Making the Most of Your Time

10/9/2014

As a Husband and Parent, it may seem on one hand that I do not have as much time as I used to, to get to do everything that I need to do or want to do out of leisure or enjoyment. I was pondering upon this recently, and it could be seen another way. Whilst love drives what do and what you are passionate about, it probably has been said many times before to love what you do and do what you love.

On another hand, you could look at it another way. With the ever-growing list of responsibilities and things that need doing as life changes and evolves, simply and surely enough, you'll need to allocate your time more efficiently. In saying that however, it could also be noted that in order to do this, you would need to make the most of your time.

To do this, and to make the most of your time, one would need to be fully in the present, aware of where their feelings are at and what can be appreciated about what life is offering in this very moment. To look at life in this perspective, allows for a deeper focus and drive. One could say that the resulting moment of being able to enjoy their different allocated time, allows them to feel like they are able to focus more, to get more out of what they are doing and to almost seemingly achieve a lot more than if all the time in the world was given to them.

Reflecting upon this, it is like shining light on the moments to be truly grateful for and not being too concerned with the quantity of what is going on in this moment, but focusing rather on the quality of what is going on.

Life is here to be enjoyed and it is a miracle to be lived and learned. Spread your wings and fly. Be free to be who you are and what you are in every moment, knowing that every experience is tailored to be a unique experience for you.

Flowers and Everyday Magick

9/28/2014

Today we were asked to feature as a guest presenter for the online launch of the Australian Wildflower Reading Cards. We filmed four videos which were featured during our discussion during the event.

Flowers are a natural connection to the Divine, as all of life is a physical expression of Spirit manifest. Flowers are great and powerful healers that work wonders in our lives. Through the next four videos, we discussed the blessings brought about by flowers in everyday life, followed by examples of healing methods using flowers and concluded by lesson examples of teaching children about flowers.

Enjoy.

Love from Nathan and Friends.

Reflections on A Visit to Pearl Harbour (June 2011)

8/8/2014

The power of prayer and global healing has demonstrated itself many times in my life. When I visited Hawaii in 2011, I went to the Pearl Harbour Memorial, where I noticed Mother Mary doing some healing work there. I saw shades of Aquamarine light entering the water and the remains of the ship memorial that people visit as she passed over many beings over to the light. The Pearl Harbour memorial is like a big gateway for crossings.

Whilst she was doing her work, Mother Mary spoke to me and she said;

"Children at war (acknowledging us as children regardless of age) are like children who are quarreling and fighting with sharp objects. They may think that they have more authority over one another and all is well perhaps until someone gets hurt on either side. Whether as a wielder or a receiver on either end, for you as observers, it's not about getting angry at them, for this only fuels what is going on and what has been left behind. Recognise your greater significance, worth and power in situations such as these that are left behind and send your prayers and blessings to these people, places, times and everything uniting them over distance, space and time. Step aside from the boundaries for your souls do not belong to a particular country or race of people, because you are all Universal and all a part of the same light. Find this and recognise this within yourselves first and the rest will follow through your lived and lead example. Be patient with yourselves and allow yourselves to be loved, loving and lovable."

Together we can make a difference in cleansing the energy of the planet, healing away past hurts and paving the way for a better tomorrow. Thank you everyone.

Living a Heart Centred Life

8/1/2014

Today, I'd like to ponder on the concept of turning passion into survival. This means to take that once held passion from the beginnings of the heart and bringing it down to the main focus in the level of the Base Chakra. If you think about things this way, it is easy enough to understand - you have something that you are absolutely passionate about and really love as part of your life. Next money becomes involved, with to which, exchange, finances and your overall safety, security and well-being are concerned. Perhaps as your main source of income, where do you think the attention is going to be when say times are tough, sales are down, enrollments are down and there are less clients walking in through the doore?

Today as I write this, I am graced and blessed that I am able to live and lead a balanced life where I can do what I love, have the means of a secondary income through it and be able to share the love through other paths that are offered to me in life. One of the most inspiring people who have demonstrated this to me was my Sifu. Sifu was never one to be quick to talk about money and accepted me as a student gracefully, for it was through my involvement with my Sifu that Wing Chun was taught in a humble, authentic way that ensured the best of environments for teaching and learning. Reflecting on the example set by Sifu, the energy and the passion was focused in the Heart Chakra. As Sifu maintained a primary source of income through a different job, teaching Wing Chun was for the pure love of it and not for means of survial. This kept it free of desperation, competition and over-commercialism, which quite commonly comes when passion is turned into a business and things become emphasised on making money.

