This morning ~ a new In To Heart journey began ✨

A tender exploration of where their heart, their true self wishes to carry them next 👣

In the circle of Rowan and thorny hedgerow with the support from the land, trees, and insects.

A deeply protective space that keeps away any negative energy and encourages you to open and gently explore your beautiful heart. Allowing what wishes to arise to unfurl from within.

A journey that we weave together, partners trusting in each other and the path ahead.

No session is like another, responding to what arises and wishes to be held, taking cues from intuition and nature. Rituals and song to release, poetry and gratitude to awaken new beginnings wove today as of from the air.

No pressure, no expectations. All is led from the heart. A sacred portal.

So grateful to this space for welcoming another with open arms and the creatures that stopped by! So honoured to hold this space, and walk by the side of such a beautiful heart and soul.

👣In To Heart is for those who feel called to deepen their connection with themselves and explore the path their heart is guiding them on.

I have 2 client spaces currently available for 1:1 sacred journey. A bespoke path of deepened connection and becoming.

👉🏼Pop me a HEART via private message to begin a conversation, or use link in bio to book a free call

Every heart walks it’s own path, this is space to honour yours

Ready when you are.

With love,

Earth Day 2026 🌍💚

The most glorious morning was had today at Alderley Edge National Trust 🌿

Thanks to everyone that carved out time to give back to nature, this beautiful space so so many enjoy, with the simple act of litter picking ~ and I show Earth we care 😘

A big thank you to rangers for the litter picking gear, for the beautiful sounds of the gong that accompanied our walk, and Tina aka the litter picking pixie for starting the morning off with lots of giggles as she shared her beautiful story of the Edge.

Earth Day this year is “our planet, our power” and how simple, small acts at an individual and community level can create a ripple effect of positivity and change.

We know the trees loved our small act of giving this morning as less rubbish now lies at their roots, and the birds treated us to extra birdsong in thanks, whilst the sun shone so bright.

My heart is full from this gorgeous community gathering and I already can’t wait until the next.

Helen and I are keen to do these seasonally so look out for future dates and join us to show Earth you care ✨

With love,
Amanda

Opening the land ~ a ceremony of thanks 💚

A beautiful new season of gathering & space holding begins 🙏🏼

On Sunday I held an opening ceremony on the land I hold space with, a land that has held me through so much personal transformation over the last 6 years.

I felt deeply over winter that I was to honour the land with an opening gathering before doing anything else - remembering the importance of pausing to give thanks to the space, winter that’s now passed, the elements & guides that abundantly gift to those who gather here.

The gathering didn’t quite unfold as I envisioned! I saw others sat with me, a community celebration. The date was set but didn’t align with those who wished to join, I moved the date - still no luck!

There was a simple sense that it just wasn’t meant to be - that this was a ceremony for me to hold privately.

So I trusted & cancelled the gathering.

On Sunday, slowly under the sun I shared a personal, private practice with the fire, making offerings of cacao, candle, breath, flowers & many words of gratitude. Giving special thanks to winter for the rest it’s provided. I set intentions of truth, courage, abundance & healing for the year ahead & called in the beautiful hearts that we’re to serve here.

I hope one day that this will be a community celebration, gathering to give gratitude & welcome in the seasons to come. But for now, this was so right ✨.

he time lapse video caught a little of the prep but signed off before the ceremony began - clearly it really was meant to be private!!

The sun shone & set, the fire was gentle & now the space feels so ready for what’s to unfold.

How you can join me here:
✨1:1 In To Heart pathway to deepened connection (3 spaces available)
🍫1:1 one-off sessions (Wellbeing Reset, Cacao Heart Connection & Visioning Your Heart’s Path)
🔥Cacao Fire Circles with Wheel Of Year (Beltane 1st May)
⛺️ Day & Night On The Land (Summer Solstice 20-21 June) overnight stay!
💚 bespoke private gatherings

👉🏼 send me a DM with ‘hello’ to start a chat or links in bio to find out more

May the seasons ahead unfold in all its abundance, expansion & deepening in to hear

Tender time with the trees 🙏🏼🌿

At today’s forest-bathing walk at Alderley Edge National Trust 🌳

Grateful to the new and returning beings for another magical morning in the woods being curious, open, emotional, slow, gentle, playful and still ✨

Spotting the tiniest of dormouse, feeling changes in energy in the air, meeting nature with the felt touch, endings being released back to the earth, exploring contrasts, new beginnings being planted with new life growing, finding hope in the unfurling ferns.

My heart is full 💕

I felt the delicate journey that participants went on, the unique gifts they received from spending time being amongst the trees, and the gratitude to nature for all it provides.

Every walk is different, as I share - you receive what you need when you go into the woods - today I felt all the tenderness and love in my heart.

I hope you’re able to take a wander in nature this weekend, to notice life unfurling, the earth slowly warming, birds being busy bees and to catch a moment with the sun.

