Welcome to Angelic Complementary Therapies June 2023 Newsletter

I do hope you are well and yes, I feel summer is finally here! The sun was very much due, especially as we are now in exam season. Both of my sons are neck deep in GCSE’s and A’ levels – all going well so far and they’re nearly finished. My youngest seems most happy about not having to wear his school uniform ever again!

I too have been very bust studying and completing my case studies for Facial Reflexology. I was overwhelmed by the response I had in those offering to be a case study for me. Thank you so very much to all of those that were “guinea pigs” for me. I’ve submitted all my studies, work book, anatomy and physiology research and fingers crossed I’ll be able to offer Facial Reflexology in the very near future.

I’ve also been updating my website. If you haven’t visited it for a while I’d recommend a look. I’ve added loads of useful information and updated areas as well www.angelicct.com

One of my BIGGEST highlights from last month was seeing my absolute favourite band of all time – Duran Duran, and before that, climbing the O2 with my niece. (two more adventures from my 50 things to do).

Walking over the O2 was brilliant, and steeper in areas than I imagined. I was so lucky to share the experience the my niece who has also wanted to do this activity for years. The views of London were fantastic. Now… Duran Duran… words cannot say how EXCITED I was leading up to the concert and during. I absorbed every single moment. Fully present and they did not disappoint at all. They completed the show with one of their massive hits, Rio. From what I could see, every single person was up, dancing, singing and absolutely enjoying the moment, and the band were blown away too. Rio is such a summery song too, perfect for today’s weather.

Another huge event that happened last month was the coronation of King Charles III. Whilst I was in London (for the concert) I took the opportunity to visit The Mall, and the surrounding area. Whilst watching the Coronation on TV, I kept thinking how much mum would have loved the ceremony.

Mindful Melting

Here is a nice relaxing 5-10 minute exercise for you to try each day when you get home from work, or are feeling stressed or overwhelmed. All you need is a comfortable place to sit and a little privacy.

1. Relax into your seat. Focus on your breathing, the gentle rising and falling of your belly.

2. Let go of all concerns. Leave the working day behind you. Focus on getting more and more comfortable and see how that feels.

3. Imagine yourself melting into everything around you. With practice you might begin to feel at one with your surroundings.

This is a great way of releasing stress that may have built up during the day.

Just a thought - there’s always time to...

Be kind.

Smile to let someone know you hear them.

Be compassionate.

Listen.

Offer a helping hand.

Even when we think there's no time, it's at these time that we most need to make the time.

Because at the end of the day, these are the things that matter.

Crystal/Gem of the month – Tiger Iron

This crystal, Tiger Iron (not to be mistaken for Tigers Eye) is wonderful for grounding by releasing excess energy into the earth. It has strong healing energy and enhances creativity and artistic abilities. Tiger Iron is helpful if you are suffering from deep exhaustion – be that emotional, mental burn-out or stress. It is also beautiful to look at.

Quote for the month

“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”

(This picture was taken of my son 6 years ago, he never fails to make me smile).

This is a time to learn and adapt. You are being guided to slow down, take your time, take in the current moment, and allow space for events to occur.

I wonder what June has in store for each of us? Lots of sunny days I hope.

I genuinely hope for everyone’s nearest and dearest to be healthy, happy and content -and lots of smiles too. Be kind to all, but mostly yourself, and I look forward to seeing you soon, with Love and Light.
