Astara Soul

22/01/2024

Screw V-Day - we’re reclaiming it ME day!

Here it is…the first of my Sunday soul sessions at the amazing BloomingArt in Warrington town centre.

If you’ve attended classes with me before you know how I love to create cosy safe spaces for us to come together, learn and have fun.

This gorgeous morning session is designed to top up your cup and leave you feeling relaxed and ready to take care of yourself in new ways.

Due to the way I work, I only have 8 places available on this session meaning if you want a spec you’ll need to be quick! If you fancy it, drop me a message and let’s get you booked on.

I can’t wait to see you!

Hello beautiful souls. I’m just popping by to let you know that Astara is soon to be no more.

Since stopping my holistic treatments in 2020 Astara has moved and morphed in to a beautiful space for celebrating and selling crystals and I’ve had an absolutely lovely time doing that. However, times are a-changing and my life is moving in a sparkly new direction which mainly consists of me making tons of space for myself and those big dreams I hold in my heart.

Sometimes making space means letting some things go. I’m learning a life long lesson that I can’t do everything all of the time and to be honest, the relief that comes with this learning is massive.

So...for now, I’m off to look after myself, take on new challenges, learn, grow and live 💗

I’ll be dedicating lots of my time to my gorgeous new day job as well as still hanging around on socials through and (if you have any preggers friends send them my way 😉). This Instagram will soon be closed so if you’d like to continue to follow my journey albeit a bit of a different one, I’d love to see you over there.

Thank you so much for loving on my business for all this time. All of you who came for treatments and readings, and everyone who’s ever bought one of my magic crystals.

Sending you so much love and gratitude 💕 keep buying pretty things and honouring your truth.

Love you 😘

Happy Valentine’s Day beauties!

Today isn’t just about the lovers 😉 it’s also about celebrating the love you have or are cultivating for yourself. It’s about the love you have for your family and friends. For me it’s about celebrating the people, past and present, who take up space in my heart.

I’m not big on the commercial side of Valentine’s Day but I do like that it’s a collective reminder to notice the love that surrounds us.

I hope you have a beautiful day whatever you’re doing and make sure you spend some time loving on yourself first and foremost.

Our crystal magic boxes were so popular at Christmas I’ve decided to keep them 🥰

Each crystal or piece of crystal jewellery is intuitively chosen especially for the person who the gift is for. They all come fully cleansed and reiki blessed with little explanation cards for each one.

I also hand write a message or affirmation in each box with mini artwork making each one unique ✨

Hey beauties 💗

How are you?

I’ve been very quiet on here. This full moon feels like a strong one. I can feel its strong energy pulling me in making me want to rest and be alone. Anyone else?

I’ve been super irritable - always a sign I’m not looking after myself enough or not giving myself what I need. Or it may just be my energies reaction to the moon building.

The full moon is all about release. It’s about thinking about what is no longer serving you and letting. It. Go. It’s why I always like to journal around this time. It helps me to get clear about things that may be weighing me down.

The energy of this one also feels about asking yourself what you need. If you put your hand on your heart and asked yourself right now what you truly needed, what would the answer be? It might be something small or it could be something more significant. Either way, it’s good to get in touch with our needs and recognise them. Even if we don’t know how to get or achieve them just yet.

Hope you’re all doing ok in these crazy times.

Sending you lots of love as always 💗💜💗

P.S. don’t forget to get those crystals out!

And breatheeee 💜

I remember the first time
I learned to hold in my stomach
A blond-haired girl, older than me
Next to whom
I felt grotesque.
She gave me my first initiation
Into womanhood.
And ever since then
I forgot how to breathe
Innocently, like a child.
Joined the ranks
The world of women
All starved for breath.
And now I wonder
As I breathe life and hope
Into my belly
Who benefits from my power centre
Being asphyxiated daily?
Who benefits from me
Making myself as small as possible?
My womb tucked away
Never to inconvenience the world
With my life, my joy and my love.
And now she swells
With the potency of my return
And I remember
All the lovers
I hid from under the sheets
Pretending there was nothing inside me
But empty space.

Sister
Let yourself breathe.
