Spring is stirring here at Temple Wellness 🌿

The skies over Parkmill have turned that clear, hopeful blue and Oh to see the sunshine and feel its soft warmth on your skin. 🩷

The birds are singing as if they know something beautiful is unfolding.

The daffodils are in full bloom, bright and beautiful scattered like little blessings across the land. And soon the valley will be a flowing carpet of wild garlic, its fresh, green scent carried gently on the breeze, earthy, alive, unmistakably spring.

There’s a quiet enchantment to this season in Wales. Not loud or showy just a steady awakening. A remembering. The land stretching, breathing, coming back to herself.
And we feel it too. Such a magical place to be.

✨ The Face Behind the Name ✨

Hi, I’m Helen ,the face behind the business 👋

Before retraining as a therapist, I spent 11 years as a science teacher. I’ve always had a very “science brain” and love problem-solving which is one of the reasons sports therapy suits me so well. But I also have a deeply holistic side, and aromatherapy is where that truly comes alive.

I have now been working as an aromatherapist and sports therapist for the past 10 years.
My passion for aromatherapy began in childhood, making lotions and potions in the garden, and it’s grown into a lifelong love. I have also used aromatherapy to support myself through life’s challenges, which makes the work I do feel very personal and meaningful.

I live back where I grew up, in the heart of Gower, and moved home nearly two years ago.
When I’m not working, you’ll often find me outside with my goats, taking mindful moments just looking, listening, and smelling, properly soaking in nature. You can’t beat those quiet field moments 🌿

Home life is full with two teenagers, two cats, two dogs, and three goats so there’s never a dull day!

I offer a wide range of treatments, always tailored to each individual, because every body and every story is different.

Thank you for being here and supporting what I do 🤍

Between clients at Temple Wellness yesterday I took a nervous system reset with fast water, sunlight, and birdsong.

Not every day is calm.

Regulation isn’t about stopping the flow, it’s about meeting it with awareness.

Try this with me:

Look. Listen. Breathe.

Stay with what’s here in the moment.

Save this for your next reset moment.

I was looking back through old photos and came across these from a Mindful Photography session during my time with Happy Headwork a moment that quietly changed the direction of my life.

I was in a really heavy and isolating season, feeling disconnected from myself, from others, and from the world around me.
Being in nature based spaces like this helped me slow down and gently reconnect to the earth, to people, and to myself.

It was a space where I felt supported and nurtured while moving through some hard things.

A place where it was okay to just be as I was.

The words I still carry with me are:
Perfectly Imperfect.

And that is enough.

If you’re struggling or feeling disconnected, I really recommend taking a look at the courses run by Happy Headwork. They held me when I needed it most 🤍

How many of you have been watching the BBC series The Night Manager? 👀

Did you spot it when Three Cliffs Bay is actually mentioned on screen?

That instantly made me smile because this breathtaking corner of the Gower isn’t just a TV backdrop, it’s very real and very close to home.

Just up the valley from Three Cliffs, in the beautiful village of Parkmill, is Temple Wellness, where I practice my therapies.

Nestled between the winding river, ancient woodland and open skies, it’s a place that naturally slows you down before you even step inside 🌿✨

Seeing Three Cliffs on screen is magical but being here in person, breathing the sea air and feeling the calm of the landscape, is something else entirely. A place for restoration, grounding and gentle reconnection.

Sometimes the most cinematic places are also the most healing 🤍

Harriet, my Moon Goddess Goat 🌙✨
�As we move toward the new moon on January 18th, her energy has shifted once again. Little sideways hops, playful nudges, soft headbutts, and that unmistakable sparkle in her eyes. The same wild joy she carried at the last full moon. It’s as if she’s dancing to a rhythm written in moonlight.

Animals like Harriet are still deeply woven into luna cycles. They feel the pull, the hush, the renewal, not intellectually, but instinctively. While many of us have drifted away from these natural rhythms, guided instead by clocks, screens, and schedules, animals remain fluent in the language of the sky. They don’t need reminders, they remember.

Once, humans lived this way too. The moon shaped our sleep, our stories, our moods, our rituals. Over time, that connection thinned, but the moon never stopped speaking. Harriet reminds me that the bond is still there, waiting quietly for us to notice again.

And there’s a reason for that ancient understanding, the word lunatic comes from the Latin luna, meaning moon. It once described those believed to be touched or influenced by lunar power, a reflection of how deeply people trusted the moon’s effect on life itself.

Maybe I should just call Harriet a lunatic. 🤔 🐐 🌙 ✨
