I write a gratitude list each night before I go to bed – it is amazing how many things there are to be grateful for each day. Today I am grateful for my son Edward and his wonderful support in so many areas of my life. xxx I’m grateful for public transport, for fantastic books, […]

My next workshop is coming up on Saturday, 3rd September and I will be sharing with you my experiences using the Bach Flower Remedies. I first came across them in 1985 when I was attending a Herbs for Home Use course and it was, of course, the perfect timing. I then joined the Bach Flower […]

It is also a wonderful experience to be around like-minded people – so important for our general well being. I also got […]
