Rest & Rite

21/08/2026

My rest is almost over and for the first time in years I’m actually really ready to come back. As many of you know this last year has been my first out of a 20 year career in education, it’s taken the whole year for my nervous system to recover.
The last few years I would dread returning to work and it’s then i started to realise something was wrong and this wasn’t the life I wanted anymore. So I started to make plans for my exit until the universe decided it had another plan for me ☺️ so i surrendered and here we are.
🪹I have absolutely loved building the Nest and welcoming so many people into it, i hope to develop this little community even further.
💆‍♀️ I will be adding new services to massage & skincare very soon
🖊️ I am working on a new creative therapeutic writing class to add to the timetable and also considering opening classes up to teens.

There’s a storm coming in over the mountains. I woke up and the air coming in through the window was cooler, the light hit different. You can feel it before you see it.

Some of you are in your own storm right now, whether that’s the school holiday exhaustion, working while everyone else rests, this relentless heat, or just quietly struggling to keep going.

It won’t stay. Storms never do.

My diary’s open from the 26th of August. Whatever you’re holding, I’m here to hold space for you too.
Book via link in my bio or DM me 🙏🏻

🌳 Did you know in Japan “forest therapy” is actually prescribed by doctors🌳

As it starts to cool down a little over the next few days make sure you get yourself back out into nature.

It’s Time!
The Lion’s Gate at its strongest in over a decade, and a planetary shift that hasn’t happened in twelve years. If you’ve been running on low battery lately, let this be your reason to switch it back on. You don’t need to have it all figured out, you just need to show up and give it a go. One breath, one intention, one small step towards something bigger. This is the kind of day that rewards a bit of courage. Take it. 🦁✨

Good Morning! Once you’re done hyping yourself up in the mirror today this is your ‘don’t forget to look up’ reminder. 🙌

Once a year the Sun stands in Leo and the ancients believed the heavens swung open. This year it’s a rare triple-eight alignment, peaking on August 8th. The alignment is astronomy. The gateway is legend. But the calm, focused mind that sets a clear intention? That’s neuroscience, and it’s the part that actually changes things.

How to work with it:

Aug 1 — Plant
Journal: What am I ready to release, and what am I making space for?
Breathwork: 4 rounds of box breathing (in 4, hold 4, out 4, hold 4) before you write.

Aug 8 — Activate
Read back what you wrote. Sit for five minutes, hand on heart, and let it land in the body.

These eight days pass either way. The only question is whether you plant something real, or look back and realise the rarest door of the decade opened while you were busy.

We begin today.

Often my favourite part of the day is at the end (not because all of my clients have left) but because I get to look across and say,
“I built that”
I am so insanely proud of myself. I’m finally giving myself the validation I was crying out for, for so many years… and I’m so grateful to all my clients old & new who have visited The Nest 🙏🏻

What are you insanely proud of? Feel free to share below, I’d love to read about your achievements 🫶🏼

🌞 I’ll be taking an extended holiday to soak up some vitamin sea 🌊
🪹 Back in The Nest from August 25th
