Hi All 😀 As we make our descent toward the colder seasons I'm aware that part of me is looking forward to more time indoors being creative. I usually dread the cold of winter, but this year life is looking brighter. Creatively, there's a lot to do and it's getting easier to do it.  I'm better able to leave the past behind me and get on with my days. During the summer just gone I even managed to balance a term of dance classes with my writing life. Bellydance Classes Thursday night dance class has been a personal tradition since my early dance class days. It's a life affirming practice that helps to undo the hours spent sitting at computer and notebook. Majickal Bellydance is more than exercise, it's like a moving meditation. The benefits are spiritual as well as physical and mental. I'll be teaching a new term of classes at Seville Community house from April 19. Details HERE . On the topic of life balance: Due to anxiety and PTSD, I have had to

Introducing: The Love of the Universe

The moment I have been working toward for many years has finally arrived. At this early stage, ironically, I'm feeling a little lost for words. I'm sure the reality of my new situation will settle in gradually. Rather than the 'big bang' I had anticipated, my first book launch feels more like a rising hum.  The journey has just begun...  I wish to extend a  HUGE thank you to all of the readers of this blog. 💚   Your visits helped support my spirit through the long journey of writing a book.

I'm in book writing mode at the moment. So my posts may be a little shorter than usual. My last blog post about spell crafting has proven popular. For me, it was the most empowering thing I learned in witchcraft class. I'm pleased to pass it on. I hope it is used to write spells creating more loving, empowered lives. This week I'm giving readers a little blessing I often use. It is designed to be a bed time prayer. It has a number of purposes: It affirms that the body is safe to go to sleep. It tells the brain to switch off and allow sleep. A blessing to offer protection through the night. A non-invasive way to quickly involve others in the blessing. A way to switch off from worrying about others. Bed Time Spell/Prayer Safely through the night I sleep Myself, my loved ones, Blessed Be. To further empower the spell, imagine yourself and your loved ones encased in an egg shaped orb of light. The visual image and the words together will supercharge

Candle Meditation

Meditation is as easy as breathing. Many people feel they cannot meditate, but by keeping things really simple, I believe anyone can meditate. There are a huge range of meditation practises suitable for different purposes. If meditation has been difficult in the past it may mean that the style wasn't suitable for you. Meditation is suitable for anyone if the style is a good match. This article will introduce two styles. Although simple, they are both potent meditations, the first for practise in mindfulness and the second meditation to promote visionary ability. How Can Meditation Help? Rather than being a practise for monks and yogis of times gone by, meditation is more important than ever. Human consciousness is increasingly stressed and challenged by rapid change in the way we live our daily lives. In the past it took time to satisfy our curiosities as we reached into the world toward limited options. In the present we are bombarded by information every day from a variety o
