Beautiful ❤️

"The Healer Between Heartbeats"
They say the hummingbird came from the breath between worlds — too fast to be caught, too gentle to be feared.

She appears where pain settles quietly, where the air holds memory. Her wings do not fight the wind — they weave through it, stitching together what was torn by time.

The elders believe she carries the voices of those who left too soon. Not to speak for them, but to remind us: love never leaves, it just changes shape.

Her feathers shimmer with stories. Her flight is a prayer.
She doesn’t stay long. Healing never does.
But where she lands, something begins again.
They call her Teyána — The One Who Touches Without Bruising.

🙏🙏Please message me with the image you’re referring to, and I’ll gladly send you the poster link!

A 'new' and ongoing offering I am inspired to share now. Imagine a Divine Intentional Evening for yourself and your close sisters.
(Or a morning! How about 'magic for breakfast'?!)
You and I will co-create a plan, perhaps with some surprises for your guests, according to your delight. It can be as playfully sacred or deliciously deep as you wish it to be,
Investment is negotiated according to numbers of participants and your desires for the event.
Start by sending me an email with a brief outline of the kind of intentional space you wish to create, what the gathering is for (to grow your connection, celebrate a birthday, etc) and how many women you see attending, and we can chat....
If there's something you would like that I can't offer professionally, I probably know someone who can! Shared leadership, including with yourself, is a rich possibility.

A very happy and blessed Spring/Autumn Equinox to you!

I love this image, the creator did not leave their name to it, but it spoke to me of an old world crumbling, and the path to the new.

Day and Night are in balance. I feel I am constantly finding the centre, again and again, as energies impact us. Last night there was a literal earthquake, moments after a conversation about the Navigator, about realigning humanity, about the need for 'course correction'. Everything feels very potent. Strong connections with deep and intentional people are abundant in my life, and I also feel like I'm coming home to me again, so there is an 'aloneness' in that.

Trauma and Compassionate Inquiry have been strong themes lately in my relationships, but recovery from trauma has been my path for a very long time now - I could say 27 years, I could say a lifetime... My work excites and inspires me always, because I KNOW we can move the energy of trauma out of our bodies and hearts. I know too, that revealing and embodying our true selves, is a life long process, one that gets better and better.

With love, I wish you connection to yourself, to your balance, to your breakthrough and your people. It is a perfect day for a ceremony to honour, not just the great turning wheel of life, but the unfolding of YOUR life. Blessed be. 😍

Do you believe it? In these challenging times, this is what guides me, my homing beacon, the bright future I see. To have clarity of purpose, to bring your gifts to light, is what we need to make it real. The Shift Is Happening. Make yours conscious, and your life becomes an offering.

Update:
Due to the uncertainty around road closures etc, I've decided to postpone the weekly sessions till after the school holidays, but I'm still reeeeeally looking forward to Saturday 24th September.

Spot the difference? One is a whole day, for women. The other is a 6 week course on Thursday evenings, for anyone. Both in Golden Bay, but I am also keen to create a group online if there is enthusiasm. The intent is the same - delicious and divine, playful engagement in expanding consciousness, and group connection. Email me for all the info: tania@taniamarsden.com

Feeling out of sorts?
Try my thing!
That is, put on some flower p**n, mute the talking, play your preferred music instead, and allow the colours and shapes and creativity to adjust your energy. Aaaaaah....

I've been luxuriating in time this turning of the seasons, as I'm not organising our community Matariki celebration, for the first time in 4 years! Slowing down, connecting myself and Nature again, I've been exploring the edges of my world. Here's a little glimpse of Cape Farewell, the Northern most area of the South Island of New Zealand. And the gorgeous storybook coat I had made by the lovely Amy at Twisted Stitches. Perfect for wandering along hilltops at the edge of the great wide ocean. It was a gorgeous Quest of Recharge. (Cos, wearing hooded garment = 'on a quest', if that's what you want to feel like!) But we are not all on the inward turning, leaf falling point of the wheel. Who is here that is heading towards midsummer, I wonder?
