The days are getting shorter, the leaves are changing colour and a distinct change is taking place in nature’s colour palette. And you may be noticing these external shifts are being mirrored by some internal adjustments – physically, mentally, or emotionally? This seasonal […]
Modern life is so busy and fast-paced. For most of us, it feels nearly impossible to slow things down and create the sense of calm we may be craving. And the constant busyness can result in a build-up of clutter – mental as much as physical – in our lives and homes. To make matters […]
Amidst the complexities of life, the idea of home holds a deeper significance than mere bricks and mortar. It represents a sanctuary where our souls find solace, a haven away from life’s storms. In this blog post we will delve into the art of crafting your personal sanctuary right within the walls of your home […]
Did you know that hygge is not just for winter? In Denmark, hygge is a year-round practice and it’s not improbable that it contributes to their enviable levels of happiness and wellbeing.

Feng Shui is widely misunderstood in the western world as a manifestation tool. This is unsurprising given that it’s so often peddled as just that. And people have mixed results—for some it works like a charm and others have frustratingly poor outcomes. The reason for this is that Feng Shui will be far more effective […]
Spring cleaning and decluttering our homes makes them far more pleasant spaces to spend time in…need I say more in the current circumstances? It’s the time of year for it anyway, and with all the extra time we’re spending at home it’s a perfect opportunity to tackle it. I started a couple of days ago […]
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….

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 […]
