Awakening your inner wisdom is a journey of reconnecting with your intuition and trusting yourself deeply. Take a moment today to breathe, listen, and feel. Your inner guide has always been there, ready to show the way. ✨

05/12/2025

Life has a habit of pulling us in a dozen directions at once, clients, family, appointments, admin, messages, expectations… and in the middle of all that it is so easy to forget the simplest truth:

You deserve to feel calm.
You deserve to feel peaceful.
You deserve to look after yourself.

This week’s affirmation is more than a pretty phrase. It’s a gentle nudge back into alignment. It reminds you that caring for yourself is not an afterthought; it’s a resource that fuels everything you give to others.

🌿 Calm is not something you “find” it is something you return to

Calm lives underneath the noise.
Underneath the to-do lists.
Underneath the pressure you put on yourself.

You don’t need the perfect setting, the perfect day or the perfect conditions to access it.
You simply need a pause long enough to hear your own breath again.

A one-minute moment of presence can reset your whole nervous system.

PEACE is a choice, not a luxury

Peace isn’t the absence of challenge, it’s the presence of grounding.
It’s what happens when you step out of overwhelm and back into your body.

Every time you whisper the affirmation, your mind gets a signal:
"You’re safe. You can soften. You don’t have to hold everything right this second."

For holistic therapists especially, women who are constantly holding emotional space for others this is vital. You can’t pour from a cup you’ve forgotten to refill.

Looking after yourself is an act of leadership

When you demonstrate self-care, your clients notice.
When you honour your energy, your business feels the difference.
When you treat yourself with compassion, your work becomes richer.

SELF-CARE isn’t selfish it’s professional.
It strengthens your intuition, your focus, your resilience and your ability to serve.

A gentle invitation

Take a moment, right now, to put a hand on your heart.
Breathe in slowly.
Let your shoulders soften.

Repeat, quietly or aloud:
💛 I am calm. I am peaceful. I am looking after myself. 💛

Then ask yourself:
“What is one thing I can do today that future-me will thank me for?”

Let the answer be small. Let it be doable. Let it be yours.

Feeling Grateful – GHP Holistic Health Awards 2026

I am absolutely delighted to share that I’ve been recognised as the Best Holistic Emotional Wellbeing Mindset Coach 2026 (Devon) by the GHP Holistic Health Awards.

This award means a great deal because it reflects the heart of the work I do every single day, supporting people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, stretched thin or disconnected from themselves to find balance, clarity and confidence through the power of mindset, energy and healing.

Holistic wellbeing isn’t just a “nice to have” anymore. It’s become essential.
In a world where so many are juggling the demands of work, family, ageing parents, financial pressures, shifting identity, menopause, and the exhaustion that comes from always being “on”… having access to tools that regulate the nervous system, rewrite limiting beliefs and reconnect us with our inner resilience is life-changing.

I am deeply thankful to every client, organisation and community who has trusted me to walk alongside them on their wellbeing journey.

Here’s to continuing the work of:
💛 Restoring balance
💛 Releasing emotional blocks
💛 Building self-trust and confidence
💛 Rewriting old stories
💛 And helping people feel more themselves again

Thank you to GHP for honouring the many ways holistic practice supports modern life and thank you to my community for allowing me to do the work I love.

Samantha 🙏💛

The final full Moon of 2025 is visible in the night sky tonight and it's known as the 'Cold Moon'. It signifies winter is truly here, and Christmas is on the way.

It is time to review your life and start to make changes. A good time to start decluttering your body, mind and home. Let go and release anything from past events or patterns that are still triggering you. Write down on a piece of paper all the things you want to let go of and then burn them, if you can't cut up or shred them.

Spend time out under the moon tonight asking to to help you let go.

Some days your nervous system just wants to be held gently — no rushing, no forcing, no pushing through.

So today, give yourself the gift of slowing down.

Take three deep breaths.
Feel your shoulders soften.
Let your jaw unclench.
Let your mind stop sprinting ahead.

Repeat this affirmation like a soft mantra in the background:
✨ I am calm, I am peaceful, I am looking after myself. ✨

You deserve to feel supported — by your own presence most of all.

So often when things don't feel right we tend to focus on the negatives and get caught in a downward spiral but you have a choice so let's reframe it to "I choose to focus on the positives in my life" and see how you feel today as you repeat this and apply it.
