A wave cannot rise in one place, without creating a hollow elsewhere. The sum total of the energy of the universe remains identical from one end to the other. If you take from one place you must give elsewhere.

What is an Akashic Record Consult?

Offering Akahsic Record Consults has been a real joy that comes with many experiences. I have taken time to look at what comes from the session and know that this can vary with intention and personality style. Don’t confuse an Akashic Record consult with a Psychic reading. My experience has been that it is about going deeper into your awareness, and offering to take you with it. You will receive information, but you will also leave with the opportunity to add further clarity and understanding to your newly unearthed information.

Shared responses from Akashic Record Consults:

The Akashic Records have helped me in all areas of my life in a most powerful way…more than what I ever imagined. They have helped me define and confirm more clearly my Soul’s Purpose.

I knew so little about Akashic Records that I had no preconceived notions of what the process or results would look like. My consult was full of metaphor and symbols but I am a Storyteller, and metaphor and symbols are my tools. What I was given as direction was the booster shot propelling me onward. Tapping into great mystery, Akashic Records proved to me to be a quite profound experience, and one I would sum up as the best businss advice I have received in 13 years.

In having been introduced to the Akashic Records it has been a very good source of direction. Since Suzanne opened this new world for me, I have more of an understanding of what, why, when and where.

Movie Review: The Ultimate Gift

For those of you who are reading “A New Earth” by Eckhart Tolle, you will remember the dark truth that is presented to us in chapter 1; for entertainment we watch movies where people are torturing, murdering and maiming others. Obviously that is true, but it hit me deeper to actually hear that concept put into words. In honour of that I have been in search of movies that offer up a more appealing storyline.

My first pick is: The Ultimate Gift

When Jason’s extremely wealthy grandfather dies, Jason expects his inheritance to be a large amount of money that will continue the lavish lifestyle of indulgence and selfishness, his trust fund has allowed through out his life. Instead Jason is challenged to complete 12 elaborate tasks that his grandfather considers “gifts”. These gifts are meant to lead Jason to answering the ultimate question ” What is the relationship between wealth and happiness?” It’s a beautiful story that is carried out by many actors you are familiar with - Abigail Breslin, Lee Meriwether, James Garner, Brian Dennehy and Bill Cobbs. Rent this movie from your favourite video store.

Bhutan’s Unique Measurement of Wealth

In two of the magazines I subscribe to, National Geographic and Ode, I came across articles on the small country of Bhutan which is located between Indian and Tibet. It is ranked near the bottom of the world’s development scale. I read with intrigue how the King and government came up with a distinctive way to measure the country’s wealth in terms of the happiness of its citizens. The unique concept of gross national happiness (GNH) is used to measure the country’s wealth, as an alternative to the world’s economic scale Gross National Product (GNP). GNH is an official policy of the kingdom, having been passed in parliament.

Essentially, the idea of GNH is to encourage a rethinking of what is important in people’s lives: should the success of a nation be judged by its ability to produce and consume, or should it be based on the quality of life in that country, the happiness of its people?

It is the qualitative distinctions that are lost in this measuring of quantity: “economic calculations ignore the value of things such as fresh water, green forests, clean air, traditional ways of life”, merely because they cannot be easily quantified.

In Buddhism, happiness is not determined by what we have and own, but also by our knowledge, our living skills and our imagination: by being, not having. Compassion and co-operation are as important to achieving happiness as competition, and developing our minds could be the key to all of these changes.

The policy seems to be reaping the desired results - 72 percent of the country is still forested, health care is free, and a study conducted by the University of Leicester in Britain ranks Bhutan as the planet’s eighth happiest place, ahead of the US and Canada.

It is surely an interesting concept, one that could be worthwhile implementing on a smaller scale in small businesses and corporations.
