Join me for a gentle visualisation inspired by the recent lunar eclipse and the golden light of late summer. Together, we'll reflect on what’s come to fruition in your life, gently release what no longer serves you, and plant new seeds of intention into the fertile soil of change. With a nourishing reading by Nadine Stare and grounding imagery from the Qigong tradition, this episode invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and honour the beauty of both endings and beginnings.

Whether you're feeling the shift of the season or standing at the threshold of something new, this practice is here to hold you. Let it be a soft place to land and a reminder that change can be kind.

Settle in. Take a breath. And let the eclipse energy guide you home to yourself.

In this special summer episode, I invite you into a gentle, sensory-rich space for rest, reflection, and stillness.

We begin with a tender poem titled Summer by Lizzie Rosewood, a long-time student and supporter of our yoga and Qigong community. Her words are a golden thread through this practice - a meditation on presence, softness, and the subtle joys of the season.

What follows is a guided relaxation designed to help you soften the body, settle the mind, and welcome a moment of calm. With imagery of butter mountains, creaky doors eased by warmth, and crumpets kissed by summer light, this episode blends poetic language with grounded mindfulness.

Perfect for winding down, recharging, or simply reconnecting with yourself in the quieter corners of your day.

🌼 Features:
• Poem by Lizzie Rosewood
• Guided breathwork and body awareness
• Soothing summer visualisation
• Restorative, slow-paced practice for all levels

In this deeply moving episode, I’m joined by Georgie Ogden - a qualified naturopath, certified Gut Restore Practitioner, and mother to Archie, who lives with Dravet Syndrome, a rare and severe form of epilepsy. Georgie’s story is one of resilience, heartbreak, healing, and hope.

Together we explore the emotional and practical realities of raising a child with such high needs, and how this experience has shaped Georgie’s family, her identity, and her work. She shares with extraordinary honesty what it has meant to walk through trauma, find presence in chaos, and create joy even in the darkest of times.

Our conversation touches on:

• Archie's diagnosis and life with Dravet Syndrome
• The strain and strength in relationships through crisis
• Navigating grief, trauma, and a new kind of parenthood
• Breathwork, nutrition, and rituals for staying grounded
• The arrival of baby Oscar and the healing he brought
• How Georgie now supports SEND children and families through gut restoration
• The critical role of community, specialist care, and asking for help

Georgie’s personal and professional journey has led her to become a passionate advocate for family health — particularly for children with special educational needs and disabilities. Her work is already making a difference in the lives of many.

Young, Brave, and Beside the Dying: A Funeral Director’s Unexpected Journey

In this special episode, Kay is joined by David Billington, a funeral director who found his calling at an unusually young age. With warmth and honesty, David shares the story behind his vocation, the emotional depth of his daily work, and what it means to walk alongside others in their moments of deepest loss.

Whether you're navigating your own grief or simply curious about the life of someone who works so closely with death, this episode offers tenderness, insight, and a deep respect for the sacredness of saying goodbye.

In this heartfelt episode, I’m joined by Jules Cooper - yoga teacher, gong therapist, Akashic Records reader and mother of four. Jules shares her story with openness and grace, beginning with life as a footballer’s wife and unfolding through the unimaginable loss of her son, Finn.

This is an episode about holding space when you’ve walked through fire. About rebuilding from the heart outward. And about how sometimes, our deepest pain can become the root of our most powerful purpose.

The Gift of Kalkan - A Guided Journey into Stillness and Beauty

In this episode, I share a quiet reflection inspired by an unexpected invitation to the coastal town of Kalkan, Turkey - a place that reminded me how healing it is to pause, to breathe, and to simply be.

Through soft storytelling and gentle visualisation, I invite you to walk sun-warmed cobbled streets, breathe in the scents of jasmine and rose oil, and feel the kindness of strangers and the wisdom of slowness.

This isn’t a travel story. It’s a meditation on presence, peace, and the beauty of unexpected stillness. Let this episode be a gentle reset - a return to yourself through scent, sound, colour and calm.
