When you want to get better, but...

December can be beautiful and busy, but you matter too!
Remember to pause, protect your energy, and choose what feels right for you. Look after yourself during the silly season!
If this season feels heavy, take it gently: you are seen. Rest is not selfish - it is essential to your well-being.
With love.

𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆:

𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒕𝒐 𝒏𝒆𝒖𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒛𝒆 𝒏𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 3 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒕𝒆𝒔.

Anxiety, anger, frustration, doubt…

They can rise quickly and feel overwhelming if we ignore them.

Try this 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝘁 you can do anywhere, anytime:

• Pause and take 3 long, slow breaths through your nose, breathe out slowly through pursed lips.
• Roll your shoulders back and unclench your jaw.
• Place one hand on your chest and one on your belly while you breathing.
• Name the emotion silently: “I feel anxious / angry / frustrated...”, and breathe into it 3 or 4 times. On the last outbreath, blow out the air with a big sigh and empty your lungs as much as you can.
• Then start breathing slowly and deeply again.
• Tell yourself gently: “I am safe. This will pass. I am centered. I am grounded.” Repeat this for 4 or 5 breathing cycles.
• Roll your shoulders back, shake it all out and be aware of how much more relaxed you feel.
• Do this as often as you need/can.

In just a few minutes, your nervous system begins to calm down, your mind clears, and you regain control instead of your emotions controlling you.

You have more power than you think!

December often rushes by in a blur of commitments. But are you giving your own health and well-being the attention and space it deserves?

With these December specials running, it is the perfect time to create space for yourself now, or to prepare for the new year with a clear intention: to make your health and well-being a priority, and feeling lighter, clearer, and more aligned.

𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢 – 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓!

As we approach the last Full Moon of the year, Gemini’s airy, quick-moving energy sweeps in like a breeze through the mind, helping us wrap up 2025 with insight, clarity, and a renewed sense of perspective. This is a Mercury-ruled Moon, drawing our attention to the 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 we have been repeating throughout the year and inviting us to choose, consciously, which ones will accompany us into 2026.

You may already be feeling the shift. This Full Moon brings movement on all levels: 𝘀𝘂𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀, 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝘂𝗻𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴. At the same time, the Sun, Venus, and Mars travel together in Sagittarius, stirring something deeper: 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵. The balance between Gemini’s curiosity and Sagittarius’s wisdom becomes the theme: thinking and feeling, facts and intuition, detail and big picture.

There is a karmic undertone woven into this lunation. Old patterns of thinking or communicating may surface, not to unsettle you, but to be acknowledged, gently released, and 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱. New information, subtle messages, and surprising insights arrive to help you see your life from a fresh angle. With so much mutable energy in the sky, life may feel somewhat changeable, and that is exactly the point. 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆.

Full Moons are always moments of culmination: where the unconscious becomes visible, where effort meets illumination. When the Moon stands opposite the Sun, we feel the pull between our inner needs and our outward goals. A Super Full Moon heightens this even more: 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹.

This December Full Moon completes a trilogy that began in October. It is a closing chapter emotionally, mentally, or spiritually. Adding to its significance is its place within a rare cycle called the Major Lunar Standstill, causing this Full Moon to rise higher and appear brighter than usual. Symbolically, it lifts our perspective, encouraging us to see the bigger meaning behind the journey we have walked this year.

Gemini teaches us something powerful: 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲. Change the narrative, and new doors open. This Full Moon encourages a deep, honest inventory of the thoughts, beliefs, and mental patterns that have shaped your year. It shines a light on the gap between who you have been and who you are becoming, and gives you the courage to step across it.

This is also a socially attuned Moon. Insight may arrive through a conversation, a book, a message, or a seemingly random moment of synchronicity. Stay open. The universe loves to speak through the ordinary.

With the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius, we are working with both ends of this axis: detail and meaning, logic and intuition, communication and truth. These signs remind us to keep an open mind, ask better questions, notice our default thought patterns, and allow new information to reshape our understanding. They teach us that wisdom is not fixed: it grows as we grow.

Those with strong mutable energy (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) may feel this lunation more intensely, with major clarity arriving around direction, identity, or next steps.

As the Full Moon rises on 4 December 2025, something in you reaches 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Something becomes 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿. And something is 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻.

May this Moon bring you clarity of mind, softness of heart, and the courage to choose a narrative that reflects your highest truth.

With love and gratitude.

We all carry tender places within us… those quiet spaces where old hurts still echo.

Sometimes they show up as defensiveness, shutting down in conflict, anxiety when others are upset, or a deep need for reassurance. These reactions are not flaws. They are signals. They are your system saying, “Something here needs care and healing.”

Our triggers often reflect unresolved pain: criticism, abandonment, perfectionism, neglect, rejection, comparison, unsafe environments, even urges to eat or binge. And so much more.
In my practice, we work with these patterns in a gentle and non-invasive way.

Through the therapies I work with, and the deeper coaching processes I use, we identify where these blocks sit in your system, emotionally, neurologically, energetically, or physically.

When we find the root, and introduce a better neurological option, something powerful happens: your mind and body gain a new reference point.

A new option.
A new choice.

Instead of reacting from old wounds, your system learns to respond from a place of safety, clarity, and empowerment.

This is where true healing begins: when your subconscious and conscious mind finally align with a more supportive way of being.

If you feel ready to understand your triggers, soften old patterns, or create healthier emotional responses, I would love to walk this journey with you.

Your healing does not have to be hard. It just needs to be supported.

Book a session or reach out if you feel called. Your next chapter can be lighter. You deserve that.

