Cape Town Summer

It is summer here in South Africa and Cape Town is the place to be...

Sun, mountains, beautiful beaches surfing and diving.

Even the whales come around to enjoy the atmosphere.

Just in case our little friend looks like a bank robbing masked avenger, let it be known that he was meant to be a diver wearing a mask and snorkel... just in case :)

Honey Bee Facts


Today we pay homage to a furry little insect that is seldom noticed, but in the background goes about its business of maintaining the balance of existence.

Bees have a most exquisite relationship with the plant kingdom. So remarkable is this partnership that without it most of the food we eat would not come into existence...

In exchange for their pollination service flowers supply bees with nectar which the bees process and dehydrate into a delicious healthy treat called honey.

Interesting facts about honey bees:

A hive can easily contain 50 000 bees.

The honey bee is the only insect that produces food for human beings.

The Bushmen of Southern Africa used to collect honey from wild hives. In some cases these hives were passed down from father to son as heirlooms.

While natural honey is packed with goodness, modern day supermarkets often sell irradiated/radurised honey - this is like taking a bunch of beautiful roses and "radiating" them in a microwave oven for 5 minutes (on high) before giving them to someone special - Yes they are still roses, but something has changed :(

Excessive heating of honey destroys its beneficial bacteria, enzymes and amino acids.

Crystallization of honey(when honey changes from a viscous golden liquid) is actually a sign of good quality unprocessed honey.

The worker bees in a hive have to fly around the earth a couple of times (or equivalent distance) to make a single kilogram of honey.

If you want to relocate or move a hive you should move it at least 2 kilometers! If you relocate a hive too close to its original location the worker bees will return to the old site of the hive and die when they find their home missing. If the hive is moved a to a completely new location the bees will recognize this and reset their "internal GPS system" helping them to relocate the moved hive.


Next time you enjoy honey from your local farmers market or health shop remember the little miracles with wings that help bring even more sweetness into our world...

Health is not a destination

An interesting anomaly inherent in earthly incarnation is imperfection.

Even more interesting is how imbalances in mind and spirit manifest most perfectly in the body. With this as the basis of today's post our smiling little being is here to remind that healing and health are not a destination, but a lifestyle.

Balance and harmony are seemingly not constant aspects of our being, but need to be maintained through practices like integrity and cultivating your own personal light and love.

Cherish your light, maintain your love and walk boldly along your path...

Times of Change

As change and newness sweep across this little planet of ours we get the opportunity to watch as old and outdated systems, thought forms and ways of being crumble and vanish.

As human beings we have an interesting way of clinging to the old. Somehow we find security and stability in the familiar, no matter how impractical or obsolete it may be.

As exciting as it may seem, newness has a way of unsettling, even terrifying many a being.

As it has always been and shall forever be - change is sweeping across our world.

Change, could it be the only constant in the universe?

CRABS ?????

Human beings are like crabs...

Some go through life hiding in their shells, while others dance and play, reveling in life.

Some crabs stick to the waters they know, while others venture between the worlds of aqua and air.

Some crabs are dull and colourless, while others are bright and colourfull.

Life is a choice and you only truely see the impact of your choices when they become distant memories.


What kind of crab have you decided to be?
