Part 3 of 3
Taking a muggle break over my birthday and Winter Solstice did induce fomo that I was missing out on two power portals of opportunity. No birthday tarot spreads for the year or manifestation rituals. Just me and my journal and as much Sun as I could get on my skin! And I think that was absolutely perfect for this time and place because I was challenged to just be present in this reality I have created in celebration and enjoyment. The only thing that could have made it better would be having more family and community to share in these celebrations, but as I’m out on the road looking for a new place to sink my roots I counted myself very lucky to have crossed paths with those that helped me celebrate this year 💖🙏💫

It’s so easy to get swept up in Spirit Work, Self Development and Healing that it becomes easier to be immersed in other dimensions, energy containers, retreats, the journey, the need to fix yourself, etc. than to just sit with the present. That might be because there is discomfort in the present, or things we don’t want to look at. It might be because we have to show up and be vulnerable or show courage in the face of the unknown. I see so much New Age propaganda around manifestation because it’s the quick and easy fix that doesn’t require us to take risk, but one thing I know for sure is that we have to meet the Spirit World half way and show up for ourselves in this life. It is a blessing and a gift to have this lifetime and I don’t let fear or anxiety rule the show anymore. Instead I commit to show up as the powerful co-creator that I am, making self determined choices, being fully in my power, and being of service because I belong to a rich tapestry of other living beings.

Stepping back into my first day of Spirit Work has been exciting! My Helping Spirits seem to have settled more and I’ve reconnected with an old Spirit Ally that’s really bringing life to my dreaming realms. I highly recommend weaving this muggle time into your calendar year and see what benefits come for you. I’ve already got my next one scheduled for Summer Solstice and New Year 🤩

Part 2 of 3

Without my Spirit Team supports, I was also able to experience where my boundaries were at. Throughout Spirit Weaver training I struggled a lot with boundaries and made it a focus of my personal healing journey periodically. It’s such an interesting, multifaceted area to work on - particularly for women. I was pleased to see my concept of boundaries has shifted from hardcore forced shielding, to curiosity around organic open hearted boundaries.

I think just showing up consistently and listening to my body, my intuition and the hurt parts of myself has helped this shift into an opening heart space. I’ve had to learn to soften and receive, to give myself space and time to regulate and to listen.

Many of us have experienced programming where these more feminine qualities have been shamed, oppressed and not valued. This year I’ve realized that if I can push through those barriers and be in self care and self love, that’s where I discover extraordinary creativity and power. My inner wise woman that remembers the days of matriarchal societies and the power of the Priestess. When I’m embodying my Divine Feminine I don’t need shields because my love and flow of Divine energies is abundant and without end.

My boundaries are still a work in progress, but I’m so happy with where it’s going. 💖🌟💖

I’ve just been on a spiritual/magickal break for the past few weeks during my birthday and the Winter Solstice and it was amazing! I took a break from therapies and self healing too and allowed myself to just be present and be. I hadn’t stopped to smell the Roses since my ancestral trip to the UK last year and I felt like I’d run a marathon!

During this time I held space for reflection on the past year, where I was at present, and what I wanted to see for the year ahead. I celebrated my growth and wins, and nurtured the parts of me that still felt past pain. It took time to really look through the past year and witness the emotional and mental load I experienced, without judgement. And that’s where the gems were that allowed me to see the fruits of my labour - the emotional mastery.

After 10+yrs of CBT and not seeing much shift in my anxiety, it was a relief to see my new combination of Brainspotting, Acupuncture, Body Work modalities, Kinesiology and a whole lot of my own clearing, healing, and self reflection had made dramatic improvements. I also dedicated more time to understanding and researching self regulation and trauma thanks to Caitlin Priday, which has been an ongoing blessing. Spirit Weaver with Ascension Shamanism and Wheel of Transformation with Katie Anderson obviously had benefits in Emotional Mastery too 🙏💖🙌🌟

