    "Your task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it and embrace them." 
    Rumi 
    Author and teacher Clare Dimond, spends her life exploring how our idea of ourselves, reality and other people are creations of our beliefs and conditioning. 
    One day, after a wonderfully romantic weekend, a man she thought she had fallen in love with told her, 'I haven't met anyone yet.' 
    She uses the intensity of her reaction to this as the starting point in a book about what is revealed in our responses to what other people say and do. 
    It is her most personal of her eight books to date as she explores how reality is always a projection from within and as such offers a continual space for healing and integrating the wounds and losses of our past. 
    Although on the surface it is about dating, the book is relevant to all relationships and interactions in which we feel vulnerable, in which there is potential for rejection and exclusion. 
    And it is about how, ultimately, these moments are the gateway to a profound freedom, stability and love that is beyond our wildest dreams…

    In this audio listening experience, Sara Dylan will lead you gently into a quiet meditation by the sea with gentle waves lapping on the sea shore. It is a sunny day, nice and warm, with an occasional gentle cool breeze. 
    You can choose what you see in your mind’s eye; you can look out across the sea or to the water’s edge; you can turn your head and look around and along the beach. 
    There are very few people about and you are safe to completely relax. 
    “The calming nature of waves crashing against the sand comes down, possibly, to two things: the waves remind us of our own breath, and they never stop. 
    Meditation practices focus on “watching the breath” and how breathing never leaves us while we live. Similarly, the relentlessness of waves lapping against the shore can be reassuring.” Wallace Nichols, California Academy of Sciences, US 
    Relax and enjoy. 
    Gentle meditative music has been added to enhance your experience.

    Is healing an internalised process, or does something as basic as a gentle touch enable us to heal? Is sex overrated? Or does the physical intimacy, touch, and connection between two human beings act as a balm for bruised souls? While sex is the most natural act of living beings as an expression of love, affection, kinship, and connection, it is interesting to discover that it can also act as a great healer in times of setbacks or adversities.
