Karma Coach Newsletter | December 2019
We're under the influence of Sagittarius right now and that's an energy that likes to dream big. It's the energy of innovators, people who are able to imagine the unimaginable like Stephen Spielberg and Walt Disney.

You may see very little changing in your life on the outside or it may seem chaotic, but deep inside something is hatching, new horizons are beckoning and this is the perfect time to allow a new vision of your life to gradually emerge. We're in the process of drawing back the bow and letting go of the past before we let our arrows fly.

In keeping with the feeling of a fresh start the newsletter is now a more mobile-friendly version. Let me know what you think.

Below you'll find opportunities to learn, change, reflect and grow. I hope you'll take advantage of them.

Wishing you innovation

Holiday Dates: I will not be able to fullful essence orders between Tuesday Dec 17 and Jan 2 so if you'd like an essence in a bottle or as part of an attunement or guidance, please order by Dec 16 if you need it before Jan 2.

Quick Reminders
New Service - Personal message
Would you like to be clear about the key challenge that you're grappling with right now? I've recently felt prompted to offer a service that will answer exactly that question: a single essence message, a transmission and an affirmation.

Many of us feel overwhelmed at this time of year and a short, simple but profound message might be just what you need to course-correct. Rather than look at the whole staircase, this offering just takes you by the hand and helps you take the next step with confidence.

Unconditional Love - Crystal Herbs essence offer
The things which trouble us most, such as loneliness, conflict, anxiety and self doubt, all emanate from the heart. When your heart is at peace you can deal with whatever life throws at you, you don't take other people's behaviour and opinions personally because you're clear and centred.

Roses have this gift to give. They form their own system of flower essences that all work on our heart - the great balancing chakra of the body. Simply smelling a rose opens your heart to love and compassion, softening your emotional armour.

This month Crystal Herbs are offering 20% off their rose combination called Unconditional Love. This essence vibration will wash out all that isn't unconditional love from your heart so that you feel the connection, serenity and oneness that comes with a balanced heart centre. Available in 10ml or 20ml.


Unravelling knotty problems
One of the best ways to become aware of how you're really feeling is to create a Bach remedy blend for yourself. That process will ask you to unravel all those knotty emotions and find clarity about where they're really coming from.

Once you name your feelings you bring them from the darkness into the light - that makes them less powerful and much easier to deal with.

Dr Bach divided the Bach remedies into 7 groups covering 38 mental and emotional states, which makes it a remarkably complete description of the human psyche:

  • Uncertainty
  • Oversensitivity
  • Loneliness
  • Overcare & Concern
  • Fear
  • Despair & Despondency
  • Lack of Interest

I'm struck how each of them has the same issue at its heart - they all arise as a result of disconnection from Source (or your higher self or inner wisdom - however you frame it for yourself).

If you're uncertain, source will always show you the way.

if you're feeling cut off, source lets you know you're never alone because you're part of All That Is.

If you're going through difficult times source will provide comfort and strength.

If you're afraid, source will give you the courage to face your challenges.

If you're depleted from taking on too much responsibility Bach remedies will remind you to plug into the love and healing that comes from source, not from your own reserves.

If you're oversensitive, connecting to source will give you a protective inner glow so that you can confidently maintain your boundaries, speak your truth.and express your needs.

If you're feeling unattached to life, apathetic, exhausted, gloomy or living in the past or in your head, source will bring you back to now because it connects you to your life force, to the reason you chose to be here and the enthusiasm you felt when you made that choice.

Each time I choose a blend I feel better before I've even taken it because the process has given my emotions the attention they deserve. They've been witnessed, acknowledged and accepted and I now have something that will help to balance and soothe them.

Bach Remedy options. You can create a blend:

as part of a Bach remedy consultation or

you can choose your own Bach remedies and have them blended,

If you're pressed for time or you need something to hand for whenever you're triggered, Revival Remedy is the one to reach for.

Non-Violent Communication - Free Online Course
Many of us suffer due to conflict in our relationships at work, at home and within ourselves. It results in anger, resentment, hurt, frustration, judgement and self-sabotage.

I've noticed some of the best communicators and mediators I've met have learned this method called non-violent communication (NVC) but I've only seen it offered in distant places, so I'm pleased to see there's now a free online course to learn it in the comfort of your own home.

With non-violent communication, you'll be able to address problems while honouring and accepting your own needs and those of others. Through this course, you'll learn how to embrace your limitations and connect to the humanity that lies within you so that you can finally give yourself permission to make mistakes and say farewell to your inner critic. This method brings both inner peace and outer harmony.

Limited magnetic Pet Pad offer
50% off insoles 20% off massager & grounding mat
I'm delighted that Nikken has responded to demand and brought in a limited stock of the extremely popular pet pads. 

Pet Pad technologies mimic the balancing power of nature: graded and equally distributed magnets create the stabilising effect of the earth's magnetic field, far infrared in the fibres and ionics which provide the uplifting effect of negative ions normally abundant in the fresh pure air of pine forests or by the sea. 

Fully washable and with a luxurious feel, I always get great feedback from customers about the way these soothe and stabilise their furry friends - so especially helpful for nervous rescue animals. You'll find testimonials in the latest Nikken mailing

In the same mailing there's also 20% off a particular insole style, a magnetic massager and grounding mats. In theory these offers ended on Nov 30, so you'll no longer be able to order them over the phone. However the reduced prices may not be taken off the website until after 4pm on Monday Dec 2, so it's worth clicking the mailing link below if you're interested in a bargain.


Go straight to Pet Pad order page - NB only small size available
