💫 A few of you spotted that the photo I used for last month's newsletter was taken at Kiftsgate Gardens 🌿

So, I wondered if you might know where this month's photo was taken? 📷

Inside this months newsletter you'll also find updates on my new paperback, Reiki, Yoga Nidra, Gong Baths and our Yin & Sound evening ✨

With love, light and Reiki blessings, Jan 🌿

🌕✨ Something rather beautiful is happening in our skies this Friday…

In the early hours of Friday morning, the Moon will pass deeply into the Earth’s shadow during a partial lunar eclipse.

At its maximum, around 93% of the Moon will be within the darkest part of the Earth’s shadow and as sunlight filters through our atmosphere, the Moon may take on that beautiful deep coppery or reddish glow we often associate with a “Blood Moon” 🌕❤️‍🔥

It will be a moment of light and shadow meeting in the night sky.

And although most of us will be fast asleep as the eclipse gradually unfolds throughout the early hours of Friday morning, I rather like the idea that we can pause and acknowledge it later that day.

So, this Friday evening, 28th August, our Yoga Nidra will take a little inspiration from the eclipse.

We’ll journey through silver moonlight, shadow, copper and golden light, using the eclipse as a gentle metaphor for the different qualities of light and darkness we experience within ourselves.

Not a practice about fixing, changing or letting go of anything.

Simply an invitation to rest…

To notice…

And perhaps to remember that when light is temporarily obscured, it has not disappeared 💫

The Moon remains the Moon, even while passing through shadow.

And perhaps there is something comforting in that for us too. 💜

🌕 Friday Evening Yoga Nidra
A quiet evening of rest, reflection and sound, inspired by the lunar eclipse that has taken place earlier that morning.

I’d love for you to join me. 🙏💞💫

Have you ever looked back and realised how much has changed, even when it felt like nothing was happening?

This month I'm reflecting on those quiet moments of awareness that shape us, sharing an update on my book, and looking ahead to the gentle practices and gatherings coming up in August.

Before one of my sessions, I always spend some time in the room on my own.

I don't use that time to rehearse or plan.

I simply enjoy the stillness.

It reminds me that, in a little while, this peaceful space will be filled with people who have each arrived carrying their own week. Different stories. Different worries. Different reasons for coming.

Some will have been looking forward to this all week.
Some may have almost talked themselves out of coming.
Some will simply know that they need a little time to breathe.

I never know exactly what each person needs.

What I do know is that everyone deserves a place where, for a while, nothing is expected of them.

That's the space I hope to create every time.

If you'd like to join us this Wednesday, 5th August at 7pm (£10) it would be lovely to welcome you at the studio.

Jan 💜🙏

The Journey I Never Planned

When I first began sharing Yoga Nidra, I thought I was simply offering people a space to rest, to slow down and reconnect with themselves.

Over the years, my classes have gently evolved. Not because I planned for them to, but because my own understanding and experience continued to deepen.

Somewhere along the way, I noticed something I hadn't expected...

The connection between Yoga Nidra and Reiki became more and more apparent.

Not because they are the same practice, but because they both invite us into something very similar... a place of presence, awareness and connection.

A place where we stop trying to force, fix or achieve, and simply allow ourselves to be.

I found myself reflecting on how the elements, the natural world and the awareness we cultivate in Yoga Nidra all remind us of something important...

That we are not separate from this world.

We are part of it.

I've shared some of these reflections in my latest blog, "The Journey I Never Planned."

I hope you enjoy reading it and that it offers you a moment of reflection and connection. 💜

How years of teaching Yoga Nidra gradually revealed something I never planned....the quiet connection between awareness and Reiki.

As I was sitting here this morning, finishing the script for tonight's Yoga Nidra, I found myself wondering what I could share as this week's mini self-practice in the Facebook group.

Then I smiled, because I realised the answer was already there in what I'd just written.

So, if you have a minute...

