23rd Oct 2026

Sunday 25th October, sees the clock go backwards in the UK, and there is no doubt that this period of stillness then seems to make autumn all the more serious.
The evenings are a little darker and the nights draw in quicker, summer clothes are long forgotten, the temperature drops and the heat-waves seem like a distant memory. We start talking about heating bills, hot water bottles not air conditioning are now on our minds, as we hunt down our favourite woolly jumpers, boots, scarves and gloves!
If you like the autumn and winter season, then perhaps you see the earlier darkness as an invitation and opportunity to slow down, as opposed to something to endure.
In this season, everything in nature slows down. Trees lose their leaves, our gardens become quieter with less foliage and colour, wild animals prepare for winter. We can use this as a reminder, that different seasons have different rhythms, and that we as humans can also benefit from a slower period, time for reflection and for re-charging for exciting times to come.
It is the perfect time to not be racing at a million miles per hour, and to turn our attention inwards, have there been things we should have noticed, have we noticed but ignored things, have we considered what we really need?
If you are used to running at pace throughout life, then you may feel quite resistant to a period of stillness. To help you transition, why not try having an evening ritual that sets the frame of mood each day.
It may be as simple as lighting a candle in your home. Maybe it is making a drink that feels seasonal – like a hot chocolate. It could be a warm bubble bath. For, some it may be a period of time to journal or meditate, or maybe you set up a jigsaw and spend a few minutes finding some fitting pieces each day.
There are no rules here – so just find something that works for you.
Very often any resistance to slowing down, is a feeling that doing so means being unproductive. But this needn’t be the case. Our minds most definitely benefit from periods of rest, and your intuition is likely to be enhanced when other internal-chatter is dialled back.
Rather than trying to fill the space with activities, like watching TV, internet searching, social media browsing, or just tasks in and around the home. Allow yourself the time and space to just be, to pause, to notice the quiet – give yourself permission to let your mind wander, and to be free from being ‘productive’, without needing to turn every thought into an action or list of things to do.
You might just be surprised at how much more creative and at peace you feel.
If creating stillness in your life is a struggle, why not have a reading with one of our Mediums, together you can look at what prevents you from quietening your mind and forge a plan ahead.

I’ve enjoyed 3 readings with Jasmine this year. Each time I’ve found her to tune in quickly, be consistently spot on, especially on issues I was asking about from the past. She is a no-nonsense but wonderful psychic medium, refreshingly direct and honest with a warm Midlands accent. Jasmine is the real deal and despite her straightforward style is kind & compassionate. A really WISE woman. Thank you so much for your many revealing insights and God bless you.

I had a lovely reading with Karen this morning. She gave my poi’s name immediately which is very rare with any medium. She also gave me a couple of other names. I felt reassured that I may hear from them again although I cried during the reading. She was very kind. I’ve had other readers who can be judgemental. Not this lady. She is kind and I felt reassured so much so now I want another reading!!

Must report an astounding reading from John 5152. While I have been privileged to have received readings for many years and all have been so important this from John was more real than you could ever imagine. Relaying messages and comments that could only have come from those I once knew in life and are clearly unchanged in the other. Good work and so important. John has such an impressive gift.
