Welcome to The Teahouse, a space that inspires self-empowerment at any age.

It is never too late or early to recognise the toxicities of the world and how they affect us. At the Teahouse we acknowledge these toxicities in the environment, which can lead to negative habits within ourselves. They vary for everyone, however the common thread for everybody is one of frustration when trying to moderate anything.

Whether you would like to cut down on alcohol, stop smoking/vaping, quit sugar, leave a toxic relationship, or be better at managing household waste!!!! The Teahouse has the motivational tool to help.

When I was cutting down and eventually giving up alcohol, I started to dream in cartoons!!! These dreams lead me to create the first deck of Oracle cards and my first children’s book.

  • I am in the process of creating other decks of Oracle Cards, tackling the habit of sugar, vaping and several other toxic habits.

  • My next children’s book will be available in August 2025. It’s a fable designed at helping children understand the effects of sugar and diet on their mental health.

The Western Monk Oracle Cards

The Western Monk Teahouse Lime deck of Oracle Cards is designed to empower a healthier happier version of us, by moderating alcohol and any toxicity associated with it. The cards are a great conversation starter for families or a good tool to carry with you for inspirational support. The meanings of the cards are below just click on “Card Meanings”.

There are video readings of the cards on The Western Monk Instagram and Facebook.

The Adventures of Worm

The Adventures of Worm is a fable. It is written for 10 years and up. The Adventures of Worm contains lessons of courage and compassion.

The Adventures of Worm was created to help children understand the effects of alcohol. The fable helps children of all ages remember that self-empowerment comes from having the courage to choose a healthy body and mind and by doing so can alter the course of their lives and the lives of the people around them.