🌿 Mini Self-Practice: Finding a Little Space
Pause for a moment.
Take a slow, comfortable breath.
Notice the support beneath you.
Notice the air against your skin.
Notice the space around your body...
And perhaps even the space between your thoughts.
Notice one sound around you that you hadn't been aware of a moment ago..
There's nothing you need to change.
Nothing you need to work out.
Nothing you need to search for.
Just notice what it's like to allow a little more space.
Then simply ask yourself:
"What helps me feel connected right now?"
There is no need to search for an answer.
Just notice whatever comes.
Sometimes reconnecting isn't about finding something new.

One of the things I love about both Reiki and Yoga Nidra is that they continually remind me that I don't always need to find the answers. More often than not, they seem to arise naturally when I become still enough to notice them.

That little reminder was woven through tonight's Yoga Nidra, and it felt too lovely not to share here as well. 💜

When I first had this idea I thought it would be finished quite quickly.
It wasn't.
There were moments when I thought it was ready... and then I realised it wasn't.
Not because the content was wrong, but because something about the experience didn't feel right.
I wanted it to be simple.
Not another course to complete.
Not another thing to tick off a list.
Just a gentle companion that people could pick up whenever one of the Reiki Precepts seemed to be asking for their attention.
So I went back to it.
I rewrote sections.
Recorded (and re-recorded) the companion Yoga Nidra practices.
Added journaling.
Added affirmations.
Changed the structure more times than I can remember.
Looking back now, I'm actually grateful it took longer than I expected. It became the experience I hoped it would be rather than simply the course I could have published.
Today, I'm quietly celebrating because The Reiki Precepts Awareness Path is finally here.
My hope is that it helps people discover that the Reiki Precepts aren't rules to live up to, they're gentle companions for life. They'll keep inviting us back to ourselves, again and again, each time we're ready to see something new.
Whether you practice Reiki, are simply curious about the precepts, or are looking for a gentle path of self-reflection, I hope this book offers you moments of stillness, insight, and kindness.
Thank you to everyone who has encouraged me along the way.
And if you decide to join me on this journey...
I hope you enjoy it. 💜🙏✨

Next week, I'll be opening the doors to another Gong Bath.

The room will be ready.
The sounds will gently fill the space.

All you need to do is arrive.

If you've been thinking, "I really need to slow down," this is your gentle reminder.

The washing will still be there tomorrow.
The emails can wait.
The to-do list will never really be finished.

But you deserve moments that belong only to you.

If you choose to join us, I hope you'll leave feeling as though you've been given permission to simply be... even if only for an hour.

I'd love to see you there.

Jan 💜🙏

Over the past year, some of you have seen me quietly working away on something that has become very close to my heart and I'm delighted to say that 'The Reiki Precepts eBook' will be launching on Tuesday 21st July 💜

There's a link in the comments if you want to take a look💫

The truth is, this has never really been about publishing an eBook.

It came from years of teaching Reiki, sharing circles, listening to people's questions, and watching practitioners discover that the Reiki Precepts become something entirely different when we stop trying to remember them and begin to truly experience them.

I've always believed that some of our deepest learning doesn't happen in a classroom type environment. It happens afterwards, in the quiet moments when we pause, reflect, and gently become more aware of ourselves.

I wanted to create something that people could return to again and again. Something that wouldn't simply explain the Reiki Precepts, but would gently guide readers to explore them through awareness, reflection, Yoga Nidra and their own lived experience.

Although the book is rooted in the Reiki Precepts, you don't need to be a Reiki practitioner to benefit from it. The precepts offer simple, universal principles for living with greater awareness, kindness and presence, making this a journey that is open to anyone who feels drawn to it.

If this eBook encourages even a handful of people to deepen their relationship with themselves, to find a little more peace, or to experience the Reiki Precepts in a new way, then it will already have achieved everything I hoped it would.

Thank you to everyone who has encouraged me along the way. Your support has meant more than you probably realise, and I'm looking forward to sharing this journey with you.
Jan 💜✨
