Feedback from an absolutely beautiful woman who came to see me for Womb support and some musings that this journey inspired 🧡

It only takes a moment to decide you no longer want to live seperate from your female body. You no longer want to be just a floating head, looping through logic and daydreaming your way through the world.

It only takes a moment to decide you will devote yourself to fully inhabiting and living from the fullness of your feminine. Being led by the deep trust and knowing that ripples through you.

It only takes a moment to decide you no longer want to sabotage your body, with relationships, food, ways or being that are not serving the health, vitality and joy of your body.

It only takes a moment to decide to choose practices, relationships, nourishment and ways of being that deeply nourish and support you.

This is not about will power.

This is about devotion.

It about getting curious on what is keeping you in numbness, disconnect and sabotage and finding ways to breakthrough to fully embodied trust, devotion, love and freedom.

We decide to call it a night, so we climb into our rooftop tent, Gareth has set it up with all the snuggly things and fairy lights - ‘cos he’s a cutie like that…

I put on my 3 layers of thermals and slither into my sleeping bag. In my head having a beautiful weekend away in nature with my love looks like snuggling and passionate s*ex that annoys all the fellow campers around us, but the reality isn’t quite that, well, not even close…


I’m huffing and puffing trying to get comfy, annoyed at life that i’m away somewhere beautiful and in pain. I’m playing the victim big time, why is life doing this to me, why now, why can’t I feel good!? I’m sure you’ve been in a similar situation?

Anyway after a few more dramatic huffs and puffs, Gareth asks again. ‘Are you ok love? Is there anything I can do to help?’, I respond again with how i’m sick of this reoccurring pain, I spiral into thinking I will always have this pain and I’ll never be able to fully heal it. I am now fully immersed in my victimhood.


He then asks ‘Would you like me to just put my hand there and you can just breathe?’

…

This is a cheeky snippet from a story in my newsletter Womb Weekly, where I’ll be sharing stories and wisdom I’ve learn through personal experiences, practices I adore and use to support my womb & body, talk on all things taboo, womanhood & healing.

If you’d love some support in coming home to your body, are wanting to dive deeper than Instagram allows and would appreciate some spicy words, laughs and meaningful, heartfelt reads then drop me a message with your email and I’ll add you to the community ❤️‍🔥🌹

Our belly, digestive system & solar plexus area can hold so much unprocessed emotion and energy 💛

If you are experiencing digestive issues, disordered eating, fatigue, a sense of powerlessness, low self esteem or feelings of heaviness, nausea, swirling, or anxiety sitting in your stomach area these can all be signs that there is stored energy that needs space to be felt and processed…

So many of our digestive issues come from us not being able to digest and process things we have experienced in our life. Sometimes this isn’t just our own ‘stuff’, this stuck energy or trauma can be passed down to us through our family lines through the womb and epigenetics.

The women that come to me for support often have some sort of digestive issue, or tell me there is a heavy feeling that sits and lingers within their stomach and feels yuck.

My work is to simply guide women back home to their bodies, to be with the sensations within them and give their body space to really process what is sitting with the cells, muscles, tissues and energetics…

It still blows me away how beautifully & effortlessly the body can clear energy through clear presence, touch and breath✨✨✨

Your body loves you, it is designed to heal.

It just needs the safe space, the presence and the belief of healing.

If your womb, your belly, your body is needing some much deserved love I’m available in person at The Womb Room in Wanaka for 1:1 sessions. I also hold online sessions to empower you in meeting your own body, learning how to process your own energy and step into whole body, whole woman health.

Drop me a message if you’d like support 😙🤎

We’re bombarded by health advice online, reels & reels of new foods, new supplements, new trends…

It’s not all bad I know, but sooo much of it is bullsh\t and doesn’t take into account who you are, where your health is currently at and most importantly how your female body works!

Your body as a woman is fucccking incredible ⭕️

We experience so many ebbs and flows throughout the month, we go through changes in our brain chemistry, our digestion, our energy, our mood, our libido, our bones shift, our cervix moves, the list goes on…

…We are literally mind blowing 🤯

So if you’re a woman struggling with your health in some way, energy, digestion, mood, sleep, menstruation, fertility or is feeling deep disconnection from your feminine self…

…You need support from someone who understands and honours you as a woman, someone who can meet your where you at, look at the big picture of your life, look at the patterns within your menstrual cycle, listen to what you and your body are saying.

Please save yourself time, energy & frustration and get support from someone who can help guide you back to optimum health through the wisdom of your own body 🩸

If this sounds like you and you’re looking for support I’ve started offering online sessions, alongside my in person, hands on support & coaching currently available in The Womb Room in Wanaka.

My work is always held in the deepest love, care and honouring of your body and your journey 🌹

If you’d like the deets, drop me a message.

Big hugs & love 🤎

Have you ever questioned why we have been taught so little, if anything, about how our female bodies function?

I was confused from a young age at why I wasn’t told anything about my menstrual cycle, my body, my hormones and birth🩸

I remember looking around and realising that not even the older woman around me understood their own bodies; which made me angry, sad and hungry to learn what the f**kkk was actually going on here.

