Reiki and EFT Tapping - Tasmania

Yesterday was very special.
What an absolute HONOUR to have been part of something that feels so big and important.
Such an incredible group of women, ahh 🥹

Happy Mother's Day to the Mamas.
I used to think this was a dumb consumerist holiday; part of me still does. Another part of me, a big part, feels that we should have statues of pregnant and birthing women everywhere, of mothers breastfeeding, of parents.. but we don't. So if there is going to be one day a year where we celebrate the mamas, I'm here for it.
When a flamingo—either male or female—is raising a young chick and feeding them crop milk, it drains them of energy and nutrients. They give so much of their food to their offspring, that their pink colouring can dull or disappear. Some even revert to black or white.
An animal where you can actually see how much goes in to parenthood.
We might, as humans, not look different on the outside but I can assure you, on the inside, we are. We give so much to our young that we definitely feel faded.

Mothering, although insanely beautiful, is a mostly thankless job. so today, I want to say thank you.
to all the mamas.
Thank you
for the countless sleepless nights,
the patience,
for how much of your body you give
the stretching
your life force.
I see you.

Mumma,
When was the last time you did something for you?

As a mum, it's easy to ignore when you are feeling burnt out. To go such long periods of time, giving and giving, but not taking the time to fill up your own cup. Without you realising, you have started to feel irritable, easily frustrated, triggered, exhausted.

When this happens, it's so easy to feel out of balance with your Bub. They are you and you are them, so when you are out of whack, so are they.

We can't just keep pouring from an empty cup. Yet how are we supposed to do something for ourselves? I personally am not relaxed when my little babe isn't with me. How can I do something for myself when I'm his food? His comfort? What if he gets hungry while I'm away?

I am now offering Mums and Bubs Reiki sessions. Bring your little babe along and you will both receive Reiki (or I am happy to just give you Reiki and Babe can come along anyway).

Reiki relaxes the body, lowers cortisol, balances your energy centres and gives you the reset you are craving.

In person sessions: $133
Distance sessions: $122

(Of course can also do Dads and Bubs, just Mums, just Dads, just Bubs, and any human out there craving some beautiful Reiki energy and a reset 💛)

[There is also the option of monthly membership, which will make the sessions less of a financial investment yet a bigger investment in yourself].

Biggest love,
Soph xx.

I spent years travelling. Searching high and low for something; running to the next place when I didn't find it. Getting lost in partying, the fear of missing out.
The pressure of seeing someone doing something, and feeling like I should be doing it too.
Feeling like life was moving too fast for me and I was desperately trying to catch up.

I was seeing incredible places, experiencing phenomenal things,
yet I felt empty.
Lost.

Have you ever watched a dog chase its tail? It runs in circles trying to grab it. Frantically running faster and faster to try and catch up to it.
When it eventually sits down, stops, it finds it tail right there.

That's what reiki felt like to me. It stopped me and showed me that my tail was right there all along.

My tail,
was me.

Reiki helped me really find myself. The me behind all the thoughts; worries; pressures; 'shoulds'.
Stillness.
The loving awareness.

If you are feeling lost, out of touch, disconnected, give reiki a try.

Now offering mums & bubs reiki sessions 💫

Mums & Bubs Reiki, Sunshine Coast

I love being a mum. .
I mean, I really really love it. I feel a level of contentment and fulfilment that I haven't experienced before.
Suddenly, my whole life makes sense.

Before I had my son, I thought that I would be mourning my old life in a way; craving the independence I once had..
I don't.
I thought I would be craving time alone, looking forward to appointments just for me,
I don't.
In fact, I feel extremely uncomfortable being away from him while he is so little.

I am bringing this up, because I am finding that in appointments, I am expected to come without my baby.
I have found it challenging to find things that are inclusive of both of us. That benefit both of us.

With this in mind, I am now offering mums & bubs reiki sessions.

I am also offering, mums & bubs Reiki Level 1 courses.

Please reach out for dates and times if this is something that you are feeling called to.

I hope your day is beautiful,
Soph xx.

Surrender.

The end of the year,
such a nostalgic time for me.
Yet filled with motivation.

I like to have a catchphrase or word/ mantra that I go in to the new year with.
Last year I had recently discovered I was growing a little human,
a body pearl.
With this knowledge, the word I chose was 'surrender'.
I have kept this at the forefront of my mind for the entire year;
surrender.
Through pregnancy,
the birth
and early postpartum.
Surrender.

I love reflecting back over the year without judgement;
all the growth,
the changes,
the similarities,
the new friends
and old friends.
The adventures,
the times of complete contentment.
The way it feels like it goes so fast,
but when you think of all that has happened
the time feels immeasurable.

This too,
shall pass;
and nobody knows what is next.
That's the beauty of it.

And yet,
with all this reflection,
all we really have
is now.

Be here,
now.

My mantra for the year ahead.

