Turning The Keys To Unwind Time. by Ildiko Scurr DORSET COUNTY People often say a very interesting thing about time. They say it speeds up as you get older. I am going to explore why it appears that way and reveal to you how you can reverse that perception and gain access to limitless time instead. We feel bound by time. We record every single second. Our computers have clocks and so do our mobiles. Segmenting time. We worry about running out of time and getting things done in time. If you run a business and or have a family, it can feel like you never have enough hours in the day. Time is actually a human concept created in our minds in order to make sense of our reality in the 3rd dimension. It doesn’t really exist the way we think! Past…present…future are all happening at the same time, Quantum Physics has given enough evidence to show this is true. If you want to get a flavour of how questionable time is, think about having a video conversation with someone across the world. It is midnight and dark behind them and sunny and just after lunch for you…two times on your screen…who’s time is real? So if time doesn’t really exist, you can decide how you want to perceive it. Why are we slaves to time? Research done at Stanford University revealed a very important fact.90% of the thoughts you have today, will be the same as those you had yesterday and will have tomorrow. So if you thought you were running out of time yesterday, you are likely to be thinking it now as you read my article and you will think it tomorrow. We know that our beliefs create our reality. Time is a big part of our reality and so you will find the 1st key for turning clock time into limitless time, in your mind. In order to step off the clock face, first you need to change your beliefs. Consciously replace your thoughts. When you think ‘I am running out of time’ stop that thought, use the word ‘cancel’ and consciously think instead ‘I have all the time I need’ The more you do this, the easier it will get. Watch how your reality starts to alter! The 2nd key concerns how present you are within each moment. If you rush about in your life from one deadline to another, you are mostly thinking about the past or focusing on the future. How often are you fully awake to the experience of the present moment? Most people hardly ever are. The older you get, the more past you have for your consciousness to dwell in. When you focus on just the past and the future, it seems as if time is speeding up, but it is just an illusion. Train yourself to focus in the Now. Try spending a few minutes every day saying ‘this moment’ with every heartbeat. This will ground your consciousness and time will expand for you. And if you want to speed up achieving your goals…there is a 3rd key…Contact me and find out how I can unlock endless time for you LifeGrid® UK Business Manager - Dorset County liferetuning.com AUGUST 2017 Channel facebook.com/lifegriddorset LifeGrid Magazine | LifeGrid.com.au
MUNDO by Ildiko Scurr The historic town of Christchurch is a beautiful setting, boasting a Norman priory dating from 1094 AD, a ruined castle from the same period and two rivers; the Avon and the Stour. This is where a truly special shop can be found that has only been open for 5 months. Mundo (meaning World in Spanish) is owned by Pauline Iveson and Mike Wood, a married couple who have a passion for travel and for being fair to people and the planet. Mike tells me, ‘We did an environmental studies degree whilst travelling and we got into Fairtrade. Fairtrade is an organisation which promotes fairer trading conditions for disadvantaged producers in developing countries and ensures a fair price is paid for their products as well as a premium for them to invest in their businesses and communities in order to achieve sustainable livelihoods.’ Pauline continues, ‘Recognising that there are as many issues with poverty and inequality at home as abroad, when we raise money for Fairtrade we split it and give some to local charities such as Christchurch Food Bank ( a local organisation which puts together food parcels for those who are struggling financially) There have been years and years of exploitation by richer countries and we both feel that we would like to help redress that.’ Pauline worked with the local Fairtrade Campaign Committee to attain Fairtrade status for Christchurch back in 2014 and the campaign is ongoing today with community events and liaising with schools and businesses locally. Mundo is certainly making a bold statement in the community with it’s gorgeous colourful wares made mostly from recycled materials. From jewel-coloured lacquered coconut shell bowls from Vietnam to jewellery and clocks made from tiny pencils and frames from recycled bicycle gear chains and keys from India, their shop is packed full of items that just make you go...Oooh wow! Not only mouthwatering items to brighten up your home but they also stock ranges of top healthy food like Booja Booja ice cream, Seeds of Change and Divine chocolate and Grumpy Mule coffee. Gorgeous…sustainable…delicious! Pauline explains, ’We only buy from an umbrella organisation called BAFTS ( British Association of Fair Trade Suppliers) they check all suppliers adhere to the 10 principles of Fairtrade. Fair Trade is us being fair to the people making things and also being fair to the planet so they have the same ethos, they want to be fair too. So they are using recycled products where they can, partly because it is something they can use which is available to them, something they can make money from so they are aware that it is not trashing the planet and recycling is a big part of that. We are one step removed from nature and they are not, they are living it all the time. Our idea of nature is to go to the supermarket. They are more in tune with what is going on the planet and they are more affected by it.’ Local opinion is very positive, ‘A lot of people say it is so nice to have somewhere in our community where we can buy really nice things and is not selling the standard high street fayre.’ One lady got so inspired when she came into Mundo that she got involved and has recently taken over several roles on the committee. ‘Ideally we would love to be able to leave the shop in the capable hands of a manager and travel to do more voluntary work. One of our worries was that if we left the area, it would stop but now we feel confident that it will continue.’ For now, their vision is to focus on the aim of their shop to promote Fairtrade in the wider awareness locally. They have certainly put themselves on the map already. facebook.com/mundofairtradegifts
