This is one area I have a lot of experience in - mostly because I have spent the better part of my life working on energy blocks, resistance, inflammation, deep emotional patterns and what not - all of which are related to some kind of body block.
Read MoreMost people think Beekeeping is a lot of work, this is true for the Commercial Beekeeper but quite a different picture for the Natural beekeeper.
Commercial Beekeeping on a large scale is time consuming for a couple of reasons. Firstly, the scale of the operation requires time to be spent with each hive to monitor and intervene at specific stages of development of each individual hive. Secondly, the techniques followed by Commercial Beekeepers require a high amount of attention due to the intensive nature of the practice. Commercial hives are crowded and cramped damp boxes that are more akin to a sweatshop than a home.
Read MoreToday is day 4 of my detox and this one is quite different, just as I knew from the outset - but one thing I didn't anticipate was how much better I would feel this time around. So far, I feel far clearer, lighter and as if there are deeper insights coming up.
Read MoreToday the word certainty has been going through my mind - and I am remember events, times and places where I knew in my heart (body?) that if I persisted long enough there would be a good ending. Perhaps even a great result.
Read MoreThere are days and for some of us - weeks, months and years - where nothing seems to be going in the direction we want it to go. But, yet when we look back at different challenging time frames and periods in our lives - we can see change has taken place.
In essence we are getting there. It's just not in the direct route, as quickly as we had hoped and without all of these learning curves...You know, the ones that always end up teaching us something incredibly important - but are so annoying to move through.
Read MoreToday is my second day of this winter detox....and I am already thinking (and knowing) this one will be different. It needs to be. So, I am mixing things up a bit and using different herbs - a lot more of them as well as cutting back on the maple syrup.
Read MoreToday is my first day back doing a cleanse - and I feel pretty good. I also have a great theme this time around too - and last night dreamt all about it. Of course it is along the lines of another blocked area of my life/body - which is where our focus should be.
Read MoreToday has been one of those breakthrough days - or more like a series of mini aahhaa moments. And since this was this long overdue it has kept me busy... You know how it goes, or at least you should because when you are working towards something better, it's nice when the plan starts to come together.
Read MoreThis is a question that is asked most often by people who stop at our stall at the Skibbereen Farmers Market, so I thought I would explain it here.
A Top Bar Hive is an imitation of a hollowed out log with the added advantage of being able to monitor and extract honey with minimal disturbance to the hive. The hive shape and size are a more natural configuration than the common square box widely used. There is also a great amount of open space in the hive that aids in ventilation, which is a major factor in a healthy hive.
There is always a light at the end of the tunnel - of course it leads to the outside. Assuming we have started out on the inside - this is the natural direction we should all be going in. Yet, somehow, some times all we find is more darkness.
