My personal meditation journey began in 2006 when my Mum suggested I go to a spiritual institute that was in a nearby suburb.
I have always been a bit shy socially, but I eventually built up the courage to investigate.
This spiritual school offered many different classes and courses in the spiritual field. I spoke to the receptionist there and took home some brochures on meditation and psychic development.
I later rang and booked to attend a meditation class.
Not long after that, I was sitting in a meditation class run by Debra Bull. I really enjoyed Deb’s guided meditations, and regularly attended her class one night a week.
I recall a powerful vision I had during one of the meditations. It was very vivid and clear.
I saw a giant golden Buddha sitting cross-legged, the size of a large room. It was amazing – and one of the most powerful visions I had ever experienced.
The Buddha didn’t speak; he just sat with a big smile on his face.
Later on, I pondered what the meaning of this vision meant, because I felt it was significant.
For me personally, a Buddha represents ascension and attaining spiritual growth. The color gold represents enlightenment of the heart and mind. This vision was so profound; I wanted to express it on paper. This drawing later became the cover artwork of my first guided meditation CD.
I was really enjoying attending these meditation classes with Deb, and the other attendees would often say I was glowing after the class. It was nice to connect with likeminded people, and share the journey with others.
I later went on to study Psychic Development with Deb, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Around the same time, I had just quit a difficult addiction with smoking, and later recorded my journey on an audio CD.
One evening during a meditation class, I had the idea to create a guided meditation CD. This was around the time I met my music composer Justin Smith on a chat server online. Justin had composed mainly chill out music, but liked the idea of composing some music for a meditation CD.
In 2007 I completed my first guided meditation CD with Justin. I went on to create a new guided meditation CD each year after that.
I really enjoy using my imagination and spiritual insight to take people on a journey of relaxation, self-discovery and healing. To share a spiritual journey with others I feel is quite special.
A few years later I went on to study Mediumship with Helga Carmona at another spiritual center. I really enjoyed connecting to spirit guides and departed loved ones. During this course, my ability to connect to spirit became stronger and easier. I began to connect to Ascended Masters Saint Germaine and Merlin, who helped me with writing my meditations.
Later on I was given the opportunity to teach meditation classes at the spiritual center. I was a bit nervous at first, but became more confident as time went on. The classes were usually intimate, with only a handful of people in attendance.
I found that I could connect to my higher self and channel the class, depending on what the class members needed at the time.
It also served as great material for future meditation CDs. Many of the meditations I channeled in class have now been recorded to CD.
I am grateful to have met Nigel Coates online – with his Explore Meditation website. In the digital age we are in, more and more people are using MP3 players instead of CD players and Hi Fi’s. I’m happy to share my guided meditations with Nigel, to help reach a larger spiritual audience online.
Today I am still passionate about creating guided meditation CDs and MP3s, and hope to create many more in the future.

Brad’s Meditation Packages
This meditation package is designed to assist you to have a closer relationship with your higher-self and your spirit guides.
These meditations will open your channels so it will be easier to communicate with spirit whenever you desire.
Enjoy this journey of greater connection … with your higher-self and spirit guides.
These Guided Meditation MP3 Downloads are designed to assist you to work with your guides – and create a relationship with your higher self (which is your link to the realm of spirit).
When in a state of meditation – our energetic vibration is raised. Our brain resonates and functions with theta brain wave frequencies, which allows us to access both information and healing that we usually can’t access during our day-to-day activities.
But with practice, we become more familiar with this mode of operation, and it becomes much easier to connect with spirit and receive the guidance and healing we need and desire.
These guided meditations are designed to assist you to work with the light – for healing of yourself, your relationships and strengthening your psychic self-defense.
Relationships are an important aspect of our lives and daily interactions… and we all have some relationships that are dysfunctional or not for our highest good.
These meditation downloads are designed to assist you to cut the ties, build your psychic protection and offer clearing and healing of your energy and space.
Crystals are timeless creations of the mineral kingdom. They store and amplify energy and assist with healing the human body, on an emotional, mental, physical and spiritual level.
Crystals assist with connecting us to the realm of spirit, and our higher self, and work to strengthen these connections.
Each crystal is unique and contains certain properties to help balance our chakras and aid in physical healing and wellbeing.
The guided meditations on this album, guide you to work with crystals in different ways to facilitate your own healing, intuition and spiritual growth.
These guided meditation downloads are designed to assist you to relax, unwind and de-stress.
They are great for beginners to meditation, or anyone simply needing to take some time out from their busy schedule.
One of the meditations focuses on teaching you to slow your thoughts and control your mind, while the others assist you with working with the breath to consciously relax your muscles and body.
These guided meditations are designed to assist you with grounding and healing yourself and the world around you.
Grounding is an important practice when delving into the realm of spirit, as it helps to anchor higher energies onto the planet and assists you to feel safe and connected to the earth mother.
The meditations in this package are also designed to assist you with connecting to your higher-self for guidance and healing – and spreading that light out into the world.
Did you know it takes the average person just 7 minutes to fall asleep?
7 MINUTES! Wouldn’t that be wonderful?
But if it takes you a lot longer than that, and you wish you could nod-off easily, and you crave nothing more than a good night’s sleep to restore your sanity … you have probably already tried the obvious suggestions;
- Avoid caffeine late in the day
- Ensure regular exercise is part of your week
- Get into a regular bedtime routine
- Drink a warm cup of milk before bed
But what if you’ve tried them all and they haven’t worked?
As a human on this planet we can experience a range of emotion from love to fear and everything in between.
Fear can prevent us from taking risks in life and also slow our spiritual growth. It can also be a precursor to spiritual growth by motivating us to face our fears and take action.
Often we have pain and trauma in our heart that needs to be released and healed.
The guided meditations in this package are designed to support and assist you to release your fears and heal your heart in a safe space. The last track takes you on a special journey to heaven to review your life and meet and connect with your departed loved ones.

