Messages tend to fly into my awareness at any time of the day but especially when I go walking with my Scottie dog, Charlie. They come in thick and fast, pouring from my soul and into my presence. I love them, adore their tone and comforting reminders on being human. I feel so grateful when…
Wildly Unlimited
I love the idea that to be wildly unlimited is to encompass all that you are and let it run free. To be wildly unlimited is to allow the true voices of this world, nature – spirit – humanity, to travel along side you, whispering guidance and love into your space of existence. Being unlimited…
The Longing of a Seed
A metaphor sprung up in my heart today, a metaphor to grasp the importance of choosing life according to your nature. You cannot deny the soil you are planted in, nor the air you breathe or light around you. To do so is to crush your soul. It’s time to let go and grow… The…
Rumi & Listening
Perhaps I’m a little late to grasp Rumi’s magnetic work but everyone hears the messages they need to when they’re ready. I would like to share his poem Miles of Riverside Canebed from Coleman Bark’s book Rumi, Bridge to the Soul. The news has come but you have not heard. Jealousy has changed to love….
Being Open – My Experience of Depression
As my blog is about healing and awareness, I thought I would give my perspective on a word we so often hear yet rarely understand – depression. (If you read this, remember it’s my own personal perspective based on many years of self-healing and discovery. If you can relate to it, great! If not, move…
A Tribute to Melanie Rose Killick
I read Melanie’s Blog, Dear Seamus, to refresh my sense of duty, purpose and right to honesty. Her path is a human path, a refreshingly open and honest one too. I was devastated to hear she passed away a few days ago after a long battle with cancer. Her raw honesty, love for her son…
The Importance of Writing a Diary
I love my diaries because they reflect my truth. When you suffer with depression or any kind of mental illness that convinces you that your reality is too painful to bare, a diary can help you to see outside the box. I’ve written a diary for the last 10 years. Passionately scribbling down my thoughts,…
Book Review: The Dark Side of the Light Chasers
The Dark Side of the Light Chasers: Reclaiming your Power, Creativity and Dreams This was the first book I read when I began my more serious journey into understanding what was making me suicidal and devaluing my own life at the beginning of 2015. I have spent a fortune on healers, courses, hypnotherapy, books, alternative…
Three Years Since Chemotherapy
The summer solstice always marks my anniversary since chemotherapy ended…! Why am I sharing this? Because I can! It’s been three years and yet it’s only in the last months I finally have stopped seeing ‘chemo girl’ in the mirror. Yet I never read articles about people ‘surviving’ cancer – why? Well because once it’s…
Paint is a Portal
When in the midst of self-healing, discovery and waking up to your inner potential, I recommend doing this exercise. I have no idea what led me to try it out but it worked beautifully. I am no artist but I am an avid researcher into the meaning behind our existence. Doing this exercise was a…
Back on Earth
I am filled with a sense of awe when I have visions that ‘bring me back to Earth’. I’ve spent the last 10 years wanting to get off Earth, to go home and to leave the chaos behind. In the last month I’ve came back to Earth, I’ve asked passionately for my life back and…
Leading a Double Life
Recently I have read many accounts of people’s lives before they became their true selves. Healers, leaders, entrepreneurs – all share a common theme. They were living a lie where they tried to squash their beautiful spirits into the world of logic and normality. They did everything according to the rules and then one day,…
