Cosy Snug Serenity

Sending you all lots of loving and healing energy tonight. I hope you were able to take an hour for yourself to receive the Reiki healing. ♥️🪶🍄

Hello, my lovely humans. I know it's the second week without our usual Tuesday evening meditation and sound bath, but I hope you're still keeping up with your weekly practice. Remember to prioritise yourself, allowing time to heal, let go, and embrace what the universe reveals. On Tuesday at 7 PM, find a peaceful spot, relax, and listen to some soothing music. I will be sending distance healing from Albania at that time. Sending you love and light ♥️🪶🍄

I'm off to explore sunny Albania for a couple of weeks. While I'm away, I'll be keeping up my meditation and Reiki practice, expanding my mind with a new book “letting go”. Even though I’m traveling, my routine of mindfulness, self-discovery, and meditation won’t stop—it’s now part of my everyday life, keeping me grounded and connected to the earth.

Sometimes, I stray from the path, but I always return to my daily practice. This week has been great for releasing blockages; I’ve felt it deeply with headaches and tears. Though it can be exhausting, it’s a good thing—just ride these feelings and let them out.

So, my lovely humans, keep up your practice, listen to what your mind and body are telling you, and I’ll see you when I get back, ready and refreshed for our weekly classes. I’m looking forward to meeting the wonderful Albanian people and exploring their country, and I’ll be sharing any insights I have while I’m away.

Stay safe, everyone. Love and light. 🌿🪶♥️🍄

When I finish my day job and come home to hold space for a client, it's incredibly fulfilling. Grounding myself, escaping from work, and then being able to deliver the energies and sound to heal and ground someone else who needs it is truly rewarding. I am so grateful for this space, my clients, and the wonderful energy of the universe. 🪶🍄♥️

What a perfect way to set yourself up for the week ahead: a group meditation session, Reiki healing, and sound healing with lovely humans to align your energy points while grounding yourself with roots to Mother Earth. Breathe in renewal, peace, and harmony, and exhale stress, anger, and anything that no longer serves you back into the earth. Say your affirmations for the week ahead: "I am prepared and capable. I approach this week with a positive mindset. I am open to new opportunities and possibilities." ♥️🪶🍄

Yesterday, I spent the entire day in my favorite place—a sanctuary where both new and old souls find freedom, connection, and release. I call it my Cosy Snug Serenity. This place welcomes many wonderful souls, all with good intentions. Today, I gave it a thorough cleaning, rejuvenated my crystals, and rearranged everything to prepare for hosting more beautiful beings. I aim to help them stay grounded and continue growing on their journeys. Love and light to everyone. 🪶♥️🍄

Thank you to this beautiful human Liz Statto Kearslake. This book you got for me is absolutely amazing, it was so thoughtful of you, thank you. I can't wait to take you on an adventure for a wild swim and walk with the rest of the wild swimming group. It's been incredible to see you grow into the person you are today. Keep challenging yourself and continuing to grow. You're amazing. ♥️🪶🍄🍃

What a lovely evening we had! It was a special night filled with meditation, Reiki, and sound healing 🌙, all aimed at sending intentions, happiness, and positive energy to our bride-to-be.

We gathered together for an alternative hen do, where each of us wrote heartfelt messages for the bride and shared a delightful picnic of snacks. It was a wonderful opportunity to chat, bond, and give the bride the healing and support she deserves as she embarks on her new journey.

Thank you, you beautiful humans with amazing energies, for coming and helping to make the celebrations truly special. ♥️🪶💐💍

THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED

In some spiritual beliefs, the Buck Moon is seen as a time of growth, renewal, and regeneration. Bucks shed their antlers each year and grow new ones, symbolizing personal growth and transformation as we shed old patterns and beliefs to evolve.

On Sunday, July 21st, from 2 pm to 4 pm, we will host a beautiful Buck Moon ceremony at Cosy Snug Serenity. The Buck Moon, named for the time of year when male deer grow their antlers, signifies growth and power.

The ceremony will start with a guided meditation, where we will light a candle and set our intentions. This meditation will be accompanied by the rhythmic sounds of my shamanic deer drum. The drum, a sacred tool in shamanic practices, helps to connect with the spirit world and call in the energy of the deer to guide us under the Buck Moon.

- We will light a candle on the altar.
- Set an intention for the ritual through meditation.
- In your journal, write down how the fullness of summer makes you feel strong, capable, and powerful.
- Reflect on what brings joy to your heart, and make a list or draw these things on the page.
- Hold your journal page and read it over, allowing the joys to fill you with the power of summer.
- Then, using a gold paintbrush or pen, write or color the following statement:

Recite the statement. Spend a few silent moments imagining yourself as a magnificent stag with a beautiful rack of antlers, standing in a clearing as the summer sun sets and the Full Buck Moon rises. Feel your power and take it into your heart.

My lovely friend Lis Rachael a witch, will cast a spell and help you create your spell jars, which you will seal with a candle and take home.