The Spirit of Gaia is the sacred consciousness of the planet, also referred to in some indigenous cultures as Mother Earth.
It is a belief that there is spirit in everything; in each blade of grass, in each petal of a flower…
There is energy and consciousness in each drop of water and each grain of sand.
Gaia is evolving as humanity is evolving. It is an interlinked partnership. As humanity shifts to a higher vibration and changes, so does the planet.
There is a lot of physical earth movement and changes occurring at the moment, as Gaia is shifting and aligning her energy to hold and support this higher vibration.
Practicing regular meditation can be extremely beneficial.
It is a safe and simple way to balance your physical, emotional and mental states.
Spiritually, meditation enables one to attain higher states of consciousness, allowing a greater sense of awareness and connection to spirit. And often, solutions to problems and insights in your life are realised during meditation.
Meditating with crystals can bring a whole new dimension to the practice of meditation, as crystals can greatly enhance the energy of your intent, whether it be for connention with your guides, raising your vibration, psychic protection or healing.
In the fast paced world we live in, taking time out to unwind and relax is becoming more important and necessary.
Job and family demands can build up and become overwhelming… Not to mention the constant bills, car payments and rent or your mortgage.
What is the solution?
Well there are many, but a very simple one is to practice relaxation meditation.
With meditation – you begin to feel an inner peace and stillness. It allows you to slow your down your mind and hush the constant mental chatter.
Ultimately, you learn to take control of our thoughts and emotions – and the little bumps in the road of life become much smoother.
Often, we carry pain and trauma in our heart that needs to be released and healed.
I really believed it was important to offer the following meditation for free, as so many of us are in need of this healing.
It has been designed to support and assist you to release your fears and heal your heart in a safe space.
Chances are you have heard someone talking about ‘grounding’ at one point or another.
But what does grounding actually mean?
Grounding is a spiritual term, referring to centering your soul in your body, and in turn, connecting it with Mother Earth.
When these connections are strong, it can help you feel safer and more in touch with the earth and Mother Nature.
If you experience a lot of fear and anxiety in your day-to-day, it is possible that you have become ungrounded.
So what is the best way to ground yourself? It’s quite simple really – and you have choices.
I recall from my childhood driving in the car with my family. It was raining and the sun was just beginning to break through the clouds.
A beautiful rainbow began to form overhead.
As a kid I recall watching cartoons that depicted that if you ever reached the end of the rainbow, you would meet magical elves and faeries and be rewarded with a pot of gold. I would often fantasize about this and one day I tried to reach the end of a rainbow to no avail. As I walked closer the rainbow got further and further away.
But I kept believing there were magical fairies and elves awaiting anyone who could reach the end of the rainbow.
You walk in to a busy shopping center to do your groceries. It is loud, busy, and not all of the energies are nice.
A couple is arguing in the corner, a baby is crying uncontrolled, the cashier hates their job and secretly wishes the isles would fall like dominoes and crush all of the customers.
We all have situations in our lives where we must interact with people without our choosing. Whether it is strangers on a bus, relatives at Christmas, or school and work colleagues…
We all know the feelings … Some people make us feel great and uplifted; others drain our energy and leave us flat.
But should our well-being be at the mercy of others? Definitely Not.
Fear is a powerful force. It entwines itself through our entire existence in so many ways.
Much has been written on recognizing your fears and the value of facing them head on, but fear is not a simple concept – and overcoming them can be a daunting process.
I had a friend who was scared of heights. To prove he was a real man he jumped from a plane.
I had a friend who was scared to be alone, so she jumped from one man’s bed to another.
I myself was scared of the unknown, and walked along my spiritual path jumping in fright at every new encounter.
If you would rather be strolling along a tropical beach, listening to the waves gently caress the sand, and feeling the sunshine kiss your skin…
I invite you to take a 5 Minute Vacation with Susan Castle.
Release your stess and tension, and take a short journey into your imagination.

The path to enlightenment is often called a path because it is a journey through time and space … You don’t simply wake up one day enlightened.
It takes time and dedication to the spiritual path over many years and lifetimes. Everyone is at different stages of enlightenment on the planet. Some are more advanced in areas and some are still in infancy in areas.
Life on earth supports enlightenment through the challenges, tests and trials we are faced with throughout our life.
