Dave Cowan was a master dowser who quickly learned dowsing through Questers but few Questers know about him. Dave learned to dowse from Raymon Grace in May 2002. (In an earlier blog about Raymon Grace I wrote that he taught dowsing in Vernon in 2003. My wife dug through her records and found that the […]
Spring is a time of freshness and the feeling of release. For many people, it is a time of rebirthing their creativity and that feeling of freedom that seems to die when we are socked in by snow (lots of snow!) and cold. I have a friend that is ill with a “yet to be […]
We, at the Canadian Society of Questers, wish each of you the most delightful Christmas. We wish it to be full of laughter, light, amazing food, little actions that become bright memories, and moments of peace and contentment. Have a wonderful day! Walk in peace.
There are many ways of being. We can be, here and now, and that means we are in the present. Or, we can be upset, angry or discouraged. We also can be happy, excited, and focused. We can choose to ‘be’ many things. It is difficult, though, to be what we want to be and […]
When we are children, our physical body and mental body development happen at a pace that is dictated by the internal genetic programming. Someone cannot lean over the child and say, “Grow”, and have the child grow on demand. Growth is a process, whether the growth is to cause the body to grow or to […]
BEING ALONE can be exhausting, can be renewing. Some individuals look into a bleak future of solitude, spreading out slowly before them, or feel the quick, searing pain from the unexpected loss of a loved one. Some seem to naturally lean toward a life alone, separated from others and feeling complete freedom and independence. – […]

Several weeks ago, my mother, who is in a nursing home, had a bad fall. The first question is always, “How did that happen?”. And the second question is, “How could that have been prevented?” And then, you start to figure out what happened and worry the “why and how” over and over in your […]
The greatest goal you can set this year is to make peace with your life, no matter your circumstances. These 10 powerful insights from Eckhart Tolle will get you started. • Don’t seek happiness.

Years ago, a reader asked me why she was seeing a “Fairy Penguin” in her dreams and seeing pictures of them when she looked in magazines. The reader was seeing a Spirit Guide. What I have learned is that when a spirit guide pops up in your life, it is there to help you focus […]
A tribute to Canadians and Canada 86 per cent of Canadians believe they live in the best country in the world. We live a long time: Canadians born today will live an average of two years longer than the global average (close to 82 years in Canada versus 80). Meanwhile, 89% of Canadians reported being […]
Sadness is nothing but the same energy that could have been happiness. When you don’t see that your happiness is flowering, you become sad. Whenever you see somebody happy, you become sad: Why is it not happening to you? It can happen to you! There is no problem in it. You just have to uncondition […]
We Questers were lucky to have Cindi Johnston as one of our speakers at the Spring Conference in Red Deer. Cindi shifted the energy for many of us with her honest discussion of her experiences, and with her mystical meditation. Cindi had a booth in the market area. One of the products that she was […]
Saying good-bye to a home or space is an important part of moving forward. It gives us a sense of completion. When we move from one residence to another, we often get so caught up in the forward thrust of where we are going that we forget to properly say good-bye to the home we […]
Several years ago, I was teaching a beginner’s meditation class, and as part of the workshop, explained the concept of the word/sound “OM” to the participants. Then we did some experiential learning with the sound, both with only me saying the sound, and then with all of us saying the sound. Students felt the vibration […]
