I had forgotten how beautiful the southern coast is in England. Just back from a restorative week in the South Hams area of Devon.The area is full of wonderful coastal and woodland walks which allowed me to get in touch with nature away from the hustle and bustle of London.2 weeks before I went I manifested the kind of holiday week I wanted- A lovely secluded cottage but not too far from a small town. ( Some would say difficult to find in July at short notice- there was not much availability but it popped up on the old Internet and Thyme Cottage was just lovely). A place near to lovely walks where I could empty the mind was essential – there are loads of beautiful walks near estuaries,virtually deserted beaches and woodlands in south Hams- an area I knew nothing about.

Some nice quiet places to sit and read and a bit of historical interest to engage me when I got bored of wandering aimlessly were on the wish list- The area is full of wonderful National Trust properties with lovely gardens- Coleton Fishacre ( Built buy the D’Oyly Carte family) and Greenway ( Agatha Christie’s place) to name just 2 worth a visit.Good food and in particular fresh fish to feed the body was essential- how could I fail in that being near to the sea?- some great catch of the day fish to be had in these parts ( shame about the Devon ice cream and clotted cream which just begged to be eaten).

Many of the places we visited were under restoration, were conservation areas or had recently been restored. Strange that since that is what I was looking for in this short week – a restorative rest for me where I could conserve some energy, get some great sleep and reflect a bit.But then- I have been reading all those books on manifestation and practising the ultimate belief that I can attract what I want towards me haven’t I . I just KNOW that when I put an order into the universe it delivers. Now isn’t that nice.

See you next week.
