My Egyptian Sekhem Initiation

Guest Blogger — Fri, 24 Nov 2017 02:07:21 +0000

When I went round to see Annie the other evening, I thought we’d be giving each other an Indian Head Massage – our usual Friday night energy swap. Little did I know I would come out initiated in the Egyptian art of Sekhem! I had a Sekhem treatment with Annie about a year ago, and it’s my favourite out of all the therapies I’ve had at Heaven Scent Bliss. The treatment itself is a bit like Reiki…

Experiencing Sea Shell Healing

Guest Blogger — Tue, 20 Jun 2017 01:40:44 +0000

Like many of my other treatments at Heaven Scent Bliss, my seashell healing session starts with Annie asking me to set my intentions. In the last week my brain has been processing lots of hurt and anger, and I am emotionally wrung out. I’d like my whirling mind to be calm and peaceful once more – and this is what I ask for. Annie brings out two baskets full of shells. They are beautiful and…

A Sensitive Soul

Guest Blogger — Tue, 20 Jun 2017 01:17:18 +0000

I’m cooking bacon and eggs for my lunch, and as the comforting aroma fills the kitchen, it seems more like a Sunday morning than a Wednesday afternoon. I’d normally grab a sandwich or have a salad at this time on a working day, so why the bacon and eggs? If I say I’ve just come back from a kinesiology session with Annie Day at Heaven Scent Bliss, you might still wonder at my sudden desire for this…

Havening with Annie

Guest Blogger — Mon, 05 Jun 2017 23:16:04 +0000

I have an important event coming up. It’s a day on which I need to feel confident, have my wits about me and most definitely NOT let my emotions take over. I go to see Annie at Heaven Scent Bliss. She’s promised me that a havening treatment will sort me out and I’m interested to know what’s involved and how it will help. Annie greets me at the gate, as bubbly as ever and with the usual welcome…

My Hopi Ear Candling Experience

Guest Blogger — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 23:32:27 +0000

I used to know someone who swore by ear candles as a relaxation therapy. I couldn’t understand it at the time. I mean, why would you want to stick a lighted candle in your ear? Surely wax drips on your face? It turns out, they’re not really candles at all, but tubes made out of beeswax, honey extract, herbs (sage, St. John’s wort and chamomile, if you’re interested) and pure essential oils.

Egyptian Sekhem: My Ultimate Mindfulness Experience

Guest Blogger — Wed, 16 Nov 2016 02:30:27 +0000

I struggle with mindfulness. I’ve got the meditation apps and I’ve tried yoga, but I find it difficult to completely empty my mind. I start off with all good intentions and even do the deep breathing, but before I know it, I’m working through a knotty problem at work or wondering what to buy for tea. At the moment, my mind is especially busy with an imminent house move and a new business.

Crystal Healing with Annie

Guest Blogger — Tue, 13 Sep 2016 22:45:59 +0000

It’s true to say I’ve been a little frazzled recently, so a crystal therapy session with Annie at Heaven Scent Bliss sounds very appealing. Crystal therapy is an ancient healing system, which treats the body and mind with the precise placement of crystals on and around the body. Since this holistic treatment is concerned with physical, spiritual and emotional well-being, it is just the thing to…

An Angelic Afternoon

Guest Blogger — Wed, 06 Jan 2016 15:50:50 +0000

An Angelic Afternoon By Rachel Robb I’ve always liked the idea that we might have a guardian angel hovering over us, ready to pull us out of the path of a speeding car, or to guide our decision-making by whispering in our ear: “Go for the sticky bun…someone’s sneezed on the carrot cake” – that type of thing. How comforting to think that someone is looking out for us. So I am more than a little…

Time Out

Guest Blogger — Wed, 14 Jan 2015 22:16:06 +0000

When I arrive at Heaven Scent Bliss for my ‘Time Out’ Aromatherapy Massage, the back door is wide open, and no amount of knocking brings any sign of life. I return to my car to give Annie a ring. Maybe I just can’t make her hear me. At that moment, Annie’s Vauxhall Corsa pulls into the drive. She doesn’t see me and bustles down the path and into the house before I can attract her attention.

Bring It On!

Guest Blogger — Wed, 26 Nov 2014 01:56:05 +0000

When Annie explained that Health Kinesiology improves well-being by muscle testing, I thought I’d be lifting weights; a scary thought for someone who struggles to lift a full kettle! But I needn’t have worried, because, to my relief, the muscle testing has nothing to do with strength at all. The Heaven Scent Bliss treatment room is upstairs in Annie’s home. With stars on the ceiling and a…
