25.01.2022 I have just been watching some TedX talks on horses and "equine therapy". The first few really aggravated me. A few terms people gave to the work with horses; "USE" and "MIRROR". I truly believe if you are using a horse, you're in the wrong game. They are not tools and by using a horse as a tool you have taken away their choice and denounced their sentience. The term mirror or mirroring in equine therapy also limits the true ability of horses and it creates a human perce...ption of their behaviours instead of truly listening to the wisdom of the horse and what they see, feel, say and how they connect with us. In no way shape or form do I "Do" Equine Therapy. While most days I struggle for a simple explanation of how I work with horses the best and most simplest explanation is this: united as a herd we co-facillitate a session of energy work that allows a persons own innate ability to heal to be accessed. The TedX Talk below is presented by Rosalyn Berne PHD She is in communication with sentients of all forms and believes as one connects to heart and opens to the freedom of letting go you can begin to hear and respond to others who dont use verbal communication. She describes it as "Pulsations of the heart moving synergistically through the brain". Thus allowing you to transcend what Dr Rosalyn calls "Supra-linguistic interspecies flow of communication." As I find myself resonating less with many people who present their horses for work in this field, I found myself enjoying this TedX talk and felt inspired by Dr Rosalyn's work and ability. I hope you enjoy it too. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nUCmlvoLW4A

24.01.2022 Yesterday I worked on two people who were experiencing pain. When I finished I asked how their pain was going, they both looked a little shocked "ahh...the pains gone". Funnily enough when we started the session they both were aware of the pain in their physcial bodies, however it shifted and became their newness so quickly neither realised it was gone until asked!! Our bodies have the ability to shift, process, integrate and heal so qickly, and we accept the change just a...s fast. How did it happen so quickly? That is the beauty of working with peiec, first I always work to release life moments from the layers of self. This release removes energetic blocks and allows for the flow to return between out energetic and physical being. In one case I worked on some threads to other people then did some peiec energetic bodywork. While the other person I released life moments followed by energetic bodywork. peiec is energy work that allows blocks to be shifted, it allows our layers of self to lift in vibration, it can assist in our awakening and connection to higher conciousness. One of my favourite things is when people come back and say I just notice that I am more peaceful as I go through my day, things dont bother me or upset me like they use to. Everyone has a different reason for coming and their experiences are as unique and individual as themselves. The work is guided by intuitive interaction, listening to what is being shown and given in the space , and when a person is open to accepting what is being given. Sessions can be undertaken via video call, in person or you can join my herd of horses in Bullsbrook for a powerful healing experience. Where the horses work with their own energy and wisdom to support you, while immersed in the beauty of the Avon Valley.

24.01.2022 I love the beauty that is created around a person as they heal self. When you come home to self, healing flows to generations past. Allowing our generations forward to be free of our families trauma. Your shifts, releases and your healing flows through to family, community, state and country. By simply allowing yourself to heal within changes the energy of the world around you.

Located in the picturesque Avon Valley you will enjoy a unique day of embodiment, healing, meditation while immersing yourself with out herd and the beauty of nature.

23.01.2022 Sam thought I was taking to long to make his breakfast and took matters into his own hands! So much personality and cheek in one little horse.

22.01.2022 At the end of a beautiful day I thank the herd. Thank Vicki for co-facillitating. I thank the special people who came and allowed day to flow with out expectation, who accepted what was given in the space and shared the company of an amazing group. I never tire of seeing what unfolds when spending time with horses, who are free to be horses and do their unique and gifted work. Many blessings to Anandi for sharing and creating the amazing and powerful energy and work shared to...day. And now we rest........

21.01.2022 Preparing ourselves for a client. The horses start feeling the client about hr before they arrive and will flow to them for around hr after the session ends. There is a lot of energy, pushing on others and moving each other around. Mellie has had an explosion of high energy yet controlled, movement and has pushed Morris out of the arena and is holding him out, while continuing to ask him to move with body language and energy through the fence. Always a fascinating experien...ce. Looking forward to what the session will hold. The uniqueness and power of the herd is such a sacred space to be in. I have played Anandi Sano, and worked through some layers of the herd and myself in preparation.

