Thinking about a holistic facial but not sure what it involves? Here's what to expect..

It's about technique, not expensive products. I use a gentle cleanse, then a slow, flowing massage that includes lymphatic drainage, which helps ease puffiness and leaves your skin looking fresh and glowing.

The massage also covers your neck and décolletage (the area across your upper chest and shoulders, where so much tension lives), and finishes with a scalp massage. Most people say that's the bit they never want to end.

A session takes around 45 minutes. You lie back, usually with a blanket, in a warm, quiet room, and there's nothing you need to do except breathe. You get beautiful results, but most people tell me the best part is how deeply relaxed they feel afterwards.

Any questions, just ask.

Ever noticed your skin looks tired, dull or a bit unsettled when life gets busy? You're not imagining it. When we're stressed, our bodies stay in 'go mode', and skin is one of the first places it shows. Tight shoulders, clenched jaw, shallow breathing, and a face that looks like it hasn't had a proper rest in weeks.

Skincare matters, but so does slowing down. A facial isn't just about what goes on your skin. It's about giving your face, and the rest of you, permission to switch off for an hour.

Try this tonight: warm flannel on your face, three slow breaths out longer than in, and shoulders dropped away from your ears. Small, but it's a start.

If this one landed, you know where I am.

This week, try setting one small boundary: say no to something that drains you, ask for space when you need it, or try something that matters to you. Boundaries aren't selfish; they're a vital tool for helping to maintain your wellbeing.

For anyone who is missing someone whose soul has moved on to the next part of its journey, and who believes in the spiritual path: have a read of the article below. It offers something thought-provoking about the mind field and connecting with your loved one. 💕✨🙏

Last week when I posted about my planned tattoo, my friend Debbie, who has been on this grief journey alongside me for many years, commented about our hearts and I could feel Dan's presence beside me as I read and responded. I knew he had something to say on matters of the heart as he impressed me with the Phil Collins song... Two Hearts, the lyrics of which refer to two hearts living in just one mind 💕
So later, at the coffee shop, I tuned into Dan, as I often do and I asked him...
"What is it that you'd like to share Dan, regarding two hearts living in just one mind? Something you impressed upon me when I was replying to Debbie's comment this morning."

This is what he said... 🥹
"I will speak in reference to us, Mum, though many will also relate because they too, have this connection with their loved ones... though some have not yet tapped into it fully.

When two hearts connect together, one this side of the veil and one the other, the one who's earth side... that's you Mum... becomes a channel of sorts through which we in spirit can communicate.
Mind is not perhaps fully understood until one crosses over. Of course, I'm still learning, but if you think of mind in terms of a shared field rather than personalising it... such as my mind, your mind, etc. you can better understand the way communication is possible between us... through mind... through thought... through vision, because we share the same field... the same MIND FIELD for a while.

It's similar to tuning into a radio station where I'm broadcasting.
It can be done through intention and setting the scene, so to speak.
In the beginning, a quiet setting is helpful so that you can hear and feel better. Then, as time progresses and the channel is kind of flowing, we can communicate more easily like we did this morning.

When you were replying to Debbie's comment, you felt me right there, didn't you? I always know when you feel my presence, and the channel between us opened.
We met in the MIND FIELD and you were able to sense, to feel, to hear what I was wishing to communicate.

It's a beautiful flow Mum.
I can see it from my side as energy, as frequency, as light.
(Here, Dan gives me an image of car headlights and tail lights on a busy, high-speed highway where there are just steams of light visible).

We are tuned into one another perfectly Mum... We are in that moment, two hearts living and communicating in one mind."

I love how Dan helps me in many different ways, to understand how this communication between us is possible🥹

Booking your first reflexology session and wondering what to expect? Here's how it goes..

You stay fully clothed, just shoes and socks off. You settle back on the therapy couch, usually with a blanket, and the room is warm and quiet. I'll start by holding and gently warming your feet, then work through them with slow, steady pressure. It's not a foot rub, and it's not ticklish. If anything feels tender, I'll ease off, and you're always in charge of the pressure.

Some people feel deeply relaxed, some get a bit chatty, and some fall asleep before I've finished the first foot. All of it is fine. Afterwards, most people feel calm and relaxed. I'd suggest a glass of water and taking it easy for the rest of the day if you can.

Nervous about having your feet touched? You're not alone, and I'll always talk you through the process first.

Courage isn't about having no fear; it's about showing up honestly when you're afraid. Letting yourself be seen, with your doubts, your needs and your imperfections, takes more bravery than any show of strength, which is why vulnerability is the truest measure of courage.

Your feet carry you thousands of miles in a lifetime, and most of us only think about them when they hurt. They're on the go from the moment you get up, squashed into shoes, standing on hard floors, and rarely thanked. No wonder they hold so much tension.

Reflexology is a gentle way of giving them some attention. Many people say it's the first time they've properly switched off in weeks, and it often starts with something as simple as having their feet looked after.

Try this tonight: pop a tennis ball on the floor, roll it slowly under each foot for a minute or two, and breathe out as you go. Take your time with any tender spots.

Your feet have earned it.

A new chapter can start right where you're standing. ✨

Sometimes you don't need a new place, just a moment to pause, soften and breathe. Usui Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive practice that invites your body and mind to settle into deep calm, helping you let go of what's weighing on you and make space for what's next. 💜

Your fresh start doesn't have to be big. It can begin with one quiet breath, right here.
