The Role of Self-Inquiry in Counselling Manly: A Conscious Path to Emotional Balance

Exploring how the practice of self-inquiry—supported by counselling in Manly—can deepen emotional awareness and foster a more conscious, balanced life.

This article explores the transformative role of self-inquiry in achieving emotional balance through counselling in Manly. It defines self-inquiry as the mindful practice of questioning one’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviours to gain deeper self-awareness. The article highlights how counselling provides a safe, supportive space to explore these reflections more deeply and effectively. It also emphasises the unique benefits of engaging in counselling in a setting like Manly, where the coastal environment naturally supports calm, introspection, and conscious living. Practical tips for integrating self-inquiry into everyday life—such as journalling, mindfulness, and meditation—are offered to help readers continue their journey beyond the therapy room. Readers are invited to explore local counselling services aligned with conscious, values-based living.

Burren Junction Public School’s open netball team win their way through to the state knockout finals

Netball took centre stage when Burren Junction Public School’s open team travelled to Yamba this week, with the beach as a perfect scenic backdrop to their shot at going for state glory.

The small school from the north west proved unstoppable once again in round three of the 2025 NSWPSSA Small Schools Netball Knockout Competition as they scored a dominant victory to book a ticket to the state finals in Sydney this September.

How I became a Fettler in 1964

How I became a Fettler in 1964

by Rob Bell

My name is Rob Bell, and I was born in East Bankstown (later Greenacre) in 1945, into a solid working-class family. By 1964, 5 years after leaving Punchbowl Boys High, I was requested by the local gendarmes to leave town. This was also issued to many of my friends who, like myself, travelled down the wrong roadway.

A friend who had been off the scene for a while was back in town and was going on about working on the railway as a fettler in a place called Burren Junction. Where the hell is B.J., we all cried, North West NSW, have you heard of Walgett? Well, it's this side of Walgett, and they are looking for workers.

So come Monday, we all troop down to Central Station (about 6 of us) for a medical and get the guts on this Fettler business. Being good, strong Aussie boys with an average age of around 20, we were in. Some of us were sent to Cryon and others to BJ.
