New Community Page Idea

NEW COMMUNITY PAGE -  Random Gifts Across The World  (Special acts of kindness and love)

Hello all my lovely friends here on Facebook. As you know, helping people and kindness feature a lot in my everyday life. I am an energy light worker, healer and spiritual adviser, and everything I do in my life's work involve care, love and healing on many levels.
Way back in February I joined a Facebook group called "Random Acts of Love". It was specifically for Valentines day and the idea was this. (from their timeline)

"Lets share some love this valentines day.... please make a token gesture of love and leave it somewhere for a stranger to find with a note asking to pay the love forward. Lets share the love and spread a few smiles this valentines day! Please invite all your friends to take part and feel the warm fuzzy feeling of making someone happy :) We'd be really pleased if you can post a picture to share the love even further ♥"

The group started with about 6 people, which (much to their surprise and delight) escalated over a weekend, and at the last count there were 134 likes.
Many people were out and about all over the country (and some overseas) leaving lovely acts of love gifts for a random person to find.
This concept excited me, the act of unconditionally giving and making someone smile was such a great thing to do, I was soon on board. I decided to go to Norwich Riverside and leave a few of my gifts randomly in places for people to find. They ranged from a seat at the station, a table on the train, In coffee shops and even in a basket of a bicycle parked outside a supermarket.
These were my little random gifts of sweets, hearts and crystals left all over Riverside in Norwich on February 14th (Valentines day) After that, the group seemed to fade, and i felt a little disappointed that the energy was diminishing after the initial excitement and love that was felt.

On Mothers day, I left one of my poems as an act of love for all mums in The Bridge in Acle, on their tables, which the lovely Vanessa (landlady) helped me to distribute. We stayed for lunch so got a sneaky look at the delight and smiles on the faces of the mums who received them 

It is shortly afterwards I saw a post on Facebook and decided to campaign for Suspended Coffee's where I spent a happy few days in Norwich, dropping leaflets and asking the local coffee houses to become involved in this act of kindness.
For those who have not heard of suspended coffee's, may I enlighten you. You go to a coffee shop who is participating (some Costa Coffee's are now involved), you buy one coffee for yourself (or a food item) and you buy another to be "suspended" for someone who is in need of a coffee. They may be homeless, broke, a student, or just cant afford to get a coffee, and they can ask if there are any suspended coffees available, and have a drink on us.
The coffee houses never lose out because the coffee is already paid for, so another way of spreading the love.

These are a couple of links

Around the same time I joined a crystal swap event on Facebook, which is now a group called "Crystal Gifting - Lighting Up The World" You find someone in the group who you connect with, privately swap addresses, buy a crystal especially for them (under £5 incl postage), and they swap back. I find the concept of this amazing, and the love that is spread within and beyond the group, and the abundant positive energy, have brought back the immense feeling of satisfaction to me once again.  One lady in the group wanted to send people a swap but instead of us swapping back, she wanted us to leave a crystal for a stranger, somewhere randomly they would find it. Well I was back in the realms of what I believed in once again, and so a friend and I went to a lovely place called Fairhaven Water Gardens in South Walsham, and we left a few little crystals in bags tied to trees and left on benches. A few weeks later, I felt the need to do this again to give back to others for all the lovely crystals I had been sent, so with a couple more friends, we went back the Fairhaven once again and left a few more crystals.
Splinter Groups have now been formed for Crystal Skull enthusiasts, where a group of crystal skulls are travelling around the world "Travelling crystal skulls" and even a few of us are going to Glastonbury for a retreat in September. A great way to connect with like minded people, and share our interests and therapies.





The feedback from lots of people in the groups was immense, and really positive, and so many wanted to embrace this idea, I had to act upon this.  This is where my little plan that I start my own community page for just this!!.


The concept is easy. You make or buy a small gift (ie little patchwork hearts, tumble stones or crystals, poems, inspiring words, dried flowers, little cards) anything that will make someone smile who finds it. *I did leave sweets and chocolates, but found that people were reluctant to eat them in case they had been "tampered with". That is another story covered by one of my earlier blogs "Random Acts of Love" and will explain all.


You attach a small card to it saying something like " This little gift has been left for you as a random act of love, please enjoy it and pass the love forward", or say anything you want, but the main thing is, that it is left in a prominent place for someone to find.  I found in the past that parks, coffee houses, places of interest that people visit, woodland walks, or even along the road that you live in, is a great place to leave gifts. Some have left them in libraries, cinema lobbies and community centres, where the love is spread and the energy continues to bring life back to the people who find them. The only place I would not suggest to leave them in is shops. I think if you found one and put it into your bag, it could be misunderstood for shop lifting and could cause embarrassment and trauma.

