The second take proved more successful, but we still had a brief appearance from the strange light phenomenon!
Comparable to Glastonbury Tor in miniature, Burrow Mump is a striking natural hill topped by the ruins of a medieval church, also dedicated to St. Michael, just like its better known neighbour.
Located near the village of Burrowbridge in Somerset and rising about 24 metres (80 feet), the hill provides sweeping views of the surrounding fields and wetlands. The site is known for its long history, with archaeological findings suggesting human activity dating back to the Roman and Saxon periods.
The church ruins were originally built in the 15th century, although earlier religious structures may have existed on the site. Only ever partially completed, the stone walls that remain are weathered and open to the elements, adding to the site’s sense of rugged beauty and quiet reverence.
Today, the half-finished nature of the church only enhances its mysterious aura, standing as a reminder of the ambitions and challenges faced by those who sought to build and inhabit this windswept hill.
Again, like nearby Glastonbury Tor, Burrow Mump is often associated with myths, legends, and theories regarding “energy lines” or “ley lines”; hypothetical alignments of powerful spiritual or energetic significance.
Many believe that Burrow Mump is located along a significant energy line, coincidentally named after St. Michael 🤔 that bisects the country, connecting the Mump with other ancient sites like Glastonbury Tor, Avebury or Royston Caves.
Standing here on a beautiful, clear Autumn morning, it’s hard to argue against the theory, as there is undoubtedly a tangible energy and mysterious allure to the place, making Burrow Mump well worth a visit if you happen to be in the area.

Trying to record on an energy line proved to be an interesting experience!
I’m not sure what was happening with the plasma beam of light that kept appearing on my head, I would like to think it was some kind of 5th dimensional energetic upgrade 🤗 but as I didn’t feel any different afterwards, it must just have been an everyday occurrence, a mere trick of the light…😉😆😊

☀️SUMMER JOY RETREAT DAY- Saturday 11th June in Harpenden
Our theme for this retreat as we will be in the natural energy building towards the Summer Solstice is called "Surrender, Flow and Celebrate"
This time of year is the where we can witness and experience the full abundance of energy and light that the height of summer brings.
It has always traditionally been a time of celebration, of joy and gratitude.
However, in times of trial and tribulations accessing our joy and gratitude can be understandably challenging. Yet both of these qualities are vital to our peace, our emotional and mental stability.
So throughout this retreat, we shall be exploring the concept of surrender (Iswara Pranidhana in Yoga) and how to flow with and honour what life is presenting us with without losing ourselves in turmoil and celebrating this magical , mysterious gift of life.
We are delighted to be offering you retreat day of connection, relaxation and wellbeing support through yoga, meditation, pranayama, sound and hypnotherapy techniques.

A glorious day for some outdoor sounds, monochord and Sun gong riverside at the idyllic medieval splendour of Bisham Abbey.
There was plenty of background noise too, making for a magnificent soundscape; the hustle and bustle of gin palaces and rowboats on old Father Thames, competing with red kites, rooks and gulls, keening in their raucous cacophony, each adding their distinctive voice, as if in homage to Spring, as they wheeled merrily overhead.
After a long and tedious winter, it feels as if the green tide of springtime has finally risen!
The final sound check before kickoff at the fabulous Tofte Manor!
