    🌹✨ A little love note for you… ✨🌹 Som 🌹✨ A little love note for you… ✨🌹

Sometimes we move so fast that we forget to pause, breathe and listen to our own hearts.

If you’ve been craving a gentle moment to come back to yourself, I’ve created a set of guided meditations just for you.

🎧 They’re here to help you slow down, soften, open to love and feel more at home in your own body.

You can listen any time you need a little tenderness or a reminder that love lives inside you, waiting to be felt.

✨ Explore them here: https://catemackenzie.com/meditations/ ✨

With love,

    When I paint, I am not just making art. I am nouri When I paint, I am not just making art. I am nourishing myself.
Each brushstroke is a way of listening, of honouring what is alive inside me. I move with the music, I let colour speak, I feel my body soften and my heart expand. Something beautiful happens when we give space to what lights us up. It feels like coming home to ourselves.

In my work with couples and individuals, I often see how easily this can be forgotten. Life becomes about doing and coping. Yet when we choose to engage in what brings us joy, we rebuild confidence, we remember our worth, and we even begin to flirt with the parts of ourselves we most cherish. We become magnetic again, not only to others but to our own hearts.

This is what it means to lead a life filled with everyday pleasure. It is not only about sexuality. It is about noticing and relishing beauty in the world, savouring the warmth of connection, delighting in colour, movement, music, and the small joys that make life feel alive. It is a life that moves away from constant struggle and leans into nourishment and presence.

Painting does that for me. For you, it might be singing, writing, dancing, cooking, planting something and watching it grow. It is less about the activity itself and more about the way it calls you back to your aliveness.

I would love to know, what do you do that feeds your light?

And if my heart paintings speak to you, some are available to bring into your home. Each one is created in this spirit of love, presence and renewal. You can see them through the link in my bio or reach out if one is calling you.

    What if slowing down could make love feel even mor What if slowing down could make love feel even more electric? 🌹

Bridging is a practice that helps two people meet in their hearts — and their bodies. It’s about slowing down, breathing together, and crossing a little “bridge” into each other’s world. 🌉

When you sit close, breathe softly, and really look into your partner’s eyes, something shifts. The space between you becomes alive. Words melt into presence. Your nervous systems sync. Desire grows in the safety of being truly seen.

✨ Try this:
Tonight, sit facing your partner. Breathe slowly together. Ask one open question : “What do you long for right now?” and listen with your WHOLE BODY.

You may be surprised how much intimacy, tenderness… and spark 🌹 … can unfold when you stop rushing and start really meeting.

Because sometimes the sexiest thing isn’t what you do — it’s the way you connect. 💋

    What if love isn’t ‘good’ or ‘bad’ — b What if love isn’t ‘good’ or ‘bad’ — but simply part of your bigger picture?

High up on a mountain in my beloved Wales, I looked down on two villages. One was glowing in sunshine, the other was soaked in rain. And yet from above, both were utterly beautiful. 🌦️☀️

It made me realise how often we judge our love lives this way: “this date was a disaster”, “that relationship was amazing”. But with perspective, each season of love (rain or shine) carries its own lessons, beauty and growth.

Sometimes a connection lights us up. Other times it teaches us what we don’t want. Both belong. Both matter.

✨ A gentle reflection:
Can you look back on a relationship or dating experience and see it less as “right” or “wrong”, and more as a step on your journey towards love?

Because even the rainy dates might just be watering the flowers of your future love story 🌹😉
