I'm sure most of you, finding yourselves here, are sensitive and creative people. This is your chance to own some art.

I wanted to let you all know, that in celebrating the successful launch of Samson Photo Studio, I am running a competition through the facebook page here.

For several months I have not been in that special head space where blogging well and consistently is possible.

But what is intuition?

Intuition, like so many things in life, is not easy to define. You can’t see it, or touch it or smell it.

Intuition is knowing, without knowing how you know.

Many of you will have heard of spiritual healing.

I remember healing friends when I was younger, of ailments such as headaches. I would channel the energy through my palm chakras, visualising light and love flowing through me into them. Some said they felt warmth, others reported a tingling feeling.
