Sonia Choquette and her daughter joining in the dancing! Sonia had to stay in her seat to dance - she had knee surgery in January and is still on crutches, but was determined to still come out and spend the weekend with us.
I had such a fantastic weekend, that I didn't take my camera out of my bag until the last 15 minutes - what a blast.
Sharing a moment with Michelle on the right and Caroline on the left - two beautiful souls. Thanks girls for a great weekend.
And finally, the view on Sunday morning from our hotel room - a hot air balloon drifting peacefully above the world below - observing and enjoying the world, instead of indulging in the chaos of Ego.

Moved by the Spirit
This weekend was OUTSTANDING, AMAZING, WONDERFUL and IN 'SPIRIT' ATIONAL!!!!
Yes I am shouting it from the treetops.
On my way home I had the chance to share Spirit and would like to share it all with you now.
Sunday morning I had set myself a goal to touch the lives of 5 people. It was a small but achievable goal. First I met a lovely man in a pink shirt in the hotel elevator, we shared a chat and a laugh and I left lightened by his Spirit. The receptionist was harrassed and busy, but a moment of connection - a compliment about her beautiful green nail polish and a laugh and her Spirit breathed.
The day was filled with Angels: Sonia taught us, inspired us and shared her story with us; but it was the moment that her beautiful daughter Sonia (confusing I know) stood up and talked to us about growing up 'different' that connected with me. 'Young Sonia' talked about being different, being weird and how wonderful it is. I spoke to her afterward and her hug and warmth was a delight. Thank you both Sonias.
I had treated myself to the 'Trust your Vibes' book on Saturday, which Sonia signed for me and on Sunday I bought 'The Answer is Simple' - I was going to get it signed as well, but something told me it wasn't necessary.
Arriving at the airport I was early and managed with the help of another Angel at Qantas to get on the 7pm flight instead of the 8pm flight. I went to the Qantas lounge and had a refreshing soft drink and a little read. There was a beautiful woman, clearing dishes, she came to clear mine and we chatted - what a beautiful Spirit - her smile lit up her face. My simple thank you to her, obviously meant something as we connected and I sat back fulfilled.
Then it happened I walked onto the plane and connected with the air attendents - all three, but especially Jane. I told them all about my weekend; I glowed and talked and shared Sonia's message of Spirit with them. Jane asked about the book I was reading - it was 'The Answer is Simple' - tears filled her eyes and she said - now I know why I am on this flight I was meant to meet you. This is what I need, please won't you give me her details. I wrote Sonia's name and the list of her books on a piece of paper and handed it to her. She then went to work.
I sat reading and then Spirit spoke - "You don't need this book, you are only borrowing it, it belongs to Jane."
I took out my pen and I wrote in the front cover "Dear Jane, Thank you for allowing me to share my Spirit with you. Love Beverly"
As the flight ended I handed it to her, as expected her Ego took over - "I can't take it"
I opened the front cover and said "You have to, it has your name in it."
She filled with tears and Spirit, Ego disappeared and she said "I wouldn't have taken it if you hadn't written in it" and I said: "I know!"
Leaving the plane Jane was at the disembarkation gate: She reached for me and gave me a HUG.
My life yesterday was filled with gifts and the greatest gift was SPIRIT.
Thank you.

The Answer is Simple
I am doing Sonia Choquette's online course "The Answer is Simple" - it is a great course that looks at the simple things in life to reconnect you to your Spirit. I am joining a friend to do the course and today I listened to the first lesson and practice - her message - BREATHE!
I realised that I have been holding mine for a while - when I get stressed, worried, angry, anxious, concerned or all those sort of things; the first thing I do is hold my breath, or breathe more shallowly. So I sat with my headphones in, listening to her and breathed - what JOY!
I could feel the stress flowing freely away. Then I took a hot shower, lit a couple of candles, put a relaxation playlist on my Ipod and spent the evening writing.
It is now 9.23pm and time for me to sleep - I think I will tonight as I am feeling most relaxed.
So if you are feeling stressed or upset - Remember to Breathe, slowly, deeply and fill your soul with Spirit.
