✨ THE PLAN ✨

This week is Dying Matters Week - a week where actively talking about death and dying is encouraged 💜

It's the perfect week for me to FINALLY be launching THE PLAN - a guide to being .responsible and thinking about your end of life. For me, thinking about this sort of stuff - my values, my needs, the legacy I want to leave - has helped me become more prepared and informed.

It's also helped me live the life I want to live. Right here, right now.

I didn't just want this to be a guide to the practicalities of end of life, I wanted it to be an emotional and spiritual preparation - self discovery magnified - a radically responsible look at how to live life better.

I'm yet to populate the Radically Responsible socials - one step at a time 😂 - but follow along as I retake this death planning journey, and share the things I've learnt along the way.

Get your editable PDF copy of THE PLAN by visiting the store on my website, or pick up a physical copy next time you're at the studio DM me if you're unsure.

Please let your friends know, let your family know, share this post - being Radically Responsible and planning is a huge act of love for those you're going to leave behind some day 💜

✨Perfect Day ✨

There are very few things that bring me more joy than Reiki training days 💜

They aren’t like other days and I’m not like other teachers. This space is for you to find your unique relationship with Reiki - for you to take the next step on your path - however that looks for you.

Day 2 tomorrow 💜

✨ Hello ✨

It’s been a while, so I thought I’d better do an intro post for those who are new here, and for those who haven’t been here for a while.

I’m Eva, a holistic healing practitioner and soul doula for life’s transitions.

I’m a Reiki practitioner and teacher, a sound practitioner, and end of life doula.

I hold space for people as they navigate changes… whether that be relationships, careers, life milestones, grief, loss or end of life.

I believe that we should talk about death more, and that doing so helps us live life more fully - leaving more room for joy, aliveness, experience, and ultimately love.

My lived experience allows me to help others by meeting them exactly where they are at. Giving them space to work through their stuff - no fixing, no awkwardness. Empowering people to be in their soveriegnty and to find their own path through this crazy life.

I can be very silly. I can be very serious. I’m many different things, all at the same time and I’m a great hugger.

I’m based at Studio 6 which is part of Scott Hall Mills in Leeds
I hold various group events there - from journaling soundbaths through grief circles to reiki shares. I also hold regular reiki trainings and ‘Talk it to Death’ sessions to encourage more conversation around death, dying and bereavement. You can work with me 1:1, in person or even online.

I’m here, doing what I do, helping you do what you do too 💕

Send me a message if you want to know anything specific, or come and see me at the studio sometime 😍

✨ Quick Fix? ✨

Over the last few days, I feel like I’ve had loads of conversations with people about the rocky, twisty, uphill, rollercoaster, liberating, yet terrifying healing path.

It’s all and everything, rolled into one 😂

And I also feel as though I’ve been talking to people about patience in relation to that.

I’m lucky that my regular clients have a grasp on their healing journeys. They are in it for the long haul. However, I occasionally come across someone who’s looking for a quick fix. One Reiki or sound journey to solve all their problems.

There’s no such thing and that will never happen. But Reiki will start to open space so change can happen and that’s where the magic lies.

Healing is a slow burn, and it takes hard work. Hard work that some people just aren’t willing to put in.

And that’s ok. It really is.

But if you’re ready, step in. See if it’s for you 💕✨

✨ HELP (please) ✨

I can’t believe this is the first post I’ve done this year! How is it February already!?

I’m having a great start to 2026 and, tbh, posting on here isn’t high on my list of priorities right now. My newsletter however, has been regular as clockwork 😂 (sign up on my website or DM me for link)

Last week saw the last of my funded Bereavement Soundbath and Social events and I’m really sad that I’m not able to offer more.

They’ve really helped people, and I’ve really loved holding them 💕

Anyway, this post is a bit of a call for help…. I don’t know much about community funding pots and I’m hoping that anyone reading this that does, could give me a couple of leads.

I’d love to secure more funding to help people in the community who are grieving.

Any pointers or tips will be very much appreciated.

✨ Winter Solstice ✨

On this darkest of days… the longest night… my heart is a bright shining light.

Full of love and appreciation for all the wonderful people who have invited me into their life this year. However fleetingly.

Friends, 1:1 clients, Reiki students, workshop visitors, people who like my social media posts, those who’ve visited my website or signed up to my newsletter.

I cherish all the stories that have been shared and I honour all the tender moments you’ve allowed me to be part of. Thank you for trusting me. Thank you for supporting me, and my business.

I appreciate every single one of you and all that you have taught me - about you, about myself and about the world.

