Here’s Merlin. The cutest, nicest person encased in fur. ‘Whassup Mama? Yaaaaawn’ (sucks paw) My heart melts.. Sometimes we have to stop to see, to truly love. This is an ancient teaching that has been spoken about for thousands of years. Mindfulness. It can sound so cold, so austere, like ‘sit down, shut up, growContinue reading “Awaken”

There’s a biscuit at the hoof of the cow in the second photo. My new mates. I’m like a squirrel with free biscuits and chocolate, the type you’re given in cafes and restaurants with your hot drink. They can hang around in my bag for months. Well today I had help with my stash. WeContinue reading “Peaks Day 4”

Today was the heaviest menstrual day for me. I felt like I had no blood left in my head so we sloped off for a lazy morning in Buxton. We expected beauty. It’s a spa town. My god we were disappointed. The cold and drizzle mingled with tired old cheap shops that made Heron FoodsContinue reading “Peaks Day 3”

Today is our second day at the Peak District. It has also been littered with magic of the softer kind. My time of the moon started today so everything is slow and fuzzy around the edges. We visited the Mill I spoke about yesterday. The one the sat nav was desperate to get us to.Continue reading “Peaks Day 2”

Sometimes fact is stranger than fiction. On days like that it’s best to record what happened whilst you still believe it yourself. So here I am. Wide eyed, silenced and amazed. Last week was hard. My yoga theme of the week was Grace, allowing yourself to fall and be caught by unseen thermals, I fellContinue reading “The Peaks”

On Jan 23rd 2021 I turned 43. I still feel like a teenager wondering what I’ll be when I grow up?! I wonder if that’ll ever change? It was a marvellous, magical weekend and I truly adored it in every way. We are in tier 4 lockdown, so none of the usual socialising, but IContinue reading “Birthday Weekend”

It’s serenity week and I spent a few quiet hours sorting through my mums old sewing threads and materials. Some of it was so old that I wondered what’s the story? Why is it here? Where did mum find it? Did she ever use it? Was any of it my grandma’s? Some items were soContinue reading “What’s the Story?”

This weeks yoga theme is serenity. Each week, since the start of 2021, we’ve had a positive theme. First joy, then gratitude, now serenity. I’m always amazed at how perfectly each theme fits my week. I awoke with a sore throat, feeling ill. I know it’s not covid as I’ve already been tested, I justContinue reading “Serenity”

This has been one very special week. I feel like I’ve learnt so much! The theme was gratitude. It sounded great until I hit day one of this theme and got totally triggered. I had a meeting on the Monday and by the end I felt utterly worthless, useless and rubbish. A rare feeling forContinue reading “Gratitude Week”

One of the things that makes me happy is healthy versions of comfort food. I’ve always had a strong intolerance to dairy and sugar sends me a bit loopy so until the appearance of this superfood era I was a bit stuck for desserts. I used to be the wierd kid who had orange juiceContinue reading “Choc Chip Ice Cream”
