Serenity Way

21/12/2025

As the longest night wraps the world in stillness, we’re invited to pause, soften, and listen.
Midwinter is here, which means the light always follows.

A reminder … that even in the darkest season, guidance is present and nothing is truly alone.

Winter Solstice is a powerful moment for Reiki: to release what no longer serves - to honour the cycles of rest and renewal - to welcome the returning light within and in our natural world.

May you feel held, grounded and gently guided as the wheel turns once more.

Blessings 💫

What does Reiki feel like?

💚Sensations of warmth or heat are frequently reported during Reiki sessions. This warmth is often felt in the areas being treated or in the hands of the practitioner, and it's associated with the flow of energy.

💚Sensations of energy pulsing or flowing through the body are also reported. It might feel like waves of energy moving through different areas. Some individuals describe feeling tingling sensations, like gentle vibrations, as Reiki is administered.

💚One of the most common reactions to Reiki is a deep sense of relaxation and calm, akin to a deep state of meditation.

💚A feeling of lightness or expansion is also often reported. This might involve a sensation of energy spreading out beyond the physical body. Like a breath of fresh air for your spirit.

💚 During a session, individuals may experience emotional releases such as tears, laughter, or feelings of profound peace and contentment.

💚Reiki can quiet the chatter of the mind, bringing a sense of mental clarity and inner peace.

💚Some people report seeing images, colours, or experiencing visualizations. These experiences can range from seeing bright lights or specific hues to intricate patterns and symbolic imagery.

💚 Not everyone feels distinct sensations during Reiki. Energy is subtle, and sometimes things are happening on deeper levels that may not necessary manifest as an noticeable external reaction. Perhaps a few days or weeks later you may feel calmer or less reactive to something that really bothered you before. Or you notice a general improvement in your overall well-being and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. Trust the Reiki energy to do what is needed. 😊💫

News update - of a gentle realignment … 🤍 🤍 🤍

Serenity Way has moved. 🏡

I painted this tiny picture of my home several weeks ago …it felt perfect to use for this post as a small way of honouring the calm and caring, handmade nature of the space and energy work, that I love. 🌼

I listened to quiet guidance, to intuition, to Reiki energy …
and brought my practice back home.

Here, light falls softly, breath slows and nature is near, always.
With warmth, with peace, with candles that softly glow, you will be held in a safe space.

Thank you to everyone who has followed me on my Reiki journey and to everyone I was lucky enough to meet in Darlington.
I appreciate every single one of you.
You are all amazing and inspirational to me. 🙏🏻

Welcome to the next chapter. 🤍 💫 🤍

Now taking appointments for weekends and evenings.

Be kind to your mind 🤍 x

Be Kind to your Mind

Your mind is not a puzzle to be solved,
Nor a task to be completed.
It is a field, wild and growing,
Sometimes tangled,
Sometimes blooming.

It holds the storms you never told anyone about,
The late-night spirals,
The endless loops,
The ache of “What if?”
And “Why not yet?”

So give it grace.
Give it room to breathe,
To break down and rebuild,
To forget what no longer fits,
To remember what still matters.

You do not have to be your sharpest every day.
You do not owe the world clarity
When your soul is calling for quiet.
Rest is not weakness.
Stillness is not failure.

Be kind to your mind.
Speak gently.
Let the thoughts come and go,
Like waves finding shore.
Not all of them need answers.
Some just need space.

You’re not falling behind.
You’re healing.
And healing,
Sometimes,
Looks like doing nothing
But holding yourself
Softly.

Every soul comes to this earth with a purpose — and some bring light through even the deepest shadows.

Hugsy Brightheart and the Missing Star is a beautiful book, written by young, local author Daisy Mathison, who lost her beloved dad, when she was only three years old.

This book is Daisy’s way of helping other children — and the child within us — reminding us all, that even in grief, we are held and that stars never truly disappear … they become part of us. 💫

Daisy’s words carry a vibration of comfort, connection, and hope.
This book is a gift for any heart that has known loss, and is ready to receive gentle healing.

I feel honoured to have met Daisy and her wonderful mum and hope you can support them too.

You can support her light and share her message through the links below. Highlight to link direct. 🙏🏻

With love, with energy, with heart.