The light always returns. (Eventually. Even if only fleetingly).

Sending you Solstice blessings, from my heart to yours 💕

✨ Rainy Day ✨

I didn’t think it was going to get light today! But, actually, it was nice to get to the studio early and light up all the candles.

This time of year can feel a bit like that. Joyous with an undertone of sadness. Gladness with a tinge of longing. Thinking about the things we’ve lost… reminded of the things we never had.

It’s busy, it’s noisy, it’s stressful, tiring and overwhelming. It’s also gorgeous, exciting, lovely.

It can be, and is, all the things at once. But finding the balance can be hard.

Go easy on yourselves and try and accept each moment as it comes - the moments pass and can soon be something else entirely.

Sending you lots of love on this rainy day 💕

✨ Grief ✨

This week is National Grief Awareness Week and every year, I have grand plans to mark it with workshops, social media posts or the launching of new offerings. But it never works out like that.

This year is no different and it feels like this week has snuck up on me… again!

Having said that, grief has been a big part of my week… many of my clients are experiencing grief and loss, I held my monthly Talk it to Death session, and I also attended a session about creatively continuing bonds after someone has died, (organised by the wonderful lot at ).

As a result, I’ve been pondering on the fact that although we always need spaces to talk about grief, grief isn’t contained to a certain week or a certain time of year. Sure, there are worse times that sting more - an anniversary, a birthday, Christmas - but grief has a way of sneaking up on us when we least expect it. A smell, a song or something someone says. It can catch us completely unawares.

This year, the theme of National Grief Awareness Week is ‘Growing with Grief’, and this is something we talked about at the Talk it to Death session.

We agreed that after a loss we will never be the same, and that much of grief is learning to accept the new version of us - who we are as a result of that experience.

For me, grief - not only through loss, but also through the absence of things that never were - has been a huge opportunity for growth for me. The truth is, we don’t have a choice - we have to grow around the thing that’s happened because we can’t change it. It just IS, and that’s a really hard pill to swallow.

Being able to talk about it helps. Being around people who are able to talk about it helps.

I think it helps.

So even though it’s Grief Awareness Week this week, I’m staying committed to witnessing and offering emotional support for grief, in all its forms, on all days of the year.

If you’re in Leeds and I can help in any way, you know where I am. If you’re further afield, don’t let that stop you from getting in touch.

There are still a few space on my FREE Bereavement Soundbath & Social sessions - please take a look and join me if you can.

✨ Are you ready to be Radically Responsible? ✨

13 years ago today, my mum died. It may sound harsh to some, but part of me was relieved…

… because the weeks leading up to that had been nothing short of traumatic.

I knew my mum had been receiving treatment for cancer but when I saw her that Summer, I was told that things were going well. She was terminal, but there was no reason why she couldn’t live another twenty years.

A few weeks later, my step dad called to say that she had six weeks to live and he needed to get her back to the UK (she lived in Cyprus). What followed was a shambles of unbelievable events that thankfully resulted in her having a peaceful death.

I was told that my mum didn’t know she was dying. So it wasn’t really talked about, and I wasn’t given any room to deal with what was happening. Obviously, my mum wasn’t stupid and there were moments where we could have frank conversations - but not many!

After she died it was similarly shambolic - I had no idea what she wanted for her funeral but felt that it was largely down to me to decide.

The whole thing was even more upsetting because nobody was Radically Responsible. Nobody faced the facts head on.

Now, I get it… what my mum was going through was awful and it was awful for my step dad too. I understand that. But keeping silent and avoiding the issue didn’t change anything - it just made things worse.

This is why I feel so passionate about people being Radically Responsible. Taking charge of their situation by thinking about this kind of thing before it’s too late.

Before the reality hits you like a ton of bricks.

If you’ve talked about it beforehand, maybe it’ll be just a tiny bit easier to talk about again. Or if you’ve at least written some stuff down, you’re saving someone else the heartbreak of guesswork. You're stopping people from having to walk on eggshells and allowing them to process their grief without being bogged down in decision making. More time for connection, more time to make the most of the limited time that's left.

In the new year I’m going to be launching a death planning course that deals with thinking ahead, making plans and, most importantly, recording information for our loved ones.

For the first cohort (running at a reduced cost) I’m seeking 6 people who want to be Radically Responsible in starting to think about their future. This course will not only support you in decision making for your end of life, it will also help you address elements of your day to day that aren’t in alignment.

I truly believe that thinking about death helps us to live life better 💕

If this sounds like something you’d like to know more about, DM me your email address and I’ll send you the details.
