Hi Everyone,
As ever the diary has been very busy since my last post. I had the great pleasure of being invited to work in Belfast for a few days and that was a great experience. I had not realised just how warm the people are there and I was made very welcome. Brian lynch, a lovely proffesional medium runs a centre there where I worked and there is clearly a huge interest for mediumship in Belfast. many thanks to Brian and John for organising the trip and I look forward to returning next summer:)
More recently I went out to San Roque, Spain to take part in a brand new demonstration of mediumship which I developed with my friend and colleague Frankie Hatton who is a broadcaster and sceptic.
'The Mediumship Experience' was a very enjoyable evening with some excellent feedback as we invited audience participation with psychic excersises followed by a demonstration of mediumship given by myself and with a difference.
Frankie provided a valuable and entertaining balance as a sceptic/ investigator and asked the questions most people would really like to ask and often don't, bringing uniqueness to the evening.
We will continue to develop this and hope to bring it to the UK in 2010 as a mini tour so will keep you all posted:)
The diary is packed with workshops, 1-2-1's and dems for the coming months ahead to keep me out of mischief but I'll update again soon.
Love D xx

Making the Difference
Regular readers of my blog may have realised that Spiritual development and the fascilitating/teaching of it is a passion of mine.
I have a regular and established group on a Monday evening for students training for public work and this week we were kindly invited to a very sensitive situation which not only helped the students but gave healing help to a grieving family in coming to terms with the loss of their son in very difficult and almost unknown circumstances.
It is vital for any student to work within a protected and supportive enviroment but this very honoured opportunity outside of our usual venue allowed them to experience the qualities of sensitivity required in a very real experience of the work of a medium.
My heartfelt thanks and gratitude are with the family who so kindly asked if we would attend the location whose strength and courage touched us all, and to the students who demonstrated their empathy and compassion as very capable future mediums.

Seminars and Podcasts..
Having just arrived home from a 7 day seminar in North Yorkshire I'm burning the candle at both ends catching up with all of the e-mails and of course the blog!
Seminars are very exciting as we as tutors have an opportunity to really get to know the guests and to be a special part of the bonding that so often takes place between them.
Arrival day is the one where most of the students are finding their feet with where they are in their development, being away from home and sometimes not knowing anyone and its just terrific to see each one surpass even their own expectations in the most unique and unexpected way.
The seminar was hosted by 'The Butterfly Fellowship'which was founded 2 years ago by the Lovely John Conway and friends in memory of one of Spiritualisms very special people, Heather Hatton, late wife of Eric Hatton who is the ex - President of the Spiritualists National Union.
It was a priviledge to be a part of the week and I look forward to working alongside them again next year.
Also a big shout this week to Darren Yates, Aston FM's 'Cheeky Chappy' who is giving his expertise to launch my podcasts soon to be available via my website, in addition to some other exciting developments...we'll keep you posted!
Have a fabulous week and check back soon for more updates....

Spiritually Technical Ponderings........
It never ceases to amaze me how the work of a medium can be so varied and change in so many ways. As a newcomer to Spiritualism 13 years ago I could not have imagined how widely available and accessable mediumship and education would become.
Yesterday we had a loss of power for a while.
The office of light was plunged into total silence without the usually unnoticed constant whir of the computer. No e-mail, no internet, no phone to ring, I felt completely lost in the eerie quiet.
I thought in awe of Doris Stokes who achieved so much without the use of computers, mobile phones,Facebook and with 3 channels on the TV. Doris, like so many other earlier mediums, reached out around the world by more simplistic methods that were just as powerful.
Of course many of the pioneers of Spiritualism achieved great things without telephone or television which is testament to Spirit making their mighty message heard utilizing the channels of communication available to them.
Yesterday gave me the time out to ponder this point.
I am soon to join the world of the podcast which will be available on a regular basis via my website so we will keep you up to date on that and you can find me on Facebook too so please drop by and say hello.
Oh we are so fortunate to have such technical freedom but in revelling in that, may we remember with pride,honour and respect, those who faced far greater challenges in much simpler times and succeeded in bringing the knowledge of Spirit this far regardless.

