Nic Paterson, Holistic Therapist

Nic Paterson, Holistic Therapist Holistic Healer & Teacher I offer a number of different therapies, all with the same purpose – to help you return to, or maintain, a positive state of health.

I am a holistic healer and teacher, working mainly in Kirkwall, Orkney where I have a therapy room within the North Isles Chiropractic Clinic. In addition, I run workshops and classes throughout the year to encourage and support people to help themselves on their path through life. Our lives nowadays are stressful and few of us allow enough time to relax and breathe out. This can lead to many and

varied conditions, ranging from backache and shoulder tension to depression and digestive problems. My healing sessions can help to rectify this – All my treatments work holistically, working on all levels (mind, body and spirit) to boost wellbeing, reduce stress and leave you feeling healthier and happier. As I work intuitively, I use an appropriate combination of therapies to achieve this.

πŸ’œ Tomorrow is a powerful day in energetic terms...it's one reason you might be feeling things shift and clear this week, ready for the next chapter of the journey πŸ™ The weather helps with that deep clean, blowing away the bruck so we can see things more clearly πŸŒ€
As always, breathe deeply, make sure you're well grounded and be gentle with yourself and others as things adjust and settle πŸ’œ

πŸ¦‹ If you need a wee prompt to switch off, rest and recharge, there will be an online Relaxation Half Hour on Wednesday 16th at 8pm πŸ™ This is open to everyone and is free of charge.
Each of these regular monthly sessions includes some simple but effective breathing exercises as well as a guided meditation. If you can't join on the night a recording will also be available.

🩡 Throughout August, many folk will have felt as though they're bobbing about on a very stormy sea tossed in all directions and not being able to find their feet on dry land πŸŒŠπŸ„β€β™€οΈ If you're lucky, you might be managing to surf at least some of the waves but it's been a tricky ride...
In part, this apparent chaos has been triggered by the combination of two eclipses, the solar earlier this month and a lunar at the end of this week πŸŒ€ Although both are partial eclipses, the energetic shifts they cause can be overwhelming at times but we are approaching calmer waters and a more stable time so we can catch our breath and take stock πŸ€”πŸ™
At the start of the month, we were shown outdated patterns and issues which are long past their sell by date, and given the opportunity to discard them...now as we near the end of August, the full moon helps with the final part of this process πŸ’« We are encouraged to find and strengthen our core and emotional centre so we can embrace a healthier and lighter way forward πŸ™βœ¨οΈ
This journey has not been easy for most so take the chance, regularly if you can, to sit quietly and breathe deeply...acknowledging all you have let go and focusing on what you wish to empower on the next part of your journey 🩷
Above all, be kind and gentle with yourself in all ways πŸ’« 🩡
With much love and lightβœ¨οΈπŸ™βœ¨οΈ

Many of you may have already noticed a marked change in energies this month, both personal and universal πŸ’«
The month began with the Flower Full Moon which really helped us see things clearly...it spotlighted those areas and aspects in our lives we needed to discard, change or tweak. The year so far has been focused on this but as this is a Blue Moon month, it accelerates the process...not always comfortably but ultimately enlightening and uplifting πŸ’™
As we progress through the month, we might find ourselves encountering old habits, contacts and issues surfacing for attention...this is the time to acknowledge what we need or want to keep then release the rest...see this outdated energy float off into the ether, freeing us from restrictions and, often self imposed, barriers to our progress πŸŒ€
As this bruck clears, and we move towards the Blue Moon at the end of the month the way ahead will become clearer, our focus and awareness will increase, and we will feel things falling effortlessly into place πŸ™
Don't overthink, worry or doubt as that just puts up more barriers, but trust your gut, dump what's done with, and embrace the lighter, happier and freer you βœ¨οΈπŸ’›βœ¨οΈ

