May 2025

May 2025
“May, the month of possibilities and the sweet beginnings of summer.”
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, the verb “may” is used to express possibility. A message that ties in so well with the energy of the season, as nature awakens and flourishes. The Full Moon in May, often associated with blooming flowers, certainly brings to mind the potential and possibility within each of us to expand and flourish, just like nature itself.World Meditation Day on May 21st offers a wonderful opportunity for us to slow down, pause and reflect, allowing for introspection and a deeper connection within. The Metta Prayer, which has its roots in ancient Buddhist teachings and practices, with its focus on loving-kindness and the well-being of all, which includes oneself, is a powerful practice for nurturing compassion and awareness. May all beings be peaceful.
May all beings be happy.
May all beings be safe.
May all beings awaken to the light of their true nature.
May all beings be free.
Maybe, May will be full of possibilities, and will offer us a reminder that this month holds the potential for growth, just as nature so beautifully shows us. How do you plan to embrace the possibilities of May?
What a Soundful April. SO much gratitude to everyone who joined regular sessions, some beautiful collaborations and nurturing retreats.  The first powerful, joy filled Drum Dreaming Women’s Drumming Circle, (now monthly from June) back at Deer Wood for the first Full Moon Sounds in the Woods (monthly till September) it was magical, plus still to come, end-of-month events, plus the new Cocoon in Sound on 30th.
It has been 
an absolute joy to facilitate sound journeys, to meet and share with many beautiful souls.  Thank you x
Excited to see how May unfolds, with some new offerings, Sound & Flowers and collaborations, Beltane celebrations and retreat bookings.  

To honour everyone who attends and to give something back to our beautiful earth, I plant trees, through www.Ecologi.com  🌳 so thank you.
