Day 17
No way do I want to post today, but I've committed and so I follow through! ✨
God is rerouting me right now. 🙏
Things in my world are feeling unsettled and I'm having to really step aside from fuelling the uncertainty with fear, and trust that something bigger is unfolding that I can't quite see yet!
In the past 24 hours I've been navigating my car breaking down, plans pivoting, and having to move out of our flat without warning due to coming across severe mould 😭💔
A couple of days ago, I posted about listening when land calls....
I don't yet know where I'm feeling pulled, but I do know that I am being pushed well and truly out of my comfort zone. 🫣🌸

Day 15
On this day 3 years ago...💛 Desert dreamscape.
Egypt feels strong in the field at the moment. Many people seem to be being called there right now to walk with the God's and Goddesses, anchor the light and remember the ancient ways.
It's fascinating how land speaks and calls like that.
The next few years are set to be huuuuge energetically.🌀🌈
These are most certainly the times for deep listening and following the whispers of the heart, even if it doesn't make sense just yet. ✨

Day 13
My baby girl is 6 months old tomorrow and I'm not okay. 😭💔
It's so cliché, but it truly goes so fast! Nothing can prepare you.🌀
I've been scrolling through all my pics of her for the past hour, a complete mess.
Motherhood is wild. I barely recognise myself in snaps from those early days. Fumbling my way through the enormity of it all, grieving the loss of my dear grandma just a week before I gave birth, and trying to process the rapid change of plans and sense of Self.
This year has been a paradox. The hardest and the holiest year of my life!? I have walked through so much pain, grief, loss, sickness....
And yet woven through it all is the ever expanding love of my daughter. The greatest blessing I have ever known.❤️
I am softened. Stretched. Undone... and becoming stronger, more boundaried and fierce in new ways. 🔥
We've decided not to share our daughter online.... So here's some pics from a cute bump shoot with 💛

Day 12
I'm not typically an anxious person, but there's something about the cocktail of postpartum hormones, too much caffeine, the massive love and responsibility I feel for this tiny, perfect squish, the fear of fu***ng it up, the overwhelmingly overwhelming uncertainty of the world, plus the Schumann spikes and cosmic soup....that's had me experiencing anxious states more frequently of late. 😅🤪
Forever grateful for simple yet highly effective breath practices that I can draw upon to bring myself back to centre.
4-7-8 breath was a firm favourite today. It aleviated an anxious flurry I experienced in a tricky moment whilst out and about.
Inhale 4
Hold 7
Exhale 8
Aaaaaand breathe 💛

Ohhh my goodness it has been so hard to show up today!
The last few hours have felt like a series of tiny but frustrating events, testing me to see how centred I can stay when nothing seems to be flowing.
I literally reversed into a bollard earlier (both my car and the bollard are fine 😂) but it's a perfect metaphor for the day and the number of bumps along the road I've had to face.
I feel like days like this sometimes happen when you are on the precipice of a breakthrough. I feel like I am breaking through lots of old patterns and programming at the moment. Making huge personal leaps with some tricky things that have kept me cycling and stuck for a while.
I could have given up, thrown in the towel and got sucked into the micro-annoyances that my day has held, but I actually felt happy witnessing how well I let it all wash over me and stayed in my lane.
Learning to meet the bumps with grace. 🙏

Day one...let's goooo 🔥
The book I mention is Fawning by It's one of the best books I've read on C-PTSD and healing the nervous system. It's been absolutely revelatory for me. 🙏

Our darling daughter is here!
Willow Rae arrived on Easter day ☀️🤍
I'm still lingering in the bliss bubble—taking things slowly, one day at a time. Savouring the pause, every squishy cuddle, and the boundless love for this perfect, precious soul. 🥰

A year ago, I was living a carefree South Goan adventure—drinking fresh coconuts, cruising through the jungle on the back of my partner’s Enfield, taking sunset dips in the ocean....Fast forward to now, and wow... what a difference a year makes! 🌀
I’m so close to meeting the precious starbeam I have longed for my whole life. My days are filled with nesting, cooking, learning, and preparing for the most powerful of initiations—motherhood.
I knew that feeling life grow within my womb—being the living portal between realms—would challenge me and the spiritual concepts I’ve held. But nothing could have prepared me for the depth of trust and surrender required in this life-altering pause between my old, maiden self and the mother I am becoming. 💓
Pregnancy is a mental marathon, revealing the places where I’ve struggled to fully trust myself, my power, and my body. And with birth on the horizon, I know this is only the beginning—the shedding, the evolving, the deep service to life that I must bow to and flow with.
The honour of all honours.
We cannot wait to meet you, my precious little love. 🤍

