As part of my celebration for the pagan festival of Imbolc, I did a short Tarot reading. I asked for a message that was relevant to me at this time, and that would also resonate with people who are on a similar spiritual path as myself. That will be anyone who is currently finding their place in the world, who is perhaps trying something new, whether that be in their personal lives, their career, or even their family. I drew two cards; one represents the recent months of winter and the other represents the coming months of spring.

I have been on an inner journey for quite some time now and can say that it is an ongoing work.

We all know that our personality or our ego is not our inner self, that soul or spirit that we are. It's rather the opposite, the fake of us. It consists of all of the beliefs and values which we downloaded from childhood. But what some of us don't realise is that we are aware of some of the issues that we carry. And we tell that story over and over again.

I have often wondered how Saurkraut was made.  It's something I was brought up on, being that my mother was French, and a dish popular to Alsace (as well as Germany, Poland etc).  

Here is an excellent feature article in my local regional newspaper The Sentinel (North Staffordshire and South Cheshire) Family Holidays on Cornish Coast set scene for Ghostly Tale
It feels like I'm on a wild roller coaster at the moment, and it is fantastic! A word of advice for budding writers out there: just get out and broadcast the news about your book. You will be surprised at how many people take in interest in your work. Go get 'em!

My debut novel Love Hurts is now widely available in both eBook and paperback format.

Love Hurts (The Redcliffe Pack)

I think it is time for me to share something rather personal. My journey to being a published author has been a long and very educational one, and it is still in its early stages.

Several years ago I threw myself into the study of Mind, Body and Spirit. I had never bothered with self-help books before as I had been raised in a social peer group which didn't understand them, and therefore didn't believe in them. Now I have made my own choice. And I believe.

Hello :0)

So, I thought it was time to step into the modern world and become a BLOGGER!! (There's something about that word that makes it sound rude! ha!)
So, having recently taken the big scary plunge to become a full time holistic therapist, working mainly with animals, the last few weeks have been scary/exciting/bizarre and along the way have met some amazing, beautiful animals and their lovely owners. My company, Silver Daisies has been featured in local press, and various pet and holistic magazines with some VERY exciting features coming up in my personal, hippy magazine of choice, Spirit and Destiny and the one my Mum is going to be most proud of...Lancashire Life magazine!! Surreal!
So tonight is mainly to introduce myself to the wonders of blogging (seriously - that WORD makes me laugh!!)

Hello all, I have finally made time to update my profile for this network. It has been a busy time recently. I had a baby just under 7 months ago, and as you can imagine she keeps me very busy! Then I managed to find a publisher for my debut novel 'Love Hurts' and it was released only last month. Check it out on:
