Why Are You Doing What You Are Doing?

by Rhianna on April 7, 2014

On Friday I drove for over an hour to visit a monk (not exactly my usual Friday). In our hour and a half chat, he told me the same things that numerous practitioners and friends have been telling me for the last 10 years. Meditate more. Relax more. Take time out during your day to

Why We Don’t Say No…

by Rhianna on March 31, 2014

I think I have mentioned before, that during the Embracing Health Detoxification Retreats, we often see themes develop in the groups we get.

Fukushima Update

by Rhianna on March 10, 2014

Anyone who is a regular reader will remember the blog posted a month or so ago about the truth behind those bargain holidays.

How Kind Are You To YOU?

by Rhianna on March 7, 2014

Just a quick blog today on self love. How often do you show yourself that you love you? It is sad to think that the majority of women out there have a head full of negative self talk, rather than positive love and affirmation for their individual, divine beauty. I know it can be hard,
