  • I have a question - 60 seconds on absolute presence with your biggest fear, or running for the rest of your life? What i fucking love most about life is that when we chase a feeling, we get lost, make shitty decisions, twist ourselves into a pretzel and then we wind up realising that the thing we were chasing was just an object, a representation to a part of our mind that said "this" is going to give me X feeling. Its fucking wild, really. Because if we can sit back and look at what kind of objects we chase (or even more so, ones we run from to avoid things like rejection, criticism, failure or too much vulnerability in life) we'll see just how much we aren't living, but avoiding. And THEN, well then we can have a little chat with ourselves about how fucking silly we can sometimes be when it comes to running to and from things that are just imagined happiness or pain. And THEN, well then, we can stop doing that silly shit and begin to live. I go on and on about meditation and mindfulness not just because it's a self mastery tool, but because this good shit takes you all the way IN. Into yourself, a space where fears, emotions, discomfort can be attended to tenderly, lovingly, patiently and fearlessly to bring us some wisdom or just a release. Emotions are just energy. Feelings are just conversations between emotions and our body and mind. So. Why dont we choose to take the time to sit and be with ourselves and access joy from inside, so that all the other fun shiny stuff is a bonus, not a constant destination we seek. Meditation and mindfulness isn't about avoiding whats uncomfortable, its actually presence with it. This is where self control comes from. Do you think being able to be present and move through uncomfortable conversations with loved ones, or business deals that scare the shit out of you, or setting boundaries, or asking for what you need or going on adventures, or letting go of control, or breaking out of a mindset that is so safe (and bullshit) it strangles you - is kinda important? They’re THE most important things in existence. Courage & resilience come from inside. Pause. See what youre chasing or running from. Ang go in❤
  • Look I know that Victoria Secret will be calling me soon, but I’m just busy eating apple strudel. I’m also working on my modelling skills (checking for underarm hair etc - look, travelling has its perks and downfalls). Hope y’all having a rad Sunday. I swear I’m doing more than mountains and beaches - like planning a free mindfulness festival on the Gold Coast in September - keep your eyes and ears open, loves. Details coming soon. Off to drive the Albanian Riviera #beach #model #instamodel #not #montenegro #mindful #meditation #instagood #picoftheday #goldcoastfestival #mindful #travel #doyoutravel #ocean #beach
  • These animals bring such rare elements together. Strength, grace, beauty, spirit, freedom, power, trust and love. To ride with a horse is to taste life so deeply, so humbly. There is nothing more liberating than being so connected to an animal that could kill you and handing all of your trust to them anyway. It’s love at the deepest level. They teach you everything you need to learn know to just be in life in a way that’s like water. To flow. Absolute presence. I think, she moves. I feel, she reacts. She tests me, I hold my ground. We talk to each other in energy. Plus, the scenery. See my IG story for breathtaking views of Montenegro. Off to explore Tara river. Stay tuned for aqua gorges. Oh, life. #montenegro #travel #horsebackriding #love #freedom #grace
  • Tag your strong friend. Let them know you got em’. I legit write down the names of four very powerful women in my journal every night. Yeh - I journal, guys. It’s a thing that dumps and softens the noise, helps me draw the wisdom from my day and reflect, re focus and most of all cement in the value of life through the storms and the sunshine. Back on track. Each of these women are so unique. There is one thing that we all share that binds us together closer than friendship or even blood: a deep alignment with our highest values & ruthless honestly with each other. Seriously, there is zero tolerance for bullshit and THIS is supporting each other. The thing is, we each would likely be considered that “strong” friend. It’s true, women in general are strong and inspiring, some are legit hero’s. For a long time I just did me. Moved house by myself. Started companies by myself. Travelled the world by myself. Moved cities by myself. Self cares when sick by myself. Etc etc. I’m down with this, but I tell ya, the difference it makes to have women so powerful not just ask how I am, but follow up with both words & actions, especially when not asked is one of the only things that makes me cry with joy (besides watching the Football (soccer) ). The feeling is like seven fucking Christmas puddings shoved in your soul. Two of them literally make me food on an almost daily basis because they know I’ll work & forget to eat. They know this so they just do it. No request ever needed. It’s magic. Support is empowering. Most people at their core don’t feel truly supported & safe & this ripples into their micro actions. A lot of peoples lives are filled with micro actions stemming from scarcity & worthlessness & they’re completely oblivious to it. When we feel & see supported, we shift something inside & we begin to live from a totally new space. One of a deeper love & fresh fullness. It’s fucking rad. Check in on your strong people. Doesn’t matter their gender, age, race or status. Do it. Then follow it up. You change their life, your life (that innate pull inside to contribute) & you also just might get your name is someone’s evening journal.
