Just a quick update on the sound healing session. It was lovely. She mentioned that she uses a tuning fork quite close to the clients ears so I asked to do that at more than usual distance as I have quite sensitive hearing - she did and I could feel the effect but it wasn’t jarring. She is a lovely person holds a safe and warm space. I don’t feel significantly different after it but I know it had an effect as I could feel the heat from her hands, saw lots of colours and images during the session and had a visit from a couple of ancestors. In the quiet bit, after the treatment but before the client ‘comes to’, I shuddered and shook a bit - could feel myself realigning then. She asked afterwards if I had ever done extractions or soul retrieval before - I have - as she was aware there was stuff going on around those sorts of things for me. Apparently my solar plexus was quite powerful but blocked - that area became very cold before she worked on it. She wouldn’t take payment as she is training so I energy exchanged with her and gave her Kaji which she loved. 😊
I am under strict instructions to take it easy for the rest of the day! Gardening is allowed but only pottering! 😂😂😉
About to get into scruffs and do some pottering …. 😊

Mr KK headed off to a local rummage sale this morning, reappearing at lunchtime with yet another tin helmet 🙄😂😂, a load of small vehicle manuals of various types, including what we think might be a sleeper - hard back book from 1919 all about the birth and early development phases of tanks. He is literally glued to it atm …. 😉😊❤️
I’ve had a lovely session in the garden this afternoon - finished the dreadful veggie bed I started yesterday and weeded the gravel section in front of the DIY shed as the grass was literally growing under the door, into the shed! 😂 Mr KK very pleased 😊❤️
I stopped at one point, sat on my kneeler and just listened for five minutes to the birds who were singing their heads off all around me - just lovely 🤩
The view from today’s sit-spot, towards the top of the garden 😊
