A New Age

  Hi everyone, In the Northern Hemisphere, the autumnal colours have been fully developed for a while now, and are beginning to tip over towards late autumn and winter, as the leaves fall. In England, we have had a glorious display of fiery colours! I am told that it all depends on the weather 😉 , and each year is different. These warming hues of orange are so welcome as the days get shorter and colder. I am adding warming spices to my cooking. I especially love smoked paprika at this time of year, and ginger. I love my hot water bottle, and my extra blankets, and my slow cooker! What are your favourite autumnal treats? In what ways you can practice excellent self-care?

  Hi everyone, How have your summer holidays been going? Have you been making time to go on trips, spend time with loved ones and have some fun? Have you been spending time outdoors appreciating sky, sun, sea and grass? Keep it Simple The simplest of nature spiritual practice is to observe nature all around you, and send a pulse of appreciation from your heart. It can take just one second! A simple thought “wow! Those clouds look pretty”, is actually a prayer of appreciation and is received. Mother Earth could do with some love right now. I want to encourage you to give these small prayers everywhere you go. Prayer is something that has real value. It doesn’t have to be a structured set of words, though it can be. It doesn’t have to be embodied in gestures which make a ritual, but it can be. You can truly keep it simple, and that love felt and sent, is received. In my understanding, love is an energy. Everything is an energy. I believe that when we pray, or send love, we “a
