Over the weekend I connected with my four thousandth person!

In this moment it suddenly dawned on me, these connections are more than just follows, together we have built such a loving and supportive community for each other, created with deep and heartfelt bonds, it feels very much like a sanctuary and a place to share facets of ourselves and our work.

My page began in December’23, building VERY slowly at first, having just 100 followers up until my teenage daughter gave me some Instagram lessons in January last year, bringing me to today, having aligned globally with over 4k of you, and such beautiful souls you are too! 🥹

We’ve connected through truth, through love and through our quest for light, building a better world as one heart, one intention at a time.

In this space, as in my therapy practice, I bring my whole heart and authentic self, which is all I know how to do.

My posts might not be the most exciting, but I hope you feel a quality within them where you feel truly seen, deeply cared for, comforted and empowered, as I hope my clients feel too, helping to remind them and you of your beautiful life’s purpose.

So all that remains for me to say is a very warm “thank you!”

Keep being true to yourselves dear ones, as you do the work you love, listen to your intuition always in all things and never stop following your joy!

Thanks again for being here.

Sending so much love and light to you all, Nicola ☀️🌟

At a time where our world has become cloaked in the shadows of so much unease, fear and uncertainty.

The time for you to sparkle your brightest and most beautiful has never been more needed!

Please know that your very presence brings so much light, love and comfort to so many souls who need some steadiness at this time, bringing them the hope they need to gain a foothold on their ascent to finding their own truths.

So shine bright dear ones, transmit your goodness out into our tired world, reminding all of us that we do have the power to change the trajectory of our lives and our collective humanity.

That tiny seed of belief will germinate, and will nourish our inner resources to build our trust in the power of each small step forward truly being enough.

This poem emerged from the sorrow, regret and guilt that gripped me within bereavement, feeling as though I had not fully savoured, as much as I could have, those precious moments I was blessed to share with my late Father.

These moments, just like sunsets, do not last for very long, yet are captured by the cameras of our hearts to dwell within us forever, the love and connection shared subsequently drawn from for comfort, in the desperation and finality of loss.

The sky provides us with so much beauty, endless warmth and the soothing light of grace, and all we have to do to receive them is let go.

To offer up and surrender our loss to the heavens so we might receive the ethereal presence having been returned to.

As excruciating as some endings are, we can take this light within us to find our own meaning, our very own beauty in them.

The beauty of that fond farewell, its heartbreaking preciousness which nourishes us with each cycle around the sun, reminds us that even though the moment has past, the memories and love it scattered in its wake, will last, as dependably as the sky itself, for all eternity.

Sweet Soul,

Pause for a moment to fully take stock of all you have overcome and survived in your life.

In the face of adversity you rise, you bloom and you shine.

The tears have long since dried and yet the tracks they leave behind are your wise reminder.

That you have met life.

Much love as always ☀️🧡

🦋 We can learn a very beautiful lesson from these delicate creatures.

🌦️ To listen to our body when it’s crying out for rest.

🦋 By heeding these signals within our felt sensing, and overt cues from our bodies, which ask us to tune in and notice a pause is desperately needed.

🌦️ Especially during life’s storms.

🦋 We then honour ourselves by providing this sacred recuperation time, nurturing and healing our tired beings.

🌦️ To prevent irreparable harm and damage to our mental, emotional, spiritual and physical wellbeing.

🦋 For we all deserve rest and once the storms have passed we can always fly again.

Carl Sagan is referring to the vastness of our universe and the pinpricks of space our civilisations take up within it, such smallness amongst infinity and yet all of it is bridged by love.

Many in their individual worlds are struggling to keep their proverbial ships afloat within the day to day stresses of life, whilst navigating through the waters of a pretty broken world, as the wounds incurred along life’s way are tended to.

Through all of this, the one constant we have which dwells within us all, however obscured it may have become at this time, is love.

With many having endured the wages of life and trauma, love can feel scary, its absence becoming a prison, feeling like something unobtainable, tainted and something just not meant for us…

Yet paradoxically it holds the power to heal and reunite us with our lost selves, even within this lost world we are all trying to find our way back from.

