Today in Reiki Master training, this (not so) little Care Bear became my very patient assistant as I demonstrated how to pass on attunements. ✨
Reiki doesn’t have to be serious to be sacred.
And if you know me, you know I’m always going to find a reason to laugh somewhere in the middle of it!
If you know, you know 🤷🏻♀️
The Care Bear has significance… in Level 2 I teach Gyoshi Ho (the Reiki gaze technique), and ever since called it the “Care Bear Stare,” that’s what it’s been known as in my world 😂👀

Feeling so honoured to be starting a Reiki Mastership journey with a new student today 💚
An absolutely beautiful soul, and I’m so excited to see where this path takes her.
One of the things I love most about the Reiki Mastership programme is that it’s completely 1-1 and bespoke, tailored to the individual, their energy, their pace, their life.
Thanks to technology, I get to teach this work online today… surrounded by crystals, tea, blankets, and all the cosy magic ✨ and deliver this beautiful course to anywhere in the world. I really do feel incredibly lucky.
The Reiki Mastership is a 12-month, fully bespoke programme, delivered online, created to support deep embodiment, confidence, and mastery ... not just certification.

Jumping on the Chat charicature prompt bandwagon, this is hilarious...

After teaching Reiki Level II today… don’t mind me if I just lay here on the bed for a minute before I put it away 😂

I'm so excited for to be joining me this Sunday for her Reiki level 2... The perfect way to be spending Imbolc! Emma is a massive support & inspiration to so many people - and I can't wait to see where her practitioner level takes her next 💚

I had an absolutely lovely day today teaching Reiki in someone’s home. The weather was a very typical slow Sunday - grey skies, steady rain, but there was something so comforting about being tucked up indoors, sharing Reiki, energy healing, gentle meditations, and of course… lots of tea.
I always feel deeply blessed to share Reiki teachings, and I truly adore doing so. There’s also something extra special about offering this work in someone else’s home, within their own space.. it feels intimate, grounded, and really quite magical 💚✨

Someone asked me yesterday to ‘sell myself’ as a Reiki therapist, but that’s not a game I’m interested in playing ✌🏻
There are so many incredible Reiki practitioners out there, each with their own unique gifts and style. Honestly, the Reiki world is full of beautiful, healing energy being shared in so many forms... and that’s something I deeply celebrate 💚
I'm not here to compete with any of them. Reiki isn’t about being ‘better’ or trying to out-sell someone else. It’s about finding the right person for your unique journey.
I truly believe that the most important thing is following who you feel naturally drawn to, someone who makes you feel safe, heard, and supported. And if ever I feel that another practitioner might be a better fit for you, I’ll happily share their details, because your healing deserves that kind of care and honesty.
Because healing isn’t about competition, it’s about connection and trust

So much intention goes into building the fire for a firewalk.
Log by log, it is built with care and purpose.
Before it is ever lit, the fire is honoured, anointed, blessed, and given offerings.
Prayers are spoken, healing is invited, and intentions are placed gently into the flames.
This is not just fire.
It is ceremony.
It is transformation.
Firewalks are deeply moving, powerful, and profoundly healing experiences, moments of meeting yourself at the edge and remembering your strength.
And if you’re hearing the quiet whispers to walk the fire, to step into something deeper…
get in touch 🔥❤️🔥

✨ A beautiful soul has just joined me for a year-long Reiki Mastership ✨
And I never stop feeling honoured when someone says yes to this path.
Over the next year, we’ll be moving from Reiki beginner to Reiki Master - not by rushing through levels, but by allowing the work to unfold naturally, layer by layer.
Reiki Mastery isn’t about “doing more.”
It’s about deepening your relationship with energy, learning to trust yourself, and embodying Reiki in everyday life.
As a teacher, my role isn’t to give you power, it’s to help you remember the power you already carry.
I’m so excited to guide this student into the world of Reiki and witness where this year takes them. Every journey looks different, and that’s the magic of this work.
If you’ve been feeling the quiet nudge that your Reiki path is calling you deeper… trust that curiosity. 💚

Our ancestors live within us - through our stories, our DNA, and the unseen threads that shape our lives. Ancestral healing is the practice of connecting with and honouring those who came before us, bringing light, love, and resolution to what has been carried across generations.
When we tend to ancestral energy, we free ourselves (and future generations) from repeating cycles of pain, scarcity, fear, or silence — allowing more flow, clarity, and purpose to emerge in our lives today.
Ancestral healing is a Shamanic practice that has been known and honoured since ancient times.
Modern science is now beginning to echo this ancient wisdom through the study of epigenetics. On a biological level, trauma experienced by your ancestors can cause chemical changes in gene expression without altering their DNA sequence. These epigenetic markers can be passed down through generations, influencing how your body and brain respond to stress and increasing vulnerability to anxiety, depression, or other health challenges. Trauma can also shape the development and regulation of your nervous system, with heightened stress responses passed on through prenatal experiences and early caregiving environments.
You may feel called to ancestral healing if:
🌿 You notice repeating patterns in your life - similar relationships, challenges, or emotional themes that keep resurfacing
🌿 You feel a deep inner pull to understand where you come from or to reconnect with your roots
🌿 You have a sense of carrying emotions, burdens, or blocks that don’t fully feel like your own
🌿 You sense that *something unseen* is holding you back or asking to be healed
Feeling the call?
Join us on our retreat day on 1st November, where we will be holding an Ancestral healing ceremony ✨
During this ceremony, we’ll honour our ancestors, release old stories, and invite healing through love, gratitude, and presence.

One thing about me… you never quite know what you’re going to get 🙃
I had the pleasure of teaching Reiki Level 2 online today, and this little bear is who I use as a prop when demonstrating Distance Healing.
He ended up staying for the whole session 😂
He was my Grandma’s bear - I like to think she was helping me deliver the course! 💚
