Honouring Mother Earth: Reflections, Resolutions, and the Path to Regeneration
Tomorrow, April 22nd 2025, is International Mother Earth Day. A resolution adopted in 2009 by the United Nations, it was a Day to recognise the Earth and its ecosystems as humanity’s common home.

Bonds That Matter: Human, Animal, and Nature Connections
Who we choose to spend time with has a massive impact of our experience of the world, so we must choose wisely. Spending time with those who make us feel seen, heard and appreciated enables us to grow into who we wish to be. ‘The only person you are destined […]

Crafting Reality: The Power of Thoughts, Feelings, and Compassion
Sometimes we need to hear something several times before we actually ‘hear’ it and the message sinks in. Perhaps we need to be personally or spiritually ready to take on the information; the first few times we hear the words, but they float past and don’t seem to stick or […]

Welcoming Chaos: A Joyful Week of Piglet Arrivals
Happily, the piglets arrived this week! For weeks I have looked at the sows’ ever-expanding bellies thinking ‘it must be today’ and being disappointed at being wrong every day. But on Wednesday the first sow, Thelma, made a nest of straw outside, under the trees in dappled sunlight and gave […]

A Bridge of Light: Meditations on Healing and Harmony
Moving into the Light Every year it is the same: a sense of relief, joy and gratitude at the increased amount of light. The pleasure from this never diminishes, year after year I feel equally joyful at having made it through the toughest part of the year. I do like […]

Celestial Harmony: Aligning with the Universe’s Energy
This blog is being written at a time of rare planetary alignment. Seven planets have aligned in the sky to form a perfect line. What does this signify? It is a time to align your personal energy, goals and spiritual path. A call to bring balance into your life and […]

Strength and Purpose: Rediscovering the Power of Physicality in Farm Life
I used to always take my strength for granted. Growing up around horses and being outside a lot, I did a lot of manual work as a youngster and developed good muscle tone. Then around aged 45, once this strength began to ebb away, I realised how much I had […]
Listening to the Land: Finding Stillness and Wisdom in Nature’s Cycles
As an eternal optimist, I forever turn my attention towards thoughts of positivity and hope and I will either run a mile or turn my back on tales of woe and despair which so frequently surround us. My children, or one in particular, find it irritating that in their moments […]
