  • Taking My Life Back from an Eating Disorder

    Taking My Life Back from an Eating Disorder
    Mar 7 2017
    They key is you must be the one to take back your life from these limiting behaviours. Until you say yes, it controls you, and gives you all the excuses to keep on doing what you are doing. And yes, it can kill you. It certainly diminishes the quality of your life's experiences. For me feeding the self, is about “feeling” the self and knowing what to do about those feelings in the moment. You are not a victim. You can change your story any time, make yourself the hero of the story you tell. Where do we find joy? Happiness? Peace, or Bliss? When we release the emotions rather than trying to force them – then these states become our “normal” resting state. That's right, when we are not engaged in our thoughts, our resting state drops us back to joy, happiness, peace, bliss. You can live from this place and take back your life from this eating disorder.

  • With loving hearts we remember

    With loving hearts we remember
    Feb 14 2017
    Dedicating to the families that have lost loved ones to an eating disorder from around the world, our hearts are with you. Eating Disorders continue to hold the highest mortality rates of any of the psychological disorders - in fact 20% higher than all others. Today family members are here sharing their grief, their loss and how they are coping. Both these women were professionals; one a triple board certified psychiatrist, the other a bachelor of nursing. Both worked in clinics, and hospitals and both lost their lives to this. Marie-Claude's family had no idea their daughter was about to die, until they got the call she'd been found dead in her home and learned she'd had bulimia since the age of 14. Mary-Jane's family share the journey of over 30 years of treatment in centres, respite centres, home care, surgeries, all at a huge personal & financial cost. This is a powerful, thought provoking, emotional and heartfelt sharing of the high cost of eating disorders.

  • The Gene Keys, A Discussion on Addiction: with Peter Tongue

    The Gene Keys, A Discussion on Addiction: with Peter Tongue
    Jan 31 2017
    Peter Tongue is adept in the work of deeper spirituality and the evolution of the soul's work. A deeply compassionate and caring individual, his interviewing skills brought to light many who have embraced their path of examining the deeper aspects of the soul's journey. His recent work with the Gene Keys examines f our Soul's work, embracing those shadow places where uncomfortable questions remain hidden, secret; often avoided. Peter is dedicated to his current work with the Gene Keys as a trainer, leader and through private readings, coaching and counselling. There is an aspect of the Gene Keys that directly connects with both addictive and co-dependent patters of behaviour so I asked Peter to come and share with us just how the Gene Keys can both assist and illuminate patterns, when we find ourselves drawn into addictive patterns. Peter's investigative approach together with his deep compassion help illuminate the subject so real change can begin.

Through her loss of love and child, she reveals her humanity. Through her consistent caring for others she shares her compassion. Through her grit she shows her resilience.
