🧡 HAPPY BELTANE 🧡
Here in the North of Scotland tonight is the night to connect to the energies of fertility, new beginnings, growth and abundance, which are celebrated during the Celtic Fire Festival of 'Beltane'.

Traditionally on the night towards the 1st of May big bonfires were lit to honour the return of the God 'Bel'. According to folklore he makes the sun grow stronger each day until its peak at Summer Solstice and allows all in nature to grow into the glorious bounty we desire to harvest this year. Wishes made during this special night and spoken out loud before leaping over the flames are said to come true.

Even if you don't have a bonfire tonight — or if you live in the Southern Hemisphere and are heading towards winter — make a wish, set an intention, dream of a project and see what will happen in the coming weeks...

May all your dreams and wishes come true!

Happy new beginnings! 🧡

UNPOPULAR TRUTH... You Are Not Always Tired. You Are Often Disconnected

We keep telling ourselves we need more sleep, more rest, more time to recover. Sometimes that is true. But often what is exhausted is not the body. It is the deeper self that has been living too long without nourishment. A life stripped of meaning, wonder, truth, and authentic connection creates a fatigue that sleep alone cannot touch. You can rest for hours and still wake up feeling empty.

What many people are experiencing is disconnection. Disconnection from nature, from stillness, from creativity, from honest relationships, from purpose, from their own inner voice. The nervous system was not designed for constant noise, endless performance, and relentless consumption. A mind crowded by distraction and a life built around survival rather than meaning will eventually produce a spiritual exhaustion that masquerades as burnout.

The remedy is not always retreat. Sometimes it is reengagement. Time in nature that reminds you of scale and rhythm. Silence long enough to hear what is true beneath the noise. Adventure that wakes dormant parts of you. Honest conversations. Meaningful work. Moments of beauty. Freedom from what keeps shrinking your spirit. These are not luxuries. They are forms of nourishment.

So perhaps what is needed is not more sleep. Perhaps what is needed is awakening. To stop moving through life half conscious, half present, half alive. To reclaim what makes you feel deeply connected to being here at all. Rest your body, yes. But also revive your soul by living in a way that brings you fully awake.

UNPOPULAR TRUTH... Growth Is Not About Becoming Better. It Is About Becoming Coherent

Shedding the old is not aesthetic. It means confronting what you have avoided, sitting with parts of yourself you would rather reject, and choosing to engage them without distortion. This is not indulgence in it. When you meet your own shadow with clarity and compassion, you are not excusing behavior. You are understanding it well enough to change it.

Listen, everyone is on a different trajectory. Different history, different patterns, different constraints. That is why comparison is not useful. You are responsible for your own process. Not fixing others. Not managing how they evolve. Your responsibility is to recognize where you are misaligned and correct it. That is where change actually occurs, at the ground level.

However, growth is often misrepresented. It is not constant ease or positive emotion. It involves discomfort, contradiction, and repeated adjustment. You learn, apply, fail, reassess, and continue. Acceptance is not passive. It is accurate recognition of what is present without unnecessary resistance. That is what allows effective change.

The outcome is increased freedom. Not because conditions become perfect, but because your responses become more stable and aligned. You begin to see patterns clearly, extract lessons, and apply them. Over time, your experience improves because your decisions improve internally and outwardly.

✨ Menopause Workshop; A New Woman Rising ✨

✨Are you going through menopause or feeling pre-menopausal?
Would you love to understand more about what’s happening in your body and how to support this powerful transition naturally?

✨Having been through it myself, I truly understand. Menopause can feel exquisite and challenging all at once. It’s a time when the masks begin to drop.

✨Your taste for food may change.
You no longer want the same things you once did.
You may feel more exposed… yet more empowered.

✨There is contradiction, freedom, discomfort, and awakening all woven together.

✨I believe menopause is the rise of a woman’s power.
A new woman is emerging from within.
What has been repressed for so long now wants to be expressed.

The self-abandoning stops and that can feel unsettling when others no longer recognise who you are.

But you do.

We change. We unfold. We rise.

🌿 Join us for this nurturing and empowering workshop, where you will experience:

✨ Acupressure points to help ease common symptoms
✨ Facial Reflexology techniques for balance and wellbeing
✨ Natural skincare support during this transition
✨ Tracey from A Positive Reflexology sharing insight into common menopause myths
✨ Elaine from Hillistic Yoga guiding a gentle Yoga Nidra
✨ A deeply relaxing sound bath to restore and soothe
✨ A warm, supportive space to connect with like-minded women

Come and join us for an uplifting and restorative experience.

📩 Message me for details or to book your place.

🦶Yesterday I took pictures of my feet to support a charity called ‘Soles supporting souls’ they help provide shoes to places in the world where they are needed.

🦶I see so many feet in my practise doing Reflexology but I hardly get to see my own, especially in this way!! I do find feet fascinating!… did you know that every line has a meaning?

🦶When I touch feet I touch into the person’s energy. I feel energy and organs and biology in a quantum way. We are fractals of the divine and our feet can take us into beautiful spaces, literally and metaphorically .

🦶If you haven’t experienced Reflexology, I invite you to visit my practise at home. You can choose between Face or Feet Reflexology. These practises are ancient and it can support us on our journeys in so many ways. bringing awareness to ourselves with compassion and kindness.

🦶I have some availability in May. Check my website at www.mayaholistictherapies.co.uk
