ARE YOU READY FOR ANOTHER GROUNDHOG DAY ?
Groundhog Day is celebrated on 2nd February in the USA. It’s supposedly the day that groundhogs come out of hibernation and peek out to see if it’s Spring yet.
If it’s not, they return to their burrow for another six weeks or so of slumber…..
In the 1993 movie Bill Murray relives the same day over and over until he learns how to live properly……
But it’s not just a quaint American custom or funny movie.
It’s reality.
For most of us, Groundhog Day DOES happen every day!
We get woken up at the same time by an alarm.
We get up at the same time and go to the toilet.
We shower the same as usual.
We listen to the radio as per usual.
We have breakfast with the same people.
We brew coffee as per usual.
We get dressed as per usual and wear the same clothes as usual.
We take the same transport option at the same time to the same job.
We do pretty much the same work.
We stop for the same morning tea and lunch breaks.
At the end of the same work day period we make our same way home to the same house with the same people inside it…….
We have dinner as usual; and talk about the same things as usual.
We look up the same news sites on the internet.
We follow the same people on Twitter and Facebook.
We watch the same TV programs; and finally fall asleep in the same bed next to the same person (if we have one)…..
Next morning we get woken up again at the same time by the same alarm……..
Some of us have probably been doing the same thing the same way with the same people for more than 20 years!
That’s the equivalent of around 7,000 consecutive Groundhog days!
What’s your record? How many days has it been ‘Groundhog Day’ for you?
Of course, the answer isn’t to do things differently for the sake of doing things differently but to do things differently by doing them consciously!
When we do things consciously both our actions and our outcomes are changed by the spiritual intent of our activity.
It might seem like just another Groundhog day – but the day we wake up is the day we come out of hibernation and start living our life consciously.
And when we do so, we effortlessly express the Love we are!!
And that day, for all of us, surely can’t come quickly enough!
Blessings and hugs,
Les

LIFE AFTER DEATH
We may not want to but we all have to face death: both of ourselves and of our loved ones. There’s simply no way to avoid it. This week, my dear friend and colleague Maureen Cooke, Minister of The Church of Enlightenment in Port Macquarie, quietly transitioned. She was 95 and had given her life
BEING BORN AGAIN….
Dear Friends, A number of you have commented on how lucky we are to live in a community that is relatively safe. A couple mentioned they felt it was a conscious choice they made in spirit following their previous life….. As I hold a different view I felt I should “come clean” (although I realise
THINKING MAKES IT SO Part 2
Dear Friend, This week I am sharing a further message from Lynne McTaggart regarding the concept of “healing by intention”. This relates to her own experience with her own family….and I add a short experience of my own…. “………my husband Bryan’s 79-year-old mother, Edie, was diagnosed with end-stage breast cancer a few years ago. Her
THINKING MAKES IT SO
Dear Friend, This week I am sharing an email from Lynne McTaggart regarding the concept of “healing by intention”. She speaks so eloquently on the topic and her words are so helpful and valuable to those seeking healing of any kind for themselves, their friends, relatives or clients. New Harvard research about the placebo effect
The Other Les Dyer…….
No-one is ever just one thing. A mother or father. A taxi driver. A doctor. A shop-keeper. A consultant. A mechanic. An electrician. A Hairdresser. A Fashion designer. A carpenter. A herbalist. Instead, we’re multiple persona in one body. So whilst most of you probably see me as Trudi’s partner or a self-empowerment columnist, self-realisation
WOULD YOU LIKE TO EXPERIENCE A MIRACLE TODAY?
