The festival not only involved athletic contests but included musical competitions and drama. Begin your week by participating in the Pythian Games. The games are a Soul Food Cafe weekly challenge that help you clock up the writing miles. The Pythian Games site provides space for participants to undertake a challenge and, in so doing, complete their training for the games. Kick up your heels, have a break from the serious head stuff and rest and relax with a fun shape shifter. One moment she is an  Enchanteur who takes people on transformational journey's  and the next she is the Raven. Sometimes she is the Abbess of the Lemurian Abbey but then, on a whim, she changes in a telephone booth and becomes Captain Ebony Wilder.  It is Captain Wilder who stands at the helm of the Calabar, Soul Food's very own pirate ship. How mad would you be not to join us. You can come in your pyjamas, tell corny jokes, bring your imaginary friend and let your hair down. But don't be surprised if you suddenly realise that Raven has played with your mind. arts Wed, 14 May 2008 21:59:14 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/ilpostino In Il Postino, Neruda introduces Mario to his world of poetry. He teaches him how to feel it and how to love it, and Mario, who is a brilliant student, goes even further: first he learns how to use poetry and then he attempts to write his own poems. Some years ago Year Nine students listened to the sound track of Il Postino and listed the words that caught their attention. Then they wrote poetry using those words. The outcome was breathtaking. Students who may never have written poetry wrote inspired words. Neruda's words had come in search and expressed themselves all over again, through them. If I were in a classroom now I would take a step further and have them present readings of their poetry and make slide shows like the one here. arts Fri, 16 May 2008 06:43:22 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/soulfoodcafe Lemuria was purported to be the southern continent that sunk beneath the seas when a cataclysmic event happened millions of years ago.

In the old days the bonnet was only worn on special occasions and it was highly symbolic. Its beauty was of secondary importance for its real value was in its power to protect the wearer. The bonnet had to be earned through brave deeds in battle for the very feathers it contained were significant of the deeds themselves. Some warriors might be able to obtain only two or three honor feathers in their whole lifetime, so difficult were they to earn. The bonnet was also the mark of highest respect because it could never be worn without the consent of the leaders of the tribe. A high honor, for example, was received by the warrior who was the first to touch an enemy fallen in battle, for this meant the warrior was at the very front of fighting. Feathers were notched and decorated to designate an event. Feathers told individual stories such as killing, scalping, capturing an enemy's weapon and shield and whether the deed had been done on horseback or foot. The eagle was considered by the Indian as the greatest and most powerful of all birds and the finest bonnets were made out of its feathers. When about ten honors had been won the warrior then went out to secure the eagle feathers with which to make his bonnet. In some tribes these had to be purchased from an individual given special permission to hunt the bird and a tail of twelve perfect feathers could bring the seller as much as a good horse. Some tribes permitted a warrior to hunt his own eagles. This was a dangerous and time-consuming mission and meant that he had to leave the tribe and travel to the high country where the bird could be found. When the destination had been reached, ceremonies were conducted to appeal to the spirits of the birds to be killed The history and construction of a war bonnet held a lot of oral history for the warriors and their tribe. Someone holding a completed boonnet could tell countless stories. This exercise borrows from this old tradition and guides the writer in their quest to document either their own, or the stories of others. from The Book of American Indians by Ralph H. Raphael. In this lens you will learn to use War Bonnets and other things to make lists that kick start your creativity. arts Sun, 20 Apr 2008 06:30:07 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/soulfoodbooks Come through the doorway in to the quirky world of Heather Blakey, webmaster of the Soul Food Cafe and creator of Lemuria.

He pursued her all over the countryside but just as he was about to overtake her Daphne cried out to Mother Earth who, in the nick of time spirited her away to Crete, where she became known as Pasiphae. Mother Earth left a laurel-tree in her place, and from its leaves Apollo made a wreath to console himself. It is this wreath that is placed on the heads of the victorious. Winners of the great Panhellenic Games received only garlands - wild olive leaves at the Olympics, pine needles at the Ishmian Games at Corinth, laurel at the Pythian Games at Delphi. The Soul Food Cafe proudly presents Laurel Crown awards to community members who came and have given their hearts to Soul Food and all that it represents.

