That bird is stalking me. It flies in front of me and then behind me and then sits on my bench with me. My Australian mum said it’s a Willie Wagtail. What a name, :). The nature up here is like a fairy tale. The hills, rivers, waterholes and ocean is a short drive away. Makes me feel guilty for asking something else; but that’s how we get clarity in things.
Maybe we should start a coffee column here. It’s such a lovely ‘problem’ to have. lol My coffee adventures? After 3 months of constantly not-so-good coffee, to put it nicely, visits to many cafes around the town & often times travels of 20 min. to the beach to get a normal one, I found a coffee nook with a man and a coffee machine in it, and he makes a great coffee, and it’s a 5 min. walk from my place, and he is fun to chat with. How can it get better than that? On Saturday I got there late, around 8am. He suggested a beach day (most of the time he makes fun of me for how many clothes I have on; last time he asked if it was going to snow, and I said, ‘Well, you have to be prepared’). Today he suggested a swim since it’s such a nice day; the sun was shining bright, but it was 11 degrees Celsius/ 51.8F. I said, ‘Sure, after 2 shots of vodka, that’s how it’s done overseas.’ I actually have never done it…hm. I haven’t done too many ‘normal’ things. He said, ‘Yeah, what a start of the day that would be…lol.’
This town, that bars town. Like time travel to another era but so much art, culture and creativity. It almost feels like it has been choosing to stay back in time. Many people are wearing black. Like my newly found friend said, it’s almost like a suburb of Melbourne; it could be true.
I have been to a few Chambers of Commerce meetings, and it’s inspiring and very exciting what’s ahead of this place.
My birthday is done for this year; it made me humble, if anything. I’ve been living here only for 6 months… Yes, humbled.
This week I saw an echidna for the first time in nature, and Sunday morning I saw a platypus! Ok, now please try to say that last animal’s name, :). I was able to get my Australian friend, an English native, so confused that even she couldn’t say ‘platypus’. Fun. 🙂
Bars. I just filled out a form where I had to put in one sentence. What do you enjoy about Access Bars, and how has it contributed to your life? Did it create a change in your life, work, or way of being?
Overseas I used to be an unfulfilled, overworked professional, which led me to look into different possibilities and perspectives in life. I moved to another continent, gained an MBA, and most importantly, gained access to my creativity, many different parts of me that have become the joy. 14 years of practicing Access Bars has created a lot more than that.
Bars at the markets are always fun, even because you see all these people putting out their creations of all kinds. The conversations, the atmosphere – it’s a very Australian thing that starts to land only now. If you’re somewhere in the corner of the world wondering whether you could move here then all you need is: 1. be a man 2. have a hard skill, sry ladies generally speaking your gender & education aren’t helping with it, however something else is always possible.
At the markets people that come up for a bars, so many want to chat a lot; many have had horrific health issues, still have them, and they are exhausted. One diagnosis after another, and now they’re just tired of living.
One, let’s say, 60-year-old guy who had had a spine injury was just learning to walk again; who had been chiropracticing in his life and has a son who does reiki and massage, gave bars a go. He was a bit teary before we started… We had quite a chat. Guilt was pouring out of his every move, and he said he had risen as a Catholic; he suggested that explained it. After the session he said, ‘You have such a good touch’. Although it’s not about touch, it was great to hear from someone who has experience in this area. ‘I said I care… that’s that.’ We had another chat afterwards. He was literally bubbly and came back 3 times to say thank you and to give me organic garlic. It’s so awesome when people acknowledge the difference.
Many people overextended themselves in all directions in their life and still feel they didn’t do enough. Most of the time it’s a mom’s guilt but obviously men have that too. It’s often that when I say it’s ok to be happy, they tear up.
I am telling it to you now; it’s ok to be happy!
And then a lady, very determined, came up to me and said, ‘I want your energy!’ 😅
She lay down, and she was the kind whose energy felt like a brick wall, locked down, almost guarded; it happens rarely. I felt it with my client as well a while ago, and with every session her energy got more into flowing, and her life as a consequence. Some people do not feel anything but have determination to do what it takes to create a change, and they do. With Access Bars, you don’t have to believe in it for it to work.
For the record, it’s not my energy you’re receiving; it’s just through me. Otherwise, I’d be exhausted, but instead I am enormously energised after that. The longest I have run bars without a break was 6h for 6 people in a row; it was to donate money to the non-profit organisation Operation Underground Railroad, now called Our Rescue (www.OURrescue.org), an organisation that works to combat human trafficking and child sexual exploitation through field operations, survivor support, and training and prevention programmes.
What if so little is required of you to change things, but are you willing to? You’re reading here, but are you receiving it?
People suffering so much, tired of living. What would it take to change that?
Doctors can’t do the impossible, but you can by changing your perspectives.
I have a vision with bars, always had; I do not know if actualisation will become available, but I will follow the breadcrumbs, and the rest is the universe! I have a lead… Send some magic!
By saying all that, if you feel like you resonate and have a hunch I could contribute to you, feel free to reach out. You have everything in you; you just need to make room for it and access it.
I also haven’t forgotten to write about what I promised; I’ve done my part; I am waiting for technicalities.
Ps. I found out that there is out there another one doing their fights like I used to, so share your weirdness and you’ll find out you’re not the only one. By saying that, if you asked me if I should do it again, I wouldn’t, just because something much easier is available now or rather ease is available for me now because I’m choosing it.

A song: So good! I found 3 versions of it. The lady did it this time!
