This last week I was unwell with a fluey cold and watched WAY too much Netflix, but was good to get some relaxation time in for my body. One thing I watched was The Kindness Diaries. This is a doco about Leon, a guy who travels from Alaska to Argentina in a very old yellow VW Beetle, solely on the kindness of others. He’s not able to spend or accept any money; instead, he has to ask others for…
We all have days where the Negative Nancy/Ned in our head spirals out of control. Where lack of sleep, pain or illness, our environment or whatever it might be, gets the better of us.

Over time, if we actively choose not to heal old wounds, they become infected and stinky. …
I keep seeing this picture around on social media with the quote “some souls leave behind a trail of light that is never forgotten.” I’m always saying to my Reiki students that I imagine we all leave a sparkly trail of light energy wherever we go.