Sound Healing was something a came to whilst searching for something I couldn’t put my finger on. I wanted to know more about sound as a way of healing my inner wounded musician and as a tool of self regulation for my clients with disabilities that didn’t fit the mold of “music therapy”.
The first training taught me how to use Sound Healing instruments and gave me a basic foundation, but it felt like something was missing. I then discovered Biofield Tuning and was taken by their scientific and research driven approach that gave me my entry point into the energetic body. Again though, there was something lacking.
I didn’t work it out until I began energy training, but the missing part of the puzzle was Spirit. Looking back now I see how I was opening portals and doorways into the Spirit and Celestial worlds with techniques I was taught. I had no idea but feedback from clients who saw ghosts, spirits and aliens during my sessions gave me some indication that I had no control in my healing space. In one venue I visited, the energy circle I created gave me physical symptoms of feeling like I was in a tumble dryer. I now understand the disrespect I had shown the Spirit World by playing on a massacre site without permission.

It’s rare to come across a Sound Healer that has control of their energetic space, control of their own shadow, wounds and energy, and operates from a pure open heart. It’s been a journey for me to understand the power of Sound in this way - as a tool and transmission of Divine energies. There is much division within the Sound Healing community between the science-led and spirit-led that I’ll address in another post.

Amy Bagshaw acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of this nation, and the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

In celebration of NAIDOC week I'll be learning more about First Nations cultures and histories whilst on Gumbaynngirr land.

"This land, with its beautiful rivers, forests, beaches, mountains, creeks, estuaries and floodplains was so bountiful in food and other resources that the Gumbaynggirr were traditionally known by other nations as the ‘sharing people’."

I'll be listening to NAIDOC week playlists, visiting local art galleries celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, and reading and listening to our lands first storytellers.

World Chocolate Day is coming up tomorrow and whilst I love the Plant Spirit of Cacao, I feel very conflicted about acknowledging the day when its the celebration of the introduction of chocolate to Europe in the 16th century. We know that colonisers set cacao as a form of currency back in the 16th Century, which began a series of negative impacts on the land and the Indigenous Peoples who traditionally used Cacao. You can read more about the history of Cacao and Currency here https://theconversation.com/the-history-of-chocolate-when-money-really-did-grow-on-trees-196173

So with this day I'd like to point you in the direction of the Food Empowerment Project. Here you can find out more about the issues surrounding child labour and slavery within the chocolate industry, and access The Chocolate List to find out who is addressing this issue.

In my first grief cycle I was very lucky to be held in a Closing of the Bones Ceremony by Caitlin Priday - a personal ceremony that honoured what came before, moving me through a portal of healing waters and into a new life. It was powerful and inspiring and beautiful. Caitlin holds a nurturing sacred space where its possible to drop the masking and the layers and just be raw, naked and present in her space. Her intuition and mastery in leading me through a shamanic journey of connection and healing with helping spirits and ancestors was amazing - I was in awe!

Over time the gifts of that ceremony have slowly unfurled and the transformation that was required of me to move through that parental grief portal has given me the best opportunity to continue healing, transforming and growing into my own authentic being. I feel truly blessed for the gift of Caitlin's ceremonialist skills and her ability to physically and energetically support our rights of passage be it through birthing and creation or loss and grief.

Caitlin has also supported me in Kinesiology sessions, where her powerful intuition and knowledge of childhood trauma and PTSD really helped me reframe and restructure my healing journey. Caitlin was able to see into the really hurt parts of me that I couldn't recognise or understand. She showed me the importance of connecting to my body and my nervous system to understand when and where I become disregulated, and supported me with strategies to self regulate. Caitlin totally revolutionised my healing game and for that I am so grateful.

Thank you my dear for the laughter, the nurturing, and the deep honouring and healing. I can't wait to see what you do next!

Training with other energy & spirit workers was hard in the early days. I was still deep in processing grief and trauma, so didn't trust my intuition and my anxiety was running the show. I didn't think I had "psychic gifts" and I'd never seen a ghost or a gnome. Its a wonder I stuck it out!
Over time my energy shifted and my consciousness changed. I kept practicing QiGong, attending workshops and classes and changed from talk based therapy (CBT) to a range of practitioners that supported my body, emotions and energy. What really helped me was building trust in my Intuition, which I found with Eloise Fielke Intuitive. Her Psychic Foundations training is designed to teach you Psychic Sense development and Energy Management, but the most special part of her training is the self development that comes through connection to your Intuition, Soul and Immortal Spirit. I started to feel more grounded and centred because I was finally listening to my inner wisdom. The empty husk feeling I'd been carrying for a decade suddenly felt like I was holding something of worth and precious within. The energy management and psychic hygiene rituals became essential as I was better able to decipher what was not mine, and my mental health and wellbeing improved.

