A New Year's Blessing

May this new year unfold with light and promise.
May your body feel strong, your mind feel clear
and your heart remain open to possibility.

May you awaken with purpose in your breath
and rest at night knowing you did enough.

May opportunity meet your effort,
patience walk beside ambition,
and challenges sharpen you
without ever hardening you.

May laughter arrive often and stay awhile.
May love, old and new, grow deeper, truer.

May you give freely without losing yourself,
and receive fully, without hesitation.

And when the road bends without warning,
may you trust the strength you’ve earned
and the wisdom you carry to guide you.

May this be a year of steady growth,
honest joy, and gentle courage,
a future that feels not only hopeful,
but open and welcoming too.

✨ Wild Art Nature Walks ✨

As we move into this quieter, more reflective time of year, I’m feeling deeply called to slow down, reconnect with nature, and create something meaningful — even if only for a moment.

Inspired by the beautiful practice of 'Morning Altars', practiced by Day Schildkret; I’d love to invite you — my wonderful Healing Space community — to join me on a gentle, mindful nature walk where creativity, presence and nature intertwine.

🌿 What to expect
Over 2 hours, we’ll wander slowly through the landscape, gathering small natural treasures — leaves, stones, feathers, seed pods — and come together to create a temporary piece of earth art. A simple, meditative practice that invites calm, curiosity, and a renewed sense of wonder for the quiet magic around us.

We’ll also pause to enjoy warming herbal tea and light snacks, allowing nourishment and connection to be part of our time together 💚

📅 Dates (Fridays)
• 9th January
• 20th January
• 6th February
• 20th February

⏰ Time: 10am – 12pm
💷 Cost: £15

✨ Book your place here:

If you’re craving stillness, creativity, and gentle connection with nature, this walk is for you 🌲

I’d love to welcome you ✨

Day 25… here we are.

So be wherever you are as fully as you can be. There is magic waiting in the pause and the togetherness and it may be the making of memories you will recall for years to come.

Worry is for another day. But honour your sadness and pull an extra chair.

It’s all love. ❤️

Many merry moments to you x

Happy Winter Solstice - the longest of nights, and shortest of days. The pause in the wheel as the sun stands still before the light begins to return.

It is a magical night. A symbolic reminder that even in the depth of Winter the light of our souls still shines. Hope never fades.

So pause and reflect.
Light a candle, take a breath, and ask yourself:
What am I ready to leave behind?
What do I want to grow in the months ahead?

Feel the light within you burning steadily.

May your home be warm, your heart steady and your next season gently begin.

Blessed Yule Greetings from my house to yours.
With love

Day 10 of my advent calendar.

A midway reminder that none of the stuff matters. It’s all just frosting. Keep your core clear of chaos and focus on the true spirit of Christmas and this season… connection.

(Talking of connection I’ll be signing books and handing out goodies on Tottenham Court Road tomorrow - see you there?)

Day 7 of my advent.

A message so important to me I’m always finding ways to pass it on.

Say it. Always say it…you’ll never regret spreading joy and positivity. But may regret not doing it.

Sow seeds wherever you go, cast your love and watch it grow 🌱🌿

Day 4 of my advent.

It’s grief awareness week and there is always so much to say but this what I was getting through for today. I hope it’s meant for you. And I hope it lands with the love it was delivered. And if it is not for you, do keep reading, there will be something on this page that you need, soon.

Today, can you bring through a memory or tradition that they loved. Can you say their name and let them fill the room around you with their love? And if you cannot, that’s okay. They will meet you where you are and so will we all.

Gently does it. Grief is an unknown entity we are not taught how to survive through. But we will. Together.

Day 3 of my advent of words you need…

There is much pressure to shine this season but the truth is you are majestic in whichever phase you sit. And we must embrace one another in all seasons of life and love.

Some of us are suns projecting light out and some are moons, and so the tables turn, day in and day out. That’s truly quite wonderful. We need one another and we are never alone.

I am going to share these every day ❤️ Donna is such a wise, caring soul and I love her simple, yet poignant poetry 🥰

Day 2 of my Wordy Advent.

And a gentle but firm reminder that if you are trying to achieve perfection this month, you are on an uphill journey to nowhere great.

It is the imperfections, the flaws, and the messiness that create most beautifully lived lives. I see it all the time.

The love lives in the things forgotten because the conversation was just too good. The joy sneaks in when you take a beat from your militant routine to just notice what’s going on around you.

So, for your task today, can you do something imperfectly? Leave something unfinished? Decide not to break your back over a very simple task and instead do it with love and presence and see what happens.

Jot it down, say it out loud, stitch it to the fabric of the universe with intent, and perhaps make a little pact with yourself that you are going to focus more on what’s important this month and less on trying to make everything perfect for an invisible judge and jury.

It’s your life. You’re here to live it. Not show it like a house that’s ready to be sold. Mess some things up and sit with the discomfort. Then laugh it off and put your feet up, my love. That’s the version of you we want to see living their best life.

Advent of Words to live by… ✨

Every day in December I will be posting an advent-calendar-style message you need to hear.

I love a good advent calendar and these days we have chocolate advent calendars, cosmetics coffee, you name it.

I will be bringing you little parcels of comfort, hope, or just a perspective shift to move you out of overwhelmed and back into calm and peaceful.
Or at the very least, grateful: Because the state of gratitude is a powerful thing.

I will also be suggesting a journalling prompt you can carry out to help yourself or a small act of kindness to add to the ripple effect that keeps the whole world facing the light.

(This may seem like a task (and you have more than enough of those) but this will return the energy to you ten-fold in power 🤩.)

It is not easy, this life, even when it is wonderful. We need one another. And we need reminders of the fact that we are not alone, never, ever alone.

This community is a kind one.

What a thing.

Today… give yourself a treat of some kind - be that space from guilt and criticism in your thoughts or an hour of you-time doing whatever fuels your soul.

You are worthy.
