These are the roses I bought for my breath circle last week. I normally gift each woman with a rose to take home but I didnโ€™t realise that they were bush roses so all interconnected and didnโ€™t want to break them apart. So here they are. Beautiful sacral orange. ๐ŸŠ This colour activates our creative spark. Spring is the season for dreaming and awakening the spirit as our yang energy begins to weave through our bones. Iโ€™m feeling it ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿงก๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿ‹

Itโ€™s ramping up to be a good week. Itโ€™s cleanse time at Vanalife HQ. 9 goddesses committed to healthy living and nourishment. Seasonal foods to support the transition from winter to spring and the incoming equinox. Legs falling off heaters , dodgy doors and crazy energy doesnโ€™t disrupt our flow here.

On the 1st day of the fire horse I would like to share and introduce my new exciting treatment created in Norway whilst on silent retreat.

๐ŸŒน Mother ๐ŸŒน

A two-hour ritual of nourishment, release and remembrance
We begin gathered gently, welcomed with a warm rose elixir โ€” a soft, fragrant infusion to open the heart and anchor you into the sacred space. The petals invite you inward. The warmth reminds the body it is safe to soften.
From here, breath becomes our guide.

Guided breathwork weaves through the room like a quiet tide, settling the nervous system, smoothing the edges of the day, and guiding you back to a steady, grounded calm. Each inhale an invitation. Each exhale a letting go.

Your lower legs are then anointed with uplifting grapefruit and clarifying peppermint โ€” oils that awaken circulation and gently energise tired limbs. Flowing Thai yoga stretches open the legs and hips, releasing held tension and restoring graceful movement through the bodyโ€™s foundation.

We move to the belly โ€” the emotional centre, the place where so much is stored and so little is spoken.
With warm sweet orange and soothing marjoram, a nurturing abdominal massage encourages stagnation to soften, emotions to move, and inner waters to flow freely once more.

A slow, rhythmical massage to the neck, shoulders and scalp follows โ€” steady, wave-like strokes that quieten the mind and dissolve the weight of responsibility often carried there. Thought softens. The jaw releases. The mind becomes spacious.

As your body drifts into deeper rest, we transition into subtle energy work โ€” gentle Reiki and immersive sound healing โ€” allowing the unseen layers to realign, harmonise and replenish.

We close as we began โ€” with rose.
A grounding tincture and a piece of dark chocolate to root you back into the sweetness of your body, your heart, your presence.
Two hours of deep tending.

Itโ€™s been so lovely sharing my insights and vulnerability with my clients in relation to my recent silent retreat. It seems people are very intrigued and interested to know what happens when we dip into a deep quiet space.

Itโ€™s very unique to each and every person. I guess it depends what we carry. What I witnessed was a bunch of folk all on the same inner journey but releasing and expressing in very different ways. There was tears , laughter , screaming ( not me this time ) , dancing , shaking and profound feelings of peace and joy.

Iโ€™m still riding the wave and Iโ€™m so blessed that I have experienced this in this lifetime. Itโ€™s beyond words and most of it pretty indescribable as we dip below our programming and begin to discover a whole new person within. Dharma Mountain is a place that feels like a big warm hug even in minus figure temperatures. The snow a deeper portal to silence. The quiet is another level. The mountains surrounding the land offering their own ancient wisdom.

This week Iโ€™ve been shedding in the way of stuff no longer needed and letting go of material stagnancy.

My next spring cleanse begins on 16th March for 4 days. A complete recipe plan , online support and zoom sessions. Fancy riding this wave with me ? ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒŠ

What silence taught me โ€ฆ
I am very comfortable with silence but not so comfortable with solitude. I like to feel the presence of others. Silence allows the nervous system to REALLY ground deeply. Silence allows a calm like no other and when the peacefulness pervades your body and mind you feel a deep sense of joy. The best kind of joy. Joy from just being. Integration has been harder than I thought. Coming back to a busy environment. Iโ€™ve noticed the stimulation much more. No amount of silence can put a lid on my dogs whining in the car ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ now off to meditate to keep the Norway vibe flowing โค๏ธโค๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธโ„๏ธ
