The Channelling's 2020 Journey

A brief recap of The Channelling's journey through 2020...

January

​The first TEA WITH KIMBERLY session for the year went live on the 19th of January. I managed to do over a thousand free readings during 2020 with these livestreams! TEA WITH KIMBERLY livestreams will continue in 2021. 

​February

After the devastating bushfires in Australia, we managed to donate over $700 to the New South Wales Fire Rescue Service and Wires Wild Life Rescue to help our Australian cousins. All donations were sourced from reading bookings and passed directly to these services, so a big thank you to everyone who booked a reading in with me in January!

​March

The magnificent Taylor started working at The Channelling one week before we went into lockdown! The Channelling closed its doors on the 20th of March, two days before the Alert Level 4 lockdown was announced (an intuitive decision on my part!).

​April

New Zealand dropped down to Alert Level 3 on the 27th of April which meant that we could start sending out online orders again! It was a mad rush to pack everything up from the store and take it home with me so that I could send out orders from there, but it was so exciting to be back at work. 

​May

​During the lockdown I managed to speak to lots of talented individuals and businesses online. This helped us to source some beautiful new crystal soaps and crystal dreamcatchers, all of which sold out immediately after we got them in. May was extremely busy for us as our online orders went through the roof!

​June

​My third book ‘The Great New Zealand Lockdown’ was completed during June and went through the final editing process. It had taken three months of diligently working on it throughout and post lockdown. ‘The Great New Zealand Lockdown’ has now sold overseas, is featured on Amazon and has been put into some NZ Library Collections.

​July

My first short and sweet post for the Inspired Guide is published. Every month since July I’ve been adding little articles about crystals to their magazine. If you haven’t already taken a look at The Inspired Guide make sure you check it out...they have loads of articles from talented individuals in there.

​August

Another COVID outbreak and another lockdown. Auckland went into Alert Level 3 on the 12th of August which meant that we had to shut our doors again. Luckily, we were still able to send out your online crystal orders and continue to do readings online.

​September

The release of The Channelling 2021 Almanac came early this year as the lockdowns provided ample time to get it finished. We still have copies available to order. I also joined Jono & Ben on the radio to give them insight into whether they would manage to sink a Hole in One in Taupo or not. You can listen to my predictions for them here.

​October

I started writing monthly horoscopes for Penny and Bennett (which you can read here). We also had our first livestream crystal sale at the end of October which was so much fun! In October we released our new mini crystal candles from the ‘Lands of the Sea’ range too.

November

November was fairly quiet as we did our usual thing including TEA WITH KIMBERLY livestreams, our second live crystal sale and our massive Black Friday sale at the end of the month. All of our Christmas stock continued to be held up at the Ports of Auckland which was frustrating!

​December

I was interviewed by Caroline Robinson for Seven Sharp to talk about how busy the psychic industry had been during 2020 (You can view the full video here). I also held the last TEA WITH KIMBERLY session for the year and released our new Crystal Flame Candles at the end of the month too!

To all of you who have booked in with me, bought crystals and other goodies from The Channelling and followed us on our social media pages I can’t thank you enough! Your support has meant that we didn’t have to close the doors and walk away after the 2020 lockdowns, so we can continue to spread love and light where needed.

We are closed for the Christmas and New Years break from the 25th of December to the 12th January.

I wish you all the happiness, health and peace for the New Year. 2021 is going to be amazing!

Love & light,

​Kimberly Stewart
