The equality, diversity and inclusivity meditation

Find a quiet, safe private place. Close your eyes if possible and/or if desired (make sure you’re not in charge of a vehicle or heavy machinery). Take some deep breaths. Slow your breathing down. Right down – that’s it, long deep breaths. Aaaaaaaah. Go in your mind to your favourite place on the planet. If […]

I'm ba-ack!!

After long blogging absence, I'm ba-ack!! This website has been a long time in the making. Many contributed ideas and some development along the way; ultimately it was Heartfelt Tech and the wonderful Sarah George who helped get the site to the point of saying "we have lift-off."

2014 looking back and 2015 looking further up

Back...to the Future: speech at Health in Difference 18 April 2013

I thought I'd share a speech/presentation I gave last year at Health in Difference 8. Unfortunately, the audio recording didn't quite work; I hope the words can at least give the sense of sense of vision and possibility. And a few things have changed since, but I'll post it as it was delivered.

Increasingly, there are days when I walk out 40...or 50... or...60 cm above the ground. How so, you ask? It's when I have a "two-way street" […]

MindOUT! Conference 26-27 June: When worlds collide...clearing a head-on crash at my queer intersection
