Today is our day, just like every day.......

If your path is that of the healer, seeker, protector.

If your are happiest when you are in nature, foraging herbs, blending oils, treading lightly, and listening to the trees.

If you fiercely protect those you love, the world around you, the plant beings, the furred, feathered and winged ones.

If you have a knowing, you listen to your intuition and flow with the magic of life, take today to be grateful.

Grateful for all those that came before us, those whose lives were taken through fear and control. Those who were not able to live there lives fully. Today as the veil is thinnest, give deep thank you for you didn't just become a witch, it is in your very DNA, and we are here now to heal those wounds.

Much love witchy sisters.........

Join me tonight on our Samhain call, at 8pm.

Well here we are at this glorious time of equal length, of light and dark, day and night and from here in the UK we begin the decent into the darker months, but it doesn't have to feel all doom and gloom. Personally I love this time. The moment when life gets a little slower and enables me to feel my entirety of emotions. A place many of us, just don't want to hang out. But into the dark I go, where I shine my light, cast my shadows, and find those lost parts of myself that are ready to show themselves to be healed.
This is time for me, time for deep self care, and for inviting those who want to come with me on the journey.
Are you feeling the connection? Or is there a total disconnect going on right now?
Our final woodland retreat of the year is happening in a couple of weeks on the 4/6th October at Hazel Hill Wood I would so love to share this time with you.
Lots of time for connection to self, a deep sisterhood and to nature. Many will come alone, not knowing anyone and will make connections for life. There will be circles, inner dance, ritual and cacao, homecooked nourishing food, comfy beds in a shared room (your own room possible with additional supplement), hot showers, fires, music, and lots of rest time too.
If this is calling you, then reach out, our all inclusive price is just £295 for the weekend, and we can always find a way to make instalments work if needed. Right now you can secure your place with just £100 deposit.
SO what are you waiting for, I know it is a tough time for many, and we always put everyone else first, but now is the time for you to fill your own cup first.

ARE YOU BEING CALLED TO CREATE SAFER SPACES IN YOUR OWN LIFE & COMMUNITY?
Check out the masterclass I held this morning, if you are feeling this in your heart, then I really want to hear from you.
Join me for a couple of beautiful meditations, some connection to yourself, to your sisterhood, to your journal, and to this beautiful season we find ourselves in.
It is 80 minutes, so grab a cuppa, tuck yourself in, and enjoy.
I have 10 spaces for women who want to join me in this next 6 month training. I have scaled the cost right back, not because we are not worth more, but because I want this training to be accessible to all.
I will also be creating some shorter trainings, some weekends up and down the country so you can train with me in person, and some shorter 6 week trainings. These will bring you a deepening to circle, to community, to get you out in the world, safely.
I will continue to hold a 6 month training for anyone looking to deepen the journey with themselves, to heal there own wounds around women, and to lean into the space of connection with a group of women on the same path as yourself.
So have a watch. Enjoy.

AM I MAD?

DEAR SISTERS

Well here we are, the changing seasons are upon us, and I don’t know about you, but I love this time. I begin to feel the deepening into what might be, as I find myself turning back to my home from the busy-ness of the summer months. For us we are in fields all summer, festival to festival, and it can feel quite full, but as I lay here now writing to you from our canal boat, listening to the ducks and the sound of rain on the roof, feeling the chill in the air, I recall how much I have still felt this way in the summer. The UK is a funny fish for sure. One day its hot, the next day its not. One day flip flops, the next day wellies. One moment bikinis the next jumpers……my grandad always used to say there is no such thing as bad weather, just poor clothing choices.

And I have to agree. When I pack my van up for the summer, it has to include everything, wellies and suncream alike! BUT this is where we live, and so you may be feeling like I am mad to be putting on a gathering at the end of September. I also know in all the years I have been doing this, that September can be more glorious than June, so what to do. TO be present with the healing that wants to come, or to say nope the weather might be too bad! TO hear the deep desire for us to be together, in person, rather than to be online all of the time, and to know this really is the last opportunity to do so before the colder months. TO have thought all of this through, and to be creating space, where we have an awesome heated barn, hot showers, flushing toilets, fires, hot food, and the ability to all sleepover in the barn, if we choose too, rather than a tent, like a giant sleepover…….should the weather change and we really not be able to be outside. Along with an abundance of sheepskins, hot water bottles, and blankets…….

SO if the weather is putting you off, please don’t let it, unless we all fly to sunnier climbs, this is where we are, and we can do this, because the heart and hearth of our gathering will keep you warm.

Check out our next gathering : https://sacred-sister.co.uk/autumngathering2024

All the details are on our website, space is limited so please be quick if you heart is calling you, then say YES, because you deserve this!

Much love

Over the past years, I have softened so deeply into love… not outside of myself, but from within. It’s been a major journey and continues to be an ongoing practice. Sisterhood that embodies relaxed, real, and raw connection has helped me become the woman I am today. It is a key that showed me the way to my innermost soft loving woman. It is also what continues to hold me when I seemingly forget.

We are not meant to do this alone—it truly does take a village, a web of support! Allowing other women into your life who can hold you and help you ascend higher is an essential part of embodying the many feminine spectrums of life.

We’ve been so isolated from each other as women in modern society. Taught to compete with each other, compare to one another, and cancel each other. The shadow and separation of sisterhood is a core wound many in the collective consciousness feel. It ripples out, curating disconnection from the womb, the practice, and each other.

This is why coming together, heart open, fully embracing the beauty of each other as sisters, is so healing for ourselves, our communities, and our souls.

Sacred Sisterhood means:
🌸 We take radical responsibility.
🌸 We show up for our practice daily.
🌸 We communicate clearly.
🌸 We genuinely connect.
🌸 We heavily celebrate each other.

Women gathering as a tribe is inherent to our nature. The new age ways of women aren’t new; they are making a profound comeback. We are moving past jealousy, insecurity, and competition. Women need each other to grow, heal, relax, and feel truly nurtured.

Returning to nature, being wild, making art, going slow, dancing to our favourite songs, having those deep moments of pure clarity where all of life becomes truly meaningful. Together, we are more powerful than we are alone!

The Sacred Sister team is excited to announce our upcoming summer camp! Join us for a transformative experience where we gather as women to reconnect, rejuvenate, and rewild. This summer, let's return to our wild roots and celebrate our sisters.

LIMITED EARLY BIRDS still available!
