change starts now...



Welcome back, lovely readers,


I’m back with my weekly blog post. I’m so excited to dive into this one. I am sharing with you some of the practices that I am incorporating into my life again. Yes, you read right, again.


Maybe some of you remember this from a few years ago or maybe not, but I was incredibly into spirituality heavily in my 20s. In my early 20s, I experienced a very intense spiritual awakening that put me on the path to learning and learning from mentors that were currently in my life at the time. I did experience some incredibly scary experiences though. Some that I will showcase more in my upcoming book. The experiences made me want to close the door to spirituality. It felt too ‘scary’ to be connected to spirit and I was not ready to face the good and the bad side of spirituality. So I turned to partying to I suppose, ‘switch off’ so I didn’t have to experience that all again. This also was a time that I decided to go vegan. I came across veganism on youtube actually, which led me to a spiral of seeking information about the animals, and the world. I really didn’t realise where meat came from beyond that point. I felt silly for not knowing and felt the biggest desire to not consume animal products anymore. I was so happy to be a vegan. I felt like it was part of who I was morally, and ethically. I was vegan for 3-4 years.




This leads me to that second spiritual awakening that had happened to me that you might have remembered me talking about in last week’s blog. This spiritual awakening was soul-shaking. I truly felt like I was seeing the world through a different lens. All my ‘stuff and crap’ came up and I was incredibly inspired to work on myself. In hindsight, the level of ‘change’ that I was trying to do could have been considered a little too much or maybe could of been a sign of determination for growth. I’m not sure, but all I do know is that that experience changed me. I never had experienced such an intense and deep awakening over my past relationships, my purpose, and my childhood as I did through that experience. Even though I learned the most about myself during that time, I was still working through a lot of karmic situations to keep up-leveling in my soul’s development. This was a time I had to leave being vegan. I was incredibly sick and was told I had a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. I thought that being vegan was the reason I was sick and I had to make one of the hardest decisions of my life to end being vegan.




Of course, so much has happened in the timeframe of my second awakening to now. This current awakening or ‘remembering’ that I’m going through doesn’t necessarily feel like ‘my world is about to forever change,’ but definitely remembering who I am, what I am here to do, and potentially clearer realisations about my 20s. When meeting my beautiful partner Nathan 2.5 years ago, I was shown a lot about myself. It was like a mirror was presented to me about the patterns that I was in. My relationship anxieties, phobias, looking to spirituality for all the answers, and the intense spiritual rituals; it was shown that I needed to have a break from doing anything spiritual so I could be present and be in the moment in my relationship. I needed to work on building a secure attachment in my relationship so everything else could feel balanced and that I wouldn’t be experiencing so much anxiety and doubt. I will do future blogs around my relationship anxiety etc later on.

So I took a year and a half off doing anything spiritual and I must admit, it was truly freeing. But spirit has a funny way of working itself into your life when it’s the right time, and that moment is now. So this brings me to the routines that I am doing now that are working for me right now.


+ I’m back to being vegan. I feel like this was totally needed to be honest. I am a die-hard vegan inside my heart. My empathy gets a lot sometimes, and I just know this is the right thing for me to do. My body feels healed and I can consume all the intolerances that I once couldn’t eat, so I’m happy about that.


+ I’m doing my daily meditations. This goes for about 10-30 minutes. I connect to my spirit team, asking for the council of light to guide me the way and I am also shown visions and told messages that are needed for that moment.


+ Tarot cards are something I’m doing again. Normally I would get really overwhelmed with the messages and now I just confidently trust my intuition to receive what message needed to receive on that day.



+ I'm FINALLY doing a yoga teacher training course. This has been something I’ve wanted to do for over 6 years now but it just wasn’t the right time. I’m so excited to start this journey and incorporate this into my life as soon as I am qualified.

+ Writing a book was also shown to me as well which has been such a wonderful realisation of where my purpose can go for me. This is going to be channeled and spoken through spirit so I am so excited to birth this into the world.





In summary, I'm excited to be re-engaging with spirituality and incorporating these practices into my life in a more balanced way. Thank you for reading and I hope that some of these practices may resonate with you as well.


Until next time,

Vee xx
