All in all, world music is considered just plain music to the vast majority of people in the world. Music is universal, and to discover the music …

Hello there and welcome to Joyism. Joyism is a simple idea really. It’s all about spreading joy through simple gestures and good deeds focused on the happiness and benefit of others rather than the self. And it’s amazing to do something positive for someone else.

Zen Buddhist monks used to do secr …

Beer - certainly! Moaning about the system - absolutely! But also getting out the house so y …

Ever wondered whether art, movies and theatre reflect back to us the symbolic truth of our human nature? In what way can these narratives teach us about the universal forces in our psyche? What can we learn from the heroes and heroines, dragons and villains, witches and magicians-scientists in our modern myths? Where are we as individuals subject to the same "quest or struggle" as the protagonist? When are we collectively unconsciously projecting our shadow onto the villain in modern myths? How …
