		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just completed the 12 week strength training program that I wrote about in a previous blog.
What have I gained?
Well, my health and well-being have dramatically improved. For the last few winters (admittedly in draughty houses in two freakishly cold English winters) I&#8217;ve had a long succession of bad colds: last year I counted four. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s another of my heroes: Tami Simon.
I&#8217;ve had the feeling of being in the spiritual wilderness much of my life. At some point in my late teens, probably after reading too many Krishnamurti books, I got it into my head that true spirituality was nigh on impossible to achieve.

		<description><![CDATA[I was really happy with this performance. About forty people squeezed into the basement at Cafe Gaia in Aarhus, Denmark to hear this story. There are a lot of comic touches; at times I&#8217;m almost in the realms of stand up comedy, which I&#8217;m very pleased about. And there&#8217;s a lot of depth to it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve surprised quite a few people recently by embarking on a strength training program.
About four years ago I was given Ken Wilber&#8217;s excellent ten CD set Kosmic Konsciousness. In amongst all kinds of learned and insightful material on a wide range of spiritual topics was something that I wasn&#8217;t expecting. Wilber started citing research showing [...]]]></description>

I guess most storytellers learn to use unpredictable intrusions from their environment to their stories&#8217; [...]]]></description>