All materials, including the journal page and spell ingredients, will be provided. You just need to bring a jar.

Refreshments will be served. The cost is £20, and there are limited places available. I will be asking for payment two weeks before the event. DM if you would like a place. 🪶🍄♥️

June is now fully booked. July dates will be coming soon ♥️🪶🍄

What an incredible session today! Thank you to all the beautiful souls who joined tonights healing meditation. We connected deeply with the loving energies of the universe and Mother Earth, embraced the soothing vibrations of crystal bowls, and shared an amazing journey of life, love, and connection. 🌿✨

Your presence and energy made it truly special. Let’s carry this healing and peace forward. ♥️🪶🍄🌀

I can feel the vibration frequency still in the room. How gorgeous. 🎵

Got my toes festival-ready today with a little self-care pampering, even treated myself to a fresh coat of nail polish. Huge thanks to Tarnia for creating such a wonderful place The Little Retreat. I always leave feeling pampered and spoiled. Absolutely loving my new toe nails, thanks for the fantastic suggestion as always and the purple energies. And now, what about your self-care plans for this week? Don't forget to schedule some "me time" in your diary, just like you would any other commitment. Your well-being matters, so make sure to prioritize it. Wishing you all a fantastic weekend, you lovely humans! ♥️🪶🍄

Good morning !

This oracle card seems to convey a powerful message about transformation and self-discovery. The princess's journey through the neglected garden symbolises her journey into the depths of herself, facing challenges and uncovering hidden truths (represented by the decaying undergrowth and the brilliant emerald stone). The stone speaking to her could represent inner guidance or intuition. The dark corridor and the slamming door suggest moments of fear or uncertainty, but her courage to move forward leads her to a place of beauty and familiarity, signifying growth, renewal, and the rewards of embracing change.

When we choose to close the door on chaotic situations, it grants us the opportunity to heal, evolve, and gain wisdom. Though it may evoke fear and vulnerability, the journey of healing and growth prepares us to step through the next door with renewed perspective. Eventually, we revisit familiar circumstances, but through a lens illuminated by our growth and learning. 💚

Good morning everyone !

The legend: This oracle card tells the story of Penelope and her beloved puppy, Pickle. They share a deep bond throughout Penelope's college years and beyond. When Pickle eventually passes away in her arms, Penelope is heartbroken. Her friends, not understanding her grief, suggest she should simply move on. However, Penelope values her deep love for Pickle and recognizes that her grief is a natural This card likely signifies the importance of honoring your grief and acknowledging that the depth of your love makes the pain of loss worthwhile. It encourages you to give yourself time to heal and reassures you that, in due course, you will be ready to open your heart again. It also serves as a reminder that true love and connection, despite the eventual pain of loss, are precious and valuable.

Be grateful for what you've loved and lost, and have faith to keep your heart open to receive what you need. ♥️

When someone asks about my self-care routine, I tell them I have a wonderful gong bath with Catherine Shaw Holistic Therapies. A gong bath is a form of sound therapy where gongs are played to create vibrations that help relax and rejuvenate the mind and body. I love giving meditation and healing to all you lovely souls, but I also need to recharge myself. After a long day of work, managing a general practice, and taking care of a business, staff, and family, it can be quite a strain. The gongs help shift my energies and make me feel grounded. I truly love it.

By taking care of myself, I can better guide and encourage you to look after your own self-care. Remember to set your boundaries and schedule time for yourself in your diary. You are worth it. ♥️🪶🍄thank you Catherine Shaw

In a world where minds often feel lost,
We find solace in self-care, no matter the cost.
Through moments of meditation, we learn to heal,
In the quiet spaces where our hearts can feel.

Guided by gentle breaths, we find our way,
In the stillness of each passing day.
With each exhale, we release the pain,
And embrace the peace that remains.

Healing comes in many forms, it's true,
But it starts with caring for me and you.
Let's hold each other in kindness and grace,
And make mental health a sacred space. ♥️🪶🍄

Good morning lovely souls

The legend in this oracle card conveys a message about finding balance between joy and sorrow. It illustrates a situation where a celebration is happening, such as a child's birthday, despite an underlying grief due to the loss of a loved one. The adults choose to focus on the joy of the birthday for the child's sake, even though they are feeling sorrowful inside.

The message encourages the reader to acknowledge and honor both emotions. It suggests that it's possible to experience happiness and sadness simultaneously, and that sometimes we put on a brave face to ensure that joy and normalcy continue for others, especially children. The blessing at the end honors both the departed friend and the birthday child, recognising the coexistence of life's joyous and sorrowful moments.

Treasure moments whatever they may be. Some may be happy, some may be sad but they’re all your moments and they take you in the path you need to be. ♥️🪶

Love Glossop

Good morning,

The card pull today:

The legend: black and white are in heaven, waiting to go back to earth (yet again) to complete their work. When they meet and fall in love, they learn that they will no be they’re on earth. In previous lives, their love was ill-fated. They appeal to the council of great spirits - who turn down their request to be together. But the great servant appears and grants their wish. Together they accomplish greater things than they could have done alone.

