It’s new moon time, around 10.57 tonight, and the cycle begins again.
It’s the time of the month you’re more likely to need rest and quiet time, even more so if it coincides with your inner winter (that’s those days you’re on your period)! If you’ve been tracking your cycle for a while you may know where the two cross over and how that impacts you.
I often get asked how people on hormone contraception can use cycle tracking to help them understand themselves more - I always say the same thing - follow the moon! Use today, the new moon day, as your day 1 and track your energy and mood each day just as you would if today was the first day of your period.
Want to know more about cyclical living and starting to track your cycles?
I’ll be running a totally free webinar on Tuesday 13th December at 8pm - DM me if you’d like to be there!
When people say they aren’t affected by the moon….
….they’re joking, right?!
In fairness, I didn’t always pay attention to where the moon was, I didn’t know anything about cycles and cyclical living.
I DEFINITELY didn’t think the moon had any impact on me AT ALL!
I knew people who worked I childcare would say “oh it must be a full moon, the kids were wild today!” But I thought it was a joke 😂
Our bodies are made up of so much water. The moon controls the tides - it influences water.
It influences us. Whether you notice it or not.
When I started following the moon cycles, I learnt there were patterns to how I felt and how much energy I had that mirrored moon energy.
When I started tracking my own cycles those connections became even clearer, so much so that I can spot the subtle differences of where the two cycles intersect.
If you’re not tracking yet, start simple. Each new moon and full moon write in your journal - how do you feel on those days.
Cyclical living doesn’t have to be complicated. Start small, keep going and your self awareness will continue to expand 🧡
Do you notice how the moon impacts you?

You know those days when there’s a never ending stream of people and a whole lot of annoying questions and statements and expectations?
When you’re sensitive at the best of times, those days are WAAAAYYYY too much 😂
People wired like me DEFINITELY need to prioritise time to ourselves.
Or we end up looking like something like this 😂

It’s full moon day today, in case you hadn’t noticed the crazy energy out there!I definitely have - when the moon is in *my* sign it always seems to kick my butt 😂
Grab your journal, a pen and a cuppa and take a few deep breaths.
Then spend a few minutes answering these questions.
What’s coming up for you?

At first, cycle tracking feels like a chore. But before long you’ll start to see the patterns emerging.
The physical act of taking a minute out of each day before bed to write down three things is hugely powerful and will help you ground yourself into your body before bed.
1. What day of your cycle are you on?
2. How much energy do you have?
3. What one word best describes your mood?
In time, you’ll notice the regular peaks and troughs in your energy, and then you can use that knowledge to your advantage! Plan the busy stuff for high energy weeks and no more beating yourself on the days you just need to rest!
Where are you today?

Some people come to see me for an energy healing - in these sessions I bring a range of tools from different traditions including Usui Reiki, Seichem and Tera-Mai Reiki.
Some people come to see me for a tarot reading - something that helps them to better understand what’s happening around them and the choices they have.
But why choose just one? Book an appointment for BOTH!

My haters favourite comments and messages and how I usually respond….😂
Just don’t come for cycle tracking - that can help anyone who menstruates, no matter what their beliefs are or where they are in the lives when the find it.
Try it!
Each day, make a note of what day you’re on, how much energy you have and your mood. You’ll soon start to spot patterns - then eventually you can learn to work with them, instead of fighting your natural rhythm.

Energy work looks and feels different to everyone, no two experiences are the same.
Cynics will says it’s all our heads, but there are studies out there that say it DOES work and IS real - that it’s better than a placebo.
If you’re feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, it could be just the thing you need to help shift that feeling and move you back towards alignment.
The benefits can be huge, powerful and immediate, or gentle and slow, depending on what you need and what your body can tolerate.
Benefits include things like:
⭐️Relaxation
⭐️Clearing the causes of imbalances
⭐️Generally balancing your energy
⭐️It can help to reduce pain
⭐️Greater clarity on your path
⭐️Better sleep
⭐️Reduces stress/tension
⭐️Reducing fears
⭐️Stronger connection to your higher self
⭐️Generally improves wellbeing

I’m *always* talking about how cyclical living can make a huge difference to managing your energy - working with it instead of fighting against the natural ebs and flows.
Energy healing is another amazing tool to support keeping your energy balanced.
The other thing that’s really helped me?
Exogenous ketones.
I’ve been drinking them almost daily for about 4 months now and the difference has been incredible.
It’s been a bit like a lightbulb going on for the first time in a long time.
The claim from the ones I drink is that you go into ketosis in 59mins. And you don’t have to follow a strict keto diet to do it.
I’ve tested myself fairly regularly and found that hour claim to be true - I’m in ketosis pretty quickly after drinking the ketones.
Then I stick to a low carb (but not keto) diet most days.
Still get to have pizza and Prosecco at the weekend, then back in ketosis the next day with another drink!
There’s lots of research out there that says a keto diet can help with lots of things - it’s hugely helped me.
I still get tired and have to be mindful of my energy.
But more often than not, it’s “normal” people tired, not absolute exhaustion.
So yeah, keto and exogenous ketones are staying in my life for the foreseeable. I’d be mad not to when they’ve helped me so much!

