Meet Frankie. My dear friend’s doggo. He’s 100% the bestest boi. He loves playing tug and feels like a lil lamb to the touch. He got joyful zoomies in the back garden earlier and it was the sweetest thing ever. I luvs Frankleberry.

Here are three exquisite prayers from Cardinal A Newman. He was so poetic and graceful with his words.

I found some beautiful harp melodies during my practise session tonight and I’m full of gratitude that I can share them with you now.

Yesterday was the day I sowed tomato seeds in the church garden. It’s great to be back volunteering with kind souls. I’m so elated! Although it was chilly and windy (have you ever tried sowing tomato seeds in the wind? 😜) I really enjoyed it. Yay! 🍅 Roll on sunshine please. ☀️

Happy Friday!! Got a cracker of a cloud this evening 💜

Do you like gardening? I love planting flowers and bulbs. I love propagating seeds (one day I’ll have a little greenhouse 🤞🏽). There’s something about colourful flowers at the base of magical trees that always makes my heart giddy. I think it’s the fairy in me 😄🧚🏼‍♀️✨

In this video, you’ll experience all the life, all the colour, all the sounds of a rainforest and some gentle, whimsical harp wandering around in the background. 💚

Thanks David Clode for this lovely green tree frog cover image. All images for this video were taken from Unsplash, with gratitude. 💙

Happy Mothering Sunday to all the mothers, all the universal mothers, who do kind deeds for others, who nurture, who guide, who clean up after, who console, who support, who sacrifice. You are loved! 💕

A relaxing half hour with harp and beautiful waves. I’ve had great feedback about this piece helping my dear friends find a state of tranquillity and deep sleep. I hope it does the same for you.

This is such a happy hymn. I remember singing it in a ceremony for a dear friend who was giving birth at the time and needed support from the heavens. Her daughter arrived safely that night. Alleluia! Keep on loving dear little stars 💗

Oh yes. Let’s get sunned 🤩 (got a new grabby thing for litter picking and bamboo canes for gardening 😇).

This hymn has been close to my heart for a very long time. I have so many memories of singing it during ceremonies and I will carry on singing and celebrating it forever and always. May Our Dear Holy Mother of Light and Love protect and nourish your heart.

This hymn is by Peter Madden and based on John 14. I used to love singing it at school during assembly. It’s been with me a long time. It’s repeated 10 times because it’s so short and I wanted to celebrate it over and over! After each rendition there are 10 seconds of space to meditate and reflect.

This harp reset uses two chords in the key of F# Minor. Nourishing vibrations and resonance echo out with the harp strings. By focusing on two simple chords you can get out of your mind and flow with soft, enchanting music. Life can be so complicated so reset your mind to simplicity.

Moody magic this afternoon. How lucky I am. Grateful for the ever changing clouds.

A simple recording of a beautiful hymn. I only came across My God Loves Me a year ago and I just love it. Here I’m singing it as a celestial lullaby. It’s not quite the same melody as the original but I went with what my heart was feeling. Lush image by Eberhard-Grossgasteiger, with thanks.

Cardinal Newman lived 1801 - 1890. His prayers and teachings are poetic, full of grace and fervour. Some of the prayers included in this new sacred prayer track are:

A Prayer to the Sacred Heart
A Prayer of Surrender
Prayer for the Light of Truth

May you be healed and nurtured by them. Amen.

Find the courage to live your dreams and do what you really want to do! And do it to help others.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.

Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)

I absolutely love listening to birdsong. Now that signs of spring are here, in the garden, the chorus has ramped up and there are beautiful melodies to be heard everywhere. I’m really enjoying the Dunnock at the moment 💗🎶💗

So grateful to hear these healing sounds. What’s your favourite birdsong?
