The Summer of Smoke – David and Goliath

Posted on December 19, 2019     Leave a Comment

It’s been a terrible summer in Australia so far.  This burnt tree is set up in Sydney as a poignant symbol of the ongoing devastation to our natural environment, not to mention the horrific toll it’s taken on Australian wildlife. The mega fire front is still raging.  With funding cuts, climate change denialism and a […]

The Summer of Smoke

Posted on December 2, 2019     Leave a Comment

I’ve become increasingly fixated on water.  For someone who used to whinge when it rained because I would get my running shoes wet, I have a new respect for something  I’ve always taken for granted. Rain will come, the tap will produce water, day follows night. Right? That is until I lived in a city […]

Few things press my buttons faster or harder than experiencing white male privilege in action. After 64 years on this planet I am done. To give an example of what I mean let me take to you to the side of pool with me yesterday where I was teaching a deep water running class.  It […]

Mango madness. My mango tree has been productive this year. The birds are full. The bats are full. My freezer is full and the tree is still full. #abundance #manicorganic
I’ve been so emotionally drained and devastated by the fire carnage in Australia, so hit wrenched at what had happened to the wildlife, so fearful that there will be zero change to the status quo that to be honest the only way I can function is to retreat. Accordingly I have shut down Facebook and Twitter and deleted most news feeds. I’ll stay on insta but I’m not up to much. Goodnight.
I’ve always been someone who learnt by writing, drawing or colouring in. At school I learnt the map of the world by colouring in and spending hours on the oceans. My school books were works of art. I’m massively excited about this book. Now I can learn the body the same way.
Four years ago I’d you said to me I would be teaching yoga I would have told you you had rocks in your head. And yet, here I am teaching my very first class of yin yoga at the Palm Beach Aquatic Centre. Do something that challenges you and then do the next thing. #yinyoga #myhealthyoga# palmbeachaquaticcentre #gold coast
If there is one thing that 2019 truly highlighted it’s the suffering of animals as a result of human impact and human cruelty. Our beloved koalas are facing extinction as a result of these and have become the unfortunate poster child for for all that’s wrong and also right with the world. We can no longer remain indifferent to the suffering of other creatures. We have to choose whose side we are on. I acknowledge our modern world gives us comforts, but this comes at a terrible cost. We have to choose different and be better. Today I commit to becoming vegan and doing what I can to reduce waste, cruelty and ignorance, my own included. From an Australia that looks like Armageddon I wish peace and sanity for the world in 2020. It takes a village people. Let’s do this. #koala #vegan #bushfires #animals
