When the Nurturer Needs Nurturing

If you’re usually the one who holds space for others, you may notice that sometimes you start to feel… different.

You might feel more withdrawn.
Less patient.
More emotionally exposed around people you care about.

Not because you don’t love them, but because you’ve been giving from a place that hasn’t had a chance to refill.

Those who nurture often don’t realise how much they carry.
They’re used to being the steady one. The listener. The support.

So when their own emotional capacity starts to thin, it can feel confusing or even unsettling.

This isn’t burnout in the dramatic sense.
It’s quieter than that.

It’s the body and heart asking for care in return.

Often, what nurturers need isn’t more talking or fixing, it’s a place where they don’t have to hold anything at all. Where they can simply rest, receive, and soften without expectation.

If this resonates, know that there is nothing wrong with you.

Even those who give deeply need space to be gently supported themselves.

Your Body Holds What Your Mind Can’t

Stress and emotions aren’t always easy to notice in the moment. They can hide in your body and your energy field, your (aura), quietly accumulating over time.

Emotions are powerful. When you experience trauma, grief, or intense stress, your aura absorbs and carries those feelings. Normally, your energy field can process and release them naturally. But when it becomes overloaded, usually around six months after a traumatic event, those emotions can start showing up in your physical body as tension, aches, headaches, digestive issues, or other unexplained symptoms.

You might notice:

  • Muscle tightness or aches that don’t seem to have a cause

  • Fatigue that sleep alone doesn’t fix

  • Feeling “wired but tired” at the same time

  • Difficulty focusing or feeling grounded

  • An emotional heaviness or irritability

  • Headaches or migraines that seem to come out of nowhere

  • Difficulty concentrating, feeling “foggy,” or emotionally drained

  • A sense of heaviness or restlessness

This is your body and your aura’s way of signalling that it’s holding more than it can safely manage. When we ignore these signals, our body adapts. But adaptation isn’t the same as relief.

“I’m holding too much. I need support.”

Your body is always communicating. Learning to listen, and supporting it gently, allows your energy and emotions to move, helping you feel grounded, balanced, and alive again. 

This is where gentle healing comes in. Reiki, sound therapy, and energy work help by supporting your energy field to release the emotions that are trapped, giving your body a chance to recover and restore balance. When the aura is cleared and energy flows more freely, physical tension often eases and clarity returns.

It’s not about forcing change.
It’s about giving your body permission to let go.

And when that happens, your body, mind, and spirit begin to feel lighter, and more like you again. 

What Aura Photography Can Reveal About Your Energy

Have you ever wondered what your energy looks like? Aura photography captures the subtle colours surrounding your body, providing a visual glimpse into your emotional, mental, and spiritual state. Each colour and shade can tell a story, from areas of balance and vitality to spaces where your energy might feel blocked or heavy.

Many people are surprised by what they discover through aura photography. You might notice patterns that reflect your stress levels, emotional challenges, or areas where your personal energy is strong and vibrant. It’s a gentle and non-invasive way to connect with yourself on a deeper level and understand what your body and mind are expressing, even when you don’t have the words.

Aura photography isn’t just about the image itself. When combined with healing modalities like Reiki, sound therapy, or frequency work, it can be a powerful tool for self-awareness, reflection, and energy realignment. Seeing your aura can help guide you toward areas that may benefit from extra care, relaxation, or support, while also celebrating the colours and strengths that already shine within you.

Whether you’re curious about your energy, seeking clarity, or simply enjoy exploring new ways to connect with yourself, an aura photography session is a unique and insightful experience. It’s a wonderful first step toward understanding, nurturing, and harmonising your personal energy, helping you feel more grounded, balanced, and aware of the amazing energy you carry every day. 

My Journey With Iteracare

First I want to share how I discovered the wand. Just before I was in hospital a friend was telling me that she had been told about a wand that was helping people with all sorts of ailments. She mentioned that she was going to get one to try on her dad.

Her dad had an abscess on his leg that had been there for many years, he had been going to the hospital for quite a while to have it cleaned and dressed. His leg had lost circulation from the sore and had turned a purple colour. The doctors had told him there was nothing more they could do and he would need to have the leg amputated.

The wand was acquired and sent to her dad, who started using it as instructed twice daily. In 4 days the colour was returning to the leg and the abscess was starting to look a little better.

By the time the 4th day had come, I was In hospital with my own health issues. I had gone into septic shock only a couple of days before and my body had taken quite a pounding.  I was very fortunate to still be alive but that’s a story for another day, It turned out that I had a stone in my left Kidney. I asked if the wand could help me to recover and we decided that it quite possibly could considering all of the amazing testimonials we were reading. We borrowed a wand and in about 10 days when I had another ultrasound, my stone had reduced in size by 1/3. I had also started to notice that I was getting better very quickly and was starting to feel like my old self only 2 weeks from the date I was admitted to hospital in a terrible way. Septic shock can take anywhere from several weeks to 18 months to recover and here I was only a couple of weeks later feeling immensely better. I continued to use the wand and as the days progressed, I noticed other things happening. My skin was looking very clear and much more youthful in all areas of my body and spider veins that I had on my legs were starting to fade and become much less visible. My friend’s father was also improving and by week 8 for him, the sore was getting much better and he no longer needed amputation. 

I will continue my journey with the wand and also start to use it in treatments on clients because while sound and energy healing work on the etheric level the wand can help on the physical level.  You can see more information about the Iteracare wand or book a session below

Time to Cleanse

I have been clearing my homes and environment for as many years as I can remember on a regular basis. I generally smudge using dried Sage. You can buy pre-made smudge sticks, loose sage or you can grow it and dry it yourself. Sage can leave your home with a not so nice smell of smoke however it is a great way of clearing away the negative energy.  Cleansing a home can also be done spiritually in person or by distance.  Negative energy can build up over time and starts to cause tension and emotion within the home. It can be shifted on a daily basis by burning Incense, listening to uplifting music, filling the home with fresh flowers or plants or diffusing essential oils. Love and happiness will lift the vibration of an environment and laughter breaks up negative energy very quickly so always remember to bring out that inner child and stay playful with lots of laughter and silly times.

When we are surrounded by a build up of negative energy things can start to go wrong or we just don’t feel right. We tend to not want to go home or feel uncomfortable while at home or maybe just can’t seem to get moving or have any motivation.  We can also pick up energies from our work environments and carry those negative energies into our homes. We really need to keep ourselves and our homes clear of negativity by using essential oils or Incense on a daily basis.

Changes in the world can cause a build up of energy as well as the phases of the moon. Have you noticed that when the moon is full things can feel a little tense? Once we understand these energies we can work with them and use them to our advantage. Clearing on a regular basis can help us to make way for an amazing and abundant fun filled life. Just remember we are in some intense times at the moment so it is easy to pick up on others emotions so make sure you keep your energy clear by cleansing yourself (an epsom salt bath is a great way to rejuvenate yourself after a long day and cleanse your body of any negativity) and your environment whenever you feel out of sorts. 

Always remember to have fun and bring joy and laughter into each and every day.
