Seven years ago I went sungazing every day in London (with sebcam@sebcam) where I looked directly at the sun (for periods of up to 44mins) visualising a beautiful family and the ability to live freely in a land I felt good about calling my home. By the way, I was born in London and had tried on many occasions to save enough money to leave but my habits were closer to that of a materialistic, ego-driven drug addict than the thriving energy surfer I am now.

So today my heart is warmed to its core by the manifestation of this feeling because here I am in the South of France living that dream, doing exactly what I love day after day, despite the current climate of fear, uncertainty & doubt (FUD).

Quick side note here: Sungazing is unquestionably the key to unlocking the unfathomable capabilities of the human mind but it should be done with caution at first, until the basics are understood. I made a film about it here if you are interested to open your Third Eye, also known as the Pineal Gland.

The shots in this post are from a recent afternoon on our allotment:

Esteban & Luna at their little dining table, enjoying a vegan snack.

We have prepared a larger bed at the end of our plot for courgettes, cucumbers & broccoli, which require more space per plant.

We now have a convenient watering system too. This water bin is filled each day from the pressure of the fast flowing canal.

Here you can see our grape vine and a few aloe vera plants we dug in next to it.

I thought the vine was dead until last week, when suddenly this happened!

It gives me such a huge amount of pleasure to closely inspect these beds, down on my knees where I can better connect with them. This is always the first thing I do upon arriving here each day.

The radishes have been harvested since I took this photo and I realise now that I should have been sowing a new line every two weeks. Yes, this is my first year doing this and there are no mistakes. Only learning experiences.

In the background here you can see one of our allotment neighbours (politely keeping her social distance) who is not so much interested in growing food but in creating a playground of sorts for her son, who just happens to be Esteban's best friend from school.

His name is Axel and Luna is totally in love with him! It's so cute.

Here you can see Luna waiting in his sandpit, wondering where he has gone.

Our neighbours have built an amazing family area on their allotment.

Figs are growing to one side of their little wooden home.

And berries in front of it.

It is pretty hard to avoid growing food around here if I'm going to be honest.

The climate & environment is the perfect mix between northern & southern hemisphere. Without which we would not be able to grow bananas in our courtyard!

Law of Attraction

I want to leave you with a quick story which demonstrates how LOA is still working in my life now. Only faster.

We ordered around €500 worth of seeds before the virus drama kicked in and our purple potatoes never arrived. I noted this and let it go in my usual manner, by giving thanks for what I have.

The first vegetables I ever grew (in my garden at boarding school) were potatoes, so I instantly recognised these little plants when they appeared last week, in the PERFECT spot, within a bed in which we had not yet planted anything.

I dug one up and guess what colour they were?

Love & Light to you all x
