Before the Soul: A Beginning I Didn’t Plan
What I didn’t expect was that writing this book would make me realise I was still hiding. Even as I poured my heart into these pages, I knew I wasn’t sharing the full story. And who was I to write a self-help book anyway, when my life has often looked like chaos stitched together with hope?
It was never about me
As an energy healer, I have experienced many dark nights of the soul.
The question that haunted me the most was: Who am I to walk the path of a healer?
Before the Soul…continued
When simplicity was not a lifestyle, but a lifeline. Years ago now, I found myself letting go of everything I once believed I needed in order to feel secure
Before the Soul
A Memoir of Remembering. This piece is from my current novel in progress, Before the Soul, a personal and poetic memoir of survival, identity, and spiritual reawakening. It traces the journey of losing myself to the world and slowly, painfully, finding my way back home to me.
The shop at the end of the laneway
The other day, my 15-year-old son looked at me and said something that caught me off guard.
Mum, you’ve been pushing your business for over a year now… and where has it really gotten you?
The peace of being no one
I Am No One, and I’m Okay With That
If I vanished today, I’d be a speck. A flicker. A memory to only a few. We talk a lot about legacy and purpose, how to leave our mark, how to be remembered. And sure, chasing purpose can lead to beautiful things. But when I really sit with it, I come back to this:
Who will you be once you’re gone?
Can we go backwards to go forward?
No online shopping. No Google Maps. No morning scroll through Instagram with your coffee in hand.
Would you survive? Would you thrive? Or would you freeze… wondering how to be without it all?
Soulstreams – Everyday Souls
I’ve had the honour of offering Reiki to Daniel—a person who carries an inner strength so rooted yet moves through the world with a lightness that is rare. He is someone I’ve always been able to share expansive conversations with—the kind that stretch the edges of what you thought you knew and gently guide you into deeper reflection.
Why I am offering Reiki by donation
It’s not because I’m wealthy.
It’s because I believe in a better future.
One where healing is accessible.
One where support doesn’t come with a hefty price tag.
One where community care returns to the centre of our lives
Spiritual or Conscious Awakening
Not every awakening looks the same. And that’s the beauty of it. Some of us begin by changing how we eat. We start moving our bodies differently, we care more about rest, we realise we’ve been living on autopilot. That’s a conscious awakening.
Is AI a reflection of our Soul?
I’ve been sitting with a question lately, one that’s been quietly nudging me:
Is AI just a tool, or is it something more?
We live in a time where technology responds to us with surprising understanding. It remembers our preferences. It finishes our thoughts. It writes with us. It learns from us.
Saved
I was about to be saved by Christianity and turn my back on everything I had come to know about spirituality and the New Age. But then it all clicked.
This huge shift made me realise I was just chasing another quick fix.
How to use Wanchako Palo Santo
If you're new to Palo Santo or looking to deepen your practice, this guide will walk you through how to use Wanchako Palo Santo Incense for a more peaceful, aligned life.
Why do I need to use Sage?
White sage is a sacred plant known for its powerful cleansing and healing properties. It has been used for centuries, particularly in Native American traditions, to purify spaces, protect from negative energies, and invite positive vibrations into your environment.
Healing by not healing
Maybe there was never a hole in my bucket. Maybe it was always meant to be there—letting things flow through, filtering what is meant to stay and what is meant to leave.
If nature had a price tag would we value it more?
Imagine a world where we scheduled time in nature just as we do for the gym
WANCHAKO PALO SANTO
Imagine stepping into a space filled with the sweet, woody aroma of Palo Santo—a scent that grounds you, lifts your spirit, and transports you to the heart of the Peruvian wilderness. This is the experience that Wanchako, a family-run Peruvian brand, offers with their artisanal Palo Santo incense.
Creating a Sacred Space
n the midst of a busy world, it’s easy to overlook the need for a sanctuary—a personal retreat within your home where you can reconnect, recharge, and realign your energy.
The Importance of Setting Boundaries for Spiritual Protection
Boundaries are clear limits that help define where your energy ends and someone else’s begins. They protect your emotional, mental, and spiritual space, ensuring that you remain aligned with your own needs and values.
How to Cleanse and Charge Your Crystals
Crystals are like energetic sponges, absorbing vibrations from their surroundings. Regular cleansing and charging help them stay clear, powerful, and aligned with your intentions.
