📖 Book update… 📖

Hello lovely humans! ✨

Dropping in with a quick update on book progress! ❤️

Sadly, it’s not going to be here for Christmas after all! 😢

When I received my sample copy last week, I knew immediately there were things that I really wanted to change… I had the tough decision of choosing to release it on schedule as it was (knowing it wasn’t quite right) or to make the tweaks I wanted and surrender to the delay! 🙇🏻‍♀️

I can wholeheartedly say I tried my very best to have it released this year, but this book has had its own timeline, and to be completely honest, it’s always been for the highest good, so I know I can trust this is the right choice! ✨

I’m so sorry to let anyone down that planned on gifting this book for Christmas, yet please know that when it lands in your hands in January, it will have been made with so much love and attention to detail! 💖

I’ve been juggling a lot this month, it’s been one of those humbling periods where I’ve had to let go of a lot of ideals and constantly re-prioritise! ❤️

If anyone else is feeling this energy, remember to breathe deeply, eat even if it’s not the perfect meal and make time to rest even if it feels like there’s no time to rest! 🫶🏻

Sending lots of love!

You’re invited to join me for this absolutely gorgeous long weekend retreat on the North Norfolk coast - my favourite part of this country! 😍

Let me welcome you into this space where you get to completely switch off and receive head to toe nourishment! 💆🏼‍♀️ I truly believe these sacred pauses are where the magic happens! 🪄

Another special addition to this retreat… I’ve included the option to extend your stay by 1 night! This won’t be part of the retreat, simply time spent in community with space to further explore the beautiful surroundings and integrate all of the magic! This night will be catered for by me! 👩🏻‍🍳

Retreat memories 🥹✨❤️🫶🏻🥰

After the last retreat all the way back in Feb, we got the keys to our new house and I never got round to sharing anything here! 🫣 Better late than never! 🫢

I LOVE our retreat spaces so much! They’re always full of magic and each take on their own unique energy field guided by the intention weaved into each one! 🪄 And they ALWAYS attract the most amazing group of humans! 🥹

Nouirsh and Play (Sept 24) was just that… so much nourishment and so much play… we painted pots, we decorated cookies, made our own tea blends, had cacao in the woods, toasted marshmallows round the fire and drank herbal tonics in the hot tub! 🫶🏻

Heart and Soul (Feb 25) was a deep dive into the voice of our heart and soul… tapping into our desires and dreams for the year ahead! We made vision boards, created essential oil blends to anchor our intentions, took a deeper spiral with cacao, and gave each other a huge amount of love! ❤️

Breathing Space… coming March 2026 is going to be all about scared self care! 💆🏼‍♀️ Empowered rest and natures nourishment will be guiding our journey as we take some much deserved time out! 🫶🏻 Expect time spent wrapped up in nature, beach walks, creative weavings (of course) and lots of love shared around the fire! ❤️

All the retreats I create include:
✨ daily yoga, meditation and breathwork
✨ a journey with ceremonial cacao
✨ crystalline sound bath
✨ dream realm yoga nidra
✨ 1:1 holistic treatment (included in the price)
✨ luxury accommodation
✨ sauna and hot tub
✨ 3 nourishing meals a day + snacks

It’s such a treat to share these spaces with you! Counting down the days till the next one… we’re about 5 months away! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Look forward to sharing more tomorrow… 👀

Coming up in October… 👀 🍂 ✨

Eee… I’m super excited for this month! I have some new events and collabs coming up which is bringing me a lot of joy! 😍 And this time of year is my absolute favourite… jumper season with bursts of the most delicious sunshine! It’s giving me life! 🌞 And controversial opinion, but I LOVE the return of the darker days! 🫣

Octobers magical vibes are almost here…

I’ll be reunited with my Colchester community this Thursday at the vegan market, serving up the most nutritious and delicious treats! 🍪 Come see me, it would be so nice to say hi! 🤗

Toward the end of the month I have my first supper club at the beautiful .studio_ in Hadleigh! 😍 I’m super excited to connect with my new local community here and serve up the most decadent feast… the menu is literally SO dreamy! 🤤

And of course our monthly yin and din is just round the corner - next Friday! 🥳 Yin season has truly begun and the colder days bring a whole new level of cosy vibes to our sessions! 🥰 Highly recommend joining us for the best food, best humans, and the most perfect way to end the week and start your weekend! 💆🏼‍♀️

Who can make any of these events?! ☺️ I look forward to seeing some of your lovely faces! 🫶🏻 I’ve been away in hiding for so long working on my book - it’s almost finished!!! ✨

And on a separate note… who else is super excited for Taylor’s new record to come out this Friday?! 🙋🏼‍♀️💃🏼👯‍♀️

🌱 COLCHESTER VEGAN MARKET 🌱

Hellooo Colchester fam! ✨ I’m super excited to be selling at the market at .cafe next Thursday 2nd Oct! 😍

I’ve hand picked some of the best sellers from the cafe days and hope you enjoy being reunited with them! 😋

This will be the only public market I sell at, so I decided to also open up pre orders so you can stock up on your favs for the month! Everything will be baked fresh and suitable for home freezing too! ☺️

I’m really looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and being part of this community event, it’s been a long time since I’ve done anything like this! 🥰

Over here still writing my book, playing my bowls, nurturing connections and re-reading the 55th gene key (highly recommend) 🧬✨🦋💕🫶🏻

Oh hello September! 🌚

Is anyone else fully in cosy mode already? 🙋🏼‍♀️

I am SO ready for Autumn and I don’t know when I changed from being a sun baby to a snug bug! 🐻 But I really love the darker evenings… the returning balance of light and dark feels super nourishing! 🥰

I’m super excited to pop my head out of my recipe book bubble to hold these 2 sessions next month! ✨ We’ve got some magical energy supporting us and the temple is gonna be a potent time to shift some energy and restore balance within! 🥰

And as always, yin and din is such a gorgeous opportunity to unwind after a busy week and be held in such a restorative cocoon, a real slowing down and softening + you get fed a nourishing feast in community, with always the most gorgeous group of humans!

No experience needed. These workshops are gentle and will meet you where you are ☺️

The temple is not suitable for those who are pregnant, yin and din is suitable for all ❤️

Dates are live on my website 🔗

I look forward to seeing you there! Any questions, just reach out! 🫶🏻

Lots of love,
April ###x
