Embodying certain movements with other sensory (tactile and energtic) stimulations-paint and sound allows a flow state within and energy meridians start to open and connect expressing a great sense of calm, release and reset emerges.

This month's newsletter weaves Quantum vibes (music and creativity reflections from Berlin), Reiki 1-1s, Reiki shares, Studying help, upcoming group Exhibition-The Shade Of You (Private View Thursday 26th-6-9pm-all invited) and a closing with a sharing of resources and inspiration.

As always if anything resonates, or you would like to know more about Reiki (whether its the right healing/experience for you ) or my creative practise, share your experiences with me, or perhaps any thing else that comes to your minds eye, then please, i'd love to hear from you, we could even meet for a warm cuppa if you'd like. 07908470924/sarahtrotterart@gmail.com

I hope that October has welcomed you into the birth of Autumn in a windsweptual encouraging movement followed by those crisp, crunchy smokey scentsy waftings in the air, burnt umber, carnelian orangey yellows, fiery red and grounding brown earthy tones. Along with another recent eclipse and many new and full moons on the horizon, this will be a powerful time and may affect our energy, your daily rituals, habits or routines, happenings and how we make decisions for our future-on an individual and global level. In amidst this shifting time, some may feel that there is so much loss engulfing us, with the news often sharing the social and environmental turmoil, it is hard not feel a deep sadness and disbelief towards the behaviours of humankind. Where as others find themselves dipping their toes in portals or perceptions they had not even known had existed before that offer clarity, heightened communication and a sense of enlightenment. Spiritual & universal realms will always have our backs-whether that is brought through as a message, a sign, a bodily response, a nudge, an ongoing gut feeling that feels more like extra sensory perception.

A stone i've been called to recently-strong and balanced when worked meditatively + Orange Carnelian. Ammonite/Goniatite. (sourced from Phoenix Crystal Wings, Plymouth) . Ammonite is a highly protective stone, bringing stability and structure. Eliminates negative behaviour and transforms into flowing positive energy. Encourages survival instincts. Stimulates mental processess,, especially architecture, construction, mathematics, physics and quantum physics. As represented also as the Golden Mean-allows us to easily connect with the beautiful art that nature offers us on a daily basis. On a focused bodily level-good for lungs and the limb recovery.

During these times, emotions can be fluid, raw, beautiful, confusing and exhausting. To help nourish ourselves in a disregulated time- these are the little things that help me and that I enjoy savouring moments of are movement, creative outlet (e,g, cooking, what makes your heart alive, painting, movement, writing, nature connection) spending time with trees, combined, connecting smiles that I share with strangers, at work or others I feel close to and love, sharing hugs: the act of holding someone close to you in your arm circle can offer the most yummiest reboost for your and the other's body and mind-on an inner cellular level. Hugs and Smiles are a universal language that inclusively fills compassionate cups up. You can also visually and energetically send hugs and uplifting thoughts to those that are afar-in dreams or through meditation, journalling-creating.

In whatever shift you or others feel yourself to be in, I hope that you are able to comfortably decompress, feel supported in your decisions and feel confident and accountable for your movements ....and I'll always be rooting you along the way. <3

Reflections on Quantum Computing and Music Conference:

Visual interpretations of 2 day conference, including rough portraits and waves of colour, representing, light, sound and details and patterns of pitch, rhythm and tone.

This was a 2 day event in Berlin in early October (I will share some fabulous exploring art content in November's Newsletter)
Organised and partnered by many peeps but with in depth organised by OCH & Collaborators and Plymouth University. More Info here https://omarcostahamido.com/https://indico.desy.de/event/38609/page/4475-information
If you practise in electronic music, quantum music/computing/games /tech related or just interested and would like to be part of a community offer some click candy to this circle https://github.com/Quantumland-art/community https://github.com/orgs/Quantumland-art/discussions
This was new experience. 1. Its been a mighty while since i've been to a conference and 2 I don't have extensive knowledge or used this kind of creative outlet as yet
Key Insights: I met varied peeps from scientists, physicists, IBM peeps, tech and gamers, musicians, and those that were curious. There is a lot more out there than we know-especially related to AI (which scares me yet equally offers knowledge about new technology) , musical patterns, intuition services (especially electronic or synth music). I am still very much processing the presentations and knowledge that was shared during those days. Inter-disclipinary collaboration is a huge part of growth in this area-improvisation can still remain in musical composition and personally I feel there needs to be more visually holistic and phsycologyl integrated art expressed or interalated from this....adds another element of understanding so that whole body can experience rather than just one part of you. I learnt about the first Quantum Drum- a two in one spiralled drum which now is on my list to experience and have my hands a beat with.
A little info of quantum mechanics (wiki gestured) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_quantum_mechanics
As part of me processing this vast information and performances-I took to my tools and through my outlet visually expressed part of the conference.

Sketches of the speakers who took part in the conference. Waves of colour and shapes are the sounds that were connected with the conference/speakers/performances.

Saxophone, Flute and synth/electro sounds.. 2nd day conference-performance.

2nd day-Performances, synth sounds, electronic, multi tonal, multi -harmonic . Closed eyes process, just hands and arm movements

Electrostatic, signal noise, frequency baselines, multi instrumental-basically a combined of organised chaos sounds and vibrations

Ableton sound synthesiser music-this is one softest experiences I felt whilst listening to electronic sounds. Closed eyes processes.

Sharing Resources & Insights

I have been in amidst some studying (i'm studying 168hr TEFL- allow scope for working in other places-if anyone has done one of these-i'd be keen to hear you wiseries) periods recently and well, as of late , I have discovered that I am now in what you may call the 'cramming/hermit' stage. Time has crept up and once again my time blindness has made itself aware, soo I have opted for some hermit crap and tortoise head in my shell moments.

Tuning forks-I use tuning forks almost daily- they help me focus, ground and create intentional rhythm to meditation and rest and figure out what energy feels a little stuck or just needs to be seen.

I've recently been aware of past lives, during meditation, shares and varied healing modalities. These have been insightful, weaving it into my here and now has taken many alternate perspectives, confusion and different paradigms. Past lives are a crucial part of understanding certain attachments /detachments you had /have with certain thoughts/beliefs. These can make themselves aware to you in your body or how you process and respond/react to thoughts, feelings, ways of living, needs, boundaries. They are often not part of you all of the time, some experience negativity/resentment/pain when channeled in past lives or have long gap of unexplained memory loss.

During a recent share we experienced a touch of Sekhem Healing from lovely souls based in Tunisia-I was given a guide (Thoth) and many patterns seem to align especially in terms of movements, thoughts, knowledge being surfaced, certain hand symbols during sessions. These are all moved in flow - full, 'called to' way, eyes closed and present. If you feel called to, these are the resources I fell upon after experiencing sharing Sekhem.

If you made it this far, thank you for staying and being with me and I look forward to hearing your insights, thoughts.

I appreciate your time and energy and your beautiful soul.

Wishing you with the warmest of wishes,

Sarah
