The sneaky habit that will have you feeling grateful

March 29, 2017 By Karen Main Leave a Comment

I came alone.  The room inside lit by hundreds of candles, the aroma wafting down the street offering a hit of the decadence within. I entered to find a sea of goddesses all sitting cross-legged on the floor.  Floaty dresses, hair in messy buns and a tribal beat playing softly in the background. I’d dreamed of […]

Why that space between desire and manifestation is so richly rewarding

October 7, 2016 By Karen Main 2 Comments

My house is going to auction tomorrow. I’m equal parts nervous and excited. I’ve been asked many times if I’m looking forward to when ‘its all over’.  And the truth, it’s a bit of Yes and a bit of No. When I imagine that day when the move has been made and we’re settled into our new home I feel a […]

The truth about my 14 year old dream

September 16, 2016 By Karen Main Leave a Comment

dream

I still remember the first time I met this dream. It was a warm September day, 14 years ago, and I was staying with a dear friend on her property outside of Noosa. We were strolling along her street, a country road really, with her toddler son skipping along between us hoping to show him the donkey who lived down the […]

What would feel like an absolute pleasure right now? My client squirmed and whispered.  “Pleasure? Me?   Uuuugghhhh!   I dunno”. I persisted, (because that’s what a coach does.)  What do you crave, yearn for or secretly desire? More of the same…   “I don’t really think about feelings like that.” “Okay then….   How about we make a […]

Busy! What to do when you have more to do than time to do it.

Time

We’ve all had one of those days. Washing is piled high and it’s pouring with rain outside. The kids have parties and you promised to bake cupcakes.  Work has called needing you to extend your shift…  and you’ve remembered hubby needs his suit dry cleaned before the weekend. It’s not even 9am and already you’re pushing aside […]

10 rituals that are making me feel totally nourished

In a recent workshop a participant described her life as a roller coaster that never stops.  I noticed many heads nodding around the room, a sign there were many rollercoaster lives being lived. I understand that rollercoaster feeling.  The dips and bends tossing you about, as the demands of life drag you along. At best you […]

Invite in possibility and dance wildly with your dreams

wait

It was a fleeting moment, in a busy day, more than five years ago. I had just finished work, the book-keeping for my husband, and had 10 minutes to spare before picking the kids up from school. I was perusing my inbox when an image caught my eye.  I lingered on the article, a behind the scenes […]
