EffortlessAbundance.com is a community of writers contributing content to help you thrive.
Effortless Abundance is an expression of the best way to live. It is life lived without struggle, working with the natural grain of the situation you are in to experience the best results. It is about accepting life on its own terms, giving up struggle and accepting that you have less control than you might imagine. To let go is to reframe our thinking, to release suffering and to experience life as it is, without judgement or expectation. It is about dealing with difficult and challenging situations skillfully and productively, and experiencing the kind of life you truly desire.
The ideas on this site explore what the philosopher Alan Watts called the Watercourse Way, the wisdom embodied in the Tao Te Ching.
The articles contain discussions and practical advice on experiencing greater happiness, wealth and health, developing good relationships and communication with others, and finding peace, poise and confidence.
All the articles reflect the view that life has no transcendent meaning or purpose, any more than a dance or a symphony has a purpose, except for the sheer joy of the experience, and that abundance is a natural and normal condition.
Above all, the site exists to help you thrive, whatever ‘thriving’ means to you.
Many years ago, I came across Anthony de Mello’s wonderful book, Awareness. I have often turned to this book for inspiration and guidance. I would go as far as to say that this book was life changing.
But one story stays always in my mind. It is a wonderful parable. Indeed, it is the essence of all that I believe.
A man found an eagle’s egg and put it in a nest of a barnyard hen. The eaglet hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life the eagle did what the barnyard chicks did, thinking he was a barnyard chicken. He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he would thrash his wings and fly a few feet into the air.
Years passed and the eagle grew very old. One day he saw a magnificent bird above him in the cloudless sky. It glided in graceful majesty among the powerful wind currents, with scarcely a beat on his strong golden wings. The old eagle looked up in awe. “Who’s that?” he asked. “That’s the eagle, the king of the birds,” said his neighbour. “He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth – we’re chickens.” So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that’s what he thought he was.

"Getting the Life You Want is a work of simplicity and power, the result of keen observation about what works and what doesn’t. It is, above all, a practical book, a guide to a gentler, happier and more abundant life. Mark calls this ancient, natural approach ‘sailing with the wind’ or ‘going with the flow,’ and sets out a programme which can transform your life, if you will let it."

The pace of modern life can often cause us to be stressed, unhappy and unhealthy. The ancient practice of meditation continues to be widely used by people from all walks of life as a way of finding inner peace and connecting with a part of ourselves which is so often neglected and hidden in the modern world.
Many forms of meditation are practiced, but they all involve the same basic elements of quieting the mind and becoming focused, observant and detached from outside stimuli.
Few people can spend hours meditating, and it can be hard to find the time and the discipline to meditate regularly. The beautiful guided meditations in the Meditation Kit are designed to lead you through the process and keep you focused on the object of your meditation.
Coaching is about helping you to get ‘unstuck’ when you seem to hit a wall in your life. A coach does not judge you or criticize you but supports you in your learning and celebrates your achievements with you. So much more can be achieved when two people work together than can be achieved alone. Most coaches charge at least $300 per hour for their time and, after a few sessions, you are left to apply what you have learned on your own (unless you have enormous financial resources and can keep paying the coach!)
I am offering unlimited email coaching for just $200 per month.
You get to send an unlimited number of emails to me – I will generally respond within 24 hours with observations, things to try and new perspectives. I will often give you something to do over the coming days!
You can cancel at any time. Why not try a month of coaching and take your life to the next level?
