In this week’s episode, we ask, ‘Why Walk the Celtic Wheel?’ and ‘How can we bring it into our daily life?’. The Celtic Wheel isn’t just about marking the seasons, it supports us in our self-awareness so we can learn how to embrace change, navigate all of life and move with the natural rhythms of life.

What does it mean to walk the Wheel and not just know about it? To bring it from understanding into direct experience. We explore how these turning points support us through transitions and offer a deeper sense of belonging and connection to the greater web of life.

We discuss how to integrate the Celtic Wheel into your daily life in a way that feels rooted and aligned to you.

This is your moment to embrace tender potential, awaken bold energy, and bloom into the life waiting for you.

This week’s episode invites you to become aware of how you are meeting the energies of Imbolc. Imbolc offers you a place to reflect on the seeds of our vision you carry within.

Where do you want to focus your precious life force in the coming cycle?

What are you choosing to commit to, what seeds do you truly want to grow?

Imbolc invites you to listen deeply and allow them to emerge. What is the vision, intention, dream or way of being that keeps knocking gently on your door? What if you stopped ignoring the quiet whispers of your heart and began to nurture what’s been waiting within you all along?

In this episode, we discuss:

• Imbolc as a time of slow emergence and tender beginnings.
• Feeling into the quiet hope that stirs within.
• Exploring how brigids qualities can support you on your path
• Identifying and nurturing the "seeds" of creativity, purpose, and renewal.
• Letting go of perfectionism, doubt, and fear etc to create space for growth.
• Some simple rituals and reflections to connect with the energy of Imbolc and Bridget’s guiding light.

Beginnings don’t have to be perfect or rushed. They get to be messy and uncertain. Can you let yourself be with that? The most important thing is to start.

What might emerge from within you if you allowed yourself to truly listen to the quiet flame within?

What might happen if you made room for it to grow?

Have you ever found yourself standing at the end of January wishing you had 'wintered' differently?

Maybe you feel exhausted, frustrated, and lack the space you deeply crave. Your body longs for stillness but you’re being pulled by the wave of rushing into the year. Or maybe you drank deeply from the well of winter and now is the time to reflect on the medicine received from the darkness - so you don’t forget it. How can you hold onto the gifts of winter when you open more towards the slowly growing light of Imbolc.

In this episode, I guide you to reflect on your relationship to winter - how it shaped you and how you might approach it differently next year. How can you emerge at gently at Imbolc feeling satiated, rested and carrying within your dream seeds.

I would love to know what resonates with you. What you have received from your wintering?

Healing is messy and beautiful when we learn to embrace the Mystery.

This week's podcast episode asks 'What does healing mean to you?' and how does that definition support or hinder your healing?

Imagine healing as an ongoing, natural part of life - not something to be conquered, a destination to be reached or something reserved only for crisis moments. How can we move from seeing healing as linear, goal-oriented, or something within us to be "fixed."? What if we could open to the idea that our healing is a deeply personal and non-linear journey. One that invites us to embrace curiosity, self-compassion, and acceptance of all parts of ourselves - including the messy, tender, and resistant aspects?

We explore the importance of allowing healing to unfold in its own time and the soul's time. What would happen if we let go of the expectations we place on ourselves and our healing so we can be surprised at how the benefits ripple throughout our being and life. Rather than striving for perfection or instant results, we can instead focus on becoming more alive, embracing vitality, and engaging with life as it happens.

The episode ends with an invitation to reflect on what would change if you embraced wholeness as you are today.

In this episode, we explore Samhain, the turning point on the Celtic Wheel where we are invited to meet the depths within ourselves. The parts of ourselves that we’ve tucked away, resisted, or grown too comfortable with, even if they no longer serve us. Just as the snake sheds its skin, Samhain invites us to release what we’ve outgrown, to lay down what no longer fits, and offer these aspects to the cauldron of transformation. When we do this with reverence alchemy happens.

We also explore our relationship with death, our wise companion guiding us to live fully. Death teaches us that sometimes growth demands a sacrifice, where we are willing to lay down something precious in exchange for a fuller life. By navigating the ‘mini deaths’ such as the endings, completions, and changes in our lives, we prepare ourselves to meet the ultimate death with grace. To live life well and to die well is a gift to ourselves and others.

We pause to listen for the call of An Cailleach, that ancient wise woman of winter who guides us to reclaim our sovereignty, wildness and deepest inner knowing. Join me as we step into the coming darkness with our companions – An Cailleach and Spirit of Death

In this episode, we explore Samhain, a time when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. Often referred to as the Celtic New Year - rooted in the belief that all life begins in the dark - it's a potent time to reflect on how we've walked the Celtic Wheel over this past spiral. Together, we consider what needs to change, where we truly want to invest our energy and what needs to die to have space for greater aliveness.

We honor our ancestors, both known and unknown, learning as much from their wisdom as their challenges. We remember too, that one day we will be ancestors - what kind of ancestors do we wish to be? We consider the gifts of stillness and rest that we receive when we reconnect with nature’s rhythms and the wisdom of the earth.

Join me as we honor this sacred threshold, embracing the darkness as a powerful space for inner growth and deep healing.

This episode invites you to experience Reiki through a Japanese lens emphasising the three diamonds—earth ki, heaven ki, and heart ki - rather than the more widely taught chakra system. Learn how to 'polish these diamonds' through daily reiki practice so you can reveal your true nature and great bright light. This then helps you to have a shift in perspective for your self-practice, treating others with reiki and teaching reiki. This episode gives insights to deepen your practice and connect with the true essence of Reiki, regardless of your level of Reiki experience.