20.01.2022 Happy International Dog Day!! So grateful for my beautiful girls, and all those that have filled my heart before!

19.01.2022 We have moved our retreat from Fathers Day!!! To Saturday 5th September!! Looking forward to sharing a gorgeous day with the herd and enjoying the beginning of Spring. ... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1435470929990457&id=393254227545471

19.01.2022 Recently I have been working with a number of Mothers and their children. The feedback has been amazing. Parents are noticing changes in the childrens behaviours, emotional capacity and level of peace. As well parents seeing the changes people around them noticing and commenting on them too. I truly find so much joy in supporting parents as they navigate parenthood. I have been working with an amazing woman who supports her incredible child in so many ways. The other day I received this feedback after a recent peiec session. This just highlights the gift of peiec, and how gently it allows shifts to occur.

18.01.2022 I mean 10 isnt really that many!!!! Is it???

17.01.2022 Welcome committee on the driveway today!!

17.01.2022 Last night I enjoyed attending Anandi Sano's live healing event. It was an incredible evening where we sat in the beautiful flow of Anandi's energy while she delivered her unique and powerful guided vocal healing. While last night I got little sleep as my body and mind processed and integrated the amazing healing I am feeling very peaceful today. I have just finished work for the week and am off to enjoy some horsey cuddles and spend some time with loved ones. Wishing every...one a gorgeous weekend. May you find some time to stop and be, just for yourself. Find connection and peace within. You are worthy, you are loved, you are beautiful.

16.01.2022 The beautiful energy of spring is definitely upon us! The herd have nearly all shed their winter coats, there is a lot of delicious grass to be munched on and the view as spectacular as ever. It is a perfect time to come and join the herd for a peaceful peiec session. The horses work with their energy to create shifts in your energetic and physical self, as the intuitively connect, hold space and gently support you.... With peiec we work to release life moments which have created blocks and remove you from feeling peaceful and calm as well as interrupting your connection to self and wellbeing. Through gentle guided conversation led by your own energetic shifts life moments are brought to the surface of your layers to the be released. Healing with the herd is a unique and powerful experience. We are the only place anywhere in the world who offers this particular way of healing and connecting to self. Our herd have been through a deep process of healing with the assistance of peiec also. This allows us to asssit the herd so they carry no trauma through their interactions with our clients. We have sessions available next week!!

15.01.2022 This beautiful feedback brought me to tears, such incredible insight and change.

14.01.2022 The change of season can be interesting time, we see how quickly our year has gone, look forward to new times and seeing how our local environment changes. As Ive grown, learnt and experienced a different perspective something that showed up as Spring was arriving was the possibility of life moments being brought up. When professional mental health workers talk about trauma they can discuss a persons "triggers": smells, colours, people, noises, different environments etc. ...Particular times of year can also trigger and bring up life moments. Some people may expereince a repetitive pain or illness at the same each year, but as the length of time between is so long the pattern may not be recognised. Life moments that need to be released can show up in simple ways. As perception about trauma shifts and there is a greater understanding about how it is created, we are guided with the power of peiec to see them simply as life moments which need to be released. This is the beauty of peiec. Through intuitive and guided conversations where your energetic shifts are seen and felt by the practitioner you are gently able to find life moments which need to be released. This conversations allows for your life moments to be shown within your layers. Following the conversation which is deliberately used to bring up life moments the peiec practitioner will work through yours layers to release them. This release process allows for your energy to lift in vibration, your layers can be more peaceful, where there becomes more space to allow for more life moments to arise to be healed. The flow between your energetic self and physical being experiences more coherence and connection. As you process and integrate through your whole self people find a more peaceful way of being, a greater capacity for life and they are able to access a greater awareness and conciousness. With a new and deeper awarness what will the powerful change of season bring for you? XO

