Heartspace

Heartspace Heartspace is a page where I share what moves me in daily life. I have a wide varity of interests: y I am an essential oil educator.

Heartspace Wellness Solutions has been created by Silke Whittaker, a yoga teacher, sound healer, reiki master, essential oil educator, artist, mama, wife and explorer of the inside and outside world. I used to own a yoga studio in Hastings, New Zealand and loved to share the practice of yoga, sound healing and aromatherapy on a regular basis with my clients. After a sabbatical with my family overs

eas for 2 years I currently offer one off yoga & sound healing group sessions around Hawke's Bay when time allows. I also love working one on one with clients either for sound healing & reiki sessions or to customise a yoga practice just for you. I am passionate about using doTerra essential oils and love to teach how they can be used to improve your health and home care with these pure gifts from mother nature. doTERRA's sourcing practices and quality are impeccable, which is why I have been working with them for around 6 years now. I am happy to customise one on one sessions, group sessions or make custom blends for clients. You can learn more about Heartspace Yoga & Heartspace Essentials on heartspace.nz. If you have any questions you can contact me on [email protected]. I am looking forward to connecting with you.

I am happy because our son is coming back home to visit for a month.

For my private clients this means a bit of a pause, because the healing room is being transformed back into our sons room for 4 weeks.

I will be available again for 1:1 yoga, reiki, soundhealing & brainspotting from 11th July.

Will pop available timeslots up on the website soon.

I love the scent of these flowers so much. Usually spring flowers, but here they are delighting us with bright colours and intoxicating scent at the beginning of winter.

A few weeks ago a friend of mine passed away and we were asked to bring flowers to line the isles for the funeral. There was nothing to be found in my garden, so I went for a walk by the river to see if I could forage anything. I know there are stray bulbs blooming from previous years. With my senses attuned to finding flowers I actually found more clusters that I hadn't noticed before and was able to take good bunch to say good bye.

I think the bulbs might have found a new home in the wild after a flood in the oddest places. It brings me so much joy seeing them every day. I was just wondering which garden they might have been uplifted from.

I am so grateful for my sense of smell. Have you noticed how memories are tied to smells? What are your most favorite smell memories?

Haven't done a full moon cleansing in a while. Yesterday my bowls got a clean with lemon juice and water and a polish this morning.

And all the crystals around the house got a bath in ocean water under the fullmoon and are drying off in the sun now after a rinse in fresh water.

This has been on my to do list for ages, but the stars and energylevels never aligned.

Of course my assistant George is always by my side checking if I am doing it all ok.

Yay to an extra day off.

Today I took my Tibetan Singing Bowls to my workshop with the Deaf Community.

That might seem an odd thing to do as some people have no hearing at all and others can a bit with hearing aids.

I wasn't sure what the experience was going to be for someone who can't hear at all or not very well, but I know that I can make sound vibration visible by putting water in the bowl and that they would be able to feel the vibration.

Participants loved feeling the vibration in their hands and on their bellies, but my favorite moment was when someone who could not hear from birth really loved the bowl on their head to feel the sound vibration. It was a magic and joyful moment that brought me to tears.

Thinking about how much peace and enjoyment these bowls have brought to so many makes me so happy. That they have been made by hand by craftsman in Nepal, that I am lucky enough to play them and that they will live on after I am gone makes me happy.

So grateful to have found a way to express myself through sound in a way that comes with ease.
