If you’d like to support local businesses this festive season, take a look at the Women Who Business Community Christmas catalogue, celebrating local independent businesses offering everything from gift vouchers and bespoke gifts to natural skincare and homemade bakes.

I’m so pleased that Alvechurch Reiki is featured alongside so many brilliant small businesses. The Christmas catalogue has raised money for Wyre Forest & South Worcestershire Nightstop, helping young people facing homelessness.

Shop small this season, I know I will be. 🎄✨

I want to share with you how I’ve recently found a way to ask for what I need…..

I frequently hold space : 🌀Reiki Share 🌀 Reiki Courses 🌀 Reiki Workshops🌀

There’s a whole lot of practicality (and kit!) that goes around the beautiful space of the day or the event. So much effort goes into setting up and packing away (and womanpower! 💪🏼)

When the event draws to a close and my students and participants want to help me, in the past I’ve got so flustered. If someone else packs my kit away I won’t know where to find anything and when they ask me what they can do to help my slots are so filled up with the task I’m currently doing, I can’t think. If I refuse help and send everyone on their way, I utterly burn out doing it all myself! Sometimes in the past I’ve really disappointed myself by the beautiful day of Reiki we’ve shared together ending with a fluster and a stress.

I don’t let it creep in, because I absolutely adore my students and event participants, but let’s face it : resentment could creep in! Either from them packing my couch away wrong or me sending them away and doing it all myself.

It’s all my issues and I own them! 😆

So I decided recently :

As part of my preparation for the event, I write down on post it’s all of the jobs that can easily be done without me. I make it clear to my students and participants that I’m happy for them just to go home at the end of the day. I guess I’m super fortunate that those present are always, always the helping kind of souls.

It really has been a game changer.

I know what I need and I’ve learnt how to ask for it.

Do you know what you need? Do you know how to ask for it? Reflect on it. It’s worth figuring out xx

I had the pleasure of connecting with the wonderful Amy of Amy Greaves School of Dance recently and I’m so inspired by the inclusive and enriching space she’s created through the classes she offers.

We talked about how dance offers incredible benefits through ways to reconnect with ourselves, be present and fully nurture our wellbeing. It’s about you enjoying something that’s just for you - this all aligns beautifully with what I always hope to offer my students and clients through Reiki.

If you’re local to Alvechurch and looking for a joyful way to move, express and recharge, check out the variety of classes Amy offers. 💫There’s truly something for everyone.💫

🤍I would pick each of them again in every lifetime to have spent these four days with me, deepening our awareness, learning deeply and healing deeply together.

🧡Day one .uk
🧡Day two @ Hopwood Village, where we celebrated our Reiki Master achieving her certificate☺️
🧡Day three .uk

💫Each of them beautifully unique, it’s clear that the flow of students to them will be equally unique.

🙏🏻But each of them united in their authenticity, integrity and dedication.

⭐️It’s been a privilege to witness the cementing of their commitment and the unfolding of the deepening of their understanding of the system of Reiki.

The energy of Tuesday 10th June 2025 was certainly “a feeling” and a very energetic one at that!

The first Beauty, Wellness & Mindset Event hosted by Women Who Business Community and held at the most beautiful venue The Granary, Worcester was nothing short of a success.

I am honoured that I got to lead Guided Meditations crafted to awaken, energise and harmonise those that participated.

I loved getting conversations going about my Reiki offerings as visitors completed the QUIZ and I had a big smile about the lovely lady that won a FREE REIKI TREATMENT with me🤍 I cannot wait to see her and she has booked in already.

I loved exhibiting alongside many fellow women in business such as the inspirational Jo of Flow Holistic Therapy, everyone’s cheerleader to name but a few on our beautiful beamed space on the top floor.

I loved exploring what other businesses exhibiting had to offer and really touched that I won ’s prize draw! 🥳

Huge huge thanks and kudos to Lisa Lloyd for unflappably pulling it all together and making it happen, whilst also making sure I wasn’t nervous for my offerings. You are an absolutely legend Lisa xx

The incredibly talented Vanda Szabo Photography took these stunning photos and many, many more!

See you at the next one? It was free!….