14.01.2022 As most in Australia would know today is RUOK DAY! Today I took the opportunity to talk to my kids about what the day meant. Then I asked them what would they do if a friend told them they werent ok, or if they could see their freinds werent ok. What an amazing conversation followed. This allowed us to talk about how they would feel, how they could seek help, and who they can talk to if they arent feeling ok.... We also talked about what not feeling ok might look like and feel like for themselves. My kids have access to a safe adult who isnt myself, incase they ever feel the need to share information, explore feelings or tell an adult important things. This safe person is allowed to make decisions on my behalf, they can reach out for help and be spoken to in confidence. They are a trusted person who can support my kids if they ever feel they cant talk to me. Today was a reminder of how important these conversations are. With friends, family and with my kids. Reaching out and asking for help can be hard, it can be hard addmitting to yourself you need help. I dont want these things to be difficulties my kids ever face. They are precious beyond words and I hope they always know Ive got their back in everyway!!

13.01.2022 "In a cool solitude of trees Where leaves and birds a music spin, Mind that was weary is at ease, New rhythms in the soul begin." ~ William Kean Seymour... The beauty of choice, the herd are as free as possible through a captive life. With room to move and freedom to show up as they are. For the past two days they chose not to come in for food. Thats ok as long as they are healthy and well. It is a standing invitation anyways, and they know that. It was so lovely to see them all moving freely through the trees today and deciding they will come in say hi and enjoy some breakfast. I love that as I call out hello to each horse by name they stop and a look up. There is a little girls joy that her ponies are happy to see her and know who she is! Samsam is doing Samsam and was enjoying a nibble of green grass in the shade of the trees on the driveway. Paddocks arent always his thing. As long as his safe its mostly ok. It is special that this is how the herd get to live, it changes the interactions between them and us when there is choice. It is very warming when they choose to come and say hi, and very powerful when they choose to come and help someone heal. So deeply grateful, today the horses and I are discussing an opportunity of some new beginnings....I look forward to sharing what we come up with in the next few days.

12.01.2022 Mr M helping getting everyones breakfast sorted before our group meditation this morning. Supermodel poses at the ready, who needs make up and hair done when you look this amazing ala-nautural!!

11.01.2022 How do you refuel your soul, feed you heart, replenish your spirit? My go to place is the outdoors, walking on the dirt, sitting in peace and listening to Mother Natures music. Allowing my body to rest and restore itself, to find its centre and balance. This weekend I was blessed to spend a gorgeous weekend downsouth, moving amongst the beautiful Karri forrest. It was so wonderful to just spend time with my one of my fav people a relax into the environment.... Offer yourself time, allow your self to take 5 without guilt or feeling like time could be better spent. Take a moment to restore your balance and ground yourself with a connection to the flow of earths energy. Kick off your shoes and stand outdoors on the ground!! Gift yourself the beauty that nature offers your soul. Welcome to a new week of possibilities.

11.01.2022 For anyone who has the desire to delve into their own spiritual growth, deepen their connection to self and awaken to all the beauty and possibilities of life; Anandi Sano is celebrating her incredible journey by offering a beautiful opportunity to someone to discover themselves with peiec. peiec has changed my life, has changed the lives of my family, my animals and has allowed me to work helping ithers in such a beautiful way. Take a moment and listen to Anandi Sano and if... this heartfelt opportunity inspires you, why not take the next step and share your why and see what unfolds. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1028614604230202&id=526650917706073

10.01.2022 One of the beautiful things that peiec sessions offer is a deep restoration and connection to being peaceful. I love the repeated feedback of people saying they feel calmer, were able to remain calm during a difficult situation, their family has noticed they are calmer and happier. Finding freedom from pain whether it is physical or emotional allows you to reconnect to inner peace. Releasing life moments that have taken you away from connection to self, have lessened your c...apacity to experience and feel happiness and joy can assist with restoring and increasing your capacity to be present and not go into overwhelm. I the love the simplicity and gentleness in which peiec is able to bring the beauty of life back to oneself.

