Sharing the joy with those we love ❤️

Almost exactly eight years ago in April 2018, I met this beautiful woman, a powerful healer and medicine woman on the island of Gozo. Having packed up my life in London, I landed on Gozo to begin a new job, and life!

Within days of landing, seeking some solace for my soul, I was led to Jackie, who would unknowingly become a profound mentor and teacher in the months and years ahead ❤️

On our first and only meeting in person, I had a healing session with Jackie, a soul retrieval, and in that session she told me, ‘the one within you who loves to dance is making her way back home’.

And oh how right she was! 💃
In these last years, dance has been such a profound medicine, and a potent journey of reuniting with my inner dancer and all the joy she brings.

When I left Gozo at the end of that same year, I made my way to Peru where I spent one month in the jungle working with some powerful plant teachers and a beautiful elder and shaman. From there, I landed in Bath not quite knowing my next steps. But they were somehow chosen for me. I fell apart in a way I had never experienced. The plants had literally broken me down and cracked me open.

I share this because it seems we are at the end of a very significant eight year cycle, and this week, I had the honour of hosting Jackie in my home, our first in person meeting since that first meeting and healing session in Gozo.

Who knows the significance of our meeting at this time, but it feels potent. Change on the horizon and new doorways opening ✨

On the morning she left, we shared cacao together, blowing our prayers into rich chocolatey heaven 💖 and I made us a beautiful breakfast of bircher porridge, with h**p and coconut, raw honey, and autumn fruits.

It is my deepest joy to share food and ceremony in this way. Be it for one person or many, to be the host, create the space, prepare the food, and allow the gift of connection to unfold in unknown and magical ways 🙏

The art of nourishing through food

To nourish and be nourished is to give
And to receive,
The very essence of life herself ✨

To nourish is to strengthen, sustain and cultivate,
To feed your body the right nutrients,
Your mind the right stimulus,
Your heart the right connections,
And your soul the right listening 🌷

Within this web of nourishment,
Food plays a special role.
It is a mirror, and a doorway to the deeper layers of our being.
The way in which we interact with food is a reflection of who we are being,
How we are living,
And how we are relating, both internally and externally.
Our relationship with food shows us where we feel nourished or depleted,
Present or distracted,
Tense or relaxed,
And over and over again, multiple times a day,
it offers us a space to practice coming into ever deeper connection with ourselves, with others, and with life ✨

The art of nourishing through food is the art of deep LISTENING.
Listening to the wisdom of the body that was always already there.
Buried in the fabric of your being.

You know how to nourish,
You know what you need.
But somehow you have forgotten.

Well, dear sister,
And dear brother,
Let me tell you,
Now, it is time to remember.

Food & Freedom

Someone asked me recently, how do you see the connection between food and inner freedom? A question I love to answer because for me they are so intricately linked.

How?
Firstly because the food we eat affects our whole health and wellbeing, and the way that we feel.

And secondly because our relationship with food is such a powerful mirror. It helps us to see what’s really going on within and around us. That seeing is awareness and the first step to creating a deeper sense of inner freedom.

But it’s only when that awareness translates into making aligned choices (action) that a greater sense of inner freedom can come.

In other words, more freedom on the inside doesn’t come from just being able to see the patterns. It comes from seeing the patterns AND making choices that are aligned with who we want to be and how we want to live 🔥

In my experience, the more willing we are to look and listen to what our relationship with food is showing us, the less unconsciously we are driven by habit patterns.

Instead we find our way back to something that feels more alive, more nourishing and more connected.

And in this way, food is a pathway to an ever expanding sense of inner freedom, and it is a doorway home ✨

There is nothing to fear, said the tree

Four days in silence. Sitting, listening, reconnecting, being. And in that silence, the sycamore tree spoke.

This beautiful being, vast and tall. This being of strength with its branches spread wide to the sky, and its roots twisted and gnarled to the earth.

As I looked at it and it looked at me, through its silent word, it spoke. There is nothing to fear.

I allowed the words to move through me. To land in whatever constellation was necessary for the deeper truth to be revealed.

With the equinox portal upon us, we are called to walk through the door. Individually and collectively. Each of us facing our own next step, and all of us facing a step together.

Our journey may feel lonely at times but we are never alone. There may be great challenges to overcome, great fears to face, but always we are connected by the invisible threads that bind us.

As I looked at the tree and it looked at me, new waves of courage spread through my heart. A silent gift received.

Happy Equinox human family and beyond 💫

A Reflection on love & grief ❤️

There are moments in life when the heart is exploding with love and joy,
And there are moments when the heart feels broken with grief.
Love and grief, opposite sides of the same coin.
On one side is the joy and love of holding something precious,
On the other side, the pain of its absence, loss or ending.

