I'm counting my blessings one by one;

I'm grateful for, a roof over my head, clothes on my body, food on my plate, water in my cup. 60% of the world do not have these things.

I'm grateful that I have access to read, learn and hear spiritual truths.

I'm grateful that I can read, learn and hear.

I'm grateful that I can close my eyes at any moment and pray to Mary, Saraswati, Amma for love, guidance and support on this journey of motherhood. I can be still in that silence and as my mind quietens and slowly turns off I'm left with an incredible softness in my heart, the type that dissolves all anger, fear and doubt. I sit humbly in this little temple of mine. Peace washes over me as I breath God's prana through me. Internalised I return to self, my true self. Om shanti om.

Bodhi sang a kirtan in the car this morning;

I am not this body

I am not this mind

I am not these senses

Immortal self am I

So ham so ham

So ham shivo ham

So ham shivo om

So ham shivo om

Sometimes - most of my time - it is children who remind us of the eternal truth and for this, sweet Bodhi I am eternally grateful, thank you.

More good news; it has been announced that Amma is visiting Australia in April! Are you coming?!

Amma is always giving to her children, hours and hours everyday. She teaches spiritual principles, her gifts are the values of compassion, kindness and love. It is my prayer that I become more like Amma, this wordly mother, the giver to all, the eternally compassionate, kind, gentle mother.

Lady, hear my prayer.

I often take photos of lotus. These ones are from the Krishna Farm in Eungella. I hope they have the same effect as a painting...

"The influence of a lotus flower painting is to open us up to beauty and light. A good lotus flower painting can act as a reminder of the miracle of beauty, light and life. This reminder, communicated on an emotional level, is said to aid both spiritual and practical understanding of Tao, the world and our place in it." From the Platinum Lotus

So ham so ham

So ham shivo ham

So ham shivo om

So ham shivo om

Welcome

  • Hello, my name is Katie Hinshelwood. I want to share with you how to create your own joyful life, a super natural lifestyle that optimises your mental, physical, spiritual and emotional health. A rich combination of plant based medicine in the form of Essential Oils, Yoga, Buddhist practices, Culture, recipes, stories and more.

    I teach Essential Oil classes and how you can use these Oils to enhance your life, in a way, to fill in the gaps. These Oils will enable you to become a healer in your own home. You will not need to out source your health!

    I also facilitate a conscious parenting group called Obaitori. It is an all-embracing collective of women who support each other in 'sharing the struggle' belonging together and not living in 'isolated perfection'.

    I’m really happy you are here. Please feel free to wander around & have a look.

    You are very welcome.

Inspiration

  • Be soft in your practice. Think of the method as a fine silvery stream, not a raging waterfall. Follow the stream, have faith in its course. It will go its own way, meandering here, trickling there. It will find the grooves, the cracks, the crevices. Just follow it. Never let it out of your sight. It will take you. ~ Sheng-yen ~

  • Simplify your life, purify your heart. Slay egoism & pride, cultivate cosmic LOVE, practise SELF DISCIPLINE. Serve ALL. LOVE ALL. Hear, reflect, meditate. Enquire & know YOURSELF. Live the Eternal. There is only one language the language of the heart. There is only one law, the law of cause & effect. There is only one religion the religion of LOVE. ~ Swami Sivananda Saraswati ~
