△ IMRAMA △ Dendera Temple (Hathor), Egypt A photo extract from my diary from my incredible trip through the sacred sites of ancient Egypt. Thank you to my guides. Dendera Temple felt like walking into a portal. After spending the morning in the powerful energies of the temple of Philae,…

△ IMRAMA △ The very centre of the Great Pyramid, Cairo, Egypt A photo extract from my diary from my incredible trip through the sacred sites of ancient Egypt. Thank you to my guides Stewart and Ashraf. Today was an initiation in more ways than I am yet to comprehend….
Making altars grounds me. My shamanic Mesa (essentially a portable altar not in this picture) is wrapped in the material from a baby pillow that the hospital gave my mum and dad because I came a month early and there was no mattress in the bassinet. I chose this material…
I’m so excited to be leading my Your Inner Temple Workshop in Portland this March! We each have within us an Inner Temple. A place where our soul’s whispers and intuitive senses can be felt, heard and known. Where we can drink from the sweet waters of our soul. A…
Your guidance is divinely guided. You are being called to answer the call of your soul. It might be scary, it might not make sense, but if you trust your soul’s yearnings, you will live a life beyond what your mind could possibly imagine. Answering your soul’s calling is not…
I’ve just arrived home after such a nourishing trip to upstate New York. I was there visiting my friends Eliza and Sil Reynolds and then sharpening up my shamanic skills at the Light Body School Review at Menla. A week of deep connection, learning, devoted people, delicious food, comfy beds…
The more personal it feels, the more universal it actually is. We are all innocent children looking to be seen, understood and cherished. With wounds and traumas no matter what life has dealt. Souls doing their best to be embodied. Deeply longing to belong.
This week I received the most precious email. Two women (Suzanne and Sumaa) who were introduced through an international book exchange (*googles how to be a part of one*). Suzanne sent a copy of Rise Sister Rise to Sumaa in India. After a lot of red tape, paperwork and phone calls…
As we journey deeper into the closing months of this year I am reflecting on the lifting of veils that has been this year. As Kilauea continued to erupt in Hawaii, the me too movement continued to explode on front pages across the globe. New lights have been shone on…
We live in a time where many of us have we have become disconnected from the land beneath us. Somewhere along the way a severing happened. A moment where it became too painful to stay connected. And as such we find ourselves wondering where we truly belong. Wandering around not…
If you’ve been to one of my events or are part of the Rise Sister Rise Membership you will know how influential Kirtan chanting has been in my life. After chanting for the past 10 years, last year I graduated from my Bhakti Kirtan Teacher Training I was honoured to be interviewed…
The biggest challenges are designed to at first separate you from your faith. Let them. Do not judge yourself when you question it all. When you doubt your beliefs, your devotion, your God/dess, your entire existence. It is in these times that we are meant to. It does not matter…
Soon these times of sacred birthing will be over. Soon. Soon. Soon. These moments of devastating separation, of polarity, of being wrongly accused, not accurately seen, misunderstood, scapegoated, of confusion… Soon. Soon. Soon, all will be but a breath in the winds of time. This moment matters. And soon what…
The challenge of life is to keep your heart open when you most want to close it. To let life crack you open. To open through hurt and loss. To allow what is falling away to fall away. Being human is a courageous act. A life well lived is full…
What is your soul flower? Flowers are teachers bringing in wisdom from other realms. They have healed me more than anything and are available to do the same for you. I believe we each have a particular flower than informs our soul. And through connecting with that flower it heals…
I love nothing more than a good old Netflix session after a big day creating or doing sessions. It’s my ultimate guilty pleasure. But I seem to get more and more sensitive when it comes to what I can consume these days….
I have music in my heart. Ancient mantras echoing in all four chambers. I have music in my heart. Harmonics reverberate from bone to bone. I have music in my heart. Melodies that whisper from just behind the veil. I have music in my heart. An inner rhythm pulsing…
One of the best ways to calm down anxiety running through your system is to get grounded. When we are grounded we are in our own body and able to differentiate what is ours and what we have picked up from other people….
The most significant moment of my life was the moment I got the phone call saying that my first book (Light Is The New Black) was going to be published. It marked the completion of a 15+ year journey (and perhaps an even longer soul one) from when I first…
