 Spring is here, along with the usual tease of warm, sunny weather, followed by hail, sleet, wind and rain! I love Spring! New lambs jumping around in the fields, new calves walking closely beside their mums, buds ready to burst open and a sense that we have the opportunity to celebrate new beginnings once more. Before anyone says anything, I do think it's possible to celebrate new beginnings at any time of the year, but Spring seems to help me celebrate it more.
There have been very positive changes in my personal AND professional life in recent months. Firstly, I have moved house to live with my partner in life. That in itself deserves a blog! I didn't think I would ever meet someone again that I would feel I could make that commitment to, but I hope that by sharing this, it brings hope to anyone who thinks it might never happen. This relationship is a completely different experience. I do think everything I have learned up to this point in my life has helped and continues to help me navigate the last couple of years, as we have built our relationship. Living on a family farm is something I have embraced wholeheartedly and I look forward to what the future will bring. I currently don't have space to work from the farm (but watch this space!) so I am working out of two new venues; Therapy Barn, Thainstone Business Centre, Inverurie and The Haven, 3 Market Square, Stonehaven, in addition to working online and making home/stable vsits to my four legged clients. New opportunities are coming my way and that includes creating retreats and events with my two dear friends and colleagues, Judith Stephen - Transormational Coach and GaWell Holistic Therapies - Gaelle Conjaud. After a successful Women's Wellness Weekend at Knockburn Sports Loch in early March, we have booked the first weekend in March, at the same venue for next year! We are also currently planning a weekend retreat in September at a stunning venue near Edzell. AND, I am also looking forward to collaborating with other equine focussed practitioners to offer workshops across the North East of Scotland, as well as the Reiki and EMMETT 4 Horses workshops and courses I offer across Scotland. Personally, I am currently working with my Reiki Master, always learning more and deepening my connection with all beings. I have also just signed up with Suz McDonald - Holistic Wellbeing Coach to delve deeper on a personal level. It's so important to continue to do 'The Work', especially when we work with others on an energetic level. Yes, lots of new beginnings and much growth, both personally and professionally. It's taken a few years and a global pandemic but life is coming together and creating something pretty amazing! PS The alpacas have recently arrived at the farm. I will share more of their journey and the farm's plans for the future, because it very much aligns with my work as Gillian Watt - Wellbeing/Animal Practitioner.
