Another inspiring soul.

Possibly the hardest man on the planet, Jason Lewis completed his 13 year circumnavigation of the globe by human power alone.

Check out the details on his website http://www.expedition360.com/
If you live in England you can meet him at another of my fav places The Adventurists, as they are having him to tea (that's scones and tea). http://www.theadventurists.com/

There are some incredible humans on the planet.

Jeremy Gilley. Peace Day 21st September

I'm so happy to have found this and hear Jeremy Gilley's vision. I am so inspired. And moved. And I wonder, how did I not know this before now? It matters not, now I do know and I'll be sure to get involved.

Midday naps assist learning...

New research from the University of California, Berkeley, shows that an hour’s nap can dramatically boost and restore your brain power. Indeed, the findings suggest that a biphasic sleep schedule not only refreshes the mind, but can make you smarter.

So what's biphasic I ask: 
biphasic |bīˈfāzik|
adjective
having two phases the patient's biphasic recovery curve.

Lovely. I know that's also really good for dream-therapy, or at least remembering your dreams. At one stage in my life for about a year I trained myself to wake up after each dream. First of all I set my alarm for 2am and 4am and wrote what I remembered, but then eventually I just awoke several times in the night wrote my dreams and went back to sleep. If our sleep sessions are shorter, it allows less of a line between awake mind and sleeping mind, and therefore opens a world of frequencies that rest in between. Frequencies that would usually only be accessible whilst sleeping can become available whilst we're awake.

Anyway, off now... but my new job means I can have a midday nap every day WHOO HOOO.

Who'd have thought a butchers could be so cool?

Victor Churchill Butcher – Sydney

Gorgeous... and a butchers. Great brand identity. Sexy looking store. And it's dead animals. Doesn't quite compute. Their award-winning website even has i-phone apps. Fabulous job to Dreamtime Australia Design. Their first retail store... and what a job. Certainly on the leading edge of butchery.


 

Inspiration comes from all quarters.

Stumbled upon this music video. Nice track. French. But what a great video. Inspiring for me to see... anyone can make a music video. Really... just takes a little imagination and the inclination to do it.

Ainslie Roberts

Just discovered Ainslie Roberts in a documentary.
His art is really powerful and moving.

Myth lives in his paintings. And the sacredness permeates. 
Magic. Awe inspiring.

He wanted to bridge the gap between white man and the native Australians. His art interprets Aboriginal legends. He spent a lot of time living and walking with the native people.

Bless him. What an amazing man. He said "I truly believe there is no end to us we just go on and on and on." 12 March 1911 - 28 August 1993.

An aside that I just heard : Did you know we look to the left for instinct, and we look to the right for logical analysis?

YikeBike for urban freedom. Let's hope it does what it says on the tin (tranforming urban transport). We need to get those cars out of the city.
