So…my surgery was cancelled again this morning.

And I’d be lying if I said I didn’t immediately go into
“is this a sign?” mode.

Because here’s the thing…

I have been feeling a huge push pull with this journey and have been struggling to w**d out how much of it is down to my anxiety - which is a massive challenge for me around hospitals and surgical procedures, how much of it is that I try to manage things holistically as much as possible, how much of it is fear driven by trauma and triggers around historical experiences 🤔

I have found myself in a loop of “I don’t want to have this surgery” and “But I need this surgery”…🤯…perhaps turning off my intuitive thoughts and handing my power over to one way of proceeding.

Last Thursday as I prepared for round one, I pulled a card before heading to the hospital and this morning, before going in again… I pulled the same card: Temple of the Rose 🌹

Twice.

Now I’m not here to say “the universe is telling me not to do it”… (well I did go there a bit 🤏) I am however listening a little more closely.

Maybe it’s not about stopping
Maybe it’s about slowing down

About asking:
✨ Is this fully aligned for me?
✨ Is there more to explore in my healing?
✨ Am I looking at the whole picture, not just one part?

With my history of back issues and everything being connected, it’s definitely made me pause and reflect, have I explored this as a whole body/whole system matter?

And the answer is no - not extensively.

Sometimes the nudge isn’t a full redirection…
it’s just an invitation to become more conscious in the path you’re already on.

So that’s where I’m at today.
A little disappointed ✔️
A little emotional ✔️
Very relieved ✔️
But also…curious

I am going to take an active role in what comes next, reclaim my inner wisdom and voice; not passively wait for the next letter or call.

If anyone knows of any TMJ specialists that I could explore for dislocating jaw issues - please DM me 🙏🏻 oral osteos etc 🫶🏼

Thanks to you all for your lovely messages along the way - it has meant so much 🤍🫶🏼🤍

I wanted to share a little update with you all.

I am having surgery on 26th March, so I’ll be taking a pause to rest and recover afterwards.

If you’ve been thinking about booking a 1–2-1 session before then, I’ve opened a few final appointments on Tuesday 24 March:

✨ 10:00am
✨ 11:30am
✨ 1:00pm

These are the last appointments available until the week commencing 20th April.

In terms of group sessions:

The Redbourn Soundbath on Friday 17th April will be going ahead ✔️

However, the St Albans Soundbath on Sunday 19th April will be cancelled, as there are currently no bookings and I’d like to give myself the space to ease back into work gently after surgery.

The next St Albans Soundbath will now be Sunday 17th May 7:15-8:30pm and is open for booking now.

Thank you, as always, for your kindness and support. One of the things I try to share in my work is the importance of listening to our bodies and honouring rest - so I’ll be doing exactly that for a few weeks and taking a dose of my own medicine 😉

With love
Emma 🤍 xx

A day to celebrate women, yes…
but also a moment to acknowledge the
weight many women carry - and the
injustices many women are facing globally
right now.

International Women’s Day holds many layers.

A celebration of women 🤍
our strength, our tenderness, our resilience,
our understanding and respect for one another.

It is also a moment to pause and acknowledge
the deeper truths many women carry - as unimaginable as much of that may be.

Across the world right now, many women
are living through unimaginable hardship and injustice. And for many of us, that awareness sits heavily on our hearts 💔

So this gathering will hold both.

A space for rest.
A space for gentle connection.
And a moment where we can come together
and hold a shared wish for greater peace,
safety and compassion in our world.

Gathering with intention matters.

To honour the day, I’m offering 10% off my
March Soundbath in Redbourn.

✨ Friday 20 March | Redbourn Parish Centre
✨ 7–8:15pm | £25

Use code IWD26 at checkout for 10% off.

Come exactly as you are.
Lie down, breathe, and be held in sound.

Love to all the incredible women I am blessed to know, and an invitation to each of you to join me today in a pause. Take a moment to breathe and hold a shared wish & intention for peace and justice in our world ☮️

If you’re new here, a warm hello -
I’m Emma 🤍

I thought it was a good time to reintroduce myself to welcome all you lovely new followers to my little corner of social media.

So, before this chapter, my world was dance.
I performed and taught for many years, living in and through my body.

It was my instrument,
my expression,
my home.

Over time, life invited me into a very different relationship with that body.

One that wasn’t about performance,
but about listening.

About understanding how our experiences live within us.

And after navigating trauma, illness, injury and the slow process of rebuilding, I came to understand something deeply:

The body holds what we live through -
and can only begin to soften when it finally feels safe.

Sound.
Energy work.
Gentle movement.

These became steady companions for me
and remain my anchors.

Not trends or aesthetics,
but quiet, reliable support that helped regulate a nervous system that had spent too long in survival.

They helped me feel more at home in myself again, and somewhere along the way, this work began 🙏🏻

Now I hold calm, grounded space
where nothing needs to be performed or
perfected - a bullsh*t free, honest and non judgemental space.

Hǣlan means to make whole -
not perfect,
but whole, sound and well.

Healing isn’t something done to you.
It unfolds gently when you are ready and
feel safe enough to do the work.

It’s not linear and isn’t always pretty.
The way to the other side is through it…
whatever that is for each individual, and I
am here for that…

The raw.
The authentic.
The highs, the lows and everything in between.

If you’ve found your way here because
you’ve carried a lot…
or because you’re looking for something real rather than shiny…

You’re very welcome here 🤍

A place to pause.
To breathe.
To gently come back to yourself.

My daughter got into the car after school today and gave me a daisy chain 🤍 a reminder that little things and small gestures can mean so much.

I am sure she didn’t think for a minute that it would have made me feel so happy, but it really did 🤍 🌼 🤍 plus the sun hat her hat on ☀️ xx