I prepared as best I could, saving money, reading travel guides, got a Dutch-English handbook, packed, brought gifts from America, got on the long plane ride, and finally, we touched down at Schipol Airport half an hour early. There was a mix-up about what gate my friends were to meet me at - so there I was, in a foreign country, not knowing the language, with an atrocious thick Yankee accent, before the days of cell phones, alone, and terrified. I didn't know what to do next. The Dutch strangers were very kind and tried to help, but it was a panicky hour before I found my friends at the right gate, and I could calm down and begin my adventures."

In 1991 the body of a man who lived over 5,000 years ago was found frozen in a high mountain range and with him was a medicine bag. The medicine bag is known in all cultures and through out all of history. They contain objects such as leaves, feathers, stones, herbs such as sweetgrass, sage, cedar, lavender or pinion, and other objects which have been added by the wearer and considered spiritually significant. Medicine bags can be as small as 1 inch by 1 inch or as large as 30 inches in length. They are typically made of leather and you can purchase such a bag to make your own at most metaphysical stores. The reasons to carry a medicine are for guidance, healing and protection. Most medicine bags contain a quartz crystal as one of its objects. Quartz energy resonates with all the energies of the physical body and is considered a remarkable healing stone. It connects you to your spiritual self. Other items you might like in your own medicine bag are items you may have found a special attraction to or resonance with in your life. For example, a special shell you found at the seashore or a feather you found or a piece of pine tree or a juniper berry that holds meaning for you. We often meet up with items that seem to be just waiting for us to pick them up and carry them home and then we don't know what to do with them. This is one place to give them a home close to your heart. The essence of these special items create an energy in your medicine bag and that energy is the force that represents you. So by creating a medicine bag and wearing it close to your heart you are connecting with your spiritual self, the authentic you and always remembering who you are." arts Sun, 27 Apr 2008 07:33:41 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/lenchanteur L'Enchanteur is Heather Blakey's alter ego and just between you and me she sometimes represents herself as the Amazon Queen and Baba Yaga.

The language of loss and grief was confounded too. The Temple of Solace is a place where people who have been scattered and made to feel isolated can be united by empathy. Living with my husband's advanced cancer for many years proved challenging. Advanced cancer is a term to describe a metastatic cancer and is a cancer which is unlikely to be cured. One of the painful realities, when cancer will not go away, is that family and friends sometimes withdraw. For years I have converted the stress of 'living with cancer' to creative energy and the Soul Food Cafe is a product of that creative energy. More recently The Temple of Solace was borne out of a deep sense of loss over hurtful abandonment at a time of deep grief. Here within the safety of this Temple people of all nationalities can learn the language of loss and grief, find comfort and solace and learn how to support others. health Thu, 10 Apr 2008 17:26:27 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/palliativeart After my first session with a grief counsellor, nine months after my husband's death, I searched for a version of Pandora's Box. During this session we had discussed how, when my husband died on January 19 2007, I took my backside off the box where I had carefully stored all my broken bits. I only took it off for a little while but when the lid opened all sorts of horrible things leaped out the box and splattered themselves all over the place. Horrid little sprites, wasp like beasts, spiteful creatures with bull ant stings attacked me and I have been like the walking wounded ever since. I was too slow jamming the lid back on. Things had leaped out that could not be put back in the box. Fortunately, Hope remained and I have found she keeps taking different shapes. She has transmuted and taken the shape of a shiatsu therapist who helped me see I could be whole again. She has looked at me through the eyes of a grief counsellor and found expression through art. Art is far more effective at communicating the pain experience than words ever could be. The pain experience goes beyond the actual occurrence of physical pain and encompasses the entirety of one's life. The pain experience can be both negative and positive.I am going to take all the broken bits, carefully examine them and work with her to see if we can make me whole again. Art has helped me to do this. arts Mon, 28 Apr 2008 19:04:18 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/red-death THE "Red Death" had long devastated the country. No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal--the redness and the horror of blood. There were sharp pains, and sudden dizziness, and then profuse bleeding at the pores, with dissolution. The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim, were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men. And the whole seizure, progress and termination of the disease, were the incidents of half an hour... Use the passage from Edgar Allen Poe's story to write about the coming of Red Death. arts Tue, 29 Apr 2008 00:55:54 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/rookery The beautiful Raven guides my writing. It has become my totem, a symbol to express who I am and how I want to live. I like to believe that like the Raven I am a guide, a messenger, who leads others to find their unique voice. I believe that the Raven carries the messages of my heart out into cyber space. Her blackness represents the notion of beginning, just as the symbols of the maternal night and primeval darkness represent beginning. For me the Raven represents creative power and spiritual strength. When I sat by my husbands bedside at the Epworth hospital here in Melbourne, after he had been operated on for bowel cancer, I noted the black crow that came to sit on the spire outside our window. She bought with her the collective energy of my patrons, people from all around the world who had stopped to think of us and pray for our well-being. A solitary figure, the crow reminded me to look for strength from within, that out of darkness comes light and fresh beginning. Her iridescence spoke of magic and awakening. Today I give thanks to that Raven and formally acknowledge her as my guide arts Sat, 09 Feb 2008 02:27:01 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/creativitycatalogue Perhaps one of the highlights of coming to Lemuria is the opportunity to travel with a donkey. Upon arrival, le Enchanteur gives travellers a bag filled with special talismans, and tells them of the donkey compound where travellers meet the Secretary of the Donkey Union, and the donkey who is destined to share their journey. Travellers always recognise the donkey who is to guide them. Guides such as Geraldine, Regina, and Belenus, have trod the roads and faithfully advised their human companions as they tread unchartered regions. When you come to Lemuria, receive you bag and meet your inner donkey you begin a journey within that will change you for ever.

