Being unmasked might be the aspirational but there's often a choice to be made between authenticity and safety. How does this show up for you and how do you evaluate that choice?

Join us as we approach Beltane or Bealtaine, the Celtic celebration marking the peak of spring. Open to people of all faiths, and those with none, this circle is for anyone who wants to gather in community.

Through eco-therapy and somatic practices, we’ll attune to the body, the land and each other. We’ll also connect with creativity and intention, through a Beltane crafting ritual.

These gatherings are trauma-informed, identity and gender-affirming, and neurodiversity-affirming, welcoming people of all genders and gender expressions.

COME AS YOU ARE. REST BY THE FIRE. CELEBRATE SPRING

It’s The Spring Equinox in The Northern Hemisphere, which means we’ve emerged from the darkness of winter. Day and night are equal in length today, with balance between light and dark. In some traditions, the spring equinox represents an opportunity to reflect on areas of our lives that feel out of balance.

As the season shifts, you can ask yourself:

* Are there any parts of your routine or ways of being that might benefit from e a little more energy or a different approach, f that feels relevant to you?

* What kinds of growth could feel supportive or interesting to you (in relationships, creativity, work, or wellbeing), or is it a time to stay as you are?

* On the next slide, you’ll find some body based invitations to explore this somatically.

Check out the carousel for somatic invitations to explore this through the body.

The Selkie’s Skin - a somatic folklore meditation and embodiment journey.
At liminal times, when the veil between worlds is thin, it is said that seals can become human.

At the edge of the shore, where everything shifts, the spring tide rises under the pull of the moon.

This swell of water brings the selkies.

Shapeshifters.

Wild and unbound, they emerge from the dark depths of the sea, changing from seal to human by shedding their skin.

Selkie myths, found in the folklore of Scotland, Ireland and the Faroe Islands, tell stories of shapeshifting, identity and thresholds.

As Spring fully arrives, we might be thinking about shedding our own winter skin to step into the energy of a new season.

My latest audio guided somatic meditation practice connects with the mythology of the Selkie, inviting you to explore it through your embodied experience of it.

To connect with this energy of shedding, as we step into Spring as the Equinox arrives, you might ask yourself what desires, strength, or wildness might be ready to emerge or be reclaimed?
Check out the practice on my website or Patreon. Head to my bi@.

We’ll be creating and walking spiral at tomorrow’s Rooted Self session. Labyrinths have been a part of human for thousands of years and they’re found in almost every culture.

In Celtic tradition, the spiral represents life's cyclical nature: the way things contract and expand, end and begin again. This week we find ourselves at the point of the spring equinox, when after months of spiralling inward, the year begins to spiral back out.

Research into the effects of walking labyrinths shows that this kind of mindful, intentional movement settles the nervous system, shifts our emotional state, and connects us to something deeper than the thinking mind.

Walking the spiral is a simple act: as you move inward, you can release what you're carrying. At the centre, you pause. And as you walk back out, you might call something in; an intention, an answer to a question, or a state of being. You don’t need an elaborate spiral or labyrinth to try this. All you need to do is walk.

Simple somatic practices to ground, to come back to yourself and to be in contact with your body. You don't need to spend loads of time on these to benefit. Try a minute or so of each practice and see wha that feels like.

Sharing some reflections on polyvagal theory, in light of the current debate. I still think aspects of it as useful as a roadmap, rather than a scientific blueprint. Head to the link in my bio to read more about my approach and to understand your nervous system in this context.

As a late-diagnosed autistic and ADHD therapist, I believe that the narrow perspective of the medical model harms autistic people. It misses the whole person and overlooks the strategies we develop to survive. Some people function well because they have structured their environments to reduce sensory, cognitive, or social strain, while others develop coping strategies in response to chronic stress or exclusion. Environmental adaptations and trauma can shape how traits appear.

Today I’m sharing a little more about my what happens over in the other place (which sounds sinister but it isn't)

The spaces I hold are rooted in psychology, folk traditions, neuroscience, and my training within Pagan priestess lineages. The space is also shaped by my lived experience as an AuDHD (autistic and ADHD) woman, and by my work supporting other neurodivergent people as they navigate the world. Because of this, everything I offer is neuro-affirming, trauma-informed, and as accessible as possible so anyone who finds their way here feels welcomed and supported.

I created this space to bring together the different strands of my work. As something new, it continues to shift, grow, and evolve. In the past I’ve held circles exploring cycles and seasons, earth based spirituality, folklore, and ritual through a more cognitive lens. Embodiment has always been part of these spaces, but it has become increasingly important as I’ve experienced, and witnessed in others, the shifts that come from being more connected to ourselves.

This space explores the shifting, the liminal, and the cyclical, in relationship with the outer world. Nature, tradition, folklore, and archetypes offer ways for our inner experience to be mirrored back to us.
There is also an emphasis on turning inward. Listening to and embodying our inner experience, and deepening our relationship with ritual, the more than human world, and our place within it.

What you’ll find there each month:

• An invitation into intention at the start of the month with somatic prompts and the themes we’ll explore
• A 10 to 15 minute somatic meditation and embodiment practice exploring nature, ritual, or archetypes
• Occasional reflections and posts to support your journey
• Integration invitations toward the end of the month

Paid members also get: 
• A longer 45 to 60 minute somatic meditation and embodiment practice
• A live online integration circle, recorded if you can’t join live. Photo by

What is the difference between want, need and desire for you? How do you know what the drivers for each of these are?

What are transitions like for you? They can be difficult for a lot of neurodivergent people, me included. I know I need to allow space to settle around transitions and I know my nervous system needs support. What's your experience?
