A Classic English Tea Room Set in Beautiful Heritage Surroundings


The Journey So Far

Hi, I'm Natalie. Many of you know me as the owner of The Quirky Teapot. You may have visited and enjoyed the warmth and peaceful vibe of the tearoom and it means so much every time someone compliments me on the feeling and ambiance of the space, it's something I've intentionally worked on.
Behind the scenes of the tearoom I've always found my greatest peace in nature. Since living here on the farm, I have grounded myself even deeper into that connection, especially with the ancient woodlands and the special trees, land and animals. It's truly a special place. I'm not saying it to brag, I'm saying it because I want to share that magic with you.
Holistic health isn't new to me, being more open about it is. Whilst those closest to me know that's very much who I am, it's not something I share with everyone and for all of us, our inner world is private, but it's important to share our truths, especially the ones that help create genuine, positive connection. It's the people that speak their truth that help inspire me to speak mine, and to do this work. So here I am speaking mine to encourage and inspire you to speak yours.
Being a HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) and empath I know I feel the world around me in a deeper way to many. It's been a curse and a blessing, but I do believe it helps me with this calling. Like all of us, what ever your beliefs, our self awareness and self mastery deepens with age, maybe naturally, maybe through difficult life events. The more we lean into taking responsibility of who we are, how we show up in the world and healing our wounds, the better we can lead an aligned, fulfilled life. Finding your inner peace helps that happen.
Woodland Orchid Healing is the natural progression and evolution of my first business Wight Lotus Designs (still on insta if you want to check it out). I formally attuned to Usui Reiki 1, 18 years ago. Like many of us, the merry dance of life's distractions meant I have ebbed and flowed with my healing journey as a practitioner, but after the calling got louder and my purpose became clearer, I felt inspired to re-visit my Reiki 1 atunement with Valerie at Savanna Healing. I am grateful for the power house that she is and I have now been a Reiki Level One and Two practitioner for a couple of years, enjoying the journey I am so truly grateful for.
My purpose is peace and I want to support you in finding yours.
I will share more about energy work and my 'creations' as time goes on, but if you would like to get in touch to find out more or to book a session, please use the contact sheet below.
Wishing you peace and blessings
Natalie
