A little of what you fancy....

I'm sitting here typing this and eating my favourite thing - cheese! I really am a cheese addict, those who know me well, know that this is my downfall. I cannot resist the stuff, and the smellier the better! Of course cheese has it's good and bad points. It's rich in calcium, and a small piece mid morning is the kind of protein packed snack that will keep you going till lunch time. On the other hand, it's high in fat, and not the good sort. So like everything, it's good to eat it in moderation. Something I do try.... Actually cheese is great for making magical requests. Take a knife and carve a symbol in a hunk of cheese (note I say hunk, no tiny measures for me!). Make the symbol relate to your desire, and bring the image into your mind. Imagine that you already have your request, and try and conjure up the feelings of happiness that this brings. Now eat the cheese. It's as simple as that!

Talking of moderation, I was talking to a lovely lady last night Rosie, who practics Egyptian Reiki. Sounds fascinating doesn't it? She was talking about tapping in to the Goddess Maat, and I have to agree that she's the perfect deity for helping us when it comes to balance and moderation. Maat represents peace and harmony, her symbols are the scales and the feather, and it was her job to weigh the souls after death. Sounds a bit morbid, but Maat was known for her fairness in these situations. Rosie also creates guided meditations and they sound truly inspirational. I'm hoping to listen to one of her CDs, so watch this space! She will be appearing at the Soulshine event in Nottingham on June 6th, and I think she's going to be giving a talk on Egyptian Reiki, so anyone interested should definitely go along and experience her work first hand. Tickets are now available at a bargain cost of £3, and can be purchased by email soulshineproductions@hotmail.co.uk or by calling 0115 9831340. Go on, you know you want to!!
And of course if you do, please come and say hello to me. I'll be there on the day, giving consultations and also a talk on the magical power of stories.

Have an enchanting week.

Sniffles in the Sunshine!

What a beautiful morning it is, although I'm writing this with a very thick head cold and feeling under the weather. I hate colds, just because they slow you down, and I'm the kind of person that likes to be on the go, and juggling lots of different things. Of course I still try. A little cold bug won't get the better of me, I say... but there are times when you have to face facts, slow right down, and accept that your body needs time to re-generate and heal.

Speaking of healing, the latest on the Soulshine MBS event is that they've got some great healers and therapists on board:- Sue Tribe, is a very experienced shamanic healer and past life therapist and she'll be giving a talk on her work and mini treatments on the day. There's also lots of holistic therapies, Janine Regan-Sinclair from Crystal Ki will be there. She has developed a unique system of energy healing that sounds amazing, and the wonderful Kay Tom who is an energy specialist. Kay is an expert in Chinese Astrology and will be giving a talk on the signs of the zodiac. I'm really looking forward to that. I've always been a fan of Chinese Astrology, and feel that I am very much like my sign the Rat. In fact I think rats in general get a lot of bad press, when they're quite a clever and lovable bunch!

So the next time you feel an aversion for something, whether's it's rats, mice, spiders, or just a general dislike for the common cold, take a deep breath. Place both hands on your heart chakra and feel a ball of rose coloured light spinning around, sending healing energy to every part of your body and making you see everything in a much more positive light.

Magical Blessings for a lovely chilled out week.

Well it's monday again! I say this a lot, but I can't believe how fast the time goes. I think that's obviously a good sign, it means that you're enjoying life, immersed in the present and making the most of it. Sometimes though, I do wish I could manifest more time. So when I feel like this, I take a few minutes out of the day to focus on my breathing and clear my head. Often we feel like things are going so fast because our minds are full of clutter so I try and imagine my mind like giant room. I see all my worries and thoughts in piles, and I put them in boxes. Almost like doing a tidy up. Sometimes I even imagine sweeping the debris away, the stresses that I know I don't need, the nagging worries. They all get swept out of my ears! I know that's a funny image, but it really works! Then once I've put all my other concerns in boxes, and moved them to one side, I can actually see how much space I have. This is good because it allows you time to breathe, to relax and also generate new ideas. I always remember a good friend telling me, that the Universe can only provide something when there's a space for it. I think that's very true. So for those of you on the hunt for true love this year, remember that time on your own is good. It means you can sort out what you really want and what makes you happy. The same goes for those of you looking for a job, or hoping to fulfill a special dream. The human condition means that we often panic, when we feel there is nothing going on in our world. I'm guilty of this one myself, but I realise now that these moments are precious. We all need breathing space to regenerate and re-charge our batteries, ready for the next exciting chapter in our life.

So here's to a week with lots of time to breathe, relax and come up with some sensational plans for the summer!

Magical Blessings