Dear Friend, This week I’d like to share with you the most amazing news…..Miracles abound!! So…..would you like to see one today? No gimmicks. No tricks. And at no charge? I’m sure most people are desperate for a miracle. Sadly, most people will tell you they’ve never witnessed a miracle. And they’ll assure you that
A PRAYER OF HUMILITY
Dear Friend, Some people have written to tell me they’ve either “stopped praying” or “think prayer is childish”….. I totally understand. But I simply suggest that instead of simply discarding prayer or praying childishly to a kind of “Father Xmas” or “King of the Goodies” it’s far more powerful to simply RELATE – intimately and
A PRAYER OF COMMITMENT
Dear Friend, This week I’d like to share with you my most popular and (for me) my most life-changing prayer….. Dearest God, Founder of the infinite universe, Spirit of the living Earth, And Creator of the livingness deep within my soul, I send you boundless Love! Your kingdom was – and is – and always
KEEPING IT SIMPLE
Dear Friends, My recent Messages regarding Love emphasise the truth of our Being. But in a world of chaos and confusion how do we realistically retain our own inner calm and peace long enough to BE that love? For me, the answer came in one of my earliest conversations with the Divine: I was asked
ANOTHER IMPORTANT MESSAGE
Dear Friends, The two Messages contained in my previous article emphasis that we already contain within ourselves – often deeply hidden – everything we are and need to be. We simply need to reveal our “True Being” to ourselves: no-one can do it for us. Indeed, whilst others may easily see our “true worth” it’s
THE MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL MY MESSAGES
Dear Friends, In 1991 (35 years ago) I channelled the first of many hundreds of messages from a spiritual source I came to know as ‘Mordechai’. This first message said: ‘There is nothing to do, Nowhere to go, Nothing to become Except your own True Self And this you but reveal unto yourself For you
THE TALE OF THE THREE ALIENS
Once upon a time on a planet zeeons away from idyllic Earth three alien brothers found themselves at odds with one another. They were named Whinge, Cringe and Binge. Born triplets, as small children they had seemed to get on well but as they aged their differences became very apparent…… The first-born, Whinge, loudly and
THE TALE OF NINE WINDS
Once upon a time (not very long ago) there were just two winds. One was called Morris, the other was called Boris. Both of them thought they were the mightiest winds the world had ever known. And, in a way, they were. They both tried to control the sky and everything under it. They huffed
The Tale Of the Two Raindrops
https://youtu.be/0VLhoEoV8_o (Well worth watching!) Once upon a time there were two raindrops. One was called Ernie, the other Fred. They floated around the world looking down at all its wonders in a kind of space-ship called a cloud….. Ernie would lean over the edge and watch in amazement and excitement as the world passed beneath
THE CIRCLE OF LIFE
Many wonder how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids……well, they did it using complex geometric calculations…algebra and trigonometry, quadratic equations and numerical calculations worthy of an AI machine…… That’s because they were a highly advanced society, rather like ours in some ways….. This is one of their manuscripts, now in the British Museum after 3500
The Pagan in All Of Us
To watch go to Ctrl+Click :https://youtu.be/CLzozhOrT3M Some of you are Christians, some Buddhists or Hindus, a few are Sikhs and a fair number follow Native Indian practices. A smattering probably describe themselves as “spiritual’. So who is on the winning team and who is barracking for the losers? And the answer is ‘everyone’ and ‘no-one’.
THE EVIL IN THE WORLD
Dear Friends, A quick reminder that I’m now offering two ways to access my Messages. The first – as before – is the printed word (included below). The second is as a short video (today’s runs 4minutes). To access the video just click the link below and you’ll see my smiling face beaming at you.
Homelessness – Please help if you can
Dear Friends, I’m sure we’ve all walked past people on the street who are homeless – and most of us have probably tried to avoid eye contact with a person who was maybe busking or otherwise seeking money purely for food. More and more people seem to be falling through the gaping holes in our
Be Extraordinary
This Week………. BE EXTRAORDINARY!! Anthony Robbins once said: “Why live an ordinary life when you can live an extraordinary one?”. I guess that makes sense to most people. But I feel most people miss the truth of the suggestion and instead think it means being outrageously successful in whatever work they undertake or unbelievably abundant
CHOOSING PEACE OVER DEPRESSION OR ANXIETY
Dear Friends, Like me, I’m sure you love the teachings of Jesus, Buddha, Krishna and many of the more modern spiritual teachers. Lao-Tse (which means ‘The Old One’) often gets his wisdom relegated to gift plates and mugs. His real name was Li-Er and he lived around 2600 hundred years ago in China’s Henan Province.