10.01.2022 Such an incredible week!! Thank you to those who allow me to stand with them as they courageously step into their deepest hurts and vulnerability. I am once again in awe of the human spirit!!

09.01.2022 The Kindness Project offers a space to find a deeper connection to self. Transformation sessions use the beauty and techniques of peiec healing. This powerful yet gentle energy work allows a person to release life moments to create a more peaceful existence. When our life experiences have had a negative impact within us we may experience pain, discomfort, mental or physical dis-ease. These things can pull us away from living our desired lives. ... The Kindness Project offers a few options to undertake peiec Transformation sessions; Sessions can be done in the comfort and safety of your home via video call. This allows people to receive sessions anywhere in the world. You may choose to undertake sessions supported by our beautiful herd of horses, horses have a unique way of seeing a persons truth. They are able to assist in creating deep energetic shifts and offer their powerful support while in their company. The herd is located in the beautiful and picturesque Avon Valley in Bullsbrook. Transformation sessions are also available in Aveley. You are able to take peaceful time for self while laying on the massage table as you relax and receive peiec. Every few weeks we also hold a Meditation with the Herd. Limited to approx 10 people, we invite the herd to join us for a Meditation. The horses are free to choose their interactions and often take time to help create shifts for those in attendance. Each person also receives a peiec healing during the meditation. This is a unique and devine way to offer yourself some peacefulness. The Kindness Project offers a unique way to come home to self, by supporting the process and assisting you to release life moments that are holding you bound. If you wish to awaken, delve into your connection to self, build firmer boundaries, find more peace within why not take a transformation journey!

09.01.2022 Tranquillity: freedom from disturbance. The beauty that arrives when allowing yourself to heal. I love how peaceful clients feel after a peiec session. When they arrived feeling overwhelmed, tired, stressed or in pain. Peiec allows the connection to self to become greater, a beautiful flow between your energetic self and physical self, and allows the overwhelm to wash away. It has been beautiful this week to see softness return to clients faces and to see their bodies less c...ontracted. I love hearing the comment of "wow, I just feel so much more peaceful!" If you are willing to accept what awaits you, change can take place quickly and gently. Awaken to all that is available for you and live life with a deeper connection to your core.

09.01.2022 Last weekend I attended a virtual retreat with Anandi Sano. The beauty and intensity over the three days is just mindblowing!! This week I have felt myself processing and integrating deeply. It is quite the journey. We sign up for three days, however 7 days prior the energy starts to flow and prepare us for the retreat. The week following is a deep state of allowing life moments, emotions and the physical shifts to occur while taking time to appreciate and accept all that... was given. It is such a special and unique space. The blessings offered by Anandi involve wisdom and persepective, healing meditations and activities that allow you heal so deeply and profoundly. One of the things I love about these retreats is how the healing flows to those around me. This is my beautiful cat Persues. He has changed so much since starting my peiec journey. He has really come to life, last night for one of the first times I can remember he started playing with my shoes and toys, so much playfulness in the old boy! Today is he full of cuddles and affection. I am looking forward to see how much has shifted and the changes that are to come for myself.

08.01.2022 Beautiful Diamond left today for a few weeks training with Jess from Equine Focus. Its like sending your kids to camp, your know its good for them and theyll be ok, but oh golly hell be missed. How quickly they become apart of everything!!... Looking forward to how he goes over the next few weeks. I hope he feels and knows he will be only going for a short stay and will be coming home to his family soon. good luck special boy xo

08.01.2022 Somedays courage is the small things, making plans, taking time, doing the little things that lead to big things!! It doesnt need to be bold and loud and it doesnt need to be seen by anyone else. One of my best friends use to tell on my hardest and darkest days "youve got this".....with those three small words she gave me courage to overcome some of my biggest challenges. Yesterday she gave me some good advice and support, and once again she sparked my courage!!... So if you need to hear this today, like I did yesterday "Youve got this!" I beleive in you!!

