by Simone Ellis, Fashion Designer, Pearce’s Creek, NSW

I have known Serge Benhayon for over five years and in that time he has only ever shown me the greatest level of respect and love, often more than I would give myself. Continue reading “Serge Benhayon – A Reflection Of A Way Of Living”

Soaring On A Trampoline

by Lee Green, Perth, Australia

Have you ever watched a person on a trampoline, reaching as they bounce into the sky? Observing the freedom and joy that they get from just being in the air for a period of time, knowing they will be steady, and that the next bounce will be the same, consistently powering them back up?

Then there are others who are more apprehensive and bounce a little lower, as if they want to stay near the ground, afraid to jump up and fly too high. The bounces are dependent on all manner of factors: height, weight, strength, balance, fear or no fear. It could be said that to soar effortlessly, a lot of choices have to come into harmony.

I Found My True Voice Again…

by Dr Rachel Hall, Brisbane Australia

“Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim.
Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.” Harvey Fierstein

My whole life I recall being told: be quiet, stop talking, don’t shout out the answers, you can’t say that, keep your trap shut, shush, be silent, pipe down, don’t speak out of turn and hold your tongue, along with a multitude of other colloquialisms to stop me from verbally expressing myself.

As I Get Older I Get ‘Weller’, Not Sicker

As we get older, there seems to be a common way of thinking – that we will deteriorate.

I remember the stage in our lives when my husband found himself standing at the village community centre bar discussing his ailments with a neighbour and comparing what tablets they were on. They were like the two old men in the Muppets.

Why do our bodies get sicker as we get older? Why do we assume it’s normal? Continue reading “As I Get Older I Get ‘Weller’, Not Sicker”

Rediscovering Our Body’s Lovely Flow

by Kate Greenaway BAppSc (Physiotherapy), Australia

Recently I had a fascinating experience that highlighted to me the difference between moving and exercising in a gentle flowing way, or pounding and pushing the body. I was packing my car after a lovely time exercising in the local pool – two middle-aged men were running down a steep cement driveway near me – they were literally pounding and jarring their bodies. They were red and puffy in their faces and they looked miserable. I was feeling really fluid and content in my body from the gentle moving and swimming that I had just done, and then to feel what these men were doing to their bodies almost made me wince as they slammed their bodies with each step. From my work in physiotherapy over the last 28 years I know this sort of activity to be extremely damaging to the joints of the legs and spine, and to the deep soft tissue that supports them.

Now I Take Responsibility for ME

by Glenda, Canada

My name is Glenda. I was introduced to Universal Medicine several years ago by a dear friend. My life has changed dramatically since Universal Medicine.

I remember as a child feeling pretty, expressive and full of life. Somewhere at a young age I gave up on being that little girl and started to feel the hurts of not measuring up.

So I went inward and became quiet and shy: this made it difficult to truly connect with others. Continue reading “Now I Take Responsibility for ME”
