This is a meditation to help you meet a protective part of you. Our protectors are young parts of us, who have been working thanklessly and tirelessly for years to try to prevent any further hurt to our vulnerable and traumatised parts. Their understanding, resources, beliefs and toolkit are limited and extremely young, but they believe they have to keep doing their job because there's no one else available to keep everyone safe. Including us. This meditation is built around the und...

This is a meditation to help you connect with and soothe an anxious part of you. A traumatised part in need of being heard and understood.This meditation is built around the understanding that we can connect with our traumatised or hurt or frightened parts directly, and help them to heal; that these parts are conscious, with their own histories, beliefs, experiences, frozen in time, carrying historical burdens they long to lay down.

He forgot whether or not he felt happy years ago. But when Danny grows up, something terrible happens. He starts to feel explosively angry, c...

We humans tend to believe we're the wisest, most intelligent, most sophisticated and advanced species on the planet, don't we. We really love to absorb our own publicity, and it makes us feel pretty omnipotent.However, have you ever wondered how we, as a species, appear to other fellow travellers on this planet? Those in the animal realms, for instance? This is how I imagine a letter might go, if an Animal Guide were to write to us as a human race. Have a listen, see what you think....
