The Journey has re-begun!

Welcome to my second blog! (Written originally February 2021)

I have been procrastinating for years to justify a blog and if I ever have anything of nourishing quality to say or share… Apparently I do! So says my boyfriend and friends.

I have had a traumatic (some self-inflicted) 10 years and have been on a journey of personal and spiritual growth.

I may go into detail (one day), when I am feeling brave and have the courage to share what I have experienced, like so many of you wonderful souls. We are truly never alone in our times of need and despair!

From emotional, verbal abuse from an employer, general mental health challenges of mild OCD, hormones, depression, anxiety, PTSD, my brother killing himself, caring for my elderly Gran in her last few months, my Pa suffering from ME/depression for 9 years growing up (thankfully healed), my Ma having two menopausal/stress induced psychotic breakdowns (thankfully healed also!), usual men stuff and life in general. We’ve all got our story of ups and downs that is the roller-coaster of life!

So, with the need to get through all those experiences I was in search of finding the tools like talking/writing therapy, meditation, yoga, mindfulness, hours of podcasts, books etc to get me through it. I have come across some real nuggets of nourishment in these years and I feel it’s only right to share all these tools and incredible people with you all. I hope to inspire, help you find the love, permission and drive to nourish yourself with anything I have to share. I hope it brings you laughter, joy, sparkle, warmth, compassion and most of all ignites that flame of flow and creativity inside you as it has me.

I love to spend my time with loved ones, as relationships and connections are so very important, time in nature, painting, sewing clothes and embroidery, feeding and nourishing my mind and soul with books and podcasts.

I give you permission to nourish yourself with self-care and self-compassion.

Love & Peace