This transition from summer to autumn, from the element of Fire (summer) to Earth (late summer) to Metal (autumn) can be a challenging time for some and a glorious time for others 🍂

For me it brings a kind grief that seems to move from within my bones, old and deep.
And yet, with that grief, there is too the knowing of love ❤️

A love so beautiful, so tender, so familiar, that the ache and longing of grief become somehow more bearable.

Night and Day
Sun and Moon
White and Black
Love and Grief

Two sides of the same coin 🪙
The opposing forces of yin and yang.

But to feel fully the love and feel fully the grief is to experience the fullness life.
To dance her dance with a lightness of being and a wisdom that already knows to follow her flow 💫

The Long Table of Belonging ✨

I’ve always loved being the host.
Gathering people together around food, be it in my home or elsewhere.
Creating the menu, curating the meal, the space, the occasion and the feeling of connection and joy that I want people to walk away with.

From this passion and desire for deeper, richer and more meaningful connection, The Long Table of Belonging was born.

Part feast, part gathering, and part sensory adventure, The Long Table is an intimate feast and guided journey through the senses.

An invitation to step out of the everyday into something deeply magical 💫

The Long Table weaves together unctuous food, inspired by the seasons and the wisdom of the Five Elements, along with sensory exploration, conversation, music, connection and play.

Designed for intimate gatherings, The Long Table can come to life in beautiful venues, private homes or out in the wild, each one unique to the setting, the season, and the people, with opportunities to collaborate with brilliant chefs to bring the feast to life.

Im excited to say that The Long Table of Belonging is now making its way into the world 💫

Dismantling the old. Women Rise ✨

Women, there is something very old dismantling itself through us and around us.
An old way of being with the masculine that can no longer hold.
Where we have sought safety and security at the expense of the heart, can no longer stand.
Where we have sacrificed our needs, over and over again, can no longer be.
Where we have lived in fear of masculine power, and our own, must end.

It is both personal and collective.
We each have a story, and yet it is bigger than us.

Women, it is time to rise.
Not with anger in our hearts but with a fierce love that can but heal.
It is time to listen.
To drop deep into our wombs of wisdom and to move from that space.
From the place within us that already knows.

Healing is here.
Men and women, heart to heart, in a way we did once know but could not remember.
The remembering is here.
Listen to its whispers and prepare to be moved.

Old paradigms falling away, but still we must choose.
Not from fear or sacrifice, but from great courage.

It is time.
For a new way.
And that way is LOVE ❤️

In every moment, we get to choose who we are being. Even in the moments of fear, panic, sadness, loneliness or loss.

It doesn’t mean those feelings go away, it means we choose to acknowledge them, love them, and decide otherwise.

This morning was one of those mornings.

I felt tired, overwhelmed and disconnected. I didn’t feel like entering the day.

But I acknowledged it, hugged it and decided it was going to be a day of sweet connection 🌷

An early morning sauna and wild swim at blew away the cobwebs pretty quickly!

A delicious breakfast and beautiful food throughout the day brought sweetness and nourishment.

A stomp around the woods picking wild garlic and nettles to make pesto brought me out of my bubble and into connection with nature.

And all the essentials from my work to do list got done - with ease and gentleness.

In every moment we get to choose 💗

Women’s Healing Circle Ceremony ✨

Last summer I began hosting a monthly women’s healing circle at my home in Bath, and I can honestly say it’s been one of the most deeply enriching and magical experiences.

There is something about gathering together in circle with other women that feels so natural and so timeless 🌹

There is something about being able to speak your heart into the circle and be witnessed that is so deeply healing 🪷

I have the angels to thank for this circle, as when the idea dropped in, they wouldn’t leave me alone until I took the step, even though I was terrified!

And not only did they insist I begin, the gifts they have brought through in each circle are profound.

A few years ago, I never anticipated working with the angels in this way, that it would become part of my work. They stepped into my life in a most unexpected way, and since then I’ve been working with an amazing teacher who has helped me to deepen this connection and develop my gifts as a healer.

We all have spiritual gifts and yet many of us don’t even know it. We all have a connection to the divine, and yet many of us feel exiled or unworthy of it.

These monthly healing circles are an opportunity for each person to connect with and receive from the angels, as well an opportunity to share from the heart and be witnessed and heard in that sharing.

For me, it is such a deep honour and gift to hold this space, to be a channel for the angelic light, and to help others to experience all the love and support that surrounds them in every moment.

If you live in the Bath area and would like to experience being in circle, please feel free to reach out. Circles run once per month, and I also offer one to one healings 🌷
