Reiki can be very helpful as we transition between the seasons. It rebalances the body’s chakras (energy centres) and allows the energy to flow more freely, acting as a sort of reset button for the mind, body and spirit.

“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower” (Albert Camus)

Today we celebrate the Autumn Equinox and the start of my favourite season. Summer is lovely while it lasts but as I sit here listening to the rain gently falling on the skylight, it’s as if Nature is doing its job and cleansing all around us.

It may still be February but the first signs of spring are already starting to appear in our garden - tiny snowdrops, brightly coloured crocuses and cheerful yellow daffodils - my favourite flowers (it’s a Welsh thing). The birds sound more optimistic and temperatures are slowly rising. The days are gradually getting longer as we anticipate the end of what seems to have been quite a long winter.
