if you are interested in knowing about my background in this work, this is the blog for you. Grab a cuppa and have a read….
one thing I often forget to talk about is all the amazing training and courses I have undertaken around this work which has opened up so many doors for me. These courses have been led by some amazing Human teachers , mentors and inspirational people, who have each been so important in helping me readjust my steps to guide me back to my true path. So I am celebrating these wonderful people here in this post.
The Magic of Spinning.
If you have never experienced being sat in a quiet room as fibre is being spun I can tell you it is quite a divine experience. As the wheel spins and the whorl whirls there is an unspoken comfort that transcends space and time, it’s a rhythm that seems to sing to our souls of a time when life was simpler, not necessarily easier, but when we lived in a different way, of slowness, of reciprocity, of connection and of ancient wisdom.
Descent in to Darkness
The Sun has just started to peak over the horizon on this beautiful Autumnal morning. The golden light floods the lands around me and glistens through the last remaining leaves on the big oaks trees who circle this land. There is a sweetness that hints on the edges of the morning breeze, with the top notes of overripe berries, of rose hips, of the last flowers of summer, of apples, all held by the undertones of the rich full bodied earth, shrouded in the beauty of dampness and decay.
Grief Rituals
Having rituals in our lives can be really nourishing, particularly in times of grief. They can help us in bringing the unseen into our consciousness and, from here give us an opportunity us to honor, express and release what we are holding inside.
Grief and Sacred Rage
‘ When a woman is at home in her wildness, rooted in her instincts, and attuned to the voice of her deepest knowing, she is a formidable presence… (and) thunders after injustice’ Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run with the Wolves.
Disenfranchised Grief
Over the next few days I want to shine a spot light on disenfranchised grief. This is when our grief does not fit with the societal attitudes around grief and so is not acknowledged or recognized in the same way as other, more ‘acceptable’ grief…..
