Balancing Life
My healing journey with oestrogen driven cancer has forced me to bring my life into balance- and in doing that I’ve also been working to bring my hormones in to balance- which has had a positive effect in lessening my peri-menopause symptoms! Back in 2017 I listed some of the things that were helping me– but what I found was …
Healing with Colour
Crafting has been a huge part of my healing journey with cancer, mostly putting my energies in to making healing medicine drums, but my love of playing with colour and paint has resurfaced. I have always loved painting and playing with textures and colour and after completing my reiki training in 2004 I dove deep into creating soothing and healing …
Vulnerability or Over Sharing?
I’m seeing a lot ‘over sharing’ posts across social media these days, used as a way to gain more followers and ‘likes’. Vulnerability seems to be being abused and many don’t seem to know the difference between being vulnerable and over sharing.

Because I have practiced listening to my womb for so …

#vaginarevolution It’s Time We Empowered our Vaginas!!
So in my last newsletter I spoke about reclaiming my power at my cervical examination by asking to insert the speculum myself 🙂 This got me thinking about vaginal health in general, and then pondering more specifically on vaginal dryness that can happen when breastfeeding and more common when in perimenopause, menopause and beyond. I was to start this #vaginarevolution …
Radical Self Care
It was such a privilege to be interviewed by Leora Leboff, I’m a huge fan of hers and Kate Codringtons work at Woman-kind. Joining thier Commit to Kindness course got me firmly on the path of self care…. And it’s no coincidence that became the foundation for my ‘radical self care’ practice!!