I am truly grateful to Eloise Fielke Intuitive for all I gained out of the Psychic Foundations trainings. I highly recommend!

This is my appreciation post going out to Allison Davies - Music and the Brain.
My Healing Arts journey began when I was caring for a lady with Autism and Intellectual Disabilities who LOVES music. I was seeking ways to help her self-regulate with Sound (hello Lord of the Dance CDs) and to my delight was really affective. I've always looked for opportunities to learn more about sound and neurodiversity outside the realms of Music Therapy and *eventually* I found Allison! Oh how I wish it were sooner!
Allison's advocacy, teaching and resources around neurodivergence, neurodiversity and neuro affirming communities has been such an inspiration! She works within a neurodiversity framework that favours deep acceptance and regulation over assimilation and intervention, and shares her lived experience of autism openly in an accessible and grounded way. She honestly gave me hope after decades of poor experiences in disability training, support services and NDIS. I devoured her Music and the Brain course with gusto and am currently working my way through her Brain = Behaviours and Brain Bundle resources.
I've seen time and again the big shifts that can happen with sound and self regulation and I am just so grateful that I came across Allison's work before she makes her pivot into new and exciting projects.

Thank you Allison Davies and the team behind your website https://allisondavies.com.au. I am sincerely grateful to have found you and your work. Blessings on your path and new beginnings 💖🙏➰

A transformational healing journey rarely happens in a neat, ordered, timely fashion. Its often painful and disregulating and we can end up revisiting the same discomforts and challenges multiple times. When approaching any energetic and healing modality, you need to ask:
- Do I have the space and time to integrate my session?
- Is my vessel (my physical body and bodily systems) ready to digest and integrate the spiritual and energetic changes from my session?
- Do I have adequate emotional and mental supports/strategies in place should something shift me into pain and discomfort?
- Am I prepared to meet the Spirit World halfway and continue the inner work?

Spiritual and energetic healing can be messy and destabilising. When booking your session ensure that you have read through the contraindications, and that you have tools and strategies for grounding and regulating yourself. Think about scheduling your session close to your next appointment with your mental health support professional, or GP if you don't feel confident. Spirit Weavers understand the importance of keeping the whole of you in balance throughout a session, but often you shall have some form of self care or processing to do at home. Don't skip over it or exhaust your fresh vigour repeating unhealthy patterns or giving your power away. Build your post-session schedule around activities that are nourishing, embodying and encourage deepening your inner connection.

Honour yourself if this work is not right for you now. As our consciousness and energy changes over time, so too does our resonance for practitioners, healing modalities and services. Trust in the Divine timing.

I've been crystal-crazy for the longest time! The colours, the shapes, the textures, the chemical compositions and the origin story of how they formed have captivated my heart since I was a child - when dad would bring home a fossil, mineral or stone from far away places. So it wasn't a huge leap for me to start working with my crystal collection as soon as I received my first set of tuning forks!
Training with Upper Clarity School of Stone Medicine, has been such a gift of transmission, healing and expansion. Sarah Thomas, LAc, has delivered a wonderful portal of learning where Taoist Stone Medicine is brought to life and finding a new audience with this generation. Here I have learnt so much more about how to apply Taoist concepts of observing nature, soul healing with stones, transmuting entities protocols, working with colours, strengthening our connection to land and water with stones, and much more. The deep soul and consciousness work that happens with Stone Medicine is beautiful gift for the ascension of Humanity and Mother Earth.
I am sincerely grateful to Upper Clarity School of Stone Medicine for launching their teachings online for the broader international community to participate. I watch each video multiples times, always revealing new information and concepts that land with joy and inspiration. I fell most blessed to do this work.
Stone Medicine is a key part of The Healing service I offer, and throughout the year I shall make available other Stone Medicine offerings that are available only to those subscribed through my newsletter.
