Its only in the last few years that things have really begun to make sense to me and I feel ready to write about it in the public domain.Why the name “isthisforreal”?  Well, that tends to be the biggest question in people’s heads whenever I talk about what I have experienced and learnt.  I don’t blame them, some of it is pretty out there and requires cranking open the grey box we encase our minds in.But if you can forget what you know and be open to new possibilities, a whole new world  opens up where you can truly be yourself and enjoy the journey that is this life.My childhood was about absorbing everything around me (good and bad) and thereby forming by beliefs (good and bad), that would later dictate the way I lived my life.  A mediocre version of my life.My 20’s were about making sense of everything I had learnt in childhood, deciding it wasn’t for me, and trying to unlearn all the crap I had picked up along the way.My 30’s is about re-learning about the world around us, discovering that it is actually pretty marvellous, and living a vastly improved version of my life every day.This is my wish for you, and if only one person reads this blog,  and sees a positive change in their life, then my work is done.
