Touch, sight, smell… and so many memories 💛
Fabrics, scents and images sparked stories, feelings and connection in the most beautiful way.
From childhood memories to distant dreams 🌍
A truly powerful session.

A really special visit to New Forest Nursing Home this week 💛 I began with a couple of beautiful 1:1 sessions, offering reiki, hands-on healing and massage. The sessions are gentle, calming moments of connection and care.

Our group Sensory Session explored touch, sight and smell, and it opened the door to some truly meaningful conversations and memories.

The fabrics sparked powerful reminiscence…
🩷 Pink reminded one resident of handmade cloths her mother used for vases on windowsills
🧡 Orange brought back memories of her grandmother’s rug by the fire, “a make do and mend person, like me”
💛 Yellow felt like a raincoat by the sea
❤️ Red was a fancy ballgown that neither of us had
🧱 A picture of the Great Wall of China stirred deep emotion for one resident, she couldn’t quite explain why, but she knew she wanted to go there.

Essential oils added another layer, some bringing calm, others a refreshing minty lift 🌿

A truly interesting and thought-provoking session, showing how sensory experiences can unlock memory, emotion and connection in such powerful ways ✨

I've been away for 10 days holidaying with family 💓 visiting my parents, sister and nephew in London, then Wales camping, and then Burley with the scouts. Exhausting but fun 🔥

Such a lovely morning at the New Forest Nursing Home beginning with 1:1 sessions offering massage, sound healing and gentle connection 💛

We then came together for a group movement and music session, enjoying uplifting tunes, gentle movement and shared moments of joy. It was wonderful to see everyone engaging in their own way, whether through movement, rhythm or simply soaking in the atmosphere 🎶

A beautiful balance of individual care and group connection ✨

🌞 What a beautiful day at Merceode Merceode Lodge Care Home the sunshine was out and residents were enjoying time outside together.

I joined them in the garden and offered mini 1:1 massages, bringing a little extra relaxation and care while everyone soaked up the warmth of the sun.

Such a simple, special afternoon, fresh air, connection, and moments of calm 💛

🌞 An amazing morning at New Forest Nursing Home 🌞 Such a bright and beautiful place to spend the morning.

I began with my 1–1 sessions, offering massage, sound healing and reiki, with some lovely chats along the way, including horses and even sharing photos of my cousin’s huge Irish Draft! 🐴

Then it was time to lift the energy with a group session, dancing to Motown, waving scarves and shaking maracas 🪇

And to top it all off, Umber popped in for a Helpful Hounds visit, saying hello in the lounge and soaking up plenty of attention before lunchtime.

A busy, joyful morning full of connection, movement and smiles. ✨
