We all have different practices that align with our being. For me I connect most deeply with Mantra meditation and chanting.
I'm looking forward to sharing some of my favourite chants on the weekend retreat at Purelands this weekend. My trusty harmonium will be joining us too.
Om Shanti 🪷🙏🏼📿

The twilight hours—morning and evening—call us to make the journey back to our inner self. That is why the Vedas sing: “O pair of divine powers, Night and

✨️I am really excited to share a little project that is very close to my heart.✨️

I am joining forces with a local Ambassador team to create Care Bags for women supported by Women's Aid in Dumfriesshire & The Stewartry.

Women's Aid supports women and children whose lives have been affected by domestic abuse. When a woman has to leave an abusive situation, she may have very little with her sometimes, only what she can carry.

I, personally, have had support from Women's Aid in the past when pregnant and I worked in Social Work for many years, one of my go to places was Women's Aid in Dumfries, whether to drop off donations, take a family fleeing there or to check in with families I was working with, or partaking in workshops & support services with my local families. One thing they always needed….was donations, and not money, the essentials that women & children may need if they flee with nothing. This could be basic hygiene products, to clothes, bedding & towels and non perishable food.

🌸 Our Little Bags of Kindness

Each bag will contain £20 worth of Organic self care products, along with a few extra little treats to make it feel really special.
For example:
✨ Deodorant
✨ Body Wash
✨ Lip Balms
✨ Plus some extra treats and thoughtful kindness items

These products will be from Tropic & Neals Yards Remedies, to give Women the luxury of high end organic & naturally derived products.

My Personal Donation - I will be donating £20 to fill one bag, the canvas bags to fill, and I will also be adding extra treats & items such as:
✨ Diaries/Notepads/Pens
✨ Sanitary Products
✨ Tea Bags

✨️As a THANK YOU - ANY donations you make will be deeply appreciated and as a Thank you you will receive £5 OFF a Sound Journey or 1:1 Appointment with me. *Discount cannot be used with a Class Pass

If you donate, send me a quick message or email ([email protected]) and I will send you the discount code.

🩷Would you like to help?🩷
You can make a contribution towards a care bag:
£5 • £10 • £20
Every donation, whatever the amount, helps to create more bags and reach more women.