As we are about to close the Snake year and prepare to step into the year of the Fire Horse - according to Chinese lunar calendar - it is essential to understand the shift in energy we are walking through.

The Snake taught us to shed, soften, release, and see ourselves with new honesty.
The Horse asks us to rise, clarify, focus, and move with both freedom and direction.

These are not opposing forces. They complete one another.
The Snake clears the old skin.
The Horse carries the new version of you forward.

Use these energies intentionally.
Honour what you’ve learned.
Clarify where you’re going next.
And let this transition guide you into a more aligned, empowered, and heart-led 2026.

Save this post for when you need a reminder of who you’re becoming (Penni Shelton).

✨ Finding Balance from the Inside Out ✨

I recently had the privilege of contributing to a magazine article on one of my favourite topics: finding the balance within.

In a world that constantly pulls us in every direction, true healing begins when you reconnect with your body, your mind, and your emotions - and allow them to work together again.

In my practice, I bring together a range of modalities, such as Specialized Kinesiology, BodyTalk, Stress & Trauma Release, and Life Transformation Coaching, to offer a unique, comprehensive and holistic approach to your health and well-being.

Each session is designed to look at the full picture of your life, gently addressing what is out of alignment so you can return to a place of clarity, ease, and inner balance.

Whether you prefer a single balancing session to re-centre and reset; or feel called to a longer, more transformative journey, I offer a selection of programs and packages to support you as you come home to yourself.

Some sessions can also be done online or remotely, making healing & transformation accessible no matter where you are.

If this speaks to you, reach out and let us explore which option feels right for you.

Through Specialized Kinesiology and BodyTalk, we gently uncover and balance the emotional, mental and energetic stresses your systems have been holding. When the body's communication opens up again, digestion settles, the nervous system softens, and you feel more at ease from the inside out.

If your stomach - or any other discomfort in your body - has been calling for attention lately, why not book a session?

Your body is always trying to guide you back to balance - you do not have to do it alone.

Welcome to the 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐢𝐨 - a time for 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧!

The New Moon in Scorpio, on the 20th November, opens a deep doorway into your 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗲. This is not a surface-level moment. Scorpio invites you to 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 the places within you that have been whispering for attention; the 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵𝘀 you feel in your bones, the 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 that rise up when you finally stop running, the 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 you believed you had already outgrown.

Under this New Moon, the 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 run intense and undeniable. You may crave 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 more than ever. Small talk, half-hearted connections, and pretending you are “fine” will feel impossible. Your soul is pushing for something real… and for many, that comes with the unmistakable nudge to change something meaningful.

This lunation activates a 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁. Thoughts or emotions you thought were “settled” may resurface, to be released, not to punish you. When Scorpio calls, it is because something inside is ready to be 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗱.

The cosmos whispers: “𝑆𝑙𝑜𝑤 𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑛. 𝐿𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑛. 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑡𝑟𝑢𝑡ℎ ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢.”

With so many planets travelling through water signs, your inner world is louder than the outer one. Themes around 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁, 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗰𝘆, 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆, 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀, 𝗿𝗲𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀 may rise. Let them. These feelings are not setbacks, they are signals. You are shedding what is outdated and reclaiming deeper self-honesty.

And then… there is Uranus.

Uranus, the awakener, sits opposite this New Moon, shaking loose what you have outgrown. 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘀. 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. 𝗨𝗻𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀. 𝗦𝘂𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆. 𝗔 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗱. 𝗔 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱. If something cracks, it is because more light wants to enter. If something falls away, it was never part of your next chapter.

This New Moon does not require force. Only honesty. Only presence. Only the willingness to meet yourself where you are.

You are not going backwards.
You are releasing.
You are renewing.
A 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 is quietly taking form.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬?

𝟭. 𝗚𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱. 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱.
Scorpio is a water sign, so work with the element. Showers, baths, swimming, or simply listening to water can help you process and clear your auric field.
𝟮. 𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.
If you feel nostalgic, sensitive, or drawn to re-examine old relationships or memories, do so gently. You do not need to reopen wounds, only understand the wisdom they left behind.
𝟯. 𝗚𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲.
Uranus may shake your foundations a bit. When things feel unstable, pause. Breathe. Ground. Whisper: “I choose what aligns with my truth.”
𝟰. 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀.
Retrogrades (Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus & Neptune!) pull us backwards so we can retrieve something meaningful we left behind. Ideas you once abandoned may suddenly feel alive again. Look at them with fresh eyes.
𝟱. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀.
Not everyone can meet you in your depth. Discernment is an act of self-love.
𝟲. 𝗪𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲. 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁. 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲.
Journal what you are ready to let go of and what you want to welcome in. Scorpio loves ritual: even the simple act of naming your truth holds power.

𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐝𝐨𝐦:

This is a rebirth.
Just as the scorpion sheds its skin, you are shedding an emotional layer that no longer fits who you are becoming.

Ask yourself:
• How have I transformed since last year?
• What has quietly shifted inside me?
• What part of me is ready to emerge now?

Even if things feel intense or uncertain, trust that 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴. You are not who you were, and that is something to honour.

This New Moon encourages you to step beyond your fears, loosen your grip on the past, and open yourself to a more authentic way of being. Some truths may be revealed, but they serve your evolution. Some changes may feel sudden, but they create space for your next level of inner security.

You do not need all the answers.
You only need to meet yourself honestly.

So…

Be gentle with yourself.
You are navigating deep waters, but you are also discovering new parts of your own strength, wisdom, and resilience.

Let this New Moon be your reminder that every ending contains the seed of a beginning, and that you are ready for the next chapter.

You are rising, even here.
You are healing, even now.
You are becoming, beautifully, unmistakably… 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳!
