Goodwood (Book 2 of the Riverland Series) is now Available!

My young co-author and I are happy to let you know that the next book in our children’s fiction series, Goodwood (Book 2 of the Riverland Series), has been published!

The Riverland Series is for 6 to 9-year-olds and their young-at-heart old folk. It is based on things that happened in our family over two generations. We would love to share Nannie’s Nest, Moon Hill, the Rock King, the Dividing Lines, Goodwood and, of course, Riverland with you and your family.

  1. Riverland (Book 1 of the Riverland Series): “I wasn’t the first one in my family to visit Riverland. The first one was Uncle Tim. He was five and went there because of his dog. Many years later, I also went when I was five because of my dog. Since then, a lot has happened in Nannie’s Nest.”
  2. Goodwood (Book 2 of the Riverland Series): “I bang my magic staff on the ground and say: I am strong, I have all the help I need, I am safe, I can deal with problems, I am loved, I get bright ideas, I make the world a better place, I am happy, I glow with moonbeam light.

“I gave Nannie ideas for this series and told her what I liked and didn’t like. Also, as you can see from the pictures, we did the things in the story. Nannie said that the most helpful thing I did was to be myself. It’s hard when you try to be someone that you aren’t. But being yourself is the easiest thing in the world because you are already it!”

Practice is the Path

Not only is most of humanity not awake nor aware, but they do not even realise it is possible. However, our greatest gift as humans is that we can be conscious and live life with awareness. We have a choice, and what a blessing that is to our life. Consciousness is the path to alleviating every problem. When issues come our way, we will know how to receive the right ideas for dealing with those problems most effectively. Suffering will be hugely reduced until it is, one day, eliminated. Practise seeing yourself as being awake in all the various situations of your life. Practice is the path to eventual mastery.

Can You Love Too Much?

True generosity does not want something in return, so it does not get frustrated and tired. True love does not want something in return, so it does not become hurt and withdraw its love. It does not evaluate the scales of what has been given and taken and decide that not enough is coming back. It is inexhaustible. Every time you get into the sphere of genuine love, it is a reward, not a drain. First and foremost, love blesses the person who is in the loving consciousness.

Don’t Give Your Sleep Away

We must outgrow the tendency to look at sleep as a reprieve from the day’s problems, a welcome lapse into unconsciousness. Our body needs the physical rest of sleep, but our consciousness does not. It never sleeps. It works all through the night on something or other. That “something” will determine how we wake up and many other things as well. If you go to sleep unconsciously, it will be the perfect breeding ground for everything negative to percolate, manifest, and grow. The state in which you enter sleep will be magnified during the night.

Tonight, before you drift 
into slow theta brainwaves, 
commit your sleep to positive purposes 
and ask the higher powers to 
guide, protect, and heal you.




Love Matters is Now Available!

Love Matters is divided into Physical Matters (the body and its environment), People Matters (whole, holy relationships), and Mystic Matters (healing and spiritual happiness). In the broadest sense, what isn’t spiritual? Everything in life is spiritual because everything impacts our state of being and our effect on others. The health of our body, emotions, mind, and spirit depends on our understanding life as it is energetically designed to be. If you fight life’s essential nature, you are fighting yourself. You will lose. We want to win, for everyone’s sake.

The Love of Devotion audiobook is now available!

The Love of Devotion AUDIOBOOK is now available.

The Love of Devotion is the result of several decades of spiritual work. It began the day I first opened the metaphysical door and stepped into a world only minimally understood at the time but strongly desired. Metaphysics is concerned with the ultimate, primary, inner aspects of existence. It does not see life in material terms but sees life in terms of thought and strongly emphasises healing.

Available as audiobook on Audible, Amazon and most other audio sites.

Uplifting and empowering! Very well written and impressively covers a broad range of subjects in a succinct and concise way. Reading this book is like engaging in a prayer itself. (Review)

Nanima Series

If you haven’t started the Nanima Series yet, you may like to! Here are a few reviews:

  1. I gobbled up Nanima. It’s so comforting to have your presence through these books. I very much relate to the narrator, so curiously and wisely witnessing this world. 
  2. A spiritual experience. An unusual fiction. Goddard’s book is a great depiction without being stereotypical.
  3. Spiritual in the best way.
  4. A story with something special.
  5. Well written and thought-provoking. 

Available as single books, combined volumes, and audiobooks from most online outlets. The Nanima Series is a unique story journalling the inner evolution of a spiritual seeker within the context of her relationships and life. It is set in the equally unique environment of rural Australia.

Sonder (Book 3 of Nanima Series): Everyone Has a Story

When the first month of winter is as cold as Black Forest, the long stretch ahead can seem rather daunting. The outside section of Sonder was empty, although inside was busy and buzzing as usual. The other cafes in town did alright, enough to get by, with the bonus of freedom. They would shut for all sorts of reasons—fire weather, winter break, baby born, spouse sick, no staff, mental health, changed our minds. Sonder, however, was different.

Writing—Creating a Vision

As we evolve, our thoughts hold more power to create what we envision. Practise holding your intentions clearly in your mind and feel that you consistently add energy to their springing into life. In this way, you can create many things that seem impractical or impossible. Ensure your creations benefit everyone involved, or you will pay a bitter price. No one must suffer from what you create. People suffer relentlessly from what they have made in their minds, but we must not contribute to that. If we intend to bless, and only bless, our creations get the entire force of the universe behind them.
