Dearest Friends,
How are you? I hope your welcome into the summer has treated you with warmth from the sun and her bountiful energy of umber bright emberry rays has balmed your bod up divinely. Maybe it's ignited some spicy fires in you that has melted away the winter foggyness, burned what's no longer aligned to you and cracked opened a new blossoming of wonder, curiosity, dream, love, hope, visions. I'd love for you to share? (If you enjoy poetry, scroll to the end for Rumi's gifts)
It's been nearly a whole 12 wholesome full months since we have all connected and since I sent out my last offerings and updates. I have not forgotten about you. Truthfully, i've been bit full, both quietly and loudly digesting this, expressing processing, doing perhaps too many things everywhere at once at the moment, in-between balancing two jobs, rest, travel, long distance relationships, trying to be present with my own creative practise (little by little) and being as keen as a sprouting bean in finding a new home-which has been quite the unexpected emotional rollercoaster. As I am so grateful for all of these goings on, it's been challenging to keep up with myself and others, my energy has been opening up, stretching, boomeranging and nudges are becoming stronger. August will be a 'Breathing, Aligning and Creating' month. A return.
Over the past 6-12 months I have been exploring tantric teachings and various eastern practises. Which has been a journey to say the least, and beaitifully created space for clients who are becoming curious about this. During these sessions, I weave Reiki with movement, devotional visual mediation and creations as above. This session becomes a very sacred and safe space that its a gift for all of you, not just parts of you. Inspired by some of the sessions I have given in Reiki with wonderful clients, circle oracle strangers, and the teachings and workshops (The Body Temple, Space To Move Tempe Dances,Embodied Astrology) I have been lucky to be a part of, below are some free writing prompts you can do in your body, in your own space, time or with favourite person/people.
'What does kindness feel to you? What part of you gives and receives Kindness? Do you find this is yours to give and to others to hold, how do you recieve?
'If my yoni/womb space had a mouth she/they would say?' (This can be quite a powerful one to respond to so be extra kind to yourself when responding to this-your body may react first before you respond depending on what your relationship is to your Yoni. Notice this with curiosity and create a space to explore this-it will birth insights)
Intimacy- What does this mean to you? Is this something you gift yourself first before sharing to others? How does this word feel with your body?Does it feel welcome? exciting? Sensual? Anxious? Joy? Wonder? Grief? Sacred? Empowerin? Toxicating?

The book: Yoni Shakti, โUma Dinsmore-Tuliโ offers a beautiful exploration on Yoni, yoga and tantric practises and women empowerment - and it's a great dip in and out book too.
During travels last December, being with the Taoist Goddess Kwun Yam, the Goddess of Mercy, and is symbolic compassion, unconditional love, and protection. She holds a special place in my heart, not only because I visited with a love. But her energy is so extra! She is a compassionate deity who offers solace and listens to the pleas of those in distress, the sick, and the fearful. Kwun Yam embodies the spirit of love and devotion, inspiring worshippers to seek her comfort and guidance
Until we meet at or with the tides again , sending you all an Ocean of warmth to you. Enjoy your summer and all the zesty blossoming spice it offers. Allow the nature that summer sunshine blooms into the world hold, love and restore you. (Below is one of my fave poems by Rumi for you to enjoy-these words always offer stillness, presence and a humble reminder that everything is just trying to breathe along with you even if sometimes you feel that it doesn't feel like it at all.)
Much Love, Sarah xxx

BIRD WINGS
'Your grief for what youโve lost lifts a mirror up to where you are bravely working.
Expecting the worst, you look, and instead, hereโs the joyful face youโve been wanting to see.
Your hand opens and closes and opens and closes.
If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralysed.
Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birdwings.'
By Rumi From The Essential Rumi Coleman Barks with John Moyne