Anyhow, this is my proposal. I am hoping that all the crystal swappers and travelling skull lovers, globally will embrace this concept and enjoy the pleasure of giving, and passing the loving energies forward around the world. Not for any gain, not for recognition, just for an act of kindness and love.

Yes it will be a global community and I want as many people to come and join us, and post their pictures and stories of their experiences, and spread this loving energy.

Would any of you be interested in joining a loving community like this?

Your comments would be appreciated <3

Mister Brown Visits London (and appears at the O2)

Hi there lovely Skullie fans
Since my last post, I have been a busy bee getting ready for my performance with the Rock Choir at the O2 in London.
We travelled down to Kent on the Friday 5th July, just the day before, so that we could chill out and have a little pamper (That's me, not Mister Brown) Had some lovely sparkly gels done for my nails and Mister Brown had a little rest in the fruit bowl of all places. He was happy there watching us being pampered lol
Lounging on an Apple

We are ready for the Off

We left just before lunchtime for our exciting trip to the O2 near Greenwich in London. It was only about 40 minutes drive from where we staying and so we arrived around 12.30pm. We found a nice Costa and had lunch. Mr Brown enjoyed sitting with us. Apparently he needed no food or drink! (so he said)
Posing at Costa Coffee

Arriving at the O2 on a sunny afternoon

After lunch we went for a walk around as we were very early. I was so excited to be performing at the O2 with around 11,500 other choirs from around the country, and wanted to meet up with my friends from my own Norfolk/Suffolk choir.  The others, had talked Mister Brown in the experience of a Pub so we ended up going to The Slug & Lettuce for a couple of medicinal snifters before the event



Gazing around at the views in the pub

Soon I was at the event and sitting with the Choir. The place is huge and overwhelming, and the sound of thousands of  voices singing in harmony was fantastic and very emotional. Mister Brown took it all in his cool stride as he sat in my pocket listening to the songs.



Waiting for the event to start at the O2

After an immensely enjoyable time (and it was over way too soon) I met up with my family who had been sitting way up on a higher level watching the performance. We went off to eat (again) at a place called Wagamamas. Mister Brown wanted to know what we were eating, so we showed him exactly what he was missing, not needing food or drink!


Experiencing the food at Wagamamas


On our way home Mister Brown reminded us that he had come from Canada, and that Michele (his friend he lives with) would maybe like to see him with Micheal Buble. He is appearing at the O2 the same week as we were lol






Very tired but ecstatic, we went home to rest, and on Monday, we returned home. Mister brown had a well earned rest on my Amethyst cave to re-energise him and rid him of any unwanted energy he may have picked up on his travels. He was also introduced to my own new Skull (no name as yet, I think she may be a bit shy).

Soaking up the rays
Sharing the energy with (no name)



Mister Brown meets (no name)



I do hope he has enjoyed his time with us in Reedham, Norfolk. I will be sorry to see my lovely Mister Brown leave our home, but I do know he will have so much fun with his new host Sue Cowie, who only lives about 12 miles up the road, and she has so much for him to see and experience, including her nawty Ninjas
Happy travelling, we will sure miss you x

Conversations With Mister Bown

I decided I wanted to find out more about my little house guest, and as others had sat and meditated with their skulls, I thought I would "have a go."

We connect quite easily and the first thing he gave me was the year 1929. He showed my lots of other skulls, carved African heads and spears. I asked him where these pictures were from and the answer I received was "Africa, Namibia". He was shipped to the UK in 2005.

I thanked him for his insights and left it at that as I was going out.

Mister Brown as he should be x
This morning I thought I would have another converse with my little brown friend and when I took him into my hands, I got so many images of other skulls again, all different colours,sizes and shapes, some were really stunning. He was in a huge collection of minerals that were sold to a Canadian trader around 2007-2008. I asked how the date 1929 was significant. It seems it was when he was taken from the rock face in the "deep dark mine"

I felt quite emotional holding him and thanked him for his story. I said that we were off for a very special weekend tomorrow.
I asked him if he liked his eyes and the answer straight away was, "I don't really need eyes to see" lol. He went back to telling me how he came from a big place with lots of friends there. He was called "Skull Brain" and he didn't like that name at all!
He enjoys being here and will be sad to go, but he does want to enjoy his onward travels.
He showed me paintings of leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, and I think that is reference to either Namibia, or where he was in a big collection.