This card depicts the eternal cycle of reincarnation and the power of love transcending lifetimes. The legend of the black and white souls illustrates their journey through multiple lives, where their love was always thwarted. Despite the council's denial, a benevolent force intervenes, allowing them to unite. Together, their love becomes a force for profound achievement, emphasizing the transformative power of love and unity.

Remember united we can achieve anything. ♥️

Every month, I lead a meditation session for my staff at the practice. Our medical administrators, nurses, and doctors tirelessly provide the best care for our patients, yet they also deserve moments to care for themselves. Witnessing them take this time to reconnect, heal, and rejuvenate for the week ahead fills me with gratitude. It's truly a great way to start a Monday, setting the tone for the week ahead with clarity and calm. I feel honored to provide them with this opportunity. ♥️

During Mental Awareness Week, let's remember the importance of looking after ourselves, both mentally and emotionally. It's okay to prioritise self-care and take the time to nurture our mental well-being. Whether it's practicing mindfulness, seeking support from loved ones, or engaging in activities that bring us joy, let's make self-care a priority every day. Remember, you are worthy of love, kindness, and compassion—especially from yourself.

To kick off the week, we had a lovely Sunday at the cosy snug serenity, immersing ourselves in deep meditation on self-worth, kindness, and setting intentions. While sipping on cacao and journaling, we were treated to a beautiful sound bath to conclude our practice. After the class, Catherine Shaw Holistic Therapies gave an introduction to the gongs, showing everyone how they work—truly amazing! Witnessing the kindness and self-love shown by everyone present was inspiring—a testament to the importance of nurturing ourselves. It was a wonderful start to Mental Health Week, highlighting the significance of self-care. ♥️🪶♥️ you are all worthy of love and kindness, to receive and give.

Good morning

Legend: Green acorn is asking to star in a fable by Kelly the green dragon. He was promised top billing, but in the end, he sad, his best work never made final edit. Now he doesn’t even have a speaking part. He feels betrayed by dragon. But green acorn is not resentful; being in the fable landed him a job on display at a museum. He insists he is content. But we can see denial and the underlying anger.

This oracle card suggests that you may be experiencing a situation where you feel overlooked or undervalued, much like the green acorn in the fable. Despite promises of recognition and importance, you may find that your contributions are not being acknowledged or appreciated as you had hoped. This can lead to feelings of disappointment and even betrayal by those you trusted.

However, similar to the green acorn finding a silver lining in being displayed at a museum, there may be unexpected opportunities or benefits arising from this situation. Despite any feelings of denial or underlying anger, you may find that you are able to adapt and find contentment in unexpected ways.

Ultimately, this card encourages you to acknowledge and address any feelings of disappointment or betrayal while also remaining open to the possibilities for growth and new opportunities that may arise from the experience. ♥️

Good morning my lovely humans. This morning I had a push to pull one of my beautiful chakra wisdom oracle cards. What is this card saying to you today.

This message suggests that today you are being encouraged to trust your instincts and remain focused on your goals, much like the wolf climbing the treacherous rocks. The card emphasises the importance of staying vigilant and not allowing distractions or past experiences to deter you from your path forward. It reminds you to rely on your inner wisdom and intuition to navigate challenges and obstacles, knowing that your instincts will guide you towards success and protection. X

I always cherish catching up with this amazing friend of mine Jeanie Mannion. We've been close pals for a long time and our journey together is always filled with new and exciting experiences. Last night was no exception. Instead of our usual hangouts, we decided to shake things up and attend a conscious rave at Victoria Warehouse.

Now, you might be wondering, what exactly is a conscious rave? Well, it's basically a combination of meditation, breathwork, and yoga followed by dancing to uplifting music. It's all about connecting with yourself and others in a mindful and joyful way.

It was definitely a departure from our usual rave nights, but the fact that we could still catch up, sip on cacao, and share our sisterly bond while staying sober and driving home afterward was a refreshing change for both of us. We're all about trying new things and embracing different experiences, just to see what they're like. ♥️🪶🍄

Beltane's call, as spring blooms bright,
Renewal's dance in firelight.
Nature's bounty, rich and fair,
In joyful songs, we all declare.

Flowers bloom, maypoles sway,
Interconnected, we all play.
Love's embrace in union found,
In nature's cycle, ever profound.

Gather 'round the bonfire's glow,
Reflecting on the ebb and flow.
Beltane's spirit, let it inspire,
Connection, change, life's endless choir.

A time to reconnect with Mother Earth and celebrate all we have and all we are going to receive. 🌷🪶🍄♥️🍃

back in the “cosy snug serenity," preparing it for my group to unwind and reconnect. Holding these sessions is a true blessing; it not only helps the lovely souls attending but also heals and grounds me. The power of meditation, Reiki, sound healing, and connecting with beautiful souls is truly something special. ♥️
