The Mindful Alchemists

And there’ll be more next time, as I figured out how much dough I actually need for each mould 😂

I had a little thought while food shopping today, about creating more opportunities to slow down and be present.

I was about to add the instant coffee into my trolley when I realised I hadn’t used my percolator in a while. Lately, I’ve just been microwaving my oat milk and using instant coffee for a quick morning brew.

But I remembered how different it feels when I grind the beans, heat the milk on the stove, and brew my coffee in a pot. It turns into a moment of reflection and intention - a small ritual that brings purpose to my morning. It almost feels like I’m brewing a little potion which feels like magic itself.

So instead of going for convenience, I chose the coffee beans - the version that felt like intention and calm. Yes, it does take a bit longer, but it feels far more meaningful.

Good afternoon girlies!!

It’s some of you may know that I’m very pregnant (im almost at 35 weeks, time is flying), and I’ve moved into my new house a month ago so there’s a lot going on this end!

As usual I’ve seen the pattern of me falling into the perfectionist mindset and it’s so far from how I feel - as I’m a big advocate for showing up messy rather than not at all, that’s the real stuff that I know I appreciate from others as it makes me feel less alone sometimes.

With that being said I’ve been dealing with the slow shift from maiden to mother, and all the complexities that come tied with identity and my body and new role I’m growing into and it’s been a bit difficult.

However Mindfulness Alchemy at is deepest core value is the foundation of building a community for women,…

We’ve been so lucky with the sunshine recently! I hope you’ve all had a lush bank hol + enjoyed the sun!

I’ve been away in Buxton the past few days and it’s been so chill - a nice calm before the storm of moving house next weekend (finally 😭).

What did you lot get up to? 🍹🌸
