Finding Qi In Me

Beautifully illustrated 🥰
At my weekly QiGong class I'm always banging on about the kidneys, especially at this time of the year as in Traditional Chinese Medicine Winter is a time to focus on the water element and the kidneys. 💖 " Keep them happit" my granny would have said. 🥰 and so north east wisdom meets far east wisdom and the understanding of the need to protect those kidneys 😘 Have a good day 😘🙏

Exactly, catching ourself at the point just before speaking. Pausing, to allow an opportunity to change the script is SOOO powerful. Give it a go. 🥰 see what shifts not only in how you start to speak but how you feel in your body and how you start to think and see the world in a very different way. Beauty within and without.💖

A time for honouring our ancestors and face the darker time of the year. A time too when there is a thinning of the veil, allowing spirits to travel between worlds creating a sacred time for spiritual connection and remembrance. We are marking the end of summer, harvesting what has shown up for us and observing the natural cycle of life. Recognising everything dies and that we can take nature's lead within our own cycle by dedicating some time to focus on what aspects of our Self we would like to release so we can then begin to call in, set intention for, sow seeds for and nurture through the winter, germinate and sprout in the spring ♥️

🧡 Samhain Blessings 🧡 Remembering our loved ones🧡
Today we celebrate Samhain/ All Hallows' Eve/ Halloween in the Northern Hemisphere, honouring the Celtic Festival of the New Year.

In this ancient tradition we are starting a new cycle in our life tonight as we are entering the darkest quarter of the year. In nature now is the time when the seeds lie dormant in the earth to gather strength and energy in the dark, fertile soil for their reawakening in spring. In our life it is a time to go within, reflect on the year that is coming to an end and nourish the seeds in our hearts which we would like to see bear fruit in our future.

It is believed that on the night of Samhain the veils between our world and the otherworld are at their thinnest so that both worlds can meet. So that we will be able to touch the unbroken thread which connects us to the ones who passed before us.

Let us take time to honour our ancestors and our loved ones who passed through the veil before us and give gratitude for their gifts for without them we wouldn't be who we are. Tonight we will leave seats for them by the fire and put plates with food out for them at our feasts. We remember and honour the ones we have loved and lost in stories and songs...

If there is somebody you would like to remember and hold in love and light together with our global community, please put their name in the comments below. And if you choose, please tell us a little bit about this person and why they were important to you. Let's hold all our loved ones who went before us in our hearts at this special time of year and send them our Love and Light.

🍂🍁🧡🍁🍂

PS. To all of you in the Southern Hemisphere, we wish you a happy Beltaine. Have a wonderful time going into the abundance of summer. Today as the veils between the worlds are at their thinnest no matter where we are on the planet, you might also like to take a moment to connect to your ancestors and loved ones who have passed and sow seeds for summer to come... 🌱☀️🌱
