Yurtlife has begun!

 Earlier this year, I took time for some selfcare and self development.  When you support others, it is even more important to look after yourself.  It's been a long time since I invested properly in myself and I am so glad I did. Fast forward about 6 months, so much of what I dreamed of and hoped for has come to fruitition. It didn't happen by sitting and waiting, it took action, self-belief and trust that it would all come together. 

I have dreamed about having a yurt for nearly 20 years.  I have talked about 'yurt envy' for a long time!!  I was introduced to a yurt when I first became part of Wo'Moon Circle, very nearly 20 years ago (our 20 year celebration is next year!) and since setting up my wellbeing business, I have hoped to create a special space for clients to come, to feel nurtured, supported and be surrounded by nature.  Up until a few months ago, I could only see the reasons why I couldn't have a yurt but my mindset changed and here we are!

It has been a fascinating journey, planning, then helping to put the yurt up with Paul Spencer, from Highland Yurts.  Paul went to Mongolia in 2007 to learn how to build yurts, or gers, as they are known over there.  He has built all the yurts that I know of in the North East of Scotland and has clients across the UK. He is an extremely skilled craftsman and shared the history and traditions of yurts with us, as he worked. 

The Yurt has a wood burning stove, a car park, is accessible and I am delighted to say that I will be welcoming clients to 'The Yurt at Logie Newton Farm' from October 2024 onwards.  I will continue to work from the Therapy Barn, Thainstone Business Centre, Inverurie once a month but the bulk of my online and in person appointments will be at The Yurt.  I look forward to seeing you there!
