The $64m Question or Why Questions Are Good For You.
If you are a follower of The Hitchhiker’s Guide, I guess that you already know that the magic answer is 42, although of course, the real issue is ‘What is the Question?’ But for those of you who aren’t au fait with Douglas Adam’s work, there are a number of questions that may routinely...
read moreSo What Is A Trance and How Can It Help Me?
I often get asked about how easy it is to enter a trance. Many people wonder whether they have the ability to enter a trance or not. They then get even more worried when the trance is specific, i.e. hypnotic, shamanic or meditative trance. But entering into trance is easy and there’s no reason...
read moreAre You Out of Sync with Nature?
I know, I know…you’ve a lot to do and it’s grey outside and perhaps the sofa/telly combo is just a little too alluring to be drawn outside. And as we all sit there cosseted and warm, have you noticed how we are no longer in sync with Nature? Where once it used to be...
read morePast Lives: Unlocking the Key to the Future
When I was at school, I learnt that history was important. I understood that only by learning from and considering our mistakes and actions in the past, that we as a society can progress forwards. On a soul level, that’s pretty much why past life regression is so effective and can really help us...
read moreBlue Moon Magic
The Moon at her fullest is always especially inspiring, but tonight we have a Blue Moon. It’s a time not only to contemplate her beauty and the gift she gives to us each month, of beautiful, reflected light, but to consider what it is that we wish to manifest for ourselves. In Tarot, the...
read moreThe Power of Belief
What stops so many of us realizing our dreams is a lack of belief. My wise old mum used to say that you can achieve anything you want in this world, as long as you believe. True enough, I hear you say, so why don’t we? Belief has always been a powerful concept. The...
read moreThe Forgotten Art of Tuning in to Nature
One of the things that I have really enjoyed about my Shamanic journey is learning how to ‘tune in’ to Nature. We all have an innate intuitive ability and usually know (but often have spent years ‘forgetting’), how to tune in to the seen and unseen world around us. You may already be communing...
read moreBig Heart – The Healing Power of Love
I had a bit of a eureka moment recently which I’d like to share with you. I have been studying and practicing different types of healing for a number of years now. I’ve used crystals, tried angelic healing, attuned to nature with Shamanic healing, enjoyed the flow of Reiki, the smells of aromatherapy, loved...
read moreRid Yourself of Negative Internal Dialogue
We all tend to take what we say and think for granted. However, our words, whether spoken aloud or thought within our heads are really powerful – both for the good and the bad. Negative dialogues can really stop us in our tracks, make us doubt our own abilities and stop us in moving...
read moreStar Qualities – The Bridge to Joy
I‘ve been meaning to write a post about the Major Arcana card Strength – the card that first lured me to the Tarot. Strength shows a wonderful lion, whose wild, masculine strength is tamed, or at least balanced, by the softer more feminine strength of his beautiful, clever companion. They have been much on...
