The Dias Hill Sanctuary ✨️ Neuroscience meets spiritual alchemy
💔 Tired of living in survival mode? DM to talk 1:1 The dancing, reiki loving, neuroscientist - Lara Dias Hill.

At The Dias Hill Sanctuary we seek to create a space for people and animals to come to feel supported, have a sense of normality and leave feeling empowered. I'm currently studying Neuroscience at University of Bristol and am a reiki therapist. Upon graduation I aim to combine the two, to blend science and holistic therapies. I adore animals and part of my own healing journey has come from welcoming in two beautiful dogs into our family. Their compassion and zest for life has taught me so much. At the moment we currently offering reiki treatments and meditation sessions and will be expanding our therapy suite very soon.

Sick of holly jolly Christmas?

I know last year I didn't give 2 f***s about it. I didnt want a tree, I didnt care about presents. I didnt want to see anyone. Not like me at all. I was brought up in a Catholic household that beamed the Christmas cheer (which made my childhood magical - thank you mum and dad)

Last year, however, I embraced the dark winter nights, the slow grey lingering sunrises and the quiet whispers in the shadows. It changed me. I am grateful for this. I had the chance to see winter from a different perspective which was just as magical.

Don't forget that Christmas is actually quite a recent thing. Honouring nature, circannual rhythms and the bodies inbuilt need for rest has been around forever. Do not be pressured into something that does not feel right.

This year I am dancing between the two and embracing it all.

Stuck on what to buy for someone who already has everything?
Or quietly adding things to everyone else’s wish lists while ignoring your own?

A Reiki and wellbeing gift card is a simple, thoughtful option. No clutter. No guessing. Just time to rest, reset, and feel supported.

✨Who wants these benefits:

• Supports deep relaxation and stress relief
• Helps regulate the nervous system and reduce tension
• Encourages mental clarity and emotional balance
• Provides a safe, non-judgmental space to pause and reset
• Can improve sleep quality and reduce fatigue
• Supports self-awareness and connection to the body
• Helps release emotional or physical tension gently
• Promotes a sense of calm, presence, and overall wellbeing
• Encourages consistent self-care habits
• Can improve focus, patience, and resilience in daily life

It also belongs on your wish list. Birthdays, Christmas, or “I need a break” moments count too.

E-gift cards are delivered at your desired time and can be used towards Reiki and wellbeing sessions focused on calm, care, and nervous system support.

Sometimes the best gift isn’t more stuff - it’s more care.

With nothing to do but think, sneeze and wimper, Im getting creative.

I've decided to lean into the fever hallucinations and dreams and use me accessing that part of my brain to my advantage.

This was swirling my brain during the 3am sweats last night. The whole "New Year, New Me" mantra is, in my opinion, crap. I dont need a new me, I want to know me. I'm not broken or in need of completely changing. I'm a whole person, with quirks, flaws, beauty, joy, humour and a curious mind. Ive been an advocate of this for a while.

I've been on this journey of discovery for 10 years now, and I have already learnt so much about myself, but there is so much more. Also, being honest and open with myself and those around me is my focus. Why hide what makes me me.

Let's see how this creative exercise goes....

The Gap Year Grimoire

#46 Cinema date with the husband

It was exactly one year ago we went to see Wicked. Husband took me on a date night for part 2.

Ate too much chocolate, oh well.

The Gap Year Grimoire

#26 Westonbirt in the autumn

The wooden bridge, the scary crows nest that made me knees go, all the cutest dogs and hot chocolate.

We got a sneak peek at the Christmas lights too.

It was only a matter of time before the body gave in. Sick day spent sleeping on the sofa, smothered in vix, struggling to breathe and feeling like a complete failure.

I've been working 9am - 9pm almost 7 days a week which is not sustainable. I am not glorifying this lifestyle at all. Its hardwork, Im tired, I never see anyone and my brain feels like mush. This is supposed to be my year to recover.

This isnt a sob post, oh poor me, just more of a reflective exercise. Today has given me the brain space to reassess what I want to be doing and what I choose to do.

Im lucky that the husband was home to take care of me. The girls have been doing their part too with all cuddles. There is a Bodhi under the blanket curled up in my lap. They never go far when one of the pack is poorly.

Point of the post, Im a silly goose that never learns...

✨We have 3 spaces left✨

The Tribe of Wild Roses - November Line-Up

This month, we’re cutting the noise and getting real - about growth, connection, and the messy magic of becoming who we actually are. No fluff. No filters. Just truth, a dash of fun, and women connecting.

What’s On:
🍂Monthly Meet Up - 10th Nov
A space for real talk and honest connection. No performance, no perfection - just women showing up and speaking from the heart.

🍂Beaver Moon Meditation - 5th Nov
Under November’s Beaver Moon, we slow down and take stock. A guided meditation and journaling to ground, reflect, and refocus before the year wraps up. Simple. Powerful. Real.

🍂Book Club - Start reading Nov
This month we’re reading The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern - a story about mystery, choice, and the worlds we build for ourselves. Expect deep chats and big feels.

🍂4-Week Course: Fix Your Sh*t - The Dirty Work of Growing Up
Because inner child healing isn’t cute - it’s brutal, beautiful, and overdue.

The Tribe of Wild Roses is for women who crave connection that actually means something.

We’re not here to play small. We’re here to do the work - together.

Podcast Alchemy of the Self - Episode 1

In this soul-expanding conversation, we’re joined by a truly gifted guest - Zoe's Zen Zoo. A psychic medium, Reiki master, reflexologist, and meditation guide -as we explore the deeper mysteries of what it truly means to heal.

Together, we dive into profound topics including:

🟢What healing really is - beyond the physical body
🟢The eternal nature of energy - why it never dies, only transforms
🟢The cycles of reincarnation and the soul’s journey through lifetimes
🟢The importance of embracing both light and shadow to find balance
🟢How trust and surrender open the gateway to true transformation

This episode is an invitation to remember that healing is not about fixing - it’s about remembering your wholeness, your essence, and your connection.

If you’re seeking clarity, comfort, or confirmation that your energy continues beyond this life, this conversation will speak directly to your soul.
