i heart connection © erincarver.com The heart is a mysterious organ. To some it’s simply a very efficient pump; to others it is the seat of the soul. But there isn’t a human being on earth who doesn’t know what it means to feel something in your heart, to have a heart that’s bursting with joy or a heart that’s broken. When I want to access my intuition (inner teaching), I drop my awareness … [Read more...] about Why we should listen to the rhythm of our heart

Why Einstein is the gift that keeps on giving
I find it fascinating that, more than 50 years after his death, Einstein is still the name we associate with genius. I’m sure this is partly because no one has disproved his theory of relativity but also because he was a very different kind of scientist to the largely reductionist types we see today.

Perhaps we should let joy be unconfined
You are carrying the accumulated joy of centuries. Setting aside for a moment what your logical mind makes of this, what if it were true?

I just can’t find the time. I don’t know where the time goes. Time seems to be speeding up. I hear these statements all the time, spoken by friends, family, colleagues, clients and often myself.
