Heal by Tom Odell*click here to listen*
Take my mind
And take my pain
Like an empty bottle takes the rain
And heal, heal, heal, heal
And take my past
And take my sense
Like an empty sail takes the wind
And heal, heal, heal, heal
And tell me some things last
And tell me some things last
Take a heart
And take a hand
Like an ocean takes the dirty sand
And heal, heal, hell, heal
Self heal [Prunella vulgaris]
In our garden this little plant grows with gay abandon in our poor well drained almost structureless soil. An ideal habit indeed.
Handsome as self heal is, its tendency to creep and success in self seeding does not put a smile on a gardeners face. I however, have left self heal to do its thing unmolested in our rockery.

My wife recently got back from Santa Fe, visiting her sister. On some of their sight seeing they stopped at this chapel.
El Santuario de Chimayó is a Roman Catholic church in Chimayó, New Mexico, USA. This santuario (Spanish for "sanctuary"), a National Historic Landmark, is famous for the story of its founding and as a contemporary pilgrimage site. It receives almost 300,000 visitors per year and has been called "no doubt the most important Catholic pilgrimage center in the United States."
In the early 19th Century, nineteen families lived in what was then called El Potrero de Chimayó (potrero means pasture). The land where the Santuario now stands belonged to Don Fernando Abeyta, one of the first members of Los Hermanos de la Fraternidad Piadosa de Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno (the Penitentes) in the area. Also, he was probably devoted to the Christ of Esquipulas, a pilgrimage site in Guatemala where the clay is ascribed healing power. A nephew of Don Fernando was christened Juan de Esquipulas in 1805.
Fernando Abeyta built a small chapel to the Christ of Esquipulas on the present site around 1810. On November 15, 1813, he wrote to Father Sebastián Álvarez, the parish priest of Santa Cruz de la Cañada, asking him to write to the Episcopal See of Durango for permission to build a bigger church in which the people of El Potrero could worship Jesus as he appeared at Esquipulas and could hear Mass. The next day, Fr. Álvarez wrote the letter, mentioning that cures were reported and many pilgrims were arriving. On February 8, 1814, Francisco Fernández Valentín, Vicar General of the Diocese of Durango, wrote back with permission. By 1816 the chapel was replaced by the present church.
Some say that before the Spaniards arrived, a hot spring that then flowed near the site was sacred to the Tewa Indians for its healing powers.
One version of the legend says that during Holy Week, Abeyta (or a friar) saw a light shining from the hillside and dug the crucifix up with his bare hands. He turned it over to Fr. Álvarez, who took it to the Chimayó church, but the crucifix mysteriously returned to the spot where Abeyta found it. After the third time this happened, Álvarez and Abeyta decided to build a chapel on the spot to house the crucifix.
Another version says Abeyta was watching his sheep and contemplating his blessings, though he was sick, when a vision of his patron saint, San Esquipula, beckoned to him. He went to the place where the saint had appeared and knelt; he was cured immediately. Other people also were cured there, and Abeyta built the chapel in thanks.
A third version says that the crucifix had belonged to a priest from Esquipulas who accompanied the first Spanish settlers in Chimayó. He was killed by Indians and buried in Chimayó. A flood of the Santa Cruz River (a small tributary of the Rio Grande) in the spring of 1810 uncovered the body and the crucifix. People who remembered the priest dedicated the shrine to the Christ of Esquipulas
I have heard legends about the Heart Healer... A sorcerer who can fix them all with his power... but there is only one of them true... you have to take, like Dorothy, the yellow brick road that leads to yourself. There you will find the greatest heart healer of all...

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.

A slight change to the normal programming as I've just had a couple of days in London where Shaun and I went to see the legend that is Roger Waters at Hyde Park... needless to say he was awesome! We did manage to find some time to get around London with our cameras and one stop was the The Cecil Brewer Staircase found in Heal's. I have to say thanks to Rich Walker for pointing me in the right direction for this!
I have been urged not only by my doctor but by a wise flickr friend (Dani) to cut sugar from my diet, it took me long enough and it's only been 10 days but I truly can feel a difference and I truly am healing from the inside out, it's amazing. I will still have treats, I can't just live without them but they will be much more of a treat instead of part of my daily diet. Yeah, yeah, yeah all into these wraps, when I find something I like, I stick to it and just mix it up a little here or there.

Love the healing effect that the sea has on me. Love going to the coast when i'm stressed out because it cleans my mind of the daily life confusions. I always returned home focused and relaxed.

With the wild nature as ally and teacher we see not through two eyes but through the many eyes of intuition. With intuition we are like the starry night, we gaze at the world through a thousand eyes. The wild woman is fluent in the language of dreams, images, passion, and poetry. -Clarissa Pinkola Estes
“The wild woman carries the bundles for healing; she carries everything a woman needs to be and to know … As in all art, she resides in the guts, not in the head … She whispers from night dreams, she leaves behind on the terrain of a woman’s soul a coarse hair and muddy footprints … She is the voice which says, ‘This way, this way.” … She is from the future and from the beginning of time.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Snug Harbor for anyone who's never been there is really a wonderful place. I have spent a few weeks photographing there and highly recommend a trip to Staten Island for a visit.
New GIANT photo!
Can't believe how many we've done now, we're up to 17 images in the series! Given how long it takes to make the props, it's pretty amazing! This idea only came to me about 4 days ago and Will and I made it yesterday! I shot it with my awesome friend Cat, she is the best and always up for anything to get a good photo.
Hope you like! xx