A Busy Week Ahead..
Hi Everyone,
Having recently started giving 1-2-1's again after a break I re - remembered how much I have enjoyed not only working in that way but how great it is to meet clients and also their loved ones in Spirit.
Summer is always busy for me and this is also my development time so more exciting news is to come through the diary page of my website shortly so be sure to visit!
Having had a lovely week at Coberhill recently with the Lynwood Fellowship I shall be packing my bags and heading back there on 15th August for 7 days with The Butterfly Fellowship. This is my first opportunity to work with the Fellowship with Mediums and Tutors Leah Bond and John Conway. John tells me he is taking his karaoke machine and that I am excpected to be in fine voice and fettle - the poor guy has NO idea what he has started and by the second night I will no doubt be found locked and gagged in the laundry cupboard for the wellbeing of the disposition of all concerned..
Yesterday (Saturday 1st August) I was an invited guest Of Aston FM Big City Radio's Darren Yates for a live chat. Darren is a great personality with a healthy interest in mediumship and the paranormal so in addition to the chat, banter and phone ins we had a very enjoyable afternoon - Thanks Darren!
A busy week ahead awaits with teaching and 1-2-1's and I look forward to meeting some of you during that time, and as always please e-mail me if you have a question or enquiry.
Lets hope for some good old British summer weather too...

All Good Things!
Having started 1-2-1's sittings and personal tuition again recently I had forgotten how much I enjoy them. I have had a break for almost a year from giving them locally but am now pleased to be seeing existing friends as well as meeting new ones.
One of the aspects of my work that I love is the many different ways of working with Spirit and my diary is at the moment a fairly equal mix between teaching, demonstrations and private sittings. I am often asked to lecture as well which is always a joy - I just love talking about Spirit!
I am heading of To Coberhill next Sunday for a few days with the Lynwood Fellowship to give workshops and lectures and as this is one of my favourite venues I am looking forward to it imensley. The fellowship is full of very nice people so it should be a jolly old time indeed:)
This week I have just started working on developing a very exciting new project with a good friend of mine and when finalised all will be revealed. I am buzzing with excitement at the prospect of bringing this unique opportunity to life so be sure to watch this space !!
On a different note I was personally affected by the passing of Michael Jackson this week. Everyone will have their own views on this but as a Spiritualist I know that even though he will have fulfilled what he came here to do, it's the grief of Michaels family, friends and fans that touches me.
I feel very blessed to believe that there is a life onwards from this one but I still grieve for those things that are familiar to us human beings,which are then taken from our physical lives.
I hope now having returned home to Spirit that Michael finds peace and solace from the challenges in his life. May this remind us all of how much we need to appreciate each other and every moment of our lives with people we love before we blink and they are gone.

Hi Everyone,
Another hugely busy month has passed since the last entry which leaves me to think 'where does the time go?'
I was invited to go to Witney, Oxfordshire once again earlier in the month to give a dem and 2 day workshop for 'Third Eye Workshops' a highly successful project founded and run by Debbie Blakeney. There is so much interest in spiritual subjects in that area and the dem was well attended as were the workshops. As always the people were very warm and friendly and I had a great time...just hope they all did lol!
That was followed by a dem at Jenny's Sancuary, Banbury on a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon a week later and the atmoshere was just great for clear evidence, lots of contacts as well as some riotous fun with some very lively Spirit folk:)
So in addition to my Thursdays teaching at The College of Psychic Studies, other groups, I am now making appointments again for 1:1 sittings and personal tuition, details which can be found on my website.
Already some great opportunities are coming to fruition for later this year and also 2010 with at least one invite to work in Spain, Gibraltar, Istanbul and early plans for Greece and Cyprus. I consider myself very blessed to love my work and feel very excited about so many things....
Tomorrow Evening (May 29th)I have the great privilege to share the platform at the College in a demonstration of Art and Mediumship with my friend and colleague, June-Elleni -Laine.
We both talk considerably and are vibrant approach to our work so it should be a very lively evening......come and join the fun - details on my diary page as usual.
