Is it really August?

As I sit and write this blog it’s raining, after the recent heat it came as a bit of a shock this morning to wake up to the sound of rain and a wardrobe crisis to follow!!

It’s all very chilled here at Find Your Diva, otherwise known as Diva HQ, dspite all the creating, writing and laughter that goes on.

Our range of Holistic Therapies has increased and the introduction of Oriental Hot Oil Massage has been very popular so far. The heat of the oil allows a deeper relase within the muscles of the body, perfect for tired, aching backs.

week, this has been our special offer treatment and we have decided to continue it into next week! Yippee! So to book your Oriental Hot Oil Back Massage just £10. To book please call 07948 372 965, thank you.

 

A day of loss

 

Today there seems to have been so many losses around the world and by many means, at the hands of others and with their own hand. My sadness today is not just for the families that have suffered those losses and will continue to feel that loss at every birthday, every christmas, every milestone. Death may take the body but it is a future without those we love that haunts us most, over and over again tainting precious moments.

As I read the comments being posted on facebook, or should be called ‘foolbook’ I am appauled, I read so many hateful writings about Amy Winehouse. It is bizarre how a death brings out the ugliness of so many. AMy winehouse was a woman, a woman who struggled hugely with addiction in the public eye, another creative soul lost to drugs and alcohol but more importantly she was someone’s daughter, someone’s grandaughter, someone’s cousin, someone’s love and someone’s hope and whilst those who loved her music, as did I, have lost her energy, it is her family who have lost the most. Beginning years ago when they lost her to drugs.

It does not matter how or where death finds us, it does matter if we are children or adults, rich or poor, if we are killed or we kill ourselves, we all leave behind us a void that can never be filled.

There but for the grace of God go I, and you!

Sleep in peace now you are back to black Amy Winehouse.

Love and blessings

Bank Holiday!

Well it’s almost the end of another week here at Diva HQ, great developments happening but its all a bit hush hush so nothing to reveal today.

After spending most of last weekend celebrating various things with good friends I am glad to have a peaceful weekend ahead and even more so to a weekend in Devon that is planned soon.

So many people struggle to make time for themselves in their daily life and it is the quickest way to lose touch with who we truly are, hope you find your space this weekend! Happy Holidays!

Change is in the Air!

Dear All

I recently made the decision to simplify life a little, to step back and do less in order to have more. More time for joy, more time for family and friends, more time to focus on client work and more time to write, and so far it has been a great decision.

No more travelling up and down the M4, instead I have created my own little haven to provide, coaching, consultations and treatments in and I am loving how it is allowing me the time to connect with people again. A thought came to mind recently ‘are you creating a business or busi – ness Sam’? and I realised that my life was crammed and yet not full of the moments I enjoy most. Now I have time to actually enjoy the moments I am creating, to sit and laugh with my children without feeling under pressure to be doing this or doing that and I am able to truly listen to not only those around me but to my own inner guidance.

Times are changing, People are changing. Our roles are changing. Our roles change because our own needs change, as in our own need to grow and challenge who we have become into freeing us to be who we truly are and that process will always require change to some degree, it is a question of how much we enjoy or embrace that change.
