The Blue Kingdom is a place like no other on the main street of Braidwood. As you enter the store you are greeted with the whimsical scent of burning incense, which transports you to a realm of spiritual freedom and wellbeing. The store offers everything from beautiful crystals and handcrafted products to an organic apothecary of loose herbal supplies and a range of metaphysical and quantum-focused books.
Dedicated owner Nicki explains that the decision to create and open her store was spiritually inspired. The spiritual aspect of her decision was coupled with ending a rather intense role in the Government Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation services sector. Starting out, Nicki hoped for her store to become a luscious and spiritual place where those that are searching for higher truths and information can just be. The space has now grown into an enlightening spiritual hub that is not only loved by Braidwood locals, but the wider connecting towns and cities as well.
Apart from the wonderfully unique items available for purchase in-store, The Blue Kingdom offers much, much more. The main services offered within the building include Oracle, Psychic and Jungian – based card readings as well as art therapy, transpersonal psychotherapy, massages, skin therapy, and holographic kinetics practice. They also have a Professional writing mentor available for one-on-one sessions. She is a local and is also a well-known published writer of 5 books in sci-fi/fantasy series and can offer a wealth of knowledge to those wanting to improve their writing skills or start writing professionally. They also have a long list of connections to holistic practitioners across the Coast that they can refer their customers to.
As of late, there has been a rise in popularity for quantum healing methods and using these to heal personal traumas. Nicki sheds light on what Quantum healing is, what it can do for you and a list of books offered in her store that can help. Quantum healing is a term for understanding that healing primarily occurs through a mind and body connection. This generally entails a combination of higher consciousness, energy, frequency, intention, manifestation, and the power of choosing rather than leaving things to chance.
Overall, it is a fine way to begin living a life that reflects a sense of disconnection from ‘the matrix’ and the common systems of order. It offers a balance between being in touch with your society, while remaining separate in your own spiritual evolution. Nicki believes that “One can never and will never fully heal unless genuine inner work begins, where one can step off the pendulum of action/reaction to take a look and witness their own behaviour and self”.
upcoming workshops
Since moving locations and establishing herself in a new place, Nicki has taken a step back from workshops over the past eight months. However, the workshops are making an exciting return very shortly. The first upcoming workshop is called “An intimate creative evening – The exposure of Clay”. This is an extraordinary sensory event where you immerse yourself in the exploration and embodiment of clay. Craft a personalized, physical representation of your vulva and have an opportunity to reflect and amplify the process in a warm safe place.

TAROT READINGS AND DIVINATION
Famous analytical Psychologist Carl Jung coined the termed ‘Individuation Process’ and used several things to access the inner world and spiritual world of the person. The Tarot is also a tool for personal story telling and personal growth, the development of the Self. According to Jung, the process of divination can be described as “accessing information from your subconscious mind to generate intuitive knowing in your conscious mind”. This description perfectly encapsulates the process by which the tarot reading can assist clients in the interpretation and implementation of their reading.
One of Nicki’s personal passions and a field in which she has specialised during her university studies is semiotics. This is the study of signs and symbols and their significance in our individual lives and behaviours. As an art therapist, she is acutely aware of the potency of the psychic and personal insights gained by observing how people respond to visual imagery via oracle and tarot.
Nowadays, Nicki finds herself drawn to using her spiritual and psychic knowledge as a foundation for exploration; in conjunction with the tarot system, signs, symbols, archetypes, intuition, instinctive reactions, spirit, and the power of discernment. She describes that her journey with listening to her own spirit and its psychic knowledge has been lifelong. Nicki firmly believes that each person brings their “unique universe” before her, and together, they embark on a journey to unearth authentic avenues for assisting them through the session and their world.”
This process extends beyond the confines of the room and into the tangible world, where clients can apply these revelations to their lives.
“One of the most fascinating aspects of readings, is that regardless of the content discussed in that instance, each person retains their unique free will.”
She explains that once the client steps beyond the initial context, new possibilities for thoughts and actions emerge, ultimately shaping the reality that governs any potential psychic outcomes that were explored during the reading session.