  • So it’s yoga day or something. Yoga, really, is about a way of being, it’s not the doing. Being fucking kind to people. Being kind to yourself, especially. Being kind to our planet. Remember we’re all in this together. Rising. Falling. Dreaming. Do shit that makes your heart warm and happy and joyful. Open your heart, even when it hurts but don’t be a doormat. Risk. It. All. Because, all of this stuff ends. Don’t get caught up in being too happy or too evolved or too popular, it’s all temporary. Simply concern yourself with being. That’s it. Sit. Breathe. Drop in. Listen. Follow. Fall down. Learn. Begin again. Be kind to others. Be kind to yourself. Continue. Let go. Love. Yoga! #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #handstand #being #notreallyyoga #justfun #samesame #love

  • Inspiring quotes are really not my style. Firstly because I think people consume them like a drug and it becomes as additive and dangerous as sugar. A little but if disease and a little bit of avoiding the good (harder/deeper) shit. Thirdly because the consumption of “self-help” creates this ‘master’ and ‘student’ relationship, where we forget you’ve got a ton of wisdom in the galaxy of our own consciousness ready to be explored. However, Hafiz is an exception to my no-inspo-fucking-quote-sharing promise as he’s not inspirational, in fact, the kind of love he’s talking about is beyond fathomable or entertained by most of us. It’s not romantic, sweet or blindings. It’s raw, ego breaking and takes a spectacular amount of courage. It’s an unconditional flow of love, a filling up from within and giving without expectation. Giving for the sake of giving, giving because it’s the whole fucking point. The feeling of unlove, within ourselves or from others is the foundation of all fear. I’m totally exhausted from tonsillitis and about to nap after landing in Croatia, to dive much deeper. But in summary, “let it go” and “dive in” are not about being ignorantly compassionate or void of responsibility, the root of all the most courageous acts come from the heart. An unconditional, uncontained, untamed love that’s beyond wrong or right. If you sit with yourself long enough, breathe past the feeling of unsettled boredom, you’ll touch that place. Once you’re there, stay, cultivate and then sprinkle that shit through every aspect of your life. It’s the ultimate learning every single on of us is here to master. So cheers, Hafiz 🤘🏼❤️
  • Fear, overthinking, emotions, a core sense of unworthiness no matter what your external looks like… Failure? Nope. Symptoms of being a human being. Each of us has a tale to tell about a moment in time we weren’t accepted, we were unwanted, unloved or not enough. We’ve all felt rejected, repressed, exiled, suffocated and criticised. In our adult life, we are all unpacking these instances by re-living them and if we choose, to process them successfully so we can move forward a little lighter and brighter (maybe). Life works in cycles and it’s when we hold too tightly to our self perceptions or projections that we fuck it all up. Ultimately, we reject ourselves through the eyes of conditional love and worthiness. Idiots. Unconditional, that’s the key, kids. You are born. You get grown ups who take care of you, or don’t. You figure X = Y. (This happened therefore I am...) That plays out in life. You learn from it, or you don’t. You feel all the things, or you don’t. You surrender, feel them, process whatever was coming up, or you don’t. You begin to realise it’s just easier if you get cozy with the uncomfortable parts of life and stop that avoidance bullshit or you don’t. You grow or you don’t. You become more aware and lighter in life or you don’t. Repeat until you die. My point is – this growth, evolve, breakdown is on repeat. So, you may as well have a fk ton of fun in between. Stop trying to fix yourself. Stop trying to fight your humanness. Stop trying to escape into the ‘light’, chase the cosmos – you are it, knucklehead. You are also a human – so you’re here to enjoy, endure and experience the full spectrum. Final point… Stop trying so hard. Have fun. Stay wild. Stay open. Throw yourself into things that feel like engulfing love, but never to avoid pain. Comfort addiction and rigid beliefs will screw you, hard, because the only constant is change. If you’re as equally uncomfortable as you are excited, chances are you’re probably headed in the right direction. Be willing to screw it all up (because, seriously, you can’t). Just, do you. Love, me Wouldn’t you agree!? Wrote a ridic long article - the full version is in the link in ze bio 👆🏼👆🏼
  • Stayin’ dry at #Bergenfest with this rad guy. My love for travel is perpetuated by humans like this. Today’s agenda: Eat a boller(delicious custard filled pastry) Climb a large mountain with loads of steep stairs. Maybe some more bollen. Get a tattoo. Return to the festival and eat up some gorgeous music. Jump in all the puddles. Perhaps we might stay dry. Probs not. Who cares. Lifes okay.
  • If anybody wants me, I’ll be sprinkling terrible humour across Europe for a month. Working and travelling (trust me its not all rainbows so don’t you dudes go comparing your life, k?). Who has been to Albania or Montenegro?? Any tips? I’m landing in Norway and scooting straight off to visit a dear friend of mine before heading to eastern Europe with another. TBH I’m just the comedy relief. As long as you give me coffee and mountains, I’ll keep quiet (for five for so). I want to just say, don’t get caught up in #livinthedream it’s a very hefty fee I pay for such a travel-work balance and to be fair, a part of me was going to bail on this trip to ride the current wave of momentum of @calmmindproject and then I totally forgot that everything I’m about (may not be your cup of tea) is actually, tasting life. If Mums death taught me anything, its that life can be terribly painful if youre rigid in mind or life AND you can overcome all sorts of madness in yourself and life, but you must keep your sparkle alight to let life teach you. You know, move your insides about a little, let things rise up and be freed, let that integrate and begin again! So, instead of always pushing so hard out of fear or trying with too much to control and manipulate life to be what you want it to be, relax, enjoy, even if taking that space feels a little uncomfortable. The mind is a magnificent thang if you use it well, but if you live there, you’ll only ever see things through the lens of survival (am I enough, will I be loved) and while the ego plays an excellent roll in kicking us into evolution, if it’s the captain, then it’s easy to forget the Magic that’s, well, non-mind. When you tap into *that* through throwing yourself out of the nest (solid structure and where you feel safe, which for me, safe = work) then you shift from a paradigm of needing to learn from pain, to understanding how to create from action and intention of love. It’s pretty sweet. So I’m off to get some of both. Who gets what I’m sayin’? You dig? PS thanks to my IG boyfriend @spiritedseeker for this pic (and most of) my snaps 🤘🏼❤️
  • I have a confession. I’m terrified to go to Europe for a month tomorrow because these humans literally feed me every day. I can teach kids to meditate but do you think I care to throw together more than steamed veggies and or a banana and peanut butter for dinner? Look, before you get all up in my grill, I make the best raw peanut butter chocolate and also, great coffee. So I feel like it’s even - right? But I do need your opinion, please read on. So, tonight we were having a discussion about what we want from men and I quoted something I read once that said, “don’t tell me you miss me, tell me you’re outside with tacos. Actions”. And to my horror, these humans all mumbled something about not really liking tacos. We resigned a 12 month lease today, guys and Im now freaking out. How can I trust people who don’t love tacos? Should I, or should I not find a new place to live? What would you do?
