Musings of a 21st Century Apprentice Medicine Woman - Walking Boots & Raincoats

Tessa Jonassen - Tuesday, July 17, 2012

Hello everyone Another month has passed since my last blog and I am still in the UK wishing, like many others, that summer would make an appearance very soon. It has been incredibly wet and I am on my second rain coat and the windscreen wipers on my car have broken from over use! So there has been a lot of time for contemplation about my journey so far and questions about where to from he ...Read More

One Way Ticket

Tessa Jonassen - Saturday, June 09, 2012

It is over two months since I arrived in the UK from my home in New Zealand. The reason for the trip was to spend time with my elderly Mum as we hadn't seen one another for over two years. The decision to visit wasn't exactly spur of the moment, but it was a decision made from the heart rather than the head. When I checked in with my head there were many reasons why I couldn't come here to vis ...Read More

Musings of a 21st Century Apprentice Medicine Woman - The Missing Violets

Tessa Jonassen - Friday, May 25, 2012

I have no idea why the picture of the Violets didn't appear with the previous blog - perhaps they are shy. So I will try again to see if they will show their gorgeous faces. ...................

It did of course r ...Read More

There I am busy seeing clients, looking after the home, seeing friends, shopping and all the 'stuff' that makes up modern day living. Our house is often abuzz with activity, people coming and g ...Read More

Musings of a 21st Century Apprentice Medicine Woman - Learning from the Elements

Tessa Jonassen - Wednesday, March 07, 2012

Since my first post just a week or so ago I have been putting in place, or I should say, attempting to put in place structures and systems for both my professional and personal life. The reason for this is that I need to carve some 'time' to focus on the Medicine Woman Apprenticeship and be able to do this I needed to clear the decks. The 'decks' for me is my workspace which includes filing ...Read More

Musings of a 21st Century Apprentice Medicine Woman

Tessa Jonassen - Monday, February 20, 2012

One of the reasons that I have launched a new website is to give me the flexibility to write a blog. I had no clear idea what these blogs writings were going to be about, but I have felt compelled to create a blog page. As the website was nearing completion, the realisation that a decision needed to be made about what the focus of the blog was going to be about could no longer be put off. The ...Read More
