✨ What a wonderful way to wrap up World Reflexology Week! ✨
This week has been full of treatments in my practice, and today was the perfect finish — joining together with the amazing reflexologists from the Southern Reflexology Group for our Expo. 💛
From 11am till 4pm we were non-stop with:
🌿 Relaxing treatments
🎤 Three inspiring presentations
🛍️ Beautiful stalls with goodies
🎁 Excited winners of hampers and spot prizes
I loved having a great audience for my demonstration of a simple routine that attendees can share with family and friends. The questions, conversations, and positive feedback were just wonderful. 🙌
Providing hand reflexology treatments gave me the chance to connect with so many lovely souls, while also teaching more about how reflexology supports relaxation, balance, and well-being. 🌱
Such a rewarding day and a beautiful celebration of reflexology! 💖

Today is World Alzheimer’s Day 💜🕊️
To families and carers — we see you. Caring for someone with dementia is loving work, and it can also be hard 💞. In my practice and at rest homes I offer gentle reflexology 👣 that’s positively received by those with dementia — a calming, grounding form of non-verbal communication when words fail, helping people feel safe, soothed and connected 🌿✨.
Next week for World Reflexology Week we have a reflexology expo for you. 🌍 I’ll be giving a short talk and a demonstration of a simple, step-by-step relaxing routine you can use with your loved one (especially those with Alzheimer’s or dementia).
Join us at the Papanui Spiritual Centre on Saturday the 27th September from 11am–4pm — pick up some goodies 🎁 and experience your own reflexology treatment at our expo 👣.

✨ What a wonderful day our Southern Reflexology Group had at Burwood Hospital – Te Whatu Ora – Waitaha Canterbury ✨
It was an incredibly rewarding experience to share the benefits of hand and foot reflexology with both patients and staff. 💛 Patients welcomed a moment of calm amidst all that is going on and many shared their stories and health journeys with us — a privilege we truly value. 🌿 Staff were also able to pause and recharge during their busy day.
We are so grateful to the hospital staff for being so accommodating, acknowledging the value of reflexology for patients, and making space and time for this to happen. 🙏
Thank you for working with us to make this day possible – it was truly special. 🌸

This week has been a full and meaningful one 💛🌼
Today marks Daffodil Day in NZ, a cause very close to my heart. 1 in 3 New Zealanders are diagnosed with cancer, and like many of you, I have walked this path personally, as well as alongside friends, family and clients. Each year, I feel privileged to volunteer reflexology treatments with the Cancer Society, offering a gentle moment of relief during a very stressful time 🌿✨

In the lead up to today, I’ve been busy baking 🧁🍪 for a fundraiser to support this incredible organisation — every small act adds up to make a difference 💛

It’s also been a week of learning and growth 🌱 Between supporting clients, I was fortunate to join workshops on sleep, fatigue & burnout, menopause and how it affects our brain, and foot mobilisation. Each offered powerful insights — from the biology of what’s happening in our bodies, to new tools I can share to better support your well-being. 🦋

When I share this knowledge with clients, it empowers them to make better-informed choices for their health and what feels right for them. 🌸 When we understand how our body works — and why we are doing things to support it — the changes we make can have a deeper and more lasting effect ✨💛

I’m grateful for the chance to keep expanding my toolkit, and to walk alongside you all in your journeys toward balance, health, and inner calm 💛🌸

I started my Saturday with the most peaceful and inspiring experience — the Sunrise Soak at He Puna Taimoana in New Brighton. Thank you to the team there for creating such a beautiful space. As the sun rose over the ocean, I reflected on the quiet promise of a new day. ✨

In the stillness, I was reminded that while we never truly know how each day will unfold, we can choose how we meet it — with presence, intention, and openness to possibility. 🌞

The weekend continued with the Southern Reflexology Group, where we shared laughter yoga with the wonderful Hannah Airey. Did you know that laughter is as powerful as a cardio workout, for boosting oxygen to the brain and body? It also releases serotonin and endorphins — the body’s natural feel-good hormones — and connects us through joy. 🧘‍♀️😂💓

Here’s to calm mornings, contagious laughter, and the beautiful people who help us thrive. 🌿

✨💗Reflexology supports us in finding a deep sense of internal balance✨💗

When we feel more grounded 🌿 and in tune with ourselves ✨, we’re better able to respond — rather than react to the challenges and demands of the external world.

This sense of reset allows us to move through life with more clarity, calm, and resilience 🌱✨.

A heartfelt thank you to Nicole, a talented local here in Prebbleton, for creating the beautiful, natural balms I have used in my treatments this week 💚

These balms are handcrafted with care and include kawakawa, a traditional Māori plant known for its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties 🌿 The kawakawa is sustainably sourced right here from Banks Peninsula, adding a special local touch.

Infused with olive oil and coconut oil, this blend deeply nourishes the skin while enhancing relaxation — perfect for calming the nervous system and supporting your body’s natural healing response.

It’s a perfect fit for the grounding and restorative nature of reflexology✨

✨ Reflections from Breathe Tekapo ✨
I promised I would follow up with the insights I gained from the inspiring speakers at this wonderful event, each sharing practical, heartfelt insights into self-care, stress, and resilience. Here's a wee snippet (it was hard to keep this short as I could share about this all day):

🌀 Dave Wood reminded us that not all stress is bad — it’s necessary for all our body systems – to keep them strong and responsive. We need our stress response to assist us to take action but it's only sustainable when paired with adequate recovery. Without that balance, our systems stay in overdrive, and that’s when burnout or illness can creep in.
Stress + Recovery = Growth
💡 Tip: Build in daily moments of purposeful calm in your calendar or diary after every activity like breathwork 🧘‍♂️, gentle movement 🚶‍♀️, social connection 🧑‍🤝‍🧑, or reconnecting with nature 🌿. Even five minutes before rushing to the next meeting or activity can be profound.

🧠 Dr Denise Quinlan made us think about where our daily attention is in our work – putting our quality focus into protecting things that matter and things we can control.
💡 Tip: Schedule designated focus time 🗓️, cut out distractions ❌📱, prioritise ✅ and factor in positive recovery time 🧘.
This will then allow us to have time and energy to build real connections with others 💞 which grows collective resilience. When we focus on more compassion with others and less perfectionism we have genuine support.
💬 “We are all just walking each other home.” – Ram Dass

🧘‍♀️ I was intrigued to learn the philosophy behind Buddhist meditation with Susan Allen. It is a practice with a goal not just to relieve stress but to foster self-realisation. When we quiet the mind we find freedom from the things that bind us – the majority of our thoughts are repetitive and all about us.

💡 Tip: Take five minutes now for your mind by anchoring into the body:
-Start by feeling your inhale, let go of the need to label it.
-Then feel your exhale and notice its natural rhythm.
-Finally become aware of how your whole body feels 🧍. Repeat this loop.
When your mind wanders, notice it without judgement and gently return to these three anchor points.
This simple practice, repeated over time, builds a deeper sense of calm 🕊️ and connection to self by quietening the mind.

Which takeaway speaks to you most right now? I’d love to hear 💬