So I am really pleased to have connected wit this little guy x

The Tales and Travels of Mister Brown

First off, I must tell you all who Mister Brown is. You see, some of you may think he is a friend (which of course he is) but he is a very special friend. He is visiting me on his trip across the globe, before he returns home to his companion Michele Nash in Canada.
He is a very handsome, crackled Brown Agate Skull, with a lovely little window on top of his head where you can sort of look into. He arrived with me on Saturday 22 June after flying across the pond, only to find himself in not so sunny England! I carefully unpacked him and gave a little squeal of delight! I popped him outside in the rain to freshen up and after resting in the sunshine (it did evetually come out) put him upstairs on my angel altar to meet and chill out with a few crystal buddies.

Here is the window to "see in"


We were lucky enough to have a supermoon full moon on Sunday night so along with my other crystals, Mister Brown had a lovely moonbathe

For our fist trip out, Mister Brown, Phil and I, went to the Royal Norfolk Show on Wednesday 26 June, which we all thoroughly enjoyed.
In the evening I took him to choir practice where Ian, our choir leader, sat him on the keyboard for him to enjoy the singing and dancing....He looked quite happy sitting on Ian's keyboard, and endured my singing and wrong dance moves without any tittering! 

More travels soon and a very, very special outing for Mister Brown and me next weekend....
Until then, watch this space.

Guardian Angels - My Thoughts

Hello to readers of my page (and to all new likers, a huge thank you) This blog is about Angels.
 Angels are relatively new to me so I can only relate to what has happened over the last couple of years. I have found that there are many subtle signs that angels are close to you. First thing is, you have to summon an angel to you. They never interfere in your life's journey unless it is a matter of life or death, and it is not your time to leave the earth plain, so always ask your guardian angel to come close to you for help and guidance.
Then its really helpful to them if you ask a question in a positive way, like "What more can I do bring abundance / love into to my life?" rather than "I need more money / a new partner"

Signs
I have experienced many different signs that my angels have let me know they are around me. Some are so subtle I almost miss them, whilst others are kindly nudges that persist until I take notice.
White feathers are quite a common sign, those that just float down next to you whether you are outdoors or inside, or are just appear next to you so that you notice them. Butterflies that flutter close by you, and also dragonflies that hover near to you are a sign that your angel is there (even if you can't feel them) Small coins or even buttons in unfamiliar places are also signs, and books or magazines that just fall open at a certain page may give you and answer to a question that was bothering you. Even a song being played on the radio or TV that lodges in your head and you keep playing it over and over again, becomes a significant sign to you...Subtle.
 
When I have someone for healing or I am just about to start my distant healing, I always ask for my angels to come close to me, and I thank them for working with me for the highest good of all. Now I do not see them as winged people, although I do see hundreds of tiny squiggles that whizz around the room, and they remind me of tiny fairies or light beings. Whatever they are, and they could be angels, I am always pleased to see them.  Sometimes the room does brighten slightly when I ask for an angel's help, especially when it is dark.  I do not hear them as some people do, but I feel a sort of warmth about me, as though someone has wrapped me in a warm blanket, and I feel very secure and calm. That is great if you feel panicky or frightened about a certain situation and is very reassuring. Some people hear music and others see bright lights when an angel is close to them, which are other signs that you are not alone. It is quite common for people to see actual signs or boards with the word ‘Angel’ written on them! Its like they are actually showing you that they are close by. Its down to trust and paying attention to the signs.


Meditation
Those of you who meditate regularly know that the more you practice it, the easier it gets to become relaxed and focussed. When you are in this relaxed state, you may summon your angels to come close and ask them if they would give you a name to call them by. They know that sometimes we find comfort in knowing our angel's name, and by giving us a name to call them by, it validates their exsistence to us. I was given the word "Emarulde" when I asked, and although I can find no meaning to this name, and I have looked on the internet;  one day I am sure it will be revealed to me, if it is necessary for me to know its meaning.
There are many Angel meditation cd's on the market that guide you through a meditation, and where you can meet with your angels and ask them for help and guidance, I quite like these as they help with my visualisation (something I find not an easy thing to do). Whatever way you choose to meditate or however you get to your relaxed state of awareness, ask for help and however subtle, look for signs that the angels are answering you.

Hope this little blog answers a few of your questions. Please feel free to comment on this blog, and I will try to get you an answer, even if I don to know myself, I will ask for an answer for you.

Here is a handy link to an interesting site about Angels

LIFE WORKS (And how yours can too)

Hi there friends old and new.
Just a few thoughts and ideas that have been rumbling round in my head over the past few weeks. I think maybe this is the right time to put them out to the universe.

