As you may know from my past blog posts, one of my main goals is to make my tarot services as accessible as possible for everyone, regardless of financial status and disabilities.
I myself have several hidden disabilities as a neurodivergent individual with ADHD, dyspraxia, tic disorder and mental health conditions. I have recently diagnosed asthma and I now also use a walking stick when out and about, to help me with my dyspraxia and fatigue related balance issues. So, I claim to know a fair bit of the potential obstacles one might have when accessing certain services. I, of course, don't have experience of every single issue, so I aim to educate myself on those awareness matters. Holistic services can boost overall well-being tremendously, especially when combined with western medicine and therapies. I believe everyone should feel welcome and appreciated in holistic spaces and services. I've made sure I have virtual and email based options for those who might not want a live or face-to-face appointment. I make sure I can do live appointments by text as well as video and voice call basis. I also do face-to-face walk-in events in accessible venues. However, I do want to notify that I can't control the lighting, noise or smells in these venues. For example, the beautiful treatment room in The Faerie Shop is used for other holistic therapies as well, including sound bath and aroma therapy, meaning there is a chance the noises and smells can be too strong for someone with sensory problems. The shop has incense, smudge sticks/sage, soaps and candles which all have strong scents and can cause reactions. The shop is playing (usually) calming instrumental music and I also have my own playlist I use during tarot sessions (this can be turned off of course). The lighting is soft and usually natural, through the big windows in the shop. Some windows have sun catchers, which can cause bright beams. The shop itself is located on the ground floor of the Enterprise Shopping Centre, but there is no accessible toilets as they're located on the first floor without a lift. Nearest accessible toilets are at the train station and the Beacon shopping centre. If you feel like you'd like to get to know me first before agreeing to a tarot session with me, feel absolutely comfortable with getting in touch with me first! Sending a message doesn't require you to book in with me. I will reply as soon as I can. Here follows a direct quote from my previous blog post: I also want to make sure, that my services are accessible to everyone despite an individual's financial status. As someone who's had to rely on food banks at one point in my life, I know very well how much money £30 can be. And those also were the times when I needed advice, guidance and support the most when it came to emotional, spiritual and practical matters. Or just needed to talk to somebody. So, with this post, I ask you to get in touch with me if you feel like you could benefit from a tarot reading, but you feel like you can't afford it right now. I'm very happy to do discounts on Etsy, accept a small donation or even do a tarot reading for free for those who need it the most. Just send me a message on Facebook, on Instagram, on Etsy or through my email [email protected]. In any case, if you do have any concerns or questions about the services I provide, please do get in touch. I am very happy to discuss tarot and practicalities when it comes to my services. I aim to be as flexible and accessible as possible. Kindly, Enni