When survival is an emphasis, things can shift from their original perception of authenticity. Is it a race to churn out as many students as possible or as many certificates as possible in order to make a buck? Is it a race to teach what one knows for a cheaper amount to get as many students as possible? Is it right to teach techinques without principles in the shortest amount of time? Bigger business does not always mean better business does it? Hmmmmmmm let's see here.

Where do you think the integrity goes? By all means well, there could have been better things to focus attention on to preserve the best intentions for the person, the clients and everything surrounding the situation. I really do respect people who are able to make a living of what they love. Having said that, it comes back to the principle of loving what you do to be able to do what you love.

To be passionate about only one thing and make a living out of it can be challenging and a bumpy road to follow, however, it can be done to a degree that one maintains their utmost integrity and they can remember what got them on the path in the first place. Many people in my life inspire me about this, and they show such dedication and such love in all that they do. The attention has shifted from the money side of things, which understandably is important for exchange, and the universe rewards those who see life with abundance. Abundance referring to everything being supplied in perfect amount, with enough to go around for everybody. There is not a need to compete, to engage in cutthroat business practices or to put others down. There's plenty to share!

Take a Leap of Faith, Let go and go with the Flow

7/26/2014

We are all Spiritual Beings living experiencing a Human existence and quite naturally we are able to tune into our higher guidance, however, our human side sometimes wants to know the how's and why's of everything before it can fully commit to something. It is like the saying that reflects upon the ego wanting to "have everything in place first before it finds peace", whilst the Higher Self says that "finding peace first will allow everything to fall into place."

With my recent move back to Australia in the past year, I have been put to the test to get my life in order so that I can support and raise my family. Having made the noble decision to leave Okinawa earlier last year, leaving my Wife and boys temporarily, I was literally taking a leap of faith, into the unknown. I had to leave to start setting us up for our new life back here in Australia. As I left Okinawa, I wondered to myself, what am I leaving behind and what is waiting for me as I return to Australia? These kinds of questions made my monkey mind race but deep in my heart, as much as I didn't want to be apart from my family, I knew that I had to do these things.

Pretty soon after I left Okinawa, several things happened that started putting me on the road to my success and it is only now, looking back in hindsight, have I been able to gain full appreciation of the choices that I had to make for my future and my family's future.

Upon leaving Okinawa, my former school had down-scaled the technology program that I was working on, with cuts to its funding and resources. Had I stayed, would the nature of my employment be compromised? As my Wife was in the beginning of her pregnancy at the time, I would've been more or less, the sole income earner for us. Looking back, I left at the right time. Upon returning back to Sydney, I was introduced to the current clinic where I am working from now and I was also introduced to the Letting Go Academy of Holistic Learning, where I was welcomed as a new teacher there for classes and information sessions around children's spiritual development.

What a perfect opportunity to be of service!

Next, I had a desire to return to teaching in schools in Sydney. With this in mind and a refreshed perspective on education since returning from Okinawa, I did not feel like classroom teaching was what I wanted anymore. It was through the Letting Go Academy that I was introduced to one of the frequent students, who was a Teacher's Aide at a Special Needs School in Sydney.

"Give it a go, put your name down at this school as a casual. Give it a try and see what you think" was her suggestion.

Well I gave it a go, and I loved it! What a perfect opportunity for me to integrate school teaching with an empathetic, intuitive approach to working with children. Perfect for my intended future research and it was something that I could really see myself getting into. During this time, while I was teaching as a casual, I applied for many school related jobs in positions related to mainstream teaching or technology-related roles. Over 6 months of appliactions, not one of these was successful.

The special needs casual teaching was regular work that I enjoyed and it enabled me to learn many skills as a teacher and to support my family back in Japan. It also got me thinking;
"What if these are not positions that I am meant for? What if I am meant for something else? I just know that something better is out there waiting for me!"

Despite not hearing any feedback from previous job applications, I came across a position for a teacher at a Special Needs school which I applied for and I was requested for an interview almost immediately after applying. Everything about the interview felt great, however I was told that I would be contacted much later in the year.

I felt good about that, but I also knew that I needed something soon if my family were to prepare for moving over to Australia. I heard a voice say "Trust in the power of miracles".

"Ok, sure!", I thought to myself.

