MEET OLIVIA HEMPSTEAD
Olivia Hempstead is the founder of Luna Alchemy, a sacred nurturing space created for beings to journey inwards to discover their healer within. Olivia is a Yoga Teacher, Breathwork Facilitator, Reiki Practitioner, Sound Healer and Nutritionist. Through her own healing journey and after many years of trainings, teaching and being a student in a variety of different areas in holistic wellness Olivia knew her purpose was to hold space to help others journey inwards to find a true sense of equilibrium and empowerment within their mind, body and soul.
Inspired by the Luna moths symbolism of rebirth, regeneration, and renewal Luna Alchemy is a space that provides spiritual guidance through transformation to a new self. Olivia believes that having both a healthy mind and body are deeply connected and helping others find this place of balance, harmony and overall wellness within their lives is of great importance to her.
Olivia has spent many years abroad deepening her knowledge and connecting with many different teachers in many different lands. She decided to follow a deep calling last year and returned back to her home in London. Dedicating time to planting seeds to allow a beautiful community to grow around her and her offerings. Olivia works seasonally and with the Moon Cycle where she provides gatherings for all to come connect to journey and heal as a collective.
The ethos of Luna Alchemy is to support, empower and ultimately inspire one another to live the best life we can. By guiding a variety of practices with students Olivia knows how to help one feel safe and grounded in what can sometimes be a vulnerable experience. The purity and strength Olivia has found through guiding and being a channel for others to heal truly inspired and awakened her soul to the change we can make to ourselves and society as a whole simply by elevating our state of relaxation and gratitude. By always remembering to honour our shadows and allowing them the space to breath we can then create space within for our light to shine through once more.
Join Olivia Founder of Luna Alchemy as she holds space through ceremony, marking the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. The changing seasons are key points in the cycle of life in nature, and within this cycle many ancient cultures perceived a powerful deeper message for humanity.
Indigenous cultures recognised earth-based wisdom and understood that the four focal points of the year: the Winter Solstice, Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, and Autumn Equinox; illuminated stages of an inner spiritual journey – a spiritual cycle that the individual takes within themselves. As we consciously link our awareness to nature's cycles, our understanding of our own cycles begin to deepen.
We are mid way through our year which makes this a wonderful time to come gather and reflect as we honour the beginning of the summer solstice. We shall be taking time to release all we may be holding on to that no longer serves us in our journey, then to set our intention for the coming season. To end Olivia Shall guide you through a deeply nourishing Summer Solstice Meditation.
We shall be connecting together via zoom so you are invited to create your own special and sacred space within your home or garden!
