Powerful Places

Just this morning, one of those synchronicities that I should have gotten used to, but still catch me by surprise, brought me to a delightful discovery. A friend made a comment on another friends’ photo on Facebook. Something about what she wrote made me take a look, and…. pouf! There it was! A book about Powerful Places in Wales.

I couldn’t believe my eyes. This discovery was so in line with what I was thinking of and the direction I am taking my life in, that I went from anxious to excited in 2 seconds. No, wait, scram that, it only took half a second. Don’t you just love it when that happens?

 

I was feeling a bit anxious because tomorrow I am off on a long trip, resuming my travels after three years of staying put.

Wales is a magical place which resonates with my heart a lot, and one that I intend to explore again in more depth.

Finding a book like this was one of those OMG! moments that bring rushes of good energy; another confirmation (we all need those all the time apparently) that I am on the right track.

True, it may be a small thing, but sometimes, small things like these are just what we need in that moment, and they can mean a lot.

 

It was impossible to resist. Even if I was short on time (I still have to pack), I had to find out more.

I discovered that this is a freshly published book, the latest in a series covering other magical places: Scotland, Brittany, Ireland, Catalonia, and even the powerful Camino de Santiago.

The books, researched and written by Elyn Aviva & Gary White, are available for purchase on line at the various Amazon stores, at Barnes & Noble, and also as e-books downloads in the iBooks section of the iTunes store.

For more information on the books and a list of all the Amazon store links + other purchase options  click here to get to the main website.

 

I have downloaded them to my iPad and am looking forward to exploring them on my upcoming trip, but I thought I’d share this discovery with you before leaving.

Below you can see the rest of the books available.

 

 

Have fun exploring!

Good Morning!

This exquisite Classic English kitchen in Southeast London caught my eye as it popped into my inbox a few days ago. 

I have not shared any home design inspiration for some time, for all the same reasons why I had not posted or sent out newsletters for sometime. But make no mistake: my love for interior design and architecture has not dulled one iota. Actually, it is even stronger.

Take a look on the blog (link in profile under Latest Post) for images, story and description of this moody-done-right kitchen.

Wishing you an easy rest of the week!
xoxo
Monica

A lovely tulip from the garden to wish you all an equally lovely Easter Weekend!
May it be filled with lightness, flowers and chocolate eggs.
Love,

Good Morning and Happy Saturday!
I am here to let you know that I have published the recipe for my Lemon Cream Crinkle Cookies.

Easter weekend is coming soon and, just in case you are planning some baking, you can find the recipe at the link in my profile under Latest Post. This way you will have time to bake a test batch for yourself first.

Have fun baking!
Monica

One of my favorite sunsets from my winter in Italy to let you know that I have published a new post on the blog about how the garden and the healing power of nature helped me survive a challenging winter.

You can read it (and view the many photos) on the blog, and you can find the link to the home page in the profile. Or you can comment WINTER in this post and I will message you the link directly.

I hope you will enjoy it and find it helpful and inspiring. That is why I share such personal stories, in the hope they will help or inspire even just one person.

Wishing you a wonderful new week!
Love, Monica

Happy Sunday everyone!

I was finally able to have the time, energy and focus to send out the first newsletter in months. The first of the year, in fact!

You can view it at the link in profile, where you can also find a link to subscribe if you like. Or, if you prefer, comment SPRING below and I’ll message you the link directly. 
I hope you will enjoy it, and that April has been easy on you so far.

🤍🌸🤍
Monica
