Hello beautiful souls,
.
I hope you are doing well.
.
The New moon in May peaks on Monday the 30th at 12:30pm. It falls in the sign of Gemini, which is an air sign. It will bring about lots of positivity and inspiration. The winds of change are coming and it’s all for the highest good, especially if you have been feeling stuck and unmotivated lately.
.
This new moon will breathe new life into your reality, helping you to shed those final layers of the old-self. Take some time to reflect on what it is that you are shedding and what you would like to invite in.
.
If you feel inspired to start something, create an offering, career or plan a trip. Write it down and plan it out. Intuition is heightened at this time, so slow down and listen to the whispers. Major breakthroughs and aha moments will happen on this day.

Its been a week since I visited the mystical land of Glastonbury ✨
.
Known best for the famous festival but it has so much more to offer like sacred sites, history, spiritual pilgrimages, healing energies and so much more.
.
I dont know what brought me there besides the obvious 😅 but there was that gentle whisper that has guided me to so many wonderful places and experiences in the past. Im so glad I listened to the calling and followed my heart.
.
Ive always been a seeker and wanderer, a bit like Alice in Wonderland 🐰 We come to this world to remember our true essence, purpose and experience all the abundance life has to offer.
.
This trip felt like a homecoming, confirmation, lots of aha moments and conversations with beautiful souls. I really felt like I had been there before and will definitely be back soon. Im so excited to see how this experience integrates into my life and unfolds into my work and healing journey 💗
.
Ill continue to share the insights from this experience as they flow into my awareness and maybe Ill even organise a group trip there too 🙌
.
Let me know if you would be interested 👇😉
.
Have you ever been to Glastonbury??🇬🇧
.
Happy Friday 🌻
.
Much love,
.

The Vagus Nerve 🧠

Its the information highway that connects your brain with organs throughout the body. Its the longest cranial nerve in the body and runs from your brain to your large intestine.

Vagus is Latin for “wandering.”

The vagus nerve plays a huge role in many bodily functions, and it has a gut brain connection.

Its been proven that doing exercises to stimulate and tone the vagus nerve can help people with epilepsy, depression amd even weight loss.

What happens when you stimulate the vagus nerve?

It sends a message to our bodies that its time to relax and de-stress. This can lead to long-term improvements in mood, pain management, wellbeing and resilience.

Research also shows that the vagus nerve may hold the key to managing diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and other conditions that are affected by stress.

Here are some ways of stimulating the vagus nerve to boost mental well-being.

These include:

Diaphragmatic breathing techniques
Cold water exposure
Usimg vagus nerve devices
Meditation
Yoga
Singing
Humming
Chanting
Gargling
Massage
Tapping

People who have a strong and toned vagus nerve a strong vagus nerve may find it easier to relax after a stressful experience, and their body may be better able to manage inflammation and gut issues. It may also be better equipped to manage blood sugar levels.

Foods that are good for vagus nerve.

These foods include spinach, seeds, nuts, bananas, and poultry. The contain a compound called tryptophan which helps strengthen the vagus nerve and spinal cord.

Benefits of stimulating your vagus nerve.

Can help to minimise epilepstic seizures.

Regulate your emotions.
Reduce blood pressure.
Lower your heart rate.

Namaste,

Hello beautiful souls,
.
I hope you are doing well.

The Full Moon in May, also known as the Blood Moon because of its red hue, falls on a Lunar Eclipse. It peaks on Monday the 16th of May at 5:14am and it’s in Scorpio which is a water sign.
.
When eclipses happen fate takes over. This means whatever happens it’s for your highest good and it’s bringing you forward in life.
.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the earth moves perfectly in alignment between the Sun and Moon. It’s super-charged, super-powered & super-emotional energy.
