Recovery Rhythms

We are very pleased to announce that our rebranding efforts are at their final stages, and although we can share our new name and logo with you just now, the full transition will not be complete until we move premises.

We just want to say a massive THANK YOU to everybody who contributed to the rebranding process, through sharing how our service made you feel, and by helping us vote for the new name that aligns with this the most.

The theme that kept coming up within our consultation work was that our service was "medicine for the soul". Indeed, we had never thought about it this way, so your input was super helpful in helping us understand the need for the word "soul" to be in there.

We were also challenged on the use of the word "shack" - some people felt it sounded run-down, but here is the reality.....most people who attend our service are indeed run-down. We are also run-down a lot of the time!!! But isn't that part of the beauty? Isn't it wonderful to admit that we can't and never will be perfect? We never want our place to feel like a place you need to be perfect to attend, or indeed a place that you will leave feeling perfect - because you won't. But what you will experience is a place where you can arrive in any condition you wish, and be welcomed regardless. A place where you will leave feeling better, not perfect. Therefore, "shack" seemed aligned with this. Also, if you haven't read the book titled 'The Shack', we highly recommend it.

So, here we have it - our new name and logo - co-created with our wonderful service-users, and Aitken Design. Thank you all once again for your support with this, and we look forward to welcoming you all to The Soul Shack very soon :)

Do you remember we asked you to join us in prayer for Princess P?

We are deeply sad to share that she passed away shortly after. Princess P is a beautiful girl called Paige, and we have the privilege of knowing her parents, who were so moved by your prayers, comments and thoughts.

It may not have been the outcome that everybody wanted, but the very act of offering your prayers has helped carry her parents through tremendous grief - so thank you to you all ❤️

There has been a huge outpouring of grief following the tragic news 💔

You know those kids who spent their childhood saying "watch me"...."look at me"....the kids who always found a performance opportunity? Yeh....some of us here never grew out of that, and we LOVE IT.

Society calls it 'attention-seeking'.....but we call it 'energy-building' ✨️

These "watch me" kids are always deeply attuned to the energy in rooms. It's not ever really about them. They are sensitive to low vibrations and almost compulsively, do all they can to lift energy. What you may not know is that it can be lonely and draining. They often put heavy expectations on themselves to be the energy conductor. To always be happy. To always bring light. It can actually be a pretty lonely mental state.

So the next time you feel compelled to call someone an "attention-seeker", try and remember it's not attention they seek. It's energy. It's happiness. It's positivity. It's harmony.

To my fellow "watch me" kids.....thank you ❤️