08.01.2022 This little horse could teach the world a thing or too about resilience, hope, love and courage. Having an experience she should never have had, she was left with pain, fear and trauma. In two short weeks she has made an incredible recovery and turn around. For a moment she lost her twinkle, and yesterday she was feeling sparkly all over once again as she trotted over for some cuddles!... Releasing life moments and working with peiec on all involved in the incident where Honey was injured has created an immense shift. It allows her to become more peaceful and calm, her physical vessel has healed so well. The gift of peiec is that it isnt a just a skill or a tool, it allows life to be perceived in a different way. Honeys healing has been filled with deep moments of presence, allowing the energy between her herd and human friends to flow. It has allowed for her nervous system to be brought back into aligment and natural flow. It has been amazing to see the shifts. When we work with peiec there is no expectation just an peaceful acceptance of whats been given. Horses and animals seem to find this easier to access than people. For people who are open beautiful things can happen and change can be experienced in a short time too.

07.01.2022 Whats in a name?? The Kindness Project means a lot of different things to me, but the name came from something I use to do with my kids when they were small. We would write and decorate letters, like the one below, and then hide them in parks, shopping centres, leave them on cars in the parking lots, pop them into letter boxes; with a tea bag and small chocolate. ... There were lots of reasons we did it. It started as something to do when we didnt have a lot of money and it brought us a lot of joy. Id get the kids to point out a house and wed stop and theyd excitedly run to the persons letterbox and pop in their letter. It gave the kids an opportunity to learn to write, but one of the loveliest things was for them to learn how to bring sunshine into their own hearts. They knew someone would feel good becuase of them, even though theyd never get to witness it. It made them feel good inside. A few weeks ago on a wintery weekend, they were at their dads place and needed something to do. So they introduced their dads girlfriends daughter to the fun of letter writting!! They wrote some letters and off they went along their street popping them in letterboxes. As they headed home a lady called out to them and asked if theyd put the letter in her letter box, she was smiling and said it was so special to recieve and had just made her day!!! Something so simple as a little kindness can have a huge impact in someone elses day. I beleive at the base of healing self is being held in the Kindness of another, kindness comes from compassion and empathy. I hope to always ensure kindness is the base of e erything each time I sit and connect with a client. We called our letter writting the Kindness project, it seemed the perfect name for my business too.

06.01.2022 Life moments can pop up anywhere!! Yesterday I got busy cleaning my house. I was using a chemical to clean my shower screens, as I used it even though I had gloves on I had a thought that I hope it doesnt make me feel crappy later with the fumes. (Yep good old intuition right) Anyway I got stuck in and forgot all about it, as I got to the last bit of cleaning I had to vacuum and wash my kitchen and laundry floors. Bang out of nowhere complete exhaustion kicked in. It was s...Continue reading

06.01.2022 "Youve grown because youre letting out what you feel, and youre expressing yourself differently now. Youre making a difference and thats a goddam miracle, youre finally finding comfort in your own skin, and thats what Ive been trying to tell you - teach you, you know? To be yourself in a sea full of people, to speak your truth when youre afraid and to find your light when surrounded by darkness. Youve grown, my friend, and watching you bloom is one of most beautiful things in the world." ~ r.m. drake My beautiful magical unicorn Mellie, how far you have come. You are a precious gift in my life!

06.01.2022 Saturday I will be co-facillitating, with yoga and trauma focused movement expert Vicki Francs, The Kindness Projects first one day retreat: Welcome to Spring! Each person joining us will recieve their own personalised journal. I have just spent the past few days designing and creating each persons journal. I am so excited to open our gates for the day to share this unique and powerful day of healing and rejuvenation....

