I rarely talk directly about the importance of feeding Spirit, especially the spirits of the land around us.

The reason for this is heartbreaking, it goes directly to the disconnection humans in this modern culture have to themselves, let alone to other humans…

The topic of ‘spiritual bypassing’ comes up fairly often in the work we do, particularly as we have students with two different world views which bring polar perspectives on this matter…

I haven’t shared any photos or details from my burial initiation this weekend, and I won’t be, but thought I’d share just this one with you as the big smile on my face as I make my grave put me in mind Mellissa Seaman’s words when I was a guest on her show…

It’s funny… the seemingly more challenging the initiations of the shamanic path my soul chose (believe me, my human did not choose it!) become, the more I see the truth of the words of one of my favourite quotes in the world…

As we close the doors to Waking The Wild Medicine ‘22, it felt timely to do a post like this (for the first time since 2019!)

I am not driven.

I don’t have strong will power.

I’m not Little Miss Commitment.

I’m about as flowing, “Oh look: shiny object!”, changeable, “Oooh, new idea!”, and capricious as it’s possible to be.

If I ever give the impression that I’m done… done learning, done integrating my shadow, done mastering my art, done understanding who I am and what I’m here for… then please allow me to disabuse you of that notion now.

One of my longest running rituals is that of working with oils. I’ve used some form of oil cleansing most of my adult life and then more consciously adopted the Oil Cleansing Method some ten years or so ago.

I’ve been pondering what International Women’s Day means to me, if anything, and therefore what to say, if anything.

Like many autistic people, I’ve often been told I’m “too honest”. Lies feel like barbed wire on my skin, even so-called white ones. Half-truths make me feel like I can’t breathe.

My deepest devotion, my most powerful work, and my truest medicine is the one I speak about the least publicly.

The biggest and most beautiful double rainbow I’ve ever seen (the photos don’t come close to doing it justice), at the end of the rainbow was our house… and on 22.02.22!

I rarely share “money results” from our clients and students because they can be a distraction from what’s most important but I’m going to do so now because this is a good example of what’s most important.

For many years, I believed I wasn’t a people pleaser, a rare breed – especially as a woman, and there’s some truth in that…

This photo of me with my tree was taken on a summer afternoon last year. It was balmy and it was balm… warm, soothing, languorous.

As we’re talking to the magical people who are called to Waking The Wild Medicine, we’re noticing that so far there’s been more women than men.

Getting good with the Dark… with death, with shadow, with the earth, with fear, with blood, with the unknown… is the part of the path that most of us resist the longest.

People often ask me how I manage to fit it ALL in… the ceremonies, the circles, the rituals, the reading, the creating, the learning, the

There was a point, five years ago, when I consciously devoted myself to living from soul. I declared it aloud to my coach. It was one of the scariest choices I’ve made, not least because I didn’t really know what it meant or what it would require of me.
