey together. I felt moved to take a walk alone in what is effectively my back yard. This is its story...

I've been invited to join a twelve month process, orbiting a retreat at the end on this year, designed to bring into clarity my living a daily life that is true to my core being. This is exciting and well timed as I pause over winter, during a time of personal transition, and listen. Being one year in duration, it promises fantastic opportunity to focus my intention and awareness, and develop relationships of trust with all involved.
