Waterfall walk
Today we did one of my favourite short hikes. It's such a beautiful walk that ends in a couple of waterfalls immersed in the forest. It was wonderful to climb up the mountain feeling different currents of air, sometimes fresh sometimes very warm.
Floating
These pictures were taken the other day during one of the hikes, I love them! Really feeling the support from the water to surrender and recharge. I love the mysterious atmosphere too
Faery pool
Magical woodland with faery pools ππΎ perfect environment to spend the hottest day of the year so far a couple of days ago!
Lakes!!!
Yesterday we explored a beautiful area that I was looking forward to visiting. We did a great hike around four lakes and rested by one of them. Paradise. Crystal clear water, amazing temperature, dragonflies, warm wind, peacefulness. Just perfect!
Favourite trek
This is one of my favourite local treks. Gorge, forest, river, prairie... it has it all. The dip is also nearly at the top so it's great to cool down after the effort of walking up! I love this place!
Joy
A very joyous me today!
Full Moon density
I don't know about you, but I'm feeling this full moon very intensely; the energetic field is very dense, plans collapse, emotional instability present in the air... Even one of my cats is completely run down. Hard stuff.I hope you're navigating well this day!
More clarity
More clarity in the sense of less intrusive thoughts this morning feels like a relief. Coming back from a week long intensive residential was not an easy ride, but feeling the shift now ππΎ clearer mind in a clear river π
Frogs
Little frogs are around ππΎsuch a joy to see them!Yesterday and today I'm enjoying some sunbathing by the river, it feels that this summer I haven't done it a lot yet.
Lammas/Imbolc blessings
Beginning of autumn in the North and beginning of spring in the South.Celebrating abundance, harvest, and the sense of flow and ease of having worked hard and now one can harvest what has been sown.Starting August with tranquility, dropping jobs in order to bring more simplicity and connection with others into my life, more room for spontaneity and expression.
Going back
I spent the last week on an intensive residential as part of my training. It was wonderful, but this time it was so busy that I could only dip in the river once! On my way back home yesterday evening I stopped by the sea and went for a revitalising dip ππΎβ€οΈ it reminded me so much of the Welsh coast!
Floaty being
Lovely last swim of the day after watering the garden ππΎ feeling great after my beloved time looking after the plants, so much joy!!!

Little break
Some snippets of today's time at the river ππΎ everything is lush and alive!
Flow flow flow
This morning when I went to water the garden one of my cats followed me, and accompanied me to the river. I'm not super keen on that because there's a road to be crossed... It is what it is; learning to let go and accept it. I trust the flow. Also feeling the flow of my blood and offering it to the river, now with many tadpoles. The flow of life. Embracing the flow.
Creativity flow
I'm feeling super creative this weekend and I'm loving it. Doing DIY and working with textiles while the sun is too intense, and creative in the garden in the early hours and late evening. Plus a few transitional swims, and naps ππΎ I love it when I can ride the flow like this.How is your weekend feeling?
What a week!
Such a magical week, and it's only Friday ππΎ Packed with beautiful people, experiences and delights. Also the veggie and medicinal gardens are growing very healthy! Blessed! May you have a lovely start of the weekend
Heart centre
Feeling the expansion of my heart after my training ππΎ so nourished and content. Glad to be back home as well.
Early swim
Yesterday's dip at 7am before getting ready for my training. Blessed to have this place in the venue! Great for waking up, and recharging pauses ππΎ
New stream
I'm away on a training in a place I hadn't been before. It has a stream so I checked it out before and after the sessions. Not very deep and a bit too warm for the warm temperatures, but it's good to have this opportunity on a training that's not on ecotherapy!
Blessed rain
Blessed rain and temperature drop! It's so nice so feel this freshness again! If I look tired it's because I'm really tired; I've haven't been sleeping my regular hours recently, a combination of having day light until late and very active cats from before dawn. The river woke me up a little though ππΎ
Cooling down
Another day of high temperatures; so much that I lost a couple of baby lettuces yesterday to the piercing sun!It's very refreshing to be in the water, but as soon as I get out it feels boiling again! So I mainly keep indoors while I can, apart from very early in the morning and after sunset. Napping with my cats is also a must-do these days.
Heatwave
It's incredibly hot and humid these days. So much that I can only be outdoors to be in the water. Grateful to have the river nearby. The water looks so beautiful, clear, and green, and there's lots of blue and green damselflies flying around. Birdsong is pretty spectacular too. May your Sunday be enjoyable and peaceful π
Early swim
I went to water the garden at 7am, delightful, so peaceful. I water manually going up and down between the garden and the river with a watering can, so it's a slow, intentional process. It's like a pilgrimage in a way. Nothing fancy, no technology, just my own body and energy. It's a good way to measure my energy levels and how I feel, not only physically but also mentally and emotionally. The same task can feel relaxing or annoying, depending on other factors. Right now and this sea...
After work beach
Heat wave here. I decided to go to the beach to cool down. In the water it was lovely and refreshing, also walking along the shore. I had never seen so many people in this usually very empty place, so it was a complete different vibe. And again I was the only one naked (being this a nudist beach traditionally). Maybe someone will get inspired to try
Clear
Everything grows so quickly these days. I hadn't cleared one of the entrances to the river in months. Thankfully a neighbour did it this week and it's accessible again ππΎ
End of the day in the sea
I had a great day yesterday, I started gardening before 7am. The weather forecast looked very dry and really hot for some days so I went to water the veggies enjoying the peaceful and refreshing morning. I worked in the garden for a few hours, I was in a trance state. It was gorgeous. Other different things during the day - a combo of maintenance and writing (and basically in the shade, it was really hot) and I decided to drive to the coast for an end of the day swim. I swam with a cormorant a c...
Beautiful beautiful day
Yesterday was bliss. Fully energised and present. Full of love too
Quick river time
Laptop screen decompression by sowing some beans and dipping in the river; the joys of studying at home today ππΎ
Releasing
My body is asking me to slow down and simplify. A part of me that is very demanding and gets exited with offering new workshops and collaborate with people is very active, and right now is not doing me a favour. I noticed that being bombarded with posts on social media about productivity, being your highest self, reaching your full potential, serving etc put lot of pressure on top of my inner pressure. I pause and listen to what I need, and my body tells me the priorities. The moment I verbalise...