Do you have one?

what’s the biggest lesson you have learnt from lockdown? share below.
~
i really feel it is shining light on all our shadows. a marvellous opportunity to dance with our shadow selves. a massive opportunity for healing and expansion. to go inwards. to strip away the distractions.
who are you without all the distractions? can you sit with yourselves?
if you are struggling, send me a dm and i will see if i can help you or at least hold space, whatever you need ♥︎
i am here for you.

this post is not an invitation for politics and personal opinions. it’s an invitation for introspection.

if it takes less than five minutes,
do it now.

whether that be washing that dish, putting away your clothes, sweeping, taking out the rubbish. whatever it is that you feel too unmotivated to do right now, but really wouldn’t take long if you did it.

things build up and can quickly cause overwhelm. you do not know what the future holds. how you are going to feel later, what could come up in your life.

so; if it takes less than five minutes,
do it now. your future self will thank you ♡︎

it had a been challenging day. week. who am i kidding; months.
i was close to giving up. not on life, but on the business. the social media. the having faith in myself.
i’m such a positive person by nature, it always comes as a bit of a shock when that gets railroaded.
i suffered from depression and anxiety for years and years, so i’m no stranger to the dark cloud. the black dog. the heaviness. it’s just that the times between seeing it are getting longer and longer.
(how beautiful is that to think about. all the hard work really does pay off). anyway.
on one of the darkest days that i have had in a long time, some mail appeared at my door.
confusion washed over me; who knows our new address? i thought to myself.
i then saw the tag and my heart jumped in to my throat. .
i LOVE this brand. i love everything it stands for, it’s a small business, a mum of a family that lives in a bus, ethical, groovy and doing their part for the world.

i sat there just staring. but where did they come from?
as wild as this might sound, i was honestly too scared to open it incase it wasn’t the pants that i was hoping for. sunflowers, flares, seventies vibe. you know, the perfect pants.

i slowly opened up the package and - drum roll please - it was the pants.
once i saw them i immediately realised that there was only one person who could somehow know that in my ‘when i’m rich’ folder of saved photos on insta, would be many photos of these pants. who would know my size. only one person who would know how much they would mean to me.

i still don’t know how she knew, but she did. Teghs pays so much attention to people that she loves. she can see when they light up. she listens and remembers everything that is said, expressed or looked at. if it’s important to you, it’s important to Teghs.
some quick words of description that come to mind; magnificent. generous. compassionate. kind. thoughtful.
an angel. the biggest personal cheerleader you could ever imagine.
the top of my gratitude list every day.
continued in comments…

on fridays i will be offering reiki from a studio space in caloundra.

reiki is extremely difficult for me to put in to words, to fully express how magical it is.
~
for me, reiki has helped unlock parts of myself that were so deep down that i didn’t even realise they were there.
it’s helped me overcome some extremely challenging parts of my life. it’s helped me with Rhodes. it’s helped my plants grow.
i use it all day, every day. it has completely transformed my life and i am so grateful for it.

reiki was the missing piece of the puzzle. it was the answer to the questions that i didn’t realise i had. it has connected me back to spirit, to my intuition, to my higher self and my guides.
it’s helped me physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually and i cannot say enough good things about it.
~
it’s non invasive universal love and it can do no harm.

some changes coming.
i am simplifying. i have been squashing my creative drive by putting too much pressure on myself. by over committing. so i am scaling back. focusing in. working on my foundations. big things are coming, but in time. for now, my focus is community and connection ✨

it’s ok to not have all the answers.
it’s ok to not see the whole picture.
it’s ok to sit where you are and not rush to move forwards.
it’s ok to feel fear.
it’s ok.
sometimes it helps to look for the first step. the baby step.
if you can, take that.
otherwise, just be here. now. in this beautiful present moment.

don’t let anything stop you,
from chasing after your dreams.

There was once a farmer in ancient China who owned a horse. “You are so lucky!” his neighbours told him, “to have a horse to pull the cart for you!” “Maybe,” the farmer replied.

One day he didn’t latch the gate properly and the horse ran off. “Oh no! What a disaster!” his neighbours cried. “Such terrible misfortune!” “Maybe,” the farmer replied.

A few days later the horse returned, bringing with it six wild horses. “How fantastic! You are so lucky,” his neighbours told him. “Now you are rich!” “Maybe,” the farmer replied.

The following week the farmer’s son was breaking-in one of the wild horses when it kicked out and broke his leg. “Oh no!” the neighbours cried, “such bad luck, all over again!” “Maybe,” the farmer replied.

The next day soldiers came and took away all the young men to fight in the war. The farmer’s son was left behind. “You are so lucky!” his neighbours cried. “Maybe,” the farmer replied.

Whenever we interpret a situation as being a ‘problem’ or an ‘opportunity’ it shapes the way we feel, which shapes our frequency and the way that we respond.

stop labelling things as ‘good’ and ‘bad’, try to take them just as they are.

yesterday i was reminded again about the importance of opening up. when the world feels too heavy, when you feel like you’re drowning. open up. just let the words pour out. a lot of the time you’ll find that you can’t make sense of it, it feels like rambling through tears, but eventually the truth shines through. even if it doesn’t, a weight feels a lot lighter when shared.
~~~
i felt worse at first, like a vulnerability hangover, but i quickly started to feel more and more free. the amount of beautiful synchronicities that happened after i opened up, reaffirmed everything that i am saying now.
the light has started to shine through my storm.
~~
i am inconceivably grateful to have friends and a partner that hold space. that patiently hold me and support me through it all.
~~~
this is your reminder that it’s ok to not be ok.

please know that i am always here for every one of you. if you need a friend, i’m here. if you need a stranger, i’m here.
reach out.
don’t carry it alone.
big love guys,
soph xx.

crystals and stones
collected from afar
all hold a piece of my journey
all hold a piece of my home.

these are my collection of crystals and stones that usually come with me to each session [completely optional].
they are all so special to me.
all gifted to me at different times,
from different magickal souls.
or collected from far away places
that will hold a piece of my heart forever.
all coming together
to share space with you
on your journey.
your session.

they can also be present for distance reiki sessions too ✨