We can put a lot of pressure on ourselves at this time of year to have our next steps and map of the year all 'figured out'...
Permission to pause and linger in the liminal that little bit longer 🌀
I have a perpetual internal dance between wanting to be seen and step more fully into more of what I know I have to share, and the strong need to pause, retreat and let deeper integration and introspection work its magic first.
There is no rush.
Each winter I find it easier to lean into my need for a lot of solitude and self care, trusting that the cyclical impulse to act and create will return again.
For now, I am savouring the solitude before my world expands in love and responsibility and I become a mother. 🤍
What is it that your heart deeply desires right now?
This time of year can be a great time for an energetic tune up with bodywork, to support shedding the layers of holding that aren't serving you and allow more of your truth and light to emerge. ☀️

Loveliness 🌹
I have some extra availability over the holidays. 🎄
More daytime hours, and a couple of dates in the fuzziness between Christmas and New Year.
In the season of giving, be sure to fill your own cup too! 🤍

I've been keeping a little something under wraps...
Soooo excited to be welcoming our precious babe, due Spring 2025!🐣🤍
I have been blessed to feel incredibly well through my pregnancy so far, and as long as that continues, I have every intention of offering my treatments until March, before taking some months off to be present with my new family, and all that motherhood brings. 💓

It's ok to pivot. 🙏
I was supposed to be hosting my RESET half day retreat yesterday with my good pal , and had been really looking forward to it!
About two weeks ago, the most peculiar thing happened.
I had a totally random intuitive hit and vision, that if I went ahead with the day retreat, I would have to cancel it as I would get unwell. Literally a minute later, I received a text from one of the attendees saying that they would no longer be able to attend as something had come up.
In the following 24 hours, 4 other attendees sent me messages saying that unexpected life events and circumstances had arisen...
It was bizarre!
So instead of pushing or forcing.
I listened.
And accepted that for reasons far beyond what I could know, it wasn't meant to go ahead as planned for that particular day.
Although I wasn't ill yesterday, I was unusually tired and spent pretty much all day sleeping and listening to my body's need for extra rest. ☝️
As an intuitive, I'm still learning to trust what comes, even if it doesn't make sense, and even if my ego mind wants to intercept and let pride get in the way.
I hope to set a new date soon, but I just wanted to remind you that life has its own rhythm, and often, the best path forward is to trust in the flow rather than resist it.
Following your intuition is a practice and it's ok to back track, pivot and honour your inner nudges even if there isn't a tangible reason for it! 🤍

I grew up in Bristol and recently returned to this vibrant city after spending the past 5 years living abroad, most recently in Canada.
I offer Holistic/ Deep tissue massage and Reiki sessions. I can travel to you and set up in the comfort of your own home, or from a treatment space in North Bristol.
Massage is a beneficial way to enhance your physical and mental well-being. It is good for the mind, body and soul!
I work holistically- working together with my clients to create a bespoke massage tailored to your individual spiritual, emotional and physical needs. I believe this integrated healing approach provides a deeper level of relaxation and rejuvenation, by investigating the root cause of tension and holding a space which enables you to heal yourself more effectively on all levels.
I have always been interested in health and wellness and our bodies amazing, innate ability to heal itself. For the past 7 years I have been on my own healing journey, exploring yoga, nutrition, meditation and other health practices.
In 2015 I began learning Reiki, eventually becoming a Reiki Master. Reiki is a type of energetic bodywork where a powerful flow of positive energy is transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the client in order to encourage emotional or physical healing. Working with the bodies Chakra system (energy centres) I intuitively place my hands on the affected areas of the body that need a boost. It can bring deep relaxation and comfort to a stressed-out, tired body.
Studying massage seemed like the most natural vocation for me to step into. Following from my interests in alternative therapies and my active lifestyle- with yoga, snowboarding, weight training and cycling being an important part of my life. I have regularly invested in massage and first-hand felt the benefits of massage for recuperation and a greater sense of embodiment. I have attained a Level 4 Diploma in Holistic Massage from Bristol College of Massage & Bodywork- one of the most highly regarded massage schools in the UK.
