I became passionate and excited by energy healing at a crisis point in my life. Discovering that we ourselves have the power to change things, at a time where I felt that everything was out of my control for me was the biggest gift I could have been given.
The ripple effect as I call it, was the reason I just wanted to learn more and more about energy healing. The fact that we can change something in ourselves and it has a positive effect on those around us created the true passion in me to want to share this with other people. Empowering others to help themselves and in turn this has an impact on those around you. This was my drive to learn more and more about it and to become qualified to offer it to others.
In the Spring before my 45th birthday, my daughter had been under CAMHS for 3 and a half years since the age of 13, with depression, self-harming and a diagnosis of emerging Borderline Personality Disorder. Then that spring my son was diagnosed with a severe eating disorder which came out of the blue very quickly. As a parent you want your children’s world to be as perfect as possible, yet here totally out of my control seemingly was a parent’s nightmare situation.
This along with the huge grief of losing my sister over three years previously and never even coming to terms with her diagnosis of cancer a year previous to her sadly dying, everything felt more than I was able to cope with.
I was gallantly, as so many of us do carrying on. Being strong for my children as this seemed incredibly important for my daughter, but inside I was exhausted and near breaking point despite the outer image I put on to the world.
So I signed up for a 6 week yoga course just to give me a couple of hours break a week. The 6th one landed on my 45th birthday, an age neither my sister nor Mum reached. I had looked upon my 45th birthday as something to be grateful I had reached, but also with the sadness of loss as both my Mum and sister had died age 44.
And there my journey with energy healing began. Realising with movements in your body I could un-trap emotional energy that had been stuck there. That certain poses made me have waves of sadness that I then process over a day or so. It also highlighted how many trapped emotions I had within my body. It all just amazed me and then the breadcrumbs of different techniques, modalities, information presented themselves to me bit by bit. I felt and saw the change in me, but also could not help but acknowledge the change of others around me. It had opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me that until then I had known nothing about.
I have had my own personal experience with mental health with depression and severe anxiety and panic attacks after the loss of my Mum when I was 19 which often imprisoned me in my own life until I was 25. I have, like my daughter been in a place where the world seemed to be a place not for me. And I have my dog at that time to thank for being my anchor to stay, having lost my Mum to alcohol because she found the world incredibly hard to cope with. This led me early on at age 19 to learn around how our thoughts are so powerful and had such influence on us.
Later on in 2008 I began study & learn around neuroplasticity & what is now so often caled mindset. I believe this foundation of knowledge has helped me immensely & is something I bring into my sessions as we naturally re-wire the brain, we raise our vibration so we become more resillient too. When energy healing came into my life in a different way, I was able to layer this with my earlier learning which is how I offer it in my sessions.
I feel the mixture of my own personal experiences and loved one’s around me that my purpose is to help others. To share what I have learned to create a calmer, happier and more connected life for myself and those around me.
With my daughter and son being very poorly at the same time, the importance of myself being positive was magnified at a time when they themselves had not the energy to see anything as positive. There is nothing worse than when you are in a low and dark place people looking on you thinking you should look at the good stuff. I am a huge advocate of being positive, always looking for the best outcome, I am also incredibly aware this is not at all times achievable for many. That was another beautiful nod to me, that by myself keeping positive and what I now know as high vibration too, that has an effect on not only you but those around you.
Which is why when I came across Quantum Touch it resonated so much with me. I bring this and the many other tools I have learned into whatever I am doing. In my own life and now sharing with others.
Energy healing, energy work, energy coaching or energy psychology whatever you choose to label it all comes from within. Which is why it is my mission to share these tools, to create the space you need to embrace the change and to create the ripple effect that is so much needed in this world today.
As I continue new learning as we all do, I will keep sharing to help us grow, heal and shift together.
I am a huge nature and animal lover and recognise all that nature has to offer us more so than ever now. I have always been interested in wellbeing including nutrition & I love experimenting with all sorts of flavours in the kitchen
For in-person treatments you may well meet my dog Kit, who regularly shares his beautiful healing energy when out and about, as well as at home or if given permission in my treatment room.
Pearl my cat may also make an appearance. Both Kit and Pearl enjoy all energy work as do most animals.
I live in Chippenham, Wiltshire and I love to get out and about as much as possible. Whether that is in the community chatting to people or an escape into nature somewhere quiet in our surrounding beautiful countryside
