December 2018 – reclaiming my birthname…
Life is so precious and short, so I am committed with every fibre of my being to following my heart and soul. Life evolves, reshapes, reforms – things change and grow. Things that once were a deep, meaningful part of our lives also at times fall away. Sometimes we complete a stage of absolute transformation, shedding so many layers that we emerge like a phoenix from the ashes, a major life shift.
And so this is where I am at! I’ve closed the door on an old chapter of my life and my heart would not rest until I honoured the calling in my soul. That calling was to reclaim my original name, my birth name ‘Anastasia’.
I changed my name to Trinity around 13 years ago (and was known as Trinity between 2005 and 2018). It is a name I adore and will always have a special place in my heart, although also it also signifies a chapter in my life that is now over and is falling away.
In 2017, much of my world fell apart. I feel deeply humbled from what I have learned. I feel an abundance of gratitude for the insight I’ve gained about what it really means to surrender ourselves into the fragility of being human. I feel so thankful that I have learned to trust that no matter what, there is always a way if we listen deep within. During that time, I’ve also witnessed the strength of spirit that can pull us out of even the darkest nights. It has inspired me to be a better human, to help bring darkness to light, to ‘be the change’ and continue to allow ripples of my deepest love to ripple out into our Sacred Earth.
As I type this I am sitting on a mountain as the sacred winds of change brush through me, harmonising with nature. I am no longer in England, having recently completely let go of my old home and life in Glastonbury. For now, wherever I lay my hat is home. A liberating and enriching experience that truly makes my soul sing as I am drawn back to the Earth and nature for inspiration and guidance for authentic living. Who knows where I will finally land… All I ask is that the universe puts me where ever I can be of best divine service.
I am delighted to say that I will be continuing the conscious kitchen work as before but also expanding into other areas that will be of interest to many people tuning in here (such as animal and plant spirit medicine, kind earth living, following the heart and personal/spiritual growth). I will however, be renaming my website to KindEarth.net
Thank you for being here. Thank you for reading and being part of this journey with me.
with love
Anastasia

You have found the greatest strength. This is what will guide you through the next step of your exciting journey.
What an awesome story, it really lifted my spirit.
I hear you! Blessings for all you will encounter!
What a beautiful name! A ‘re-birth’ for sure. And a ‘home-coming’. And courageous! Wishing you all you need and desire and love from here and onwards into 2019 and beyond…. I so look forward to learning more… I would so love to learn more about animal and spirit medicine and lessons from the Earth. Please keep sending foodie stuff.
So beautiful, Anastasia. I celebrate this reclaiming in new birth! I went through a similar journey this last year, and after divorce found that I could not return to my maiden name. It was no longer there for me. I chose a new one, and it feels like the wind beneath my wings. Loving you and all that you are on the sacred journey called life
Wish you all the best for your next journey Anastasia. You are a true inspiration, really enjoy your wholesome recipes, please keep in touch.💓

Just getting here now Anastasia! Thank you for redirecting me to your new page and new direction. It’s heartwarming yes but more than this it’s awe inspiring! I feel the freedom energy emanating from your words and it’s so beautiful. I feel your journey waking up something long dormant within myself too, thank you for bringing your specialness here and teaching me through your authentic experience.
So wonderful to see you again, for the first time ❤️🙏
Wonderful!
After I read and studied especially 2 books (Astrology for the Soul by Jan Spiller and Discovering your Life Mission by Linda Brady) I am embarking on my life mission. All about the North Node.
Would love to know your North Node and then it sounds like you have had a Saturn Return (happens every 30 years)! Saturn always shakes us awake, but for our own spiritual awakening.
Love and Gratitude!
Thank you for sharing your journey Anastasia. I too have a calling to change my name as it no longer resonates with me and the person I am today. When we listen to our Higher Self, the true path is revealed. Wishing you all the best is all you do.
Trinity. I too became Vegan because of a calling. I became vegan vegan two months ago. I have compassion for animals for sentient beings ( spiders , fish, mammals, the list goes on. I didn’t have that before two months ago it hit me like a ton of bricks I am not a happy vegan I am going through a shit ton of emotional changes right now I could never would never go back to eating animals I could not go back to eating animal by products I see the truth I know the truthThe biggest sadness for me is that I am a culinary person I would call my self a home chef I am very much struggling in that my whole identity that revolved around food now is completely changed. My family supports me and at the same time doesn’t know what to do with me. I was hoping for a group of friends to share this spiritual journey as I feel both connected to all and very lonely at the same time. Thank you for sharing your story. I relate.
