🌺 44 Things of Wellness | A little update 🌺

I wanted to jump on and give you a little update with my 44 Things of Wellness before September comes to an end tomorrow.

Wallaby Creek Music Festival was honestly such an amazing experience. A huge shout-out to everyone who put the weekend together. What a beautiful celebration of music, community and connection. 🦋🎶

I had hoped to continue my Healing Looks Good On You interviews while I was there, but sometimes mum life and business don’t quite line up the way we plan.

Once I’m feeling better, I’d love to share some of the highlights from our weekend at the Wallaby Creek Music Festival. There were so many beautiful moments, and I’m looking forward to reflecting on and sharing them with you. 🌺

So, no interviews this time… but something really special happened anyway.

I spent the weekend listening to the musicians speak about music, healing, empowerment and connection, and it honestly confirmed for me that I’m moving in the right direction. Sometimes the signs aren’t in the plans we make, but in the things we hear, feel and experience along the way. 🦅🦋

Sharing that weekend with my daughter is something I know we’ll both remember for a very long time. ❤️

And then I came home… and the flu hit me like a freight train. 🤒😂

I’m still very unwell, the car is still unpacked, and somewhere in there is my 44 Things of Wellness bingo card… assuming I can find it! 😂

I think we’ve ticked off quite a few things this month, and I’ll have to do a proper count once I’m functioning again.

As for the giveaways, there wasn’t enough engagement for the original draw, but I still wanted to honour the spirit of the giveaway. So I’ve gifted two 90-minute Reiki sessions to two beautiful people. 💚

Thank you to everyone who joined me for 44 Things of Wellness this month, whether you participated, followed along, tried something new, got out in nature, connected with someone, rested, laughed, danced, ate something nourishing or simply gave yourself a little more kindness.

Tomorrow is the final day of September, so I’ll wrap it all up when I’m back on my feet.

For now, I’m off for some Panadol, plenty of rest and hopefully a little healing of my own. 🌺

Healing isn’t always productive. Sometimes healing looks like stopping, resting and letting your body do what it needs to do.

See you on the other side of this flu! 🫶🏽🌺

🧠💛 This is such an important conversation.

I really loved the way Etrulia Troy Lee explains emotional intelligence in this video. She makes it so easy to understand why learning about our emotions matters, not just as adults, but from a young age.

Understanding what we feel, where those feelings come from, how we respond to them, and how our behaviour can affect others is such an important part of growing.

As parents, we have an opportunity to teach our children that having emotions is okay, but learning how to navigate them and take accountability for our actions matters too.

The more we understand ourselves, the more awareness we can bring into our relationships, our parenting and our communities.

Education. Emotional awareness. Accountability. Connection. 🦋🫶🏽

Too good not to share.
Have a great Wednesday🌺

44 Things of Wellness | Today’s little adventure

Today’s bingo card got a few ticks!

A little nature hit at Emerald Creek Falls, just outside Mareeba, some movement and physical self-care, and the perfect place to share some exciting news about the next chapter of Rosies Haven.

✨ HEALING LOOKS GOOD ON YOU ✨

I’m taking Rosies Haven out into the community, travelling to different places and events and having conversations with some of the amazing people I meet along the way.

Real people. Real stories. The highs, the lows and everything in between.

Because healing is made up of layers, and it looks different for all of us. Sometimes hearing someone else’s story can give us hope, inspire us, or simply remind us that we’re not alone.

The aim is to create conversations around breaking down the stigmas surrounding mental health, self-care, connection, chasing goals, resilience and the different ways people navigate life, while celebrating the incredible things happening in our communities.

There are so many layers to healing, happiness and living life to the fullest: music, culture, food, art, different healing modalities, religion, sport, business, dancing, travel, education, making dreams a reality… you name it! ✨

And I’m SO excited to kick this off next weekend at Wallaby Creek Music Festival! 🎶🦋

Music can be such a powerful part of healing, connection and self-expression.

So, I have a question for you…

🎶 What does music mean to you? 🎶

If you see me there, please come and say hello. I’d love a yarn! 🫶🏽

I’ll still be facilitating Reiki at Couch Cancer Hub, Pavilion 2, and continuing my monthly Cooktown trips, weather permitting. I’ll keep all updates here on Facebook.

There’s more to come for Rosies Haven as we step into October, but for now…

I’m soaking up this beautiful country, enjoying the adventure and feeling pretty excited about what’s ahead. Let there be love, light and healing Rosie
