How to alchemise the heaviness into ease
At first when I started writing about this topic I tried to offer something guiding… but it didn’t work. This topic is important to me still – so instead I’m going to offer my experience: Before I had labels for what the heaviness was, it was known to me as a thick, weighted dread. It…

How to feel love and connection
What a loaded topic we’re tackling for the month of February! Albeit a relevant one, with the un-avoidable Val Day looming… Ironically, this day can make one feel greater isolation and disconnection, as it creates a sense of ‘lack’ of specific kinds of relationships – namely, romantic ones. Whatever your romantic relationship status, it can…

In the New Year: I envision & I intend…
In the new year we envision; re-imagine possibilities & call them forth… It can be a tiring concept, ‘resolutions’, as these have a joyless, punitive flavour – expectations that end in disappointment… Instead I’m inviting you to lean into inspiration – I am feeling into the depths of my heart-soul & calling on expansive energy……

A march update
It’s been a full on month of Feb, with a great amount to process through personally, which has taken up the majority of my time and energy. I’ve been missing being able to keep the blog up to date on a weekly basis, whilst practising the boundary of showing up when I have availability, and…

How to be guided
Have you ever physically taken a step back from a conversation, a person, a place that you were considering? Or leaned in when a conversation got delightful, humorous, fascinating? Or maybe you feel tingles, butterflies, a light, expansive chest? Or a clenched, heavy, nauseating feeling in the ‘pit of the stomach’… I really believe that…

Seven ways to add joy to your day
I’ve found it’s easy to lose touch with finding joy in the day-to-day routines & processes of living and that small changes can add great quality. So here are seven small things that have worked for me: 1. Walks. Walking exposes the body to much needed Vitamin D (even on over-cast days), limbers the aching…
