Reiki 1 Training 7/8 March ‘26

A quiet, grounded introduction to Reiki, taught slowly and with respect for both the tradition and individual timing.
The emphasis is on presence, learning to listen, sense, and allow stillness to do the work.

This training tends to suit those drawn to depth, simplicity, and inner alignment.

If this resonates, you’re welcome to get in touch.

Strange how sometimes our past returns in unusual ways. In 1994 I photographed Denise Johnson, for her single; Rays Of The Rising Sun. She was one of Manchesters finest singers who at the time was with the band Primal Scream. She sadly died in 2020 shortly before the posthumous release of her final album. I found out today the order of service at her funeral service used the cover artwork from that photo shoot back in 1994 ❤️

Our Thursday morning Qigong group at The Retreat New Forest does seem to luck in when it comes to the weather. We shared a spectacular November morning barefoot on the grass, building our resources and resilience for the winter ahead. 🙏🏻

November’s Elemental Shift

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, November marks the transition from Metal to Water from refinement and release to stillness and restoration.

Metal teaches us to let go, to strip things back to their essence like autumn trees surrendering their leaves.
Water invites us inward… into quiet reflection, soft replenishment, and the deep stillness that nourishes new life.

This shift reminds us that we are not separate from nature, we move through the same cycles of letting go, conserving, and renewing.

As we enter the season of Water, where might you welcome more rest, softness, or reflection into your practice and your life?
