Thoughtful gifting 💞🤗✨️

Here is an illustration of the problem with the Golden Rule (to treat others the same way we want to be treated). The Golden Rule is well-intentioned, but it is short-sighted and out-dated.

The Platinum Rule, on the other hand: treating others the way THEY want to be treated, accounts for our differences, takes other people into consideration, and acknowledges that we don't all like or want the same things.

In this illustration, if the dog had followed the Golden Rule, he would have gifted the cat a bone or a chew toy. But, a mindful gift does NOT treat others the way we want to be treated, it invites us to remove our personal preferences from the equation altogether, and take others into consideration.

This isn't about gifts, cats, or dogs, of course, my intention is remind you (and myself) that making assumptions about other people based on our limited world view is narrow-minded and often wrong. Let's do the vulnerable and compassionate thing, remove ourselves from the center of the Universe, and put others there instead. 🙏

Merry Christmas 💝🎄🎅

Hope you all and your families and loved ones, have a fantabulous time with yummy food and making happy memories 🎄 ❤️

And to the many, for whom this time of year is especially challenging, please be kind and gentle to yourself, with compassion and grace.

Family can appear in many disguises, the wildlife in your garden, your furbabies here as companions or in Spirit.

Light a candle 🕯 Say a prayer 🏳for peace and Love for the world 🌎 .

Let's shine our Love 🌞 brightly and demonstrate the true meaning of unconditional love and kindness to all our fellow beings, both human ans animal alike.🙏🕯🌎🏳✨️💞🥰🤗

If you’re missing your furry, feathered, or scaled angel 😇 🌟 this Christmas, 🎄 you’re not alone.
Or maybe, perhaps a human family member in Heaven.

The Heart-Soul bond shared between you 🎀 and your loved ones, now in Spirit 🌟 is eternal.

Love is the most powerful energy.💖

Energy cannot be destroyed it only transforms.

How do you honour your cherished loved ones who reside in Spirit?🕯

Do you have a tree bauble to tribute? Or a picture on a shelf, a tribute dedicated to those no longer with us.

Do you take a quiet moment to reflect, to light a 🕯 candle?

Some holidays feel quieter when someone we love is missing—especially the ones who made our home feel warmer just by being in it. 🕯️💕🐾

Once beside you, now forever connected by heart.
They physically may not be present, but if you listen silently with your heart....

You may just feel their energetic presence 💞

They never really left you 🌟 they live on Eternally, deep with in your heart 💝

As a gift of Love, tonight, at 8pm AEDT, and every evening including Dec,24th, I will be offering Distance Reiki healing session to the universe, sharing love, light and peace.

This healing energy is offered freely to anyone who is open to receiving.

At anytime over the next few days, if you need an energy boost, just Take a moment to pause for a moment.

Take several slow deep breaths, inhale slowly, pause, and exhale.

Simply set your intention to receive healing energy in alignment for your own highest good.

Continue breathing and Visualise a golden white light ✨️ showering over you.

This pure universal energy flows gentle from the top your your head, to the tips of your toes.

Feel revitalised, rejuvenated and refreshed.

All is well. All is well. All is well. 🌟💕

Today is International Human Rights Day, a reminder that safety, dignity, and mental health are not privileges. They are human rights. And LGBTQ+ young people in the United States deserve nothing less.

According to our 2024 U.S. National Survey, 39% of LGBTQ+ young people seriously considered attempting su***de in the last year, including 46% of transgender and nonbinary youth – and more than 1 in 10 LGBTQ+ youth attempted su***de . LGBTQ+ youth of color reported even higher rates than their white peers.

These numbers aren’t abstract. They represent young people navigating anti-LGBTQ+ victimization, discrimination, and political hostility. These young people deserve to exist without fear.

On International Human Rights Day, we reaffirm that LGBTQ+ young people’s safety is not up for debate. Protecting their rights means ensuring access to supportive communities, uplifting environments, and inclusive mental health care.

A safer, more just world for LGBTQ+ youth is possible, and together, we can build it.

A cheeky Bull-yearling and his equine companion are caught live on a house-cam video in the NT!
Seen exploring inside their house, after the dogs eagerly assisted in the shenanigans by opening the door! 🤣🐂🐎🐕

An NT resident tells of discovering he had unexpected guests in his home, after his dogs were filmed nudging open a door and letting inside a pet bull and horse.