Soul Food now has artists, writers, journalists, photographers, scientists, archaelogists, storytellers, illustrators, musicians living in residence. The Soul Food Cafe has long ceased to be a static webside and provides very real mechanisms for working collaboratively in a creative, online environment. In the late 1880’s Heather Blakey’s great Grandfather, George Chale Watson, wrote a book entitled the Mountain Tops of Lemuria to record his journey on a Black-birding ship through the Polynesian Islands. It was believed that these islands were the old mountain tops of Lemuria, the lost southern continent. The Lemurian writing sanctuary was born after Heather Blakey located, at the Queensland University, the only copy of her great grandfather’s book. The University Librarian permitted her to make a copy of it and you will find Watson’s fascinating account of his journey, together with other ancestral material, on the site. Original adventurers found Heather’s Lemuria by passing through a very special portal and all the stimuli was housed here. At this time we used Bravenet Forums as a means for people to participate and publish their work and Heather Blakey transferred some of that material on to the site. When the Blogger Revolution came Heather created a virtual monastery at Soul Food using this exciting new self publishing tool. The Lemurian Abbey is a divine sanctuary across the lake from the City of Ladies. This lake is not unlike Lake Como in Northern Italy and is home to votaries of the Soul Food Way. When she first talked about the Lemurian Abbey, Heather talked about how she had envisioned it as a place full of fine art and craft, a virtual monastery that would be filled with tiny, spartan cells where votaries of the muse could come, retreat behind walls and observe time differently. She believed that in this Monastery, time would not be measured with clocks and believed that monastic writers would be free to wander through the cloisters and walled gardens in a meditative state, capturing metaphors in their writing nets. The Lemurian Abbey quickly became a wonderful sanctuary for people from all over the world, people eager to practice the Soul Food Way and make writing and art a daily practice. Today The Lemurian Abbey is a divine sanctuary across the lake from the City of Ladies. This lake is not unlike Lake Como in Northern Italy and is home to votaries of the Soul Food Way. The Abbess (Heather Blakey's alter ego) welcomes all comers and encourages residents to give bricks to ensure the growth of this virtual sanctuary by shopping here.  arts Tue, 04 Mar 2008 01:22:55 -0600 http://www.squidoo.com/cityofladies Christine de Pizan set out to disprove masculine myths and within the context of her time her thought was revolutionary.
