#Mondaymotivation: Stop being motivated!

#mondaymotivation : Do you need a ‘dare-to-do-it-Doula’?

Have you ever wondered why it’s difficult to sustain motivation for long?

When I trained with the Institute of Education UCL all training was founded on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs (it’s a shame consecutive UK governments haven’t understood this basic concept) and we focussed the notion of ‘student centred learning’ as encouraging the ‘intrinsic motivations’ of students. We are well into the 21st Century now and it’s time to move into a more progressive pedagogy.

So, why is it difficult for young people & adults alike to sustain motivation for long?

Because ‘motivation’ is nothing more than “the avoidance of unwanted circumstances”

…and once you understand that, you will understand that the story you have perpetuated in your mind ( the narrative told to you by others) i.e. that life is hard and if you want to achieve success it has to be a struggle, is simply not true. You may or may not be, or have been, successful at ‘earning’ money, material wealth, consuming and hoarding more and more things. Yet you do not feel successful, you feel exhausted, depleted of energy, depressed and even in pain.

Let’s unwrap that

What we used to call extrinsic motivation i.e. ‘motivators’ defined by someone outside ourselves, e.g. the government telling you to follow their educational curriculum is a control mechanism, with a very heavy stick ( if your parents don’t get you to school they face fines and imprisonment). This example of extrinsic motivation (motivators outside of yourself) is most definitely “the avoidance of an unwanted circumstances”.

But what we call intrinsic motivators are also very heavily sited in the dense world of ‘carrot and stick’, ‘reward and punishment’. In the adult world motivators such as ‘fear of poverty’ is a great thought to keep us going… striving for more and more money. But whether we are successful in achieving that, or not, we do not feel successful because the ‘motivator’ was not an inspirational goal (unless we really were ‘following our bliss’) but “an avoidance of unwanted circumstances”


In 2025 I’m moving on from content based around the hashtag #MondayMotivation because we are moving into a transformational paradigm encouraging us to manifest in calm stillness, stand in our bliss, be inspired to develop ourselves by shifting our focus  everyday away from the “avoidance of unwanted circumstances” into inspired realisation.

I will keep you accountable on your journey away from  your struggle to master the art of manifestation into a state of being where, through a path of self  developement, a journey of self discovery if you will, you will feel fulfilled by being enabled to truly live, live as the creator of your own life.

Do you need a dare-to-do-it-doula?


Remember: life is an experiential journey. It is meant to be enjoyed.
Remember: you are a divine spirit experiencing your human life.
Remember: you are the creator of your life!


By the way: 

for everyone in the UK who voted ‘Brexit’ on the notion of ‘reclaiming your sovereignty’. Closing your borders is not the definition of sovereignty.
The real definition of sovereignty lies in truly understanding that you are the creator of your own life!

#ThursdayThoughts: Can you reverse and recover from fibromyalgia in 30 days?

The honest answer is it’s going to take longer than that It took me 6-9 months, with support.  But I know that if I could have taken a supported 1:1 month residential, with someone who was living proof that it could be done, I could have recovered in a lot less time. One of the reasons I was disabled by the condition for so long was because I confused symptom management with healing. Another was that I relied on pharmaceutical medication, which didn’t help, and oftentimes made my physiology worse (with complex side effects) Another was that, despite having experience as a spiritual & kinesiology healer, I didn’t recognise that there is a specific energy pattern to fibromyalgia that sustains the pain & fatigue caused by grief & trauma trapped in our etheric energy field. Another was that I didn’t understand the crucial role alkalising diet takes in reversing inflammation within the body. I still managed to achieve sustainable recovery and that’s why I’m launching a new...

A brief history of the science of ‘Healing through the Human Energy Field’ (PT 1)

A brief history of  healing through the Human Energy Field You understand that when someone is angry in your presence you are ‘seeing red’? So are they. If you de-focus your eyes you may also see red sparks firing off them toward you. If you look closely at their outline (where their physical body/skin meets the air, you may be able to perceive a tgrey fluid like slow, or stuck, energy underneath the red haze. This shows you an area of their energy field where deep emotional sadness, loss or trauma became stuck in their energy field, possibly even causing physical, as well as mental, psychological, harm.  Trained Spiritual’ healers use this higher sense perception, and connection to source’ to channel universal energy and. heal your energy fields (the energy matrix that activates life source around and within your body). And this release, in turn allows your body to re-map, re-vert, recover & restore health within your body.  In the 1990s, I trained with the National ...

  Today’s Thursday thoughts are 100% inspired and influenced by this wonderful discussion between Alex Ferrari and top U S psychic Marie Manuchehri (literally full of wonder). Her ‘warnings’ for 2025 include: “If humanity doesn’t pay attention ….  …   People will be surprised that some of our freedoms will be taken away”   Because? Everyone has free will. That sounds like a contradiction or a oxymoron…but it’s not. Speaking about being a psychic Marie said:  “ a Psychic has to stay neutral” why?  Because their position, emotions, invested interest can create energy that will ‘pollute’ (for want of a better word) their ability to clearly ‘read’ the potential & latent energy field around them. The millions of people on earth emit /transmit energies from their very existence. Emotional energy creates physical form. Collective Emotional energy (held in collective consciousness) is what a psychic ‘reads’ . Predictions don’t always come true because the late...
