The Sound of One Hand Clapping... or Not?

I wasn’t looking forward to last Monday. There had been something brewing within me that I needed to express to a new friend in business, and I was experiencing a tug of war. When I checked in with my intuition, I knew what my truth was. I knew things weren’t working out. I knew I needed to say something. But at the same time, I wanted to bury my head in the sand and keep the status quo. Whilst the one part of me knew the conversation needed to take place, the other part of me didn’t want to hurt her feelings. And, to be honest, it was also going to leave me in a precarious position in one aspect...

My Story: From Scientist to Psychic

Everyone's first psychic experience is different. Whether it be visions in dreams, extraordinary gut feelings or even simply subconscious knowledge. The depth of that first experience is only one small drop in the ocean of what our psychic ability really is. I was always a deeply feeling child and that depth catered to animals more than any humans I knew. I found solace in animals - they were always there for me in dark times and filled a deeper part of my being, allowing me to be softer and kinder. If an animal was in need, I was there for it. I still remember how panicked I was when a stray cat I’d befriended over many months started crying in...

Words of Inspiration from Kahlil Gibran

One of my all-time favourite inspirational books is The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. Its poetry moves my heart in so many directions, and speaks truth to my ears. For this month’s affirmations, I’ve decided to share some beautiful phrases from this most timeless of books.

Alone and without his nest shall the Eagle fly across the sun. Oil Blend: Surrender 2. Your clothes conceal much of your beauty, yet they hide not the unbeautiful….Would that you could meet the sun and the wind with more of...

Artemis' Azure Scrub

In my last blog, you would have read about the power of essential oils (and in fact all aromas) to trigger emotional memories. But how can this happen? Did you know that when you smell an essential oil, those volatile aromatic molecules mist out of your bottle and make their way to your nose? That’s why you can smell them, even from a distance! And once they reach your nose, those little molecules trigger some “cilia” (little hairs) that extend from your olfactory epithelium (a piece of skin that sits at the top of your nose). And those cilia are actually brain cells! They are extremely long, with one end being the hair, and the other end running all the...

A Whiff of Heaven

   It was early in the morning, and I’d just woken up. Still half asleep, I wandered into my bathroom and was washing my hands when I caught a whiff of something so exquisitely beautiful that it took my breath away. As my nose sought for the source of the aroma, I discovered it was on a small patch of my towel. That’s odd. What caused that smell? It smelt soooo familiar, it was like I should have known it, but I couldn’t place it. Was it an oil blend? Was it a scented moisturizer? My mind ticked over the previous 12 to 24 hours. What had I been using? I was at a loss. So the sleuth in...