What happens when you don’t get to rest properly during your inner winter (the time of the month you bleed)?
Things feel A LOT more exhausting, patience goes out the window, brain fog can kick in….
But it’s life - sometimes it just isn’t possible to take time out during those first couple of days.
Work, children, caring responsibilities- things like this don’t stop no matter what time of your cycle you’re in.
So how do you handle it?
Each hour or two, take a few moments out (lock yourself in the bathroom if you have to!) and just breathe.
One hand on your heart, the other on your stomach
Deep breaths
Arrive in your body
Acknowledge how you feel
More breaths
Then get up and do The Next Thing on your list.
Those pauses might just be enough to recharge you until you take some proper time for yourself 🧡
How do you stay connected when life is busy but you need rest?

Things I regularly get asked about energy healing (and yes, I know I look ridiculous in this one, but it was fun to make 😂)
☀️Doesn’t it make you tired?
Nope, it doesn’t make me tired. I’m just the channel for the energy you need, you’re not getting mine, so it’s not a problem 😊
☀️Will I feel anything?
You could feel lots, or you might not feel anything. There’s no right or wrong, so don’t worry. Just go with it and see what happens!
☀️Does it actually work?
Yes!! It’s basically magic, but yes it works. There’s even some science-y studies out there that suggest it can help.
☀️Want to give it a try? Message me!

Start tracking today!
It doesn’t have to be complicated!
Just make a note of three things each day
1. What day of your cycle are you on? (Day 1 is the first day of your period)
2. Is your energy level low, high or somewhere in the middle?
3. Is your mood good, bad or something in between?
That’s it!
Over time you’ll begin to spot the patterns emerging.
✅ the days your energy is highest
✅ the days you know you’ll need to rest more
✅ the days you like being around people (and the ones you don’t!)
✅ the days you’re most creative
✅ the days you’re virtually unstoppable!
Once you know that, you can begin to live in alignment - work with your energy, don’t fight it 🧡

Nobody intentionally sets out to feel overworked, overwhelmed and stressed out, but it happens.
It happened to me. With hindsight I can see how it slowly built up before I got sick, crashed and burned, but it felt like it happened almost overnight.
Now I’m in tune with my body, working with my energy rather than fighting against it, feel joyful and fulfilled (most of the time at least!) and am unapologetically me.
I support women like you to move from feeling overworked and overwhelmed to aligned and at ease through energy healing, soul led guidance and reconnection with your cyclical nature.
I specialise in clearing and aligning your energy, calling back lost soul fragments and creating space and clarity to create a life you truly love.
Are you ready to try? To find your peace again?
I’d love to help you 🧡

Sometimes, life kind of gets in the way of my own spiritual practice. I can live with that though, it’s a practice not a “perfect” - and what I need to do as part of it varies and things evolve.
My guides, on the other hand, can get a bit frustrated(?!) with me not paying attention - so when I finally sit down to ask?
It all comes at once 😂
#spiritguides #spirituality #spiritualgrowth #spiritualjourney #meditation #energyhealer #womenwhoworcs
As much as I can, I plan my work life (and social life) around my cycle. Doesn’t always happen that way, cos that’s life! But where things are in my control I make it work for me.
Inner summer, the few days of your cycle around ovulation is a high energy time. I can do lots of “people” things during this phase - meetings whether in person or online don’t phase me and I can chat for ages.
This was one of those days - don’t get me wrong, I was still exhausted by the evening, but it was a good kind of exhausted.
Having a “day job” and running two businesses requires juggling - and being realistic about how much I can do at different times.
An inner summer day means I can be hostess and love it.
A week from now will be a very different story 😂

You ask for guidance, a sign, something to tell you what to do next
You then get ALLLLLL the signs and symbols, practically step by step instructions
But still you don’t actually DO THE THING!
When I read tarot for people, I’m reading the energy around you and the aspect of your life you’re asking questions about.
It could be the sign you’re looking for - or it could be reassurance you’re on the right track.
Problem is, it doesn’t guarantee the future. It’s just one potential outcome.
So if you want The Thing, you’re going to have to Do The Thing.
Or put up with a constant stream of reminders from your guides 😂

Accurate reflection of many a conversation- just do the thing!
Instead of spending all your time looking for reasons not to do The Thing you know you’re being guided to do, maybe it’s time to take action?
I’m so bad at this for myself sometimes - but I’ve definitely learnt that if I’m guided to do (or not do!) something and I ignore that? Well the universe will come along with a giant shove, and if I still don’t do it? It’ll find a way to force me to!
So often it feels like we’re pulled in so many different directions, especially when we’re headed in the direction of burnout.
We keep pushing with all the “shoulds” in our lives, thinking we’re doing the right thing, secretly feeling like someone’s going to catch on that we’re winging it!
It can be really hard to know which way to turn.
I’ve been there (and sometimes go back there for a visit now and again).
When I need to make a big decision I look at all the rational stuff, the facts. But I also listen to my body and what it needs, and to my intuition to see what way I’m being guided. I’ll journal and I’ll pull some tarot cards.
The cards never tell me what to do. They show me things I need to think about, where I could potentially focus my efforts and how to look at it from other perspectives.
If you need a new perspective and some guidance, maybe a tarot reading could help. It won’t tell you what to do or exactly what will happen, but it will illuminate the situation for you 🧡