I know it’s no accident that the majority of us have had no wisdom or knowledge passed down to us
(if you did, you’re one of the lucky ones)

I know that the powerful stories of the feminine have been burned. Ancient traditions, rituals & wisdom destroyed.

We have been intentionally disempowered and disconnected.

I know you feel this in your body. The pain, the confusion, the overwhelm, the sadness and mistrust in your own body.

We have handed over our power and now it’s time to take it back.

It’s starts with you. With your own body. A hands on approach. Getting connected to your blood, your bones, your tissues, your breath, your heart, your womb.

It starts with you and creates a new, more beautiful,
more empowered way for our future generations…

If you want to start on this journey but are confused on where to start and what to do, drop me a message I’d love to share the many many places you can begin to explore this journey back home to yourself.

Imagine if we started the journey of connecting to our wombs before we had children?

I wonder how different our conceptions, pregnancies and birth journeys would look if we’d already learnt how to trust and soften into our wombs?

I’ve been observing this jump from living as a maiden; a free spirit, living where the wind takes her, usually in her mind, not connected to her body, usually carrying pain from her own experiences and through her matriarchal line.

…To suddenly descending into the depths of her womb and body when she becomes pregnant.

It’s not the journey I’ve yet to experience however it’s a story I hear & witness time and time again.

🌀 I wonder how life would look if she’d already learnt how to trust the wisdom of her body and womb.

🌀I wonder if she’d feel different already understanding the anatomy of how her female body works.

🌀I wonder if her birth would be different if she’d been taught how to unwind the tension within her pelvis.

🌀I wonder if she’d feel more empowered if she’d experienced the connection between her voice and her yoni before giving birth.

🌀I wonder if she’d be more prepared for the initiation of pregnancy, birth and motherhood if she’d already learnt how to meet the dark depth of her womb and her emotions.

It’s something I ponder often as a women slowly making her journey from maiden to mother; and no this isn’t a pregnancy announcement 🥲

This is a conversation and topic I’d love to chat more. I think it’s needed, because let’s be real, as women so many of us have not been gifted the knowledge, support or passed down wisdom on how to nourish & care for ourselves through all stages of our womanhood ⭕️

I’d love to hear your words and stories; you whether your a mother, a woman on a womb journey, a woman transitioning from maiden to mother or a woman who just has something to say.

Share your heart below 🌀🤎

Our wombs and menstrual cycles are a reflection of our overall health & wellbeing as women.

So many of us have lost touch to this beautiful part of ourselves, resulting in imbalances within our menstrual cycles, fertility & energy.

This disconnection has us living from our heads and not our bodies, feeling ungrounded, stagnant, not feeling at home in ourselves and never truly trusting our intuition.

It‘s time to remember the wisdom of our feminine bodies and bring women‘s health back into women‘s hands…

The WOMB COCOON is a space where you will be guided back home to your breath, heart, womb and body ⭕️

Receiving hands on touch that will work to unwind & clear any physical, emotional & energetic tension. Calling in fresh blood, energy, life and alignment into the womb and pelvis.

Your will recieve the upmost presence, love and honouring; something our feminine body so deeply desires and deserves 🤎

If you like in Wanaka & surrounds you can book this 2 hour in person journey through the link in the bio 🌹

I’ve been feeling a massive ICK towards the ‘spiritual community’ for a while now…😶

So much so I’ve wanted to not be associated with it at all. I know I’m not the only one feeling this.

I’m seeing us becoming slightly obsessed with having the biggest releases, the most transformational moments and always seeking our next ‘spiritual high.’

It feels like a constant push and struggle for the next big awakening and it’s exhausting - tell me I’m not the only one feeling this? 🥱

Social media especially is highlighting this with images and videos of people having massive emotional releases, group ‘healing’ experiences with hundreds of people - that a lot of the time really just end up re-traumatising people rather than helping them.

The pendulum has swung so far into this hyper ‘spiritual’ world, the one that has almost become an obsessive trend.

‘Spirituality’ is feeling like a consumerism model, when it should feel like the most natural thing in the world - we are all innately spiritual. It is not something to be attained.

I realise that is an essential part of our evolution and process and that the pendulum will come back into a more balanced dance…

One where we remember our humanness and our groundedness.

One where we find beautiful balance within our own lives.

One when we honour the subtle, slow, natural unfolding and healing

One where we don’t have to be hyper independent and obsessed with our own psyches.

One where we know the way we find connection and meaning is from being in divine relationship with everyone and everything around us.

Personally I’ve taken some taken away to really contemplate my motives, my service, my integrity and my values. Questioning everything I believe, I look to & trust.

It’s very much needed right now.

So if you’re feeling this, know you are not alone and that it’s actually really fucccking healthy to be question, discerning and deeply listening.

I know there is so much more to this conversation, so much nuance that I’d love to keep having conversations around.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and if you’d like to continue this convo??

Let me know 😚🤎🤠
