There are so many deep wounds that we carry as women, that lead us to isolate ourselves but also leads us to mistrust other women.

For me personally, it was things like being bullied at school, not feeling protected as a child in some instances and overprotected in others and also forced to “survive” in my masculine energy.

So it took a long time, to recognize the implications of living like this for so long and a lot of healing before I was remotely able to connect with other women and trust them.

That is exactly why it is my mission to create a nurturing, open, honest and healing space for other women. A space that I so desperately needed once upon a time and now I’m inviting you to join me here.

You are welcome to a gather, in a space where together , you to can feel loved, connected, seen and heard. A space without judgement or expectation. A space where you can feel supported and be completely and wholly yourself !

I cannot wait for you to join me there.

Our thoughts and emotions can be like a waterfall - Rushing over us and preventing us from seeing anything clearly.
Imagine stepping away, gently observing it without judgement.
In that moment we can enjoy the beautiful view , while released from the weight of the pouring water.. Instead dancing into the flow of life!

When N - first attended my
Awakened Bellydance session she was nervous, she didn’t know at all what to expect and wasn’t sure, how it would impact her.

After the session she couldn’t believe
how it felt like her sacral bowl ( her sacral chakra ) that she had visualised as a bowl to bring dreams into reality, felt so cleansed.

Her relationship with men completely changed as her body and inner voice let her know when she was being disrespected or was disrespecting her own body.

She no longer wants to allow others energy to disrupt her scaral space, she respects her own body and her own worth.

I'm creating a beautiful unique women’s circle, it birthing will be in just a few weeks time. You to can come and experience the joy of connection, creativity and Awakened Bellydance together.

Comment for more details.

Is anyone else feeling that we are at a tipping point ?
Are you too, feeling like you are at a crossroads and you have a choice which way you will go ?
You know you can continue down that path to chaos and overwhelm, or you can relax, release and relearn ways to to cope and get back on track?
For me it feels like its the time for the last big push to shed old outdated versions of myself, the old patterns and conditioning falling away, in rediness for the charging in of the firehorse energy.

I know I am ! So it feel it really important to not only share my journey with Awakened Bellydance with you all today,

But also for myself to acknowledge and appreciate just how far I've come !

Reminding myself and all of you that its ok to pause and reflect , give ourselves a well deserved pat on the back before taking action but dont get stuck in the story, the what ifs, the how ?

Its the action, no matter how uncomfortable, that moves us forward and creates changes - big or small. E-motion is energy in motion !

All to often we are so good at seeing the change in others, listening , holding space and supporting, cheering them on but we forget that to do that for ourselves to !

So here I am, almost unrecognizable from this past version of me. But I a appreciate and love her so much for bringing me to where I am now.

Would you believe just a few short months before this event, this version of me was living in a completely different reality ?

What part of yourself are you ready to reclaim this year?

Who else is feeling a shift in the energy ?

Do you feel the gloominess of winter lifting ?

Are you ready to start coming out of hibination ?

Yesturday in my group River Sisters Heart Centred Community I talked about how we have trapped energy within our bodies. Sometimes generations of this negative energy, is passed down again and again, and until we learn how to reclaim, alchemise and own it, it remains stuck.

I spoke about

What alchemising actually means

How to do it

What the benefits are for you with the energy of the fire horse coming in

Can you feel the energy shifting ?

Movement is powerful. And the movement I guide you into through with Awakened Bellydance is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.

It is ancient movement, it is sacred movement, it is feminine movement, it is life changing movement.

Women that feel the call to Awakened Bellydance come out of it changed in ways that often cant be put into words !

There has always been an inner knowing that women comming together in sisterhood, have a special kind of power.

Women together in sisterhood, who do Awakened Bellydance, experience the freedom and release just as our ancestors always intended.

This year I have been working on the most beautiful monthly offering and our first one ever is coming up this month!

In this time of Imbolc, may you draw from your deep Well of Wisdom, receive the songs your heart longs to hear, and delve deeply into your creativity

As we come out of the darkness may the growing seeds you planted in the winter bring insight, clarity and understanding.

May you find joy in the coming of spring , and allow your journey to be guided by the ancient wisdom of the goddess.

What ideas, plans, creation or dreams are you manifesting into reality today ?

These are the kinds of words women use after spending time in a shared creative space. Not because anything was fixed. Not because anyone was pushed to share more than they wanted.
But because being witnessed, creating gently, and not doing it alone regulates something deep in the body.

This is for you if
– you feel tired of carrying everything
– your nervous system feels frayed or overloaded
– you crave creativity without pressure
– you miss being in community but don’t want anything intense
This is exactly why I’m holding two gentle offerings right now:

Art Alchemy Circle (online, weekly)
A soft, supportive creative space to regulate your nervous system, express what words can’t, and return to yourself creatively, from home.

Women’s Circle (in person, monthly)
A deeper gathering of women, creativity, warmth, and connection. No fixing. No performing. Just space to be held.
You don’t have to know which one you need yet. You don’t even have to decide today. If your body softened reading this, that’s enough.

Comment 💛 or message me if you’d like more details.

We were never meant to do this alone.
Yet so many women are living as if they have to carry everything by themselves.

The mental load.
The emotional labour.
The expectations.

Yesturday in my group River Sisters Heart Centred Community

I talked about:
– why community regulates the nervous system
– why women need women
– and why trying to “cope alone” keeps us stuck in survival

This is a gentle, grounding space, not another place where you have to perform or fix anything.

To suppirt you on your journey, I also offer beautiful access bars treatments in my holistic space or in the comfort of your own home.

Personal oracle card readings sent straight to your inbox.

Unique healing goddess dolls & heart art

A unique womens gathering and Art space is coming soon !

I spent years believing I should be able to do everything on my own.

I taught myself to be
Be strong.
Be capable.
To be self sufficient
To be independent.

But my nervous system kept telling a different story.

There isn’t a quick fix for “I can do this all by myself.” It’s a journey.

A journey where you keep reminding yourself that it’s not a case of

“What’s wrong with me?”

but instead a case of “Who am I meant to be supported by?”

Community doesn’t weaken me.
It regulates me.

If you’ve been feeling tired, disconnected, or quietly overwhelmed, this isn’t a personal failing.

Society may tell us otherwise, society may pit us against each other, but we aren’t supposed to do life alone.

All set up for another beautiful Access Bars Treatment.
Just one session of Access Bars (45 minutes) has helped my clients to experience:

“Peace and tranquility”

“Deep relaxation”

“Unwinding and clearing of their mind”

“Rejuvination of spirit”

They have left my sessions feeling completely refreshed. This is why this work matters so much to me. So many women I work with, never make time for themselves, and often I’m the last resort when they are absolutely exhausted.

This could be just what you need to change the way you approach 2026, keeping your wellbeing at the top of your list of priorities.