✨️ It's very easy, especially with so much chaos around, to become stuck in a pattern of worrying and doubt. However, as we know, energy follows thought so what we focus on, we empower...
So, if you can, become more conscious of your thoughts and words and when you find yourself choosing the worry, doubt or frustration option...stop, refocus and choose instead to empower what you actually want. The more you do, the less inclined you will be to get stuck in the mire and instead you will be more likely to embrace the positive and expand into it πŸ™βœ¨οΈπŸ™

πŸŒ±πŸ’› With the days lightening and spring energies rising, we can sometimes feel a bit overwhelmed or even reluctant to embrace the change...it's natural to take our time emerging from hibernation so don't feel pressured to jump in and get all the spring jobs done at once. Instead, take your time and allow things to unfold at their own pace and you'll feel more grounded and in tune if you do ✨️
As ever, the best way of feeling that natural connection and flow is to begin with your breath. Sit quietly, slow and deepen your breathing, and allow your mind and body to come into balance πŸ™ If you are able, try a gentle walk, yoga, qigong or meditation to encourage and strengthen that still, quiet and clear focus, and just like the new shoots emerging from the soil, allow yourself to expand and grow into the light 🌸
If you need some guidance, encouragement or inspiration, there are guided breathing and meditation exercises under the reels section of my page, and there's also the monthly Relaxation Half Hour too. If you would like the Zoom link for the latter or the recording, please just get in touch.
Enjoy April πŸŒ±πŸ’›πŸŒ±

πŸ’šπŸ€πŸ’š As we celebrate Imbolc and the gradual return of the light, it's important to take the time to be still and gentle with ourselves πŸ’šπŸ€πŸ’š
While this festival reminds us of the growing light and potential, both personally and in the world around us, it is a time for quiet reflection and peace...a pregnant pause before the burst into life and the year ahead πŸ™βœ¨οΈπŸ™
Try to take the time to sit quietly, breathe and be πŸ’› Travel within and become more aware of what feels right, what you wish to empower and how best to keep yourself grounded, nurtured and in balance 🩷 This is not the time to rush or push too hard but a time of quiet contemplation and patience. Just like in the natural world, the more we can nurture ourselves and attend to our needs, the stronger we become and the more resilient as the year unfolds before us 🌱πŸͺ»πŸŒ±
So, take February slowly...breathe in the growing light, allow it to build up in your system and feel your awareness expand as your inner light strengthens and with it, your smile and potential πŸ™πŸ˜Šβœ¨οΈ
If you need a bit of encouragement with the inner work there will be an online Relaxation Half Hour on Wednesday 18th at 8pm. There are also guided meditations under the video section of this page. If you would like the link to the session or the recording, please get in touch.
There will also be a Clinic Reiki Share at 7pm on Wednesday 25th. This is open to Reiki students and practitioners but space is limited so please let me know if you'd like to book a place.
With love and light 🀍🌱🀍

✨️ As we move into the new year, it's important to remember to take time to nurture and care for ourselves. The more attention we pay to strengthening and empowering ourselves, on all levels, the lighter we become and the more able and aware πŸ™
January is traditionally a month to courie in and lie low, allowing ourselves the chance to rest and recharge in readiness for the rising, spring energies 🌱 The weather has definitely helped with that this year, and possibly encouraged us to focus more on priorities, letting the chatter and hassles subside so we can simply be cosy and safeπŸ™
If you feel in need of some help with relaxing and rebalancing though, there will be a free, online Relaxation Half Hour on Wednesday 14th January at 8pm. This will include some simple breathing exercises and a guided meditation to clear stress, boost energy and relax mind, body and spirit 🩷 The more relaxed we are, the better we function and the healthier our natural energy flow πŸ’«
For Reiki practitioners and students, there will also be an online Share at 8pm on Wednesday, 21st January.
Both these sessions are recorded so you can access them anytime, even if you can't join in on the night.
If you would like further information on these sessions or wish to be added to the recording or mailing list, please just get in touch ✨️
Let 2026 be a year to fully step into the light you have nourished and nurtured πŸ’› A year when we realise our strengths and potential βœ¨οΈπŸ’›βœ¨οΈ