Just when I thought that I'd be playing a long waiting game, I received a phone call with a special needs job on offer at a different school run by the same organisation. Now I can get more things ready for my family's move over to Australia :)

I began last week and as I write this, I'd like to reflect upon the concept of perfect timing which is always in our best interests at heart. Perhaps all this time whilst the Universe was arranging this position for me that I needed to learn and grow as a person and as a teacher before anything else could fall into place. Perhaps there is the fact that I needed to simply trust in myself and the power of miracles, whilst doing what I could to keep my spirits high. Keeping my vibration high to manifest, to create, to weave my energy in synch with the flow of the Universe.

Coming back to Australia on my own put me at one of the greatest tests of my life so far. Perhaps it will be something that will always remind me of trusting my higher guidance and following my heart. Focus on the service that you can offer to the world around you and multiply the blessings that you send out and feel returning to you.

Diary Indigo

6/29/2014

Recently, I have started another side blog separate from the blog on this website called "Diary Indigo".

I have been inspired from my own misunderstood childhood and youth to impart wisdom and valuable life lessons and skills to support intuitive and sensitive children and their families. I decided to write this blog as a reflective tool and an educational resource for people wanting to learn more about the nature of our innate spiritual gifts and what goes on in my life as I apply these principles to daily living.

Being empowered, intuitive, and spiritual is not about putting on an act or changing into a different mode, thought pattern or way of expressing yourself as an act, costume or occupation, but rather it is woven into every aspect of life.

I would like to invite you to join me on a journey of exploring life as an intuitive and sensitive person and many of the important life lessons that have been shown to me along the way. Perhaps you’ll find relevance in the things that we write about, as you may be on the road to discovering more about yourself or you too are an intuitive and sensitive person, meaning that you are very in touch with yourself and your inner voice, gut feeling and Divine guidance.

Return to who you are, what you are and where you are. Life is a treasure and there are amazing discoveries to find within yourself at every moment.

Blessings and love,
Nathan and Friends

The Pilgrimage to Sefai Utaki

5/31/2014

Whilst I was in Okinawa, my Mer-Aunt Hiroko and her daughter Lea came to visit. I took them to Sefai Utaki, which is the holiest sacred site on the main island of Okinawa. Sefai Utaki looks out to Kudaka Island, which was where the goddess Amamikiyo first descended to on Earth. Sefai Utaki was created by the goddess Amamikiyo and it was the first place where the early Ryuku people settled.

I make sure that I visit Sefai Utaki place every time I return to Okinawa to build a relationship with the place. The energy feels like it has grown on me since first visiting here in 2011.

Today Hiroko and I walked this place barefoot to really connect with every step made here. As soon as we entered, we felt the holiness of this place. The calls of the trees, the cool breeze and the strong presence of the Spirit here. It actually feels like the Utaki itself was once a place that resided under the ocean.

There is a strong mermaid energy here, the stones have the appearance of coral-like boulders with mermaids and dragons peering through the holes.

We visited the various prayer spots and made our offerings, meditated, and welcomed Spirit's communication with us. We played tuning forks here that sang the harmonics of the Universe.

There is a strong presence of horses at one of the utakis (pictured above and below).

Horses are the offspring of Dragons. This Horse rock was used as an oracle for prophecy and divination.

These 2 naturally formed triangular rocks lead to the holiest altar of Sefai Utaki. The altar looks out to Kudaka Island.

It is such a blessing to be in the presence of such a beautiful and sacred place. I give thanks to the land for inviting us here and may we return again.

Love from Nathan and Friends.

Journey to Awaji Jima

5/26/2014

During my visit to Japan last month, I made a stopover in mainland Japan to visit my Mer-Sister Miyuki. I spent the evening in Himeji and was able to view the Cherry Blossoms from Himeji Castle the next morning. They were very beautiful and we had a great time before meeting up with our Miyuki's brother and our fellow Mer friends and making the journey to Awaji Jima.

It was a pleasant drive to Awaji Jima. A little bit on the background of Awaji Jima; when the Japanese islands were first created, it was the first island created by the Izanumi and Izanagi.

As you could imagine, the energy of Awaji Jima is very sacred, with many shrines to visit and many places to connect with the ancient energy of Japan. Here are some photos from our time here.

We went on a boat ride to see the Naruto (whirlpools). There were many dragons stirring about in the ocean to cleanse and move the energy here.

We visited a beach called "Five Stones Beach" and we cleaned the beach.

Here is the total amount that we cleaned from the beach.

We collected many branches that had washed ashore at this beach to use in magic wand making that night. We were awake for until the early hours of the next morning!

The sun rose and the dragons flew into the sky.

It was a wonderful trip and an exciting, magickal adventure. We blended an essence there which you will find out more about soon! I look forward to our next meeting!
