Live Your Love and Inner Heart. Taking Your Journey Deeper into Your Sacred World.
I first met Anna at a health retreat in Thailand. Having read her bio before arriving I was curious to meet her and try one of her consults.
There were certain aspects of my life I wasn’t really happy with and I ready to try something new. I had also recently lost my father and was still feeling the sadness of this. My time with Anna was like nothing I’d experienced before. This was the first time we had met and yet like I already knew Anna. By the time the consult had ended I felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I felt empowered and ready to step out and reconsider my life, to determine the things that were not working for me anymore and to make some changes.
This meeting was the beginning which led to the next several years when Anna and I worked together as teacher and student on a regular basis. It was a very special time of sharing and among many things Anna’s guidance and support helped me rekindle my relationship with myself. This aspect of our time together is a gift that I will always cherish.
I recall her asking on one occasion, “What do you enjoy?” And to my surprise I didn’t know. I came to realise that I had been focussed on my family and work for so long that I could no longer identify what bought me pleasure, I had lost touch with my own dreams and desires.
I also learnt that I had a tendency to spend much of my time in my head, trying to solve problems by thinking them through, forgetting how to feel, how to use all of my senses including my intuition. It was the work Anna and I did together that brought me back in touch with my inner world. This now plays a much bigger part in my decision making and the direction which I now steer my life.
Anna’s teachings are insightful and interlaced with humor making the conversations we shared both full of knowledge and light-hearted. I feel privileged and honoured that she shared her boundless knowledge and wisdom with me, sharing perspectives that broadened my mind and freed my thoughts from old beliefs, opening up a world of possibilities, while dispelling many self-imposed limitations. This now forms the basis for how I have reframed my family and business lives, how I came to realise that I have many choices beyond what I had once thought and that as I make these choices deliberately and with focus that I can create my own reality. A reality that above all resonates in me.
I continue to be challenged at times. But now my perspective on the challenges in my life has changed too. I understand the role that challenges play in bringing about personal growth. Through my own knowing and awareness I now find that when I am challenged these moments pass quickly and don’t tend to disrupt the flow of my life. My days are richer than I had imagined and I see beauty more than I ever did. I have taken up creative writing which I find a great way to explore and advance my understanding. I also spend more time in nature, having become aware of the value of stopping to appreciate how much there is to learn from the natural world around us.
