“For now she need not think of anybody. She could be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of - to think; well not even to think. To be silent; to be alone. All the being and the doing, expansive, glittering, vocal, evaporated; and one shrunk, with a sense of solemnity, to being oneself, a wedge-shaped core of darkness, something invisible to others…and this self having shed its attachments was free for the strangest adventures. When life sank down for a moment, the range of experience seemed limitless.”

Living itself
An art,
That is the

“What do cats
Remember of days?
They remember
The ways in from the cold,
The warmest spot,
The place of food.
They remember the places of pain,
Their enemies,
The irritation of birds,
The warm fumes of the soil,
The usefulness of dust.
They remember the creak of a bed,
The sound of their owner’s footsteps.
The taste of fish,
The loveliness of cream.
Cats remember
What is essential of days.
Letting all other memories go
As of no worth
They sleep sounder than we,
Whose hearts break
Remembering so many
Inessential things.“

Wishing all those here in the UK a very happy Bank Holiday Monday and may everyone everywhere sleep as soundly as cats.

“When we listen
To certain types of music
Or soak our eyes with paintings
Or fill our lungs with poems,
It all begins to blend
And run through us,
Quietly becoming
Part of our blood,
Flesh and bones.
We always carry
The art we’ve loved.”

May 17th and here in the UK phase three officially opens up where we are able to visit our beloved museums, galleries and theatres again.
As we share in the excitement of the cultural life of our cities being returned to us, let us take a moment to realise just how fortunate we are that our health circumstances allow us to participate.
Today I’m thinking of some of my dear followers who due to debilitating chronic illnesses such as Myalgic Encephalitis have no prospect to a life outside of their homes or even their beds.
May we never take our good fortune for granted and think on those who are unable to join us.
I shall be taking a short countryside break towards the end of the week so there wont be any post next Monday but will be back on the following one.
Until then, take care and much love 🤍

“The trees are coming into leaf
Like something almost being said;
The recent buds relax and spread,
Their greenness is a kind of grief.
.
Is it that they are born again
And we grow old? No, they die too,
Their yearly trick of looking new
Is written down in rings of grain.
.
Yet still the unresting castles thresh
In fullgrown thickness every May.
Last year is dead, they seem to say,
Begin afresh, afresh, afresh.”

“She always had that look about her, that look of otherness, of eyes that see things much too far and of thoughts that wander off the edge of the world.”

“Do not ask your children
To strive for extraordinary lives.
Such striving may seem admirable,
But it is the way of foolishness.
Help them instead to find the wonder
And the marvel of an ordinary life.
Show them the joy of tasting
Tomatoes, apples and pears.
Show them how to cry
When pets and people die.
Show them the infinite pleasure
In the touch of a hand.
And make the ordinary
Come alive for them.
The extraordinary will
Take care of itself.”

“When we nourish ourselves
With good people,
Projects,
Surroundings,
Scenery, love,
Magic, beauty and self-care,
We radiate light into the world
And continually sharpen
Our vision, perception,
And clarity all at once.
This in turn spreads
To other beings which
Spreads to even more.
Remember that
One tiny drop
Can raise an ocean.
Keep wanting.
Desiring. Doing.
Breathing in the sweet things.”

Returning to the most privileged and beloved work today. Twenty five years of touching bodies and the sense of reverence is as strong as ever...

“Ah, kindness.
What a simple way
To tell another struggling soul
That there is love
To be found in this world.”

Wishing everyone a very Happy Easter Monday and hope you have all been enjoying the long weekend with this beautiful weather. Nature has definitely been reflecting this wonderful time of new life and awakening.

“Who am I, you ask?
I am made from
All the people I’ve encountered
And all the things I have experienced.
Inside, I hold the laughter of my friends,
The arguments with my parents,
The chattering of young children,
And the warmth from kind strangers.
Inside, there are stitchings
From cracked hearts,
Bitter words from heated arguments,
Music that gets me through,
And emotions I cannot convey.
I am made from
All these people and moments.
That is who I am.”

Apologies for not posting last Monday, I was doing a ten day Ayurvedic cleanse and took the decision to support the process by being very quiet at home and not being on social media. I now look forward to catching up with your feeds and seeing how you’ve all been doing.
Much love Sarah x

“I hold a hope in me
That the reason
We all feel so heavy
Is that we carry
A little piece of
Each other
Inside us.”
