Nothing

HK heartbeat -- the natural network

This week, I am in full on reflection mode.

When the calendar turned, I remembered those early days.

Email requests for spelt and meditation circles and homeopaths.

Questions about full spectrum lighting, Qigong and holistic dentists.

I connected the dots and recognized the local appetite for natural health.

Here we are 20 years later and still the same questions but more answers.

And now there are more people asking and more people with answers.

When I'm out talking to people, I just want us all to know each other.

My vision of staying connected with information remains the same.

Those big plans are yet to be manifested with our organic growth.

There are so many wonderful conversations yet to be shared.

An idea born all those years ago still burns brightly today.

Sometimes the best daily plan is the do nothing strategy.

In empty space there is room for intuition to be heard.

Sometimes it feels like I've done nothing these years.

Today, it feels like I wouldn't change a single thing.

Timing is about listening to my own heartbeat.

There is nothing I would do differently.

If I had, we would not be here now.

I am liking this moment we are in.

The future is so very bright.

We're ready for twenty.

Can you do nothing?

Naturally,

Founder
