  • Beautiful Bees with Karmit Even-Zur

    Beautiful Bees with Karmit Even-Zur
    Nov 12 2025
    In an inspiring episode, Clive talks to storyteller, geomancer and longtime beekeeper and bee lover Kamit Even-Zur about what honeybees may teach us about oneness and heart-led living. Karmit explains the remarkable decision making, co-operation and 'we-consciousness' shared by this extraordinary animal, with each hive acting as though one creature or superorganism in its intricate work of mutual protection, nurturing, feeding and survival. We look at what their collective working may teach us about cooperation, heart-centred communication, and selfless care. We also consider the usual conflict between the natural lives of bees and commercial beekeeping practices, and reflect upon the spiritual and practical lessons bees offer us human beings, inviting us to a deeper connection within our homes and communities and integration of some profound spiritual wisdom into our lives.

  • Aftermath in Alaska: Typhoon Halong's Lasting Devastation

    Aftermath in Alaska: Typhoon Halong's Lasting Devastation
    Nov 6 2025
    Today, we examine the unprecedented destruction brought last month by Typhoon Halong to Alaska's Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, reflecting on the storm's aftermath in the weeks since it made landfall. We highlight the massive crisis the displaced Indigenous communities are facing, which may prove to be truly an existential one. As always, we look at how we might empathise with those needing our prayers and intentions, and suggest where these may be specifically focused. Prayers and intentions start at 22 minutes 37 seconds. Suggested Intention Focus for this week This week, as we reflect on the major devastation brought about by the recent flooding in Alaska, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that those who have lost all or most of their homes, possessions, and livelihoods as a result of Typhoon Halong will be held in light, guided to know how to move forward and opened to sources of help available to them. Please join us in holding this.
