Welcome
This website provides a practical path to find inner peace and freedom in life without the need for religion, a spiritual guru or endless therapy. If you feel you are always looking for someone to give you the answers, I will show you a way to find your own answers, and stop the search.
You can find your own answers
No-one has all the answers and no-one has your answers, even if we’re all asking the same sorts of questions –
How can I be happy? How can I stay healthy or regain my health? How do I find love? How do I be a good parent? How can I be good when it’s fun to be bad? Why am I so envious of others? How can I get rich? How do I love myself when I don’t like myself? How do I just be myself when I don’t know who I am? How do I succeed? Why do I fail so often? How can I stop being so angry? What do I do with my life – what’s my purpose? Is there a God? What happens when I die? How can I stop being so scared of dying? Where do I go from here?
Sometimes, for a while, we think we have found an answer, like when in the throes of a new love, or when our careers are exciting and fulfilling. However, when that love falters, or our career ends or grows stale, we realise that love or career was only distracting us from our search for answers.
This website provides what you need to answer these questions for yourself, and at the right time for you. The guidance here is for anyone, though it won’t be right for everyone, at all times.
Synchronicity, chance, and coincidence can often lead to growth and are key inspirations for this website. Any authors I recommend often fell into my lap at the right time for me to appreciate and apply their knowledge. Find your own answers but take a shortcut by studying the work of others.
Finding your own way in life, and fully realising that only you have the answers you need, and that there is no one true way to live, is the secret of life, and the reason this website is named Find Your Gorse.
Finding those Answers...
Understanding yourself, and life, means moving beyond limited views of success or failure in life. In this website you will learn there is nothing to fear from death, because there is no real death. You will also learn a new way to view reality that leads to living with a feeling of inner peace and mental freedom in the world.
The website has three main sections:
The Roadmap – Seven Stages To Freedom. This freedom is inner peace and mental freedom, irrespective of what life has, or will, or is throwing at you, or where you feel you are on life’s journey right now. The Roadmap isn’t about solving all your life’s problems for you, or about giving you the answers to whatever struggles you have, it is about showing you how to open yourself to the bigger answer, the one that moves you beyond all problems. The answer that, paradoxically, gives you the ability to find your own answers to your everyday struggles.
Guides – 10 Books To Help You Live Free. This section is a review of each of ten books that can benefit you, and inform you, as you move along the stages of The Roadmap. No single book will provide an answer to all your problems, but you will find in each a key to the puzzle of life. Though it isn’t possible to convey in words the sense of freedom you will find in Stage Seven of The Roadmap, most of us need a mountain of words to get there. And, for most of us, getting out of personal ruts must come first, and the majority of the Guides are about helping you make that escape.
Articles – This section covers everything else The articles are collected loosely into three categories:
Truth – Philosophy, religion, science, mysticism, metaphysics
Living – Practical ways to help when you encounter life’s inevitable challenges.
Health – How to keep yourself healthy, and why this is ultimately a reflection of what you believe, and how you live in the world.
The articles begin with a Glossary of terms used in this website and five articles I recommend you read as you travel along The Roadmap. These five are – Get Into A Growth Mindset + Meditation – 3 Ways + Infinite Existence + Mind Body Healing + ALIIGNED.
