Returning home from a couple of days of solo retreat, guided by the gentle and strong snowdrop whose head is now piercing the earth, and supported by the vastness of sky and the presence of water and the wisdom of fire.

Retreat gives me different things at different times, normally I don’t know exactly what I need but I know that if I create the space and let myself settle in, what needs to arise will arise.

This time the theme that arose was around friendship. I needed to make friends with myself again, knowing that the friendship I have with myself is the foundation of friendship I have with others.

I return with a stronger back and a softer front - more aligned with myself, and more open to the world.

Sharing a little news on this gusty day…

šŸ“£ I’ve made the decision to move on from Portobello Natural Health and land fully at KnotStressed. PNH has been a really important place for me on my journey as a massage therapist and I’m so grateful to my clients there and to the other therapists.

But now Knotstressed feels like the right place so that’s where you’ll find me, and a very lovely place it is too.

To book with me you just need to go through the knotstressed website (link below) and select either deep tissue or holistic/swedish massage (p.s. I’ll soon be adding pregnancy and hot stones massage to my toolkit) and then you should find me in the list of options.

Saturday 4th January
Saturday 18th January

Since I don’t have another Instagram account I’m using this one to share about my other work which is at the wonderful - a worker run wholefoods shop in marchmont.

In the last few days we have launched a big crowdfunding campaign to help us fund our vision of a shop refit and online shop/cargo bike delivery service around Edinburgh.

We have made it through the multiple crises of the last few years although it hasn’t been easy at all. Now we’re looking to the future and visioning a shop and workspace that is more sustainable for all, as well as expanding into cargo bike deliveries to serve those in Edinburgh who aren’t able to come to the shop. We want to grow into a thriving future.

New leaf embodies an alternative reality that gives me hope in this increasingly crazy world. It is a reality based on co-operation, community and good ethics right the way through, from soil to workers (including ourselves).

Have a look at the beautiful video made by my colleague Jules at the top of the crowdfunder page, and read on for more info of our vision as well as an insight into how we run the shop as a workers co-operative and the history of the co-op.

We will be so grateful for any support you can give, whether in money and/or by sharing with those you know who might be interested.

Thanks for reading, sending new leafy love as the leaves on the ground become crisp with frost ā„ļøšŸ‚

So beautiful to read these words, it feels very special to be able to offer this work and to feel its effects. The more I practice the deeper my belief in the powerful impact that massage has on health, in the oldest and most holistic understanding of health for body mind and spirit.

I’m fully booked next Friday and away the Friday after that. So next available sessions are on Friday 18th October @ 3pm, 5pm & 7pm.

On Friday 25th October I’ll be offering sessions earlier in the day rather than later @ 9am, 11am & 1pm

And that’s me switching off for the weekend, I’ll be relaxing with my homies and walking in the woods with friends (and hopefully having a dance tonight). Sending out autumnal blessings and slow weekend vibes šŸ‚

Back from retreat, eyes and heart full of Scotland’s beauty, rejuvenated by daily loch swims, re-inspired to walk the path of awareness and liberation, and with new pathways of understanding the fascial system of our bodies. It all weaves into my practice as a massage therapist, this is the foundation.

Currently lapping up this incredible sunshine in Edinburgh, feeling a bit non-communicative with the sunny sleepiness, so finding it a struggle to post! But here’s my remaining availability for the rest of the month anyway…

This Friday @ 3pm
Next Friday @ 3pm and 7pm

Bookings also open for next month and ahead.