Reaching out within this darkness to find a hand to lead us back to love, can also bring hope and new possibilities, discovering ourselves anew, one step at a time.

So whatever life and the world at large may throw at us, it’s so important that we never stop believing this, we never stop believing in love 💛

Many of us were trained in childhood to not dwell on our emotions, to ‘be a brave girl or boy’ ‘suck it up’ and in many cases this followed us into our school days and beyond and if left unnoticed, can be passed down through the generations.

Why this reluctance and fear to feel?

It’s far easier to avoid, distract and extinguish our feelings with addictions than to face them head on and understand them, which is why many do this and may also be ‘therapy avoidant’.

Facing these often terrifying emotions, the experiences they are attached to and the anxiety they’ve caused is essentially the main role of therapy, making sense of them, acclimatising to them, understanding and eventually reincorporating them as resillience, wisdom and truth, to enable clients to live a more fulfilled and satisfying life.

On reflection, having our emotions validated, heard and responded to in healthy ways in infancy and childhood would have been the ‘therapy’ received in our teens and/ or adulthood today, those self soothing inner resources would be in place, so a need for a therapist to provide these essential components, wouldn’t be there.

I would estimate, most of the clients we support at varying degrees, are in need of reparative support, a reinforcement of autonomy, empowerment, resilience and self compassion to reacquaint or maybe even introduce them for the first time to their fully functioning self, where trusting themselves is central and the relationship to self is strong.

The process takes as long as it needs to take and requires determination and courage, clients may also end therapy and return when they’re ready to continue, as healing from deeply repressed emotions and experiences is not linear.

The therapist and good enough parent analogy, is one of dependability a constant and trusted person, a fortifying presence who models boundaries and a valuing of self.

☀️ The Origins Of My Practice Name ☀️

Warming Rays Psychotherapy was born of a feeling, with my lifelong vocation to become a therapist having been fulfilled, along with lived experience of the worst life brings, I was armed with a survival kit to share with others that I never asked for but nonetheless have come to really appreciate!

The name came before everything else, a few years before I even set up as a private practitioner.

I remember the day Warming Rays emerged as if it was yesterday.

I was sitting quietly contemplating just what the therapeutic relationship felt like to me, how my body felt when a client began to emerge from and grow within the most intolerable pain and experiences, within the loving environment I was able to provide them.

This warm glow, much like how the sun feels, emanated throughout my body, beginning up from my feet filling me with immense warmth and serenity, it truly felt like the warming rays of the sun and it was such a beautiful and special moment that it made me cry.

This is how the process feels for me, it’s very personal, as I truly give my heart.

My career was born of a deep inner knowing of how it feels to have met life, a desire to carry the love and care that I received at the time forward to others, with the knowledge of how isolating, terrifying and debilitatingly shameful a traumatic, life altering childhood experience, can be.

Warming Rays emerged from my heart, it feels like sunshine because that’s how true empathy feels.

Being in therapy with me will not only help you come home to yourself, but as you emerge from and through your pain, you’ll notice, session by session..

☀️🧡 You will be coming home to love 🧡☀️

May you be safe to walk through this world, knowing that you matter ✨✨

Feeling as though we are safe within our world and that we matter are so essential for healthy mental wellbeing.

The same can be said within the therapy room, as I aim to convey a sense of safety, value and worth towards my clients. Session by session, this becomes instilled within, born of our bond and a mutual regard.

I don’t hide how much my clients matter to me and as a result, it does seem to be one of the most potent healing components within the therapeutic process.

So no matter what life throws at you, please know you truly do matter ✨✨

🩵 Love is as boundless as the ocean, as deep as eternity, so much about its depths and hidden passageways are yet unknown.

🩵 It sweeps up everything in its path, carrying us forwards, backwards, and if we don’t learn how to swim it will wipe us out altogether.

🩵 Love is eternal, our most precious commodity, bringing us more than anything material ever can.

🩵 We become the energy we exist within in life.. and for most of us it’s love.
