Harnessing a divine gift to humanity
Imagine being able to feel and sense everything, whether positive or negative around you, 24/7. An Empath can’t turn off empathy (unlike someone who is perhaps ‘empathising’). It is possibly one of the most challenging of psychic gifts to master. I am an Empath who has spent nearly two decades, since awakening, mastering my empathic nature. It is an ongoing process. I am still not perfect and not sure that I ever will be whilst incarnated here. I am however content, despite the challenges of integration, as I see it as an incredible gift to humanity...

Where will it ultimately lead?
It is clear to awakening people everywhere that humanity has reached a crossroads in our evolution. Accelerated climate change, dwindling natural resources and financial instability point to the simple fact that our way of living within society is unsustainable and must change quite radically. A new approach must bring us back into alignment with our natural eco-systems, the underlying consciousness of our planet and the universe as a whole. As the old fear based reality begins to fracture and fragment, increasingly awakening people are becoming aware of a higher energetic paradigm that they can feel in their hearts. The question is, how does it become a reality for us? How do we join it?

A New Earth?
With great excitement, NASA scientists have discovered a new sister planet for earth. She's 'affectionately' called Kepler 22-b. It's given science great hope for the future of humanity when (at the current rate of consumption) it destroys its current home. There's just one problem with the theory, it's 600 light years away! If only NASA was reading the story within the story, the synchronicity that reveals itself even in the new planet's name. Yes there is a second planet, a planet b and it's a helluva lot closer than 600 light years. In fact it's right here, right now, all around us. And we don't need an expensive, high-tech space ship to get there, just our very own higher bodily vehicles of expression. And all we need to do is open into them...

The healing of humanity
Increasingly people within awakening circles are becoming aware of and speaking out about "energetic implants" in our energy fields. Working with energy implants is indeed something we do during the Openhand course and one-on-one work. Implants are prevalent within most, if not all, awakening people. They've been used as a tool by Opposing Consciousness in the 'dumbing-down' of humanity. It's a subject that needs to be elevated into the group consciousness more generally if we are to catalyse and accelerate our further evolution, so that we heal humanity. So what are energetic implants? how do they work? where did they come from? and most importantly of all, how do we remove them?...

Occupy Yourself
I understand the Occupy Movement in America has been temporarily thwarted by heavy-handed police tactics. I'm sure that will only serve to strengthen the movement - our thoughts and wishes here in the UK are with you! At Openhand, we've been speaking to people about the "GATEWAYS rEVOLUTION" that we can each be a part of, wherever you are and in whatever circumstances. People have been asking me about what this means exactly, what steps can evolving people take? Well to me, evolution is the key AND that does lead to practical steps to change our reality from the inside out. Here are 10 steps we could all take which in my view would begin to have a profound and positively growing impact in the group consciousness. It's all about occupying ourselves...

We are the creators and therefore masters
The "Occupy" movement is now spreading to other parts of the world reflecting a general unrest within the collective consciousness about injustice within our society. Here at Openhand we've been exploring the true meaning and value of protest. We've been asking: "how do we truly change our world right now, in a way that is better for all life? How do we bring greater equity, justice and harmony to our lives and across the planet as a whole?" To me, there is one truly effective way: to recognise that everything is consciousness, that we are the creators and therefore masters of our reality...

A profound route map for human evolution
It is just a few weeks now since we released our documentary "5 Gateways" about the five key expansions on route to Enlightenment and mankind's immediate destiny - Ascension. Which to us means the unfolding into a higher energetic paradigm existing here and now all around us. In that short time, around 40,000 people have viewed the film from all corners of the globe. The response has been far more poignant than we could ever have imagined. We are receiving not only much gratitude, but frequently a sense of relief. We are hearing that the Five Gateways route map is helping awakening people everywhere bring into context just what they are going through and exactly why their lives are taking the twists and turns they are. So what exactly are the Gateways, why are they so important and how can they be of such profound help?...

What does the Fifth Dimension look like?
On the site recently we've been talking about "Radical Forgiveness" and creating what I call "Positive Feedback Loops". I mentioned this could have a profound, accelerating effect on our spiritual evolution. Synchronistically, I was drawn today to this youtube clip from "The Celestine Prophecy", which to my mind gives a really excellent overview of what The Fifth Dimension 'looks' like and how we get there. I find great alignment of the film with the Openhand Approach and the process I've described in Five Gateways. Here's a wonderful video summation of the film. Enjoy, let it boost your day and your evolution!...

Science meets spirituality to demystify and debunk
As 2012 fast approaches many awakening people are beginning to ask what's going to happen? How are our lives going to be effected? Here at Openhand, our purpose is to dispel the hype, myth and glamour associated with this entirely natural planetary and human process. We maintain that all of the vital issues we're currently facing right now such as global warming, peak oil, the credit crunch etc etc can be solved by understanding and aligning with this internal shift of consciousness. That's why we feel given to share our views in our "Gateways Seminar". Here is a 30 minute video clip from our last event in Byron Bay, Australia...

Beginning of the end or end of the beginning?
Increasingly people are asking about our views on the prophecies of 2012. What's going to happen? How will our lives change? Is the world going to come to an end? Here at Openhand we don't see ourselves as prophets. We all have the capacity to change and if we live our lives according to what we desire, expect or fear in the future, then our consciousness is increasingly removed from the only thing of value that we really possess - the moment of now. It is only by being fully present in the moment that we can truly effect or change things according to our intended destiny. The interesting paradox is that when we're being fully present, we unfold into multiple dimensions of reality; we gain access to a wider truth, one where the foundations of 2012 have already being laid. So what is really going on in our expanded reality?....