As you know, I am an energy worker/natural healing therapist, which is a bit long winded, so I am thinking of making it easier and shorter. How about : Energy Healing Therapist? your comments and ideas would be gratefully received.

My work means the world to me and so do the people I connect with, and we offer healing and help to turn lives around for the highest good. It seems I am destined for this work on earth, as needy people are sent to me for help, whether it be at a bus stop, a coffee shop, through mutual friends; but its through the wonders of the internet where I seem to work most.
I work with spirit (souls passed over from this earth), crystals, universal energy, and with Angels (from the angelic realms and higher planes) to offer hands on healing and distant healing to whoever needs it (unconditionally), and distant healing is sent every night! I have a healing book where names of loved ones, friends, family and animals are written, and those receive the healing energy every night. Once in the book, the names are there always. The universe knows who needs it the most at any given time, and when they need it less, the energy goes to the needy ones, how cool is that!
But what many of you may not know is that I also offer guidance to people all over the world. Somehow, they contact me when they may be at their lowest ebb and in the most pain, having seen my page on facebook, or read some of the inspirational words and pictures posted on there. I can offer healing support, love and channelled guidance to help them feel better, coupled with positive healing energy, it seems to help.
It is only now, that I feel I can tell more people about this work. If I do all I can to bring more love and healing to this world, I am a very happy and content person.
Financially rich, I will never be lol, but abundance in many other ways flows to me by the feedback and kind words expressed by those people who connect with me.

So if its something small to you or something so big you are overwhelmed by it, you only need connect and help and advice will always be offered, and healing and love sent. If I can't help, I know a lot of helpers who are just waiting to be asked..........<:O)

*To add names to my distant healing book, please post in the comment box below, private message me, or comment on my daily thread posted on my facebook page

Energy In Colours

Don't you just hate grey cold days? Miserable and absolutely devoid of colour. I was griping today to someone on Facebook about this latest cold snap, and how depressing it is. Yes it was even getting to me as well which is an unknown thing as I am usually of a sunny nature.
A little while later I was in the bedroom leaning up against the radiator for warmth, looking out of the window when the sun came out from behind the clouds.
Slowly at first, I began to feel less in the dumps and within a few of minutes was feeling really good. Now I know that a bit of sun on you can do you the power of good, but I actually was feeling uplifted and sort of energised. I looked around me Intrigued to know why I was suddenly feeling so much better when I noticed a beautiful rainbow right over my heart Chakra, a reflection from the hanging crystal in the bedroom window which was being absorbed through my aura and into my heart centre. It's colourful vibrations were having an effect on my whole being.
It was an eye opener about all the colour therapy and crystal workshops and courses I attended, which had somehow been filed away in the drawers of my mind and forgotten about. I had to act upon it of course, as my life work is to promote healing and bring guidance to everyone for their highest good.

Bringing some colour into a dull grey day is like turning on a light. If you are cold, wearing warm colours like reds, oranges and yellows will have an effect on how you feel inside and out.
A couple of nights ago I was feeling a little deflated and low in energy. A friend mentioned holding some orange crystals to warm me up and give me some energy. I went and found some orange calcite, a couple of carnelian tumble stones, and some amber. I sat and held these stones, turning them over in my hands until they began to pulse, and I could feel the energy warming me and lifting my spirits. A great uplifting experience for anyone feeling tired, cold or low in energy.
It also works in reverse if you are anxious, stressed, or hyper, having too much energy. Holding Amethyst, Blue Lace Agate, and Rose Quartz will have a calming and balancing effect as it tunes into your own persoal energy system, which in turn will allow you to feel calm and relaxed. Wearing cool colours also have the same effect.
I used to have a conservatory where the top opening windows had a pattern on them in blue, mauve and green. When the sun shone through the windows, the colours were reflected all around the conservatory, and on the floor. We only had One dog back then, but we also had five cats. They would all seek out these colours to lay in, sometimes all laying together in the one spot of colour. They hadn't been on any colour therapy courses, they just seemed to have a built in knowing that the colour vibration and its energy was beneficial to them.

Back in history, some churches with stained glass windows would have healing times scheduled so that they corresponded with the strength of the sunlight that shone through them, seating people that were poorly to be bathed in the colours that streamed in.
We are all energy and we all vibrate and resonate at different frequencies, and the frequencies of different colours, tune into us, to bring balance back to our lives, for a whole, beneficial, healing experience.
More on Colour at a later date. Hope you enjoyed this snippet.
Love, light n laughter