👉🏼join me next month on Saturday 16th May, link in bio to book or drop a 🌳 below

With love and so much gratitude,

Beautiful courageous hearts! 💕

The Moon, Sun and Earth are ALL asking us to ignite 🔥our brave, fearless hearts to follow where they wish to lead us ✨

🔥The New Moon today is full of fire!
There's a load of planets in Aries - all the fiery signs are working to support us!

Fire 🔥🔥🔥the sun’s power 🔥🔥🔥 enables life to grow here on earth - fire brings transformation, cleansing, growth, expansion, and change! 😍

This new moon is a powerful (yet tender) new beginning.

Asking you to be courageous, to follow your passions, desires and the pull of knowing in your heart 💚

To bravely step forwards (gently honouring any tenderness), by saying a big yes to your heart's path with all your trust, forward intention and belief.

It’s time to speak honestly with yourself, to listen to your heart and answer its call.

It's time to shed the final binds that hold you back, to release the fears that no longer serve.
To turn to face the way you know, and leave the shoulds and expectations that have held you back well and truly behind.

It is time 💫

Lead from your truth and move forwards as your heart's desires know.

So beautiful heart - what calls from within to unfurl into life this spring summer?

Will you say yes 😉

Take a step forward with love to the tender parts that you leave behind, that have kept you safe until now.

Your heart knows ✨

👉I have 3 spaces open to work with me 1:1 this spring and summer. Book a complimentary call - no obligation, just a natural conversation, and take a first step into your brave and beautiful heart’s path. Link in bio or private message.

With love and courage,

Amanda

Photo: from my journey to Scotland for the Spring Equinox (I think I've been in a heart portal since and am just coming through it!).
I was called to visit the beach that held a significant pivotal point in my life in 2019 on my way there. Reconnecting with the courageous younger me that took the bravest step of my life, releasing the fears that had kept me bound for a decade so that I could walk this path now. I'll be sharing more over the coming weeks about fear, courage and beautiful hearts.

New Moon Wellbeing Reset (online) ✨

Join me for a gentle monthly practice to pause, reconnect and begin the new lunar cycle with intention, from the heart.

With guided cacao, meditation, journaling and Mother Earth rest 💚

A nourishing hour to step away from the busyness of life in a calm and supportive space.

These sessions are rooted in nature-inspired practices that gently support nervous system regulation, heart connection, reflection and intention setting.

Each monthly wellbeing reset follows a familiar flow, allowing you to arrive with ease and settle into the rhythm of the practice.

The space is primarily reflective and inward, offering time for personal insight while being gently supported by the presence of others gathering with the same intention 💫

🌑Each new moon marks the quiet beginning of a new lunar cycle - a natural moment to slow down, turn inward and listen to what is ready to emerge in the weeks ahead.

You’re warmly invited to bring a cup of ceremonial cacao 🍫if you wish, allowing this ancient plant medicine to support heart connection and reflection. If you don’t have cacao, a cup of herbal tea ☕will be just as welcome.

Tree-reclining & cacao ~ my morning on the hill under the sun 🙏🏼

Taking it extra slow having come down with a minor cold this weekend, which with rest, sleep & nourishing food seems to be blowing over.

I found the perfect tree for a tree-recline, so comfortable lying along the root of the wise, old Ash.

Took my morning cacao practice under the sun on a more modern recliner!!! To enjoy my monday meditation connecting with my higher self and past witch which is always 🔥

"There is wisdom of the head, and there is wisdom of the heart"
~ Charles Dickens

This quote arrived printed on a box before my trip to Scotland, ironically on the box my cacao supply came in! The most heart centred medicine and messenger there is!

It caught my attention, I paused to take note of the words, a sense there was a message to be received.

Away in Scotland, on the wide and open hearted land of the Cairngorms the guidance landed.

I realised I'd got too caught up in my head recently, making decisions for the year from a place of 'should' and making 'best business sense' instead of from feeling my way, trusting my inner knowing or what lit me up the most.

Being in Scotland brought me firmly back onto my heart's path - the path that I always set out for this adventure to be based on.

The mind is a powerful and wonderful, much needed machine! But the heart holds our truth and soul knowing.

A big part of my own personal development over these last 6+ years has been what I refer to as 'conquering the mind'!

I am a No'j, the woodpecker in Mayan energies. So I always think of it as the woodpecker's role is to tap into the dead wood of the tree (the mind) to pull out the worms (all the stuff that gets in our way) - that's exactly how I view my approach to my mind conquering!!

Wisdom of the head comes from shifting through the thoughts and stories that don't serve to focus on the knowledge and our ability to make anything possible when you set your mind to it.

Wisdom of the heart comes from being courageous to trust in what might not make sense, what might be unknown but you just feel in yourself to be your truth. To be the warrior that will stand strong in belief no matter what thoughts or other things try to get in the way.

Real wisdom comes from weaving these two powers together ~ the heart with the head. That's when the sum of 1 + 1 = greater than 2, that's when exponential shifts or change can happen on an individual or collective level.

What steers your path currently ~ wisdom of the head or the heart?

With love,
Amanda
