It’s time to change the narrative - and embrace the Feminine and her magic.

We must have the courage to welcome ALL - passionate rebel and imperfections, especially.

I've become a woman who knows how to devote to the life I long for, even amidst the inevitable challenges along the way.

“My point is, it was only the "deep work" of real healing that helped me to own my inner Creatrix and learn to claim my feminine soft-power to create life differently and own my healing gifts. Before that, I felt powerless. Learning to *heal my power* was absolutely VITAL in helping me manifest life differently - and create a magical life as a healer.”

Before I entered 'the work' I was living a busy, chaotic, mundane life, that I felt trapped in. I hear many of the women who feel the call to the 'deep work' of becoming a healer feeling the same, whilst simultaneously feeling that 'the work' is also 'non-essential' and 'self-indulgent". Both ideas which can stop us fully choosing it.
“I no longer suffer with any of the 'incurable' health challenges I had - no paralysed face, no chronic fatigue, no endometriosis, no chronic cystitis, no diabetes, no thyroid issues. Instead, the healing work has me energised, vital, and healthy. To me, that makes this the most *vital* and essential work of all. And the least selfish - because now I'm able to help others walk the same path and heal themselves, and go onto helping others the same way.”

One of the things that came up for me - and that I hear come up for many women feeling - in the call of soul to the 'deep work' of becoming a healer is the idea that it's 'non-essential' and 'self-indulgent". Both ideas which can (innocently) stop us fully choosing it.
“Being in love isn’t really about the hearts and flowers of Valentine’s day; this is a very ‘outside-in’ way of looking at love.” ~Nicole Barton
When we get too attached to this consumerism-driven celebration, not being in a relationship can leave us feeling alone. Feeling that love had disappeared is some of the deepest suffering I’ve experienced – but it also taught me a lot; I saw that if we just look a little deeper, we can see something different.
“I hadn’t known it, but all I had really ever needed was nothing more than someone to hold my hand and deeply listen.” ~ Nicole Barton
About 5 years ago, I was deeply suffering in a life that didn’t feel like it was my own, but felt more as if it were a bad dream. I remember feeling a sense of hopelessness, and much of the time it manifested as anger.
“What if we could find freedom from all of our suffering by simply embracing the art of doing nothing?” ~Nicole Barton
I’m here to share exactly how we can do that, offering three ways we can begin to reconnect to our inner wisdom, instead of looking outside of ourselves for even more ‘to do’ in order to feel better.
As World Mental Health Day October 10th approaches, I explain why it’s time we all ditched self help and #DoNothing…
In an age where our society is deeply suffering with uncertainty; with the social illumination of issues like #metoo, increasing suicide rates and mental health challenges such as stress, anxiety and depression at an all-time high – not to mention the prevalence of huge political and environmental unrest, we are constantly living in our heads.
