There Are No Perfect Relationships
There are no perfect relationships! If you think there are, you will be terribly disappointed. Relationships need commitment and work.
Your relationship is not bad because you argue or have disagreements, disagreements are quite normal, the key is how long does it take you to come back to balance after an argument? When you are committed to your partner, you can solve any problem together. I believe that there are no perfect relationship, because there are no perfect people.
Everyone comes to the relationship with something, with their own set of issues. Each person in the relationship is responsible for doing the work needed to heal those issues.
So the relationships most likely to work will be those relationships where both partners are making conscious efforts to work on themselves.
Does A Title Make The Person?
Are you a better person because of the title you hold? Are you happier, do you have the answers to life’s questions or mysteries because of your title? These are some of the questions I tackle in this podcast episode.
In life we give so much of our power away to people who have titles that are perceived to be important. These titles are what society perceives to be valuable. Some titles have more value than others and those who hold these titles are treated differently because of their title.
However, are these people better than anyone else? Are they happier, more compassionate, more loving and caring than the rest of us? I don’t think so!

How To Live An Authentic Life
How can you live your most authentic life? But before we dive in, we must first ask the question: What does authenticity mean? Well for me authenticity means being as honest with yourself as you possibly can about all aspects of your life and your self. Authenticity also means acceptance of yourself. To be truly authentic means you have to have accepted who you are, where you are in life, your status, background, history, where you come from, where you live etc etc…
If you’re hiding and are ashamed of any of these parameters, then you may have to start creating lies about one or more of these factors. You first start lying outside of yourself about the thing you are ashamed of by lying to friends, colleagues and society. You then justify the lies by reasoning or lying to yourself about them. And so the cycle continues.

What Do You Want To Change In Your Life in 2023?
The old year is over and the new year is now underway, so I want to ask the question: What would you like to change in your life in 2023? Did you make New Year’s resolutions that have already gone by the way side?
Well, if that’s the case, I think a good place for you to start if you want to make lasting changes, would be to try to understand what the hindrances are that are stopping you from making the changes you long for. Changing something in your life that isn’t working requires patience, persistence and consistent effort. When you take small, but consistent steps towards your goal, you will surely be successful.
Why We Should Forgive
Forgiveness is the best gift you can give yourself. Learning to forgive is not for the benefit of the other, but rather for your benefit.
Forgiveness releases and free’s you, so practice forgiveness, so you can live your life in lightness and love.
Learning To Trust and Follow Your Intuition
You can think of your intuition as your inner knowing or 6th sense. It’s the little voice that nudges you when you’re doing something wrong, when you’re going in the wrong direction and even when you’re going in the right direction.
Learning to listen and trust this inner knowing, opens up a whole new world of possibilities.
Getting To Know Your Inner Child
When you heal your inner child, life becomes more joyful. Discovering who and what your inner child is, is a process. A process that takes you back to your childhood, to the child you left behind. That child is still within you.
Healing this wounded child gives space for your playful side to flourish, giving you the ability to laugh without limitations or inhibitions.
How To Heal Relationships
The first step in healing your relationships is to heal the relationship with yourself because everything starts with you. Through healing the relationship with yourself, you give space for the other relationships in your life to heal.
Take the time to get to know yourself, love yourself, and see how this positively impacts the way you show up in your relationship with others.
How To Start Living In The Now
Your ability to manifest what you want lies in the now. What does being in the “Now” mean? Well for me, it means bringing mind and body into perfect sync, so when the body is performing an action, the mind also actively participates in that action with full attention, rather than wandering into the past or the future.
Being in the now is where all your opportunities lie, so the more you can live in the now moment, the less conflict you will experience and the more joy you will feel.
Learning To Love Yourself
Do you love yourself? If not why? Loving yourself is fundamental to your being able to love someone else. For me loving yourself is about being present for yourself, giving to yourself, respecting and trusting yourself, looking after your health and wellbeing. Loving yourself means being everything to yourself that you expect a partner to be for you, does that make sense?
Loving yourself opens you up to being able to truly love someone else.
The Benefits I’ve Gained From Silent Meditation
The wealth of benefits I’ve gained from Vipassana meditation, which is silent meditation, are invaluable. I am certainly calmer, more relaxed, able to deal with life’s challenges in a more balanced way than I was before. I am much more tolerant of myself and others.
I’ve discovered that deep silence gives the body an opportunity to release its traumas. Allowing the body to release these traumas, without reacting, will hugely affect the way you react to stress and unwanted external stimuli in your daily life. You too can become more peaceful and calm, which is something we would all like to be, right? Why not give it a try?
Why Silence Is Important
Having periods of time where we give ourselves the gift of silence is both important and beneficial, as it allows us to better know the workings of our inner world and mind. Silence gives us the opportunity to work through our issues, which leads to us better knowing and understanding of ourselves.
Why Maintaining Our Connection With One Another Is Important
Why is it important to maintain our connection with one another? Well because people need people. We don’t thrive when we feel isolated, lonely, or alone. We are our best selves when we feel connected with family, friends, and society as a whole. When we’re in need, we have to have the courage to ask for help and not be afraid of being a burden. Everyone needs somebody at some point in time. Let us open our hearts and ears to listen to each other.
Why and How To Connect With Your Inner World
What is the inner world? How do we connect with it? Why is it important to know the difference between the inner world and the outer? These are just some of the questions that will be answered in this post.
Why and How To Connect With Your Inner World Part 2
We delve a little deeper into this subject in this episode.

These are difficult times we are living in aren’t they? Many of us are experiencing some levels of fear connected with the situation in the world that we may perhaps have difficulty dealing with.

Our Relationship With Fear Part 2
In this episode of The Life Is Relationship Podcast, we continue to explore Our Relationship with Fear. Everything is perfect in the present moment. When we feel fear, bringing ourselves to the present moment without projecting into the future or looking back to the past, has a calming effect on the mind and helps to relieve us of anxiety and fear.
Life Is Relationship Podcast Introduction
This is the first episode of The Life Is Relationship podcast. I decided to give my podcast this title, because of a teaching I received from my spiritual teacher Sri Bhagavan of Oneness University in India, now known as O and O Academy. Sri Bhagavan says that we as humans only come to life due to the relationships in our lives—that without relationships, we would have no life at all.
I totally believe this teaching to be true and have come to value all the relationships I’ve had in the past as well as the relationships I have now, even those that have been difficult or challenging.
Think about it, what would the quality of your life be without relationships? Could you really enjoy your life without relationships? I think life wouldn’t be very exciting, would it? Well, of all the relationships we have in our lives, the fundamental relationships we have with our parents are the most important, but they can also potentially be the most challenging for us.
By healing these relationships, we can heal a lot of the pervading issues we face in our lives. Therefore this first episode of The Life Is Relationship podcast is dedicated to looking at the relationships we have with our parents and looks at how we can start to heal these relationships.
