Having recovered from a car accident at 19, which left Natasha in a coma, suffering a Subarachnoid Brain Haemhorrage and jaw injuries, memory loss and many other effects, ‘Awareness’ reflects her to return to balance. Months and years after, having defied the surgeons’ predictions for her future, she wishes to share her story and remind us how anything is possible if you have faith, hope and belief in your own strength. Of course, always leaving room for humour. Natasha believes we all have our own special talent(s) that we must honour and we must truly cherish our health and each day. That equality and respect for all is a must and that everything you wish for you can create for yourself, when in balance.

Throughout her book, through her graphics and text, she shares a life's guide of living each day in balance, with 'Awareness' of yourself and the world around you. Covering an array of topics such as; the self-healing practice of Metamorphosis, energy healing, communications, creativity, family, music, strength, success, physical exercise, sport, food, languages, technology, relationships, love, light and many more. Along with many activities to assist you in creating your own balance which will allow you to enjoy each day.

Natasha includes worldwide interviews of people, both known and unknown, including her parents John Devine, football coach and ex-Arsenal F.C. and Ireland footballer and her mother, Michelle Rocca Morrison, Former TV Broadcaster and writer. With 'Awareness' she hopes you will realise the positive effect that you alone, when in balance can make on the world. With Awareness you will fight your fears and live each day and moment in balance, with happiness and light, as you deserve.

Chapter One

AWARENESS......

Typography and Graphics: NRD

ABUNDANCE

If you take note of all that is around you and all the people in your life, you will see that there is limitless abundance available.

"Riches are not from abundance of worldly goods but from a contented mind." Mohammed

"Not what we have but what we enjoy constitutes our abundance." Epicurus

ACCEPTANCE

ACCEPT YOU. ACCEPT OTHERS. ACCEPT NOW.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Please acknowledge yourself and others; even a simple smile could lighten up someone's day.

"Acknowledgement of one another's faults is the highest duty imposed by our love of truth." Ambrose Bierce

"Some of the most devastating things that happen to you will teach you the most." Ellen DeGeneres

ACTING AND HEALING

Having studied and practiced in acting both on stage and camera, I experienced the healing qualities that it encompasses. Not only is acting creative as it embodies the idea of living in the moment, but also it broadened my Awareness of others.

Yet, each day, I see people all around the world showing Oscar-worthy performances. In order to protect themselves in life, people embody a role pending on which environment they are placed in.

*NEW IDEA: STOP ACTING IN LIFE.

Take a class in ACTING and performance but keep DRAMA for the stage or Film Set. BEING TRUE TO YOURSELF in every moment is the key to happiness. NRD

"I have a holistic need to work and to have huge ties of love in my life. I can't imagine eschewing one for the other." Meryl Streep

"The actor should be able to create the universe in the palm of his hand." Sir Laurence Olivier

"True actors don't just want to act: you are compelled to this life. It is a life vocation that breathes through your veins and no other life will do. I am blessed to know what I want to do for the rest of my life, not everyone is that lucky. Acting lives in the imagination and is self-healing! It inspires me every day to be the best person I can be.

You experience roles that are wonderful and some that are tormenting and sad and that has left me with empathy and compassion for all that I experience in my own life.

Whatever I may be going through in my own life on any given day - when I walk into a rehearsal room, or on stage or on set, that gets left behind at the door and I play - I play with truth, honesty and integrity and the dream is that my dedication gives someone watching the escapism and inspiration they are seeking." Irish Actress Vanessa Mathias Fahy

ACTION

I agree with Robert St John (Metamorphosis) that `the mind behind the action is the beginning of everything'. Action is necessary to gain results. Yet, in order for things to be creative, it must begin from a place of balance. IF YOU WISH FOR CREATIVE RESULTS ... BE HONEST AND ACT ONLY ON YOUR INSTINCTS. nrd

"One must learn by doing the thing, for though you think you know it, you have no certainty until you try." Aristotle

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." Sir Isaac Newton

ACUPUNCTURE

I have tried Acupuncture various times, which I felt helped my circulation and grounded me after each treatment. In this treatment it deals with the symptom of your imbalance.

According to the Acupuncture Council of Ireland: "The traditional Chinese theory holds that the body's life energy called Qi (pronounced Chee) travels around the body in pathways called meridians. The acupuncturist views illness as an energetic imbalance and is able to influence this imbalance by inserting very fine needles at certain points along these channels called Acupoints.

The acupuncturist may also use heat treatment (called Moxibustion) or Cupping in the treatment."

NOTE: CUPPING IS USED AS A MEANS OF DETOXIFYING THE BODY. PREPARE FOR IMMEDIATE BRUSING. SO, PLEASE DO NOT PLAN ANY BEACH TRIPS POST-CUPPING!

ACUPRESSURE

Acupressure is suggested for those who are fearful of needles and can be used during and after treatments. It applies the same fundamentals as Acupuncture.

Acupressure stimulates the same points along the meridians as acupuncture without the use of needles. This can be performed by the patient at home and is often used on very young children both at home and in a clinic setting.

AFFECTION

Affection is part of life. EMBRACE AFFECTION.

"We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection." Dalai Lama

ALIVENESS

*EXERCISE: FIND AN ACTIVITY THAT MAKES YOU FEEL ALIVE and IN THE MOMENT.

"Don't worry about what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and do that. What the world needs is people who have come alive." Dr. Howard Thurman

"THERE'S A FIRE STARTING IN MY HEART ... REACHING A FEVER PITCH AND ITS BRINGING ME OUT OF THE DARK." ADELE

ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE YOU-IN EACH MOMENT

BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE. EACH MOMENT YOU SHOULD AND DESERVE TO SHINE. Nrd

"Your soul's purpose is to participate in wholeness: to express love, delight, joy, creativity and all of those qualities that emerge from Source, from wholeness." HIRO BOGA

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?" Marianne Williamson

ANGER

ANGER = INNER FREEDOM CHALLENGED *PLEASE RELEASE THIS AS WITH ANGER ONLY YOU LOSE. NRD

"Whenever you are confronted with an opponent, conquer him with love." Mahatma Gandhi

ANIMALS

Animals are natural healers as they are representative and connected to growth and nature.

Our task must be to free ourselves... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty." Albert Einstein

ANGELS

Whether you believe in angels or not, I embrace their concept, which is of seeing creation and light in life. Like Michelangelo says; "I saw an Angel in the marble and carved until I set it free."

ART AND HEALING

In my opinion art and healing are symbiotic. I disagree with the idea that creating drama or pain to create art is necessary. Also, disagreeing with the concept that artists should be stereotyped as victims. True artists are messengers recording a moment in time in a creative way.

PAIN=PAIN. CREATION=CREATION.

Hence, Art must be created in a moment of creativity. It then allows people to channel their passion and pain into something creative. Therefore, art is a way to heal, whilst creating something beautiful.

*Q and A: We all have artistic qualities, what are yours?

"Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art." Konstantin Stanislavsky

"All true artists, whether they know it or not, create from a place of no-mind, from inner stillness." Eckhart Tolle

"Artists are visionaries. We routinely practice a form of faith, seeing clearly and moving toward a creative goal that shimmers in the distance- often visible to us but invisible to those around us." Julia Cameron

ATTITUDE

Your attitude in each day is reflective of your state of mind. People who have respect and pride for their job, life and others have the right attitude. IF YOU HAVE A NEGATIVE ATTITUDE THEN PLEASE WORK ON IT NOW! REMEMBER, IT IS DOWN TO YOU TO CHANGE IT. EVERYONE AROUND YOU DESERVES TO BE HAPPY. YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY.

"If you can do something about a bad situation, why be...
