Sunrise Stillness
Saturday 16th August,2025
Seaton Carew beach, down the steps from the Norton Hotel
7am for 7.10 start

In our fast paced modern lives every second of every day is usually full !
But by making time to take some time to invite moments of stillness into our lives we allow ourselves a chance to invite in peace, calm and reduce stress .
Stillness allows us to reconnect with our inner wisdom, our intuition, our inner voice . It anchors us in the present moment.
You will need a mat or a chair on which to lie or sit, a blanket, a pillow, warm clothing and a drink .
No experience is required. All we ask is you come with an open heart and an open mind☀️☀️☀️
This is a free event.
This week we will be allowing the universe to hold us whilst we allow allowing🌀

“Every time I think I am healed, another wound whispers beneath my skin, another memory rises like smoke from the ashes of old versions of me, but maybe healing is not a destination, maybe it is the brave act of walking through your own ruins and still planting flowers.”
✍️ R.M. Drake

Another beautiful morning on the beach .
An early dip in a very calm, chilly sea. Followed by Sunrise Stillness, allowing the sound of the lapping waves to renew, revitalise and cleanse. Then strength training and the regular 8am dip .
Thank you to each of you who joined this morning to invite some calm, some stillness and gifted yourself space to breathe and be.
The card for the collective this week was chosen by Sharon .
From the “Conscious Spirit Oracle Deck”, by Kim Dreyer.
Spark of the Divine.
“I reignite the Divine spark within me and recognise I am part of all Creation”.
Reminding us that we are all Divine beings, interconnected, not separate. That we all need to take responsibility for our own thoughts, words, actions and choices . Inviting us to deepen our connection to the natural world.
Have a peace full week 💕

Many of you have joined the distance healing since it began , way back in March, 2020 lockdown.
It began as a means of supporting clients when we were unable to work 1-1. Since those early days it has gradually gathered steam and reaches around 30 people each week , many more people than I ever imagined . After much soul searching I have decided the time has come to step away from the distance healing sessions.
I would like to thank each and every one of you for sharing this journey and am very grateful to you all .
Please continue to make the time to take time for your self care. Give yourself space to breathe and continue your healing journey . 💖

From todays distance healing.
Working on bringing our self into balance .
The heart chakra is not just the chakra of unconditional love, self love, joy and forgiveness . It is the chakra of balance . It is the 4th chakra and acts as a bridge from the physical to the spiritual realms . The centre of balance for our masculine and feminine , our balance of giving and receiving .
The heart chakra anchors our energies allowing us to be safely, securely anchored in the physical world so we might grow, expand and explore the spiritual world safely. When our heart chakra is balanced it allows us to develop a deeper knowing of our place in the world.
💚💚💚

Distance healing on Thursday at 2pm ?
Working on returning to balance.
Our heart chakra is not only our centre for unconditional love, joy and forgiveness but is our chakra of balance . Connecting the lower chakras, connected to the physical world, and our upper chakras, connected to the spiritual realms .
Suggested crystals include rose quartz, mangano calcite, rose aura quartz , amazonite, jade and watermelon tourmaline . As ever, any crystal you feel drawn to use . 💚
If you feel drawn to connect with this session please add your name in the comments below 💚💖💚

Thank you to all the PHENOMENAL Women who landed on the beach this morning to be reminded just how phenomenal they are .
Thank you to the phenomenal sisters Julie and Susan for a collective card pick for the coming week .
Ganesha from the “Gaia oracle “ deck, Toni Carmine Salerno .
“ Clearing away obstacles, Protection, Guidance “
Reminding us that we are clearing our path of obstacles in order to move forwards. All the obstacles we have faced brought us lessons that encouraged us to change and grow . The affirmation reads “ I am protected and guided by a higher power. When the path is blocked, I take this as a sign to wait. I give thanks for divine intervention. When the path is clear I move forward with ease. All that occurs or does not occur is for my highest good. “
Have a phenomenal week 🌀

This is beautiful 🦋

Some days I feel whole,
as if the pieces of me fit together without question,
smooth edges, steady breath,
a quiet sense of belonging within myself.

Other days,
I am a mosaic of what once broke me,
shards of memory,
fractures that still ache when touched.
But maybe that’s the point.

Maybe it was never about erasing the cracks,
never about pretending the wounds
were never carved into my skin or spirit.
Maybe it’s about honoring the way
the light still finds its way through,
how it threads its golden fingers
into the broken places,
turning scars into stained glass,
and pain into proof
that I have survived.

For even in the fragments,
there is beauty.
Even in the breaking,
there is transformation.

From today’s distance healing .
Today we focused on reclaiming our power . Not so we have power over others but in order to take control of our own lives .
Power is not about forging forwards, power lies in our ability to adapt, to change, to grow rather than remain stuck or stagnant .
Reclaiming our personal power allows us to show up fully, authentically, unapologetically as yourself .
Reclaiming our power allows us to recognise our worth, speak our truth, set healthy boundaries and embrace our uniqueness .
Our crystal empowerment team included citrine, sunstone and copper . Overseen by the empowering Haru, The Summer Solstice Dragon .
