Have you ever noticed how certain small actions can completely shift your mood? Maybe it’s the way you make your morning coffee, the moment you light a candle in the evening, or even pausing for a deep breath before starting your day. These little moments—when done with intention—become rituals. And rituals have the power to […]
There are so many videos and blog posts out there about why your home might feel “off”, and how to fix it. Usually, the advice centres around getting your rug size right, improving your lighting, or investing in better window treatments. And honestly, all of that has its place. I offer that kind of guidance […]
There’s a quiet power in taking your time. In a world that encourages us to do everything faster — including how we decorate our homes — slow decorating offers something different. Something better. It’s not just about aesthetics. It’s about creating a home that truly feels like you — a space that supports your life, […]
If you’re just getting started, here are some meditation guidelines to bear in mind. Because it’s quite common that people’s preconceptions don’t match their experience….

I was half way through my interior design course before I hit the colour module and got something of a shock: Contrary to popular opinion – including no shortage of high-profile professionals in the field – monochrome is not black and white. And now, whenever an architect on the telly describes a black and white […]
As autumn hits and the end of the year fast approaches, the signs around us in nature are all about endings (to make way for new beginnings). Maybe it’s a resistance to what is—such a human quality—and not wanting to let go of the more active energy of the brighter months. Or maybe it’s a […]

Vote with your wallet for the future that you want. Every day, we make choices that either influence a future change in policy or maintain the status quo—and most of us do this unconsciously. In my opinion, the most effective way each of us can bring about positive reform in politics and economics is to […]
Once upon a time I was keen on manifesting my desires. Now, I’m more interested in surrendering to the Divine’s plan for my life. That’s not to say I don’t experience any desire for particular things and experiences. It’s just that I’m aware of the old adage, “Be careful what you wish for”. What we desire […]
In metaphysical circles it is widely held that the energy of the new moon supports us in sowing new seeds, or intentions, for what we wish to create in our lives. And the energy around the full moon supports us in letting go of what no longer serves us. Of course, we can set such […]
Never underestimate the power of paint to have all kinds of transformative effects on a space. Here I’m showing you an incomplete makeover, to illustrate the powerful difference a new paint job can make – even if you don’t change anything else. On the right we have the old colour, and on the left the […]
What Makes “Tidying Up” So Magically Life-Changing? Spring cleaning—a thorough and deep cleanse of our homes at the end of winter—is a common tradition that’s as old as the hills.
