New Moon.
Fresh Start.

🗓️ 21 October

The New Moon marks a time of quiet beginnings. A blank page, ready to be written on. This lunar phase is perfect for planting seeds for the month ahead, setting intentions, and reconnecting with your inner self.

Why the New Moon matters:
When the moon disappears from view, its energy is said to support reflection, clarity, and the creation of new intentions. It’s a natural moment to pause, exhale, and ask yourself where you want to focus your energy next.

🌿 Holistic Rituals to Align with the New Moon

* Slow Down & Reflect
Create a calm space. Soft lighting, a cosy blanket, warm herbal tea. Give yourself permission to do nothing but be present.

* Journal Your Intentions
Use this time to get clear on the goals, dreams, or habits you want to cultivate this lunar cycle. Journal prompt: “What new beginnings am I ready to welcome?”

* Set the Mood
Light a cleansing candle or diffuse essential oils like rosemary + lemon to refresh your environment and symbolically clear away the old.

* Mind–Body Connection
A gentle reflexology session can help ground your intentions. Focus on calming reflex points, especially the solar plexus (to centre), adrenal glands (to ease stress), and diaphragm line (to deepen the breath). This helps your body shift into a more open, receptive state.

* Create a Personal Ritual
Pull an affirmation card or build a mini vision board. Choose something that reflects the energy you want to bring into the coming weeks.

The energy of the New Moon is soft but powerful and a reminder that even in darkness, growth begins below the surface. This is your invitation to breathe, reset, and plant the seeds for what’s to come. 🌚

🍁🍂🍁🍂

As the weather shifts and the air gets cooler, our immune system works harder to protect us from seasonal colds, flus, and fatigue. One gentle way to support the body during this transition is through targeted reflexology.

For immune support during autumn, key reflex areas often focused on by reflexologists include:

💨 Lungs & Bronchial Reflexes – supporting respiratory health as seasonal viruses increase.

🧠 Solar Plexus & Diaphragm Reflexes – calming the nervous system, which plays a crucial role in immune regulation.

💧 Lymphatic System Reflexes – encouraging lymph flow to help clear waste and support immune response.

🦠 Spleen & Thymus Reflexes – both of which are integral to immune cell production and defense.

🧂 Adrenal Reflexes – supporting the stress response. Lower stress can mean stronger immunity.

✨ Why this matters:

Chronic stress can suppress immune function. Reflexology has been shown in some studies to reduce perceived stress and promote relaxation.

Gentle stimulation of reflex points may support circulation and lymphatic drainage, which are essential for immune system function.

Reflexology sessions are often experienced as deeply calming, and rest is one of the best immune boosters we have.

🦶 Practical tip: Even a short, self-applied routine focusing on the solar plexus point (found in the center of the foot beneath the ball) can help activate the parasympathetic nervous system and create a moment of calm in your day.

Want to strengthen your seasonal wellness routine? A reflexology session can support your body’s natural defenses and help you feel more balanced this autumn. 🍂✨

✨Thank You for an Unforgettable Weekend✨

Our annual Members’ Event was more than a gathering. It was a celebration of learning, sharing, and connection. Across the weekend we witnessed inspiring talks, lively discussions, new skills learned, and countless moments of support between colleagues and friends. There was also fun, laughter, dancing and the joy of new friendships forming.

A heartfelt thank you to every attendee, speaker, volunteer and organiser who helped make it such a success. Your presence, energy and generosity created the warm, uplifting atmosphere we all felt.

Here’s to taking the insights, connections and renewed enthusiasm from this weekend back into our practices and communities, and to building an even stronger IRI family together.