My cherished Hector had surgery on Friday & unfortunately the very skilled Vet, did encounter some unforeseen issues.

An extended surgery is always risky but in this case it was most necessary.

4 hours later, a large growth removed for biopsy & a further 13 teeth extractions.

I am so very grateful for the amazing veterinary teams who cared for Hector and ensured thorough follow-up.

Due to further complications due to a reaction to medication 💊 poor Hector began projectile vomiting and shaking having a severe allergic reaction.

We rushed him back to the vet for further treatments where the Vet team ensured Hector's health, comfort and care is top priority.

After some time in observations, a review witb his surgeon, and then were provided with alternative medications and strict Instructions for rest and recovery, we were sent home again.

I am so very grateful for the brilliant care, and service of our amazing veterinarian teams in Ballarat , Eastwood Veterinary Clinic and Ballarat Veterinary Practice at Wendouree.
And of course for the abundance of Vetpay 💞🐾💝

Chilling with Hector and the cats in Reiki meditation for calm healing and resting restoring the harmony to the house hold sanctuary of our home is top priority at the moment. 💞🐾💖

On Sunday, I attended a Reiki Share Day for practitioners. 💙
It was a beautiful calming and nourishing Reiki share event hosted by Maya, our Chair of Reiki Australia, guiding and leading the board of directors & RA community. 💕✨️⛩️

It was a lovely event where we were gently guided to connect with Reiki and allow our brightest Reiki light and energy to fill the sacred healing circle. Such a sacred and uplifting experience.🙌💞

Each practictioner had the opportunity to be part as both a receiver and offering Reiki with others. Each practitioner lays on the Reiki table to receive healing from multiple practitioners at one time.
A powerful, yet gentle nurturing experience.

I do struggle to find the right words to describe how profoundly deep and spiritual it feels, (a huge understatement ) to receive Reiki from multiple practitioners at once. 💖🙏

An incredibly unique, yet powerful healing session, to be helpd in sacred healing space, sharing the experience with other like-minded spiritual seekers who wish to deepen their journey with Reiki. 💙✨️

I am so very grateful to connect with so many beautiful souls and to take part in such special and meaningful ways. 💙🙌✨️🌟

We had so much fun, being fully event in the moment with each other during the Reiki share event, I totally forgot to take some photos to memorialise the day.😉🥰

Thank you everyone 💓 ☺️

Love this analogy, 🥄 🥄 🥄 🥄 🥄

🥄 "Where Did All My Spoons Go?" — A Spoon Theory Reflection for Humans (and Horses) 🥄

Inspired by Christine Miserandino’s Spoon Theory.

You know those days where everything feels too much? You cry over something small. You can’t get off the sofa. You snap, shut down, or ghost everyone. And you think,
“Why am I like this?”
“Other people seem to manage.”
“I used to be able to do more…”

Let us offer this: 🧠 It’s not that you're lazy. 🐴 It's not that you're dramatic. 💔 It's not that you're broken. You're just… out of spoons.

Imagine you start each day with a little pile of spoons. Each spoon is your energy, focus, tolerance, patience, or presence. You use them to:
🧼 Get out of bed
💬 Make conversation
🚗 Drive somewhere
🧾 Read your emails
🤕 Mask your pain
🙃 Pretend you’re OK

Some people wake up with 10 spoons. Others? Maybe 3. And trauma? Anxiety? Grief? Chronic illness? Neurodivergence? They all steal spoons before your day even starts. And sometimes — like our cartoon pony — you sit there staring at a heap of dropped spoons wondering: “How did I use them all already?”

🌿 At Equimotional, we teach this to kids, teens, adults — and even horses. We don’t shame the meltdown. We don’t pathologise the overwhelm. We get that reacting to a dropped spoon isn’t about the spoon. It’s about the dozen you spent just trying to show up. We meet you there — with horses who understand the weight behind a reaction. And with tools to help you manage what spoons you have, not shame you for the ones you’ve lost.

Let’s stop asking “What’s wrong with me?”
And start asking:
✨ “What’s taking my spoons?”
✨ “Where can I put a few back?”
