Get on and Shine with Holly Honeychurch
Bought a cheese yesterday that I nickname ‘Le Stinky’, a French Camembert. We both have to agree that it’s time to buy it. We both have to be in the mood. Because if we’re not, the idea of its aroma wafting its way out the fridge, can bring tears to eyes. That’s why we only have it once a year.
Salve Regina. Hail Holy Mother! Here’s a magical prayer and a wonderful, sacred slideshow. Fill yourself up with beautiful, holy images and whispered, loving words. 💙
Happy Saturday! I love recording my harp practises because I’m relaxed, exploratory and less tense. Wrong notes don’t matter, they’re encouraged. In fact, as new melodies spring out of accidental notes the looser, more intrigued I become. Here’s a little practise from tonight. I’m experimenting with strong, cosmic reverb (which I usually leave for my Cosmic Harp tracks) - it has super duper spacey resonance. Most of the time I’m just trying to tame this reverb because often it gets out of control so I have to temper my playing and also the decay. I like this practise sound, I’m going with it for my live session tomorrow.
If you want to enjoy some spacey seashore harp music live, I’m playing Sunday 21st May 5pm BST on Insight Timer- here’s the link.

Finding this lil tiger in the jungle fills me with joy. I always bring my trusty bamboo stick cat toy just in case. She can never resist.
Sunniest day of the year today. I was down at my community garden planting up the mangetout troughs. A job well done I’d say. And someone even brought me a cold can of pop to drink. A wonderful bonus on a hot day and so appreciated.
Super lovely little walk at dusk with all the insect fairies dancing in the new warmth. My favourite time of day I think.
🎉 I’m excited to release a new cosmic track. I’ve been experimenting with sound by using two complementary harp recordings multiple times, at various tempos with lots of different sound effects. Ten morphing layers of space music. Yum! Lots going on and somehow it feels deeply relaxing. I love it.
A wee joyful meditation. I am brimming with energy and overflowing with joy.
An excerpt from a new video release full of strengthening prayers of protection and peace contemplating and calling on the power of Archangel Michael. The heavenly images go well with such beautiful prayers and the ambient, celestial music is a joy.
I recorded this 5 years ago when I was a cat sitter. This is sweet Fennel. I love playing harp to cattos! 🎶
Life can present so much suffering. It’s working out how to smile through the tears. That’s where the beauty lies.
Here are some prayers from the Saint Michael Novena published by W.H. Litho. They are strengthening prayers of protection and peace calling on the mystical power of Archangel Michael. Use these prayers to help your situation. Call on Saint Michael to guide your way home.
Happy Monday! This is the video for my glorious Spring Resurrection release on Bandcamp. 40 mins of soothing, uplifting harp with magical birdsong. Yum. Enjoy your week. May it be full of warm moments.
A beautiful friend gave me this glass swan paper weight recently. It’s now on my altar. It was her mum’s, who recently passed away. She thought Winifred would want me to have it. I have an affinity with swans after my magical harp-swan experience. Also, after my dad died, I was meditating at his altar and all of a sudden there was a song in my head about a swan. He was telling me he’d turned into a swan. The words were so beautiful, I’ll record them some time. I love swans, they’re so regal and enchanting.
I really do love my forest of plants and all their colours. They hungrily lap up the sun with it being triple glazed. I grew the Coleus from seed. I’m a proud plant mama.