05.01.2022 I work with many people who have expereinced a lack of support while going through big life experiences. I have been a full time carer for a sick child, been through life threatening medical trauma, and Ive been through the process of a marriage separation and divorce. It was the small things, that meant the most. Unfortunately spending many days in hospital it was a regular process of containing my emotions so I could support my daughter, and son who was at home or in a f...riends care. The beautiful gestures of a friend rocking up with hot flat white, (because hospital coffee, uuurrrghhhh). Where the little things that kept me going. I work with many people who have experienced big long term traumas as well as multiple painful traumas it seems so many have lacked support and care. From sexual assault during childhood or marriage/relationships, domestic violence being physical/emotional, medical conditions, illness, ongoing pain, relationship breakdowns/divorce and the list goes on. When theyve bravely reached out to those close to them the support hasnt come. In fact many people have had those close to them turn their back on them, not believe them or go so far as to walk away. For many reasons I guess, maybe our experiences have triggered the other persons own life moments? Supporting others, holding space knowing what to say isnt always easy. It is also a skill that is learnt, if our parents didnt know how to support us, themselves or others then how do we know how? Empathy, compassion, staying present and listening to someone. Allow the person to reveal their pain and just be there in the moment for them. Be honest, you can admit your not sure you can understand or comprehend their experience, but offer your willingness to be there for them. If a person expresses they are suffering emotional instability and it is too much for you, you can find a lot of online resources and helplines to direct them too. Maybe touch base and express concerns with their family members so they can be supported. For people going through a rough patch a little bit of nuture is amazing, take them for a coffee, or take one to them!! Send a message and "check in" to see how they are doing, be ok with the answer that might come back. Maybe drop around a family meal, take a mums kids out for the day to let her rest. Or simply ask them what they need and truly mean it!! Be the friend who walks in when others walk out!

05.01.2022 If he hides behind the tree and doesnt look at you, Im pretty sure he thinks we cant see him either!!!

04.01.2022 You know the day will special when it starts out like this!! Come to heal, let the history of the horse, their infinite wisdom, the power of the herd guide you home. Today we offer our hearts, our intuitive gifts and our support to nuture those attending our retreat. With embodied movement, meditation with the beauty of peiec and journalling guided by horse, we welcome the journay of today.... Looking forward to all that unfolds in this sacred space.

04.01.2022 Beautiful reunion... when your friend has been away for a couple of weeks, it is so exciting to have them come home. Just so lovely to see!! Diamond came home from a 2weeks training with Equine Focus. The herd was extremely excited to see him as he was them. What lovely interactions they all had when he rejoined them. Mellie was super excited to have her bestie back!!

04.01.2022 Welcome to spring, the sun is shining the birds are singing.... oh hang on it looks like yesterday when it was still winter! Had to hold my hair on today while feeding the horses!! Doesnt really matter what the weather is doing the view through the valley is always spectacular. Have a wonderful week!

03.01.2022 "The earth has music for those who listen" ~ Shakespeare Today Mother Nature was playing a winter tune on a spring day. The horses were shivering in the wind and the rain, sharing space to warm each other up. ... Extra feed to warm them up this morning, under their feet small rivers flowed over the ground. It is amazing how the view changes so quickly in 24 hrs. Well, at least the rain today has kept the flies at bay. Enjoy the beauty of this lovely spring day.

02.01.2022 Yugen!! What a perfect word to describe the indescribable. The more I heal and release the more connected to everything I become, and the less I need to understand the connection. I use to be a why person, wanting to have a deeper understanding and knowledge. So much of that has shifted as I have gained a deeper insight into the power of presence and being. There is lightness and freedom from living in the intellectually powered mind and self. Gentleness, quietness and ease... has filled the space left behind. As we release the life moments which hold us bound we are able to open and deepen our connection to all that is around us.

02.01.2022 "Family" isnt defined only by last names or by blood; its defined by commitment and by love. It means showing up when they need it the most. It means having each others backs. It means choosing to love each other even on those days when you struggle to like each other. It means not giving up on each other. ~ Dave Willis we are family!
