I'm a girl with a big heart (as we all have when we're connected) and I can find love in most things. A bit of an empath, I have a passion for people and believe we should all be free and able to feel joy, but know that is not the case for many. I fell in love with life, nature and people, after not appreciating them for so long; and I feel excited about helping others do the same.
I'm a certified Integral Holistic Health Practitioner and Accredited Right-Mindfulness Teacher.
I am also a qualified Aromatherapist, Reflexologist and Shinrin Yoku (forest bathing) Practitioner. I integrate these into some of the work I do and they contribute to my broad knowledge around wellbeing.
I have personal experience of extreme anxiety, stress and depression; and the negative impact this has on physical health, mental health, relationships, mood and overall wellbeing. I am passionate about connecting with people and helping people to move on from suffering. Although we all experience things differently, understanding you are not alone or isolated in your experiences, is key to believing in change and moving towards it with clarity.
Back in 2016, after years of ignoring stress, burnout, anxiety and my mindset, I started getting lots of physical side effects from rashes to dizziness to palpitations. The palpitations were so extreme, I thought I was having a heart attack or that I had developed a heart condition. I stopped being able to go out and went on sick leave. After several tests, E.C.Gs, scans and trips to the doctors, A&E and the hospital cardiologist; I learnt that I had a clean bill of health. There was no illness but also no answers. All the physical illnesses I had been experiencing could only be down to stress and anxiety. I had reached my limit of how much I was prepared to suffer and so I spent the following 6 months trying anything and everything to feel better. It completely changed my life from dull, depressing and ill, to joyful, exciting and healthier. After 6 months and a lot of trial and error, I now know what truly helps. I can also assure you that it does not take 6 months to free yourself from suffering. It takes work and commitment yes, but it takes only days to feel improvement and weeks to feel completely different. So, I talk from first hand experience about how it's possible to navigate through anxiety so that you can fully understand what it is, understand what it means to you personally and show you how to move passed it and create a life without it. The joy doesn't stop there either. I have changed so many things about my life since 2016 and freeing yourself from anxiety will kick start a journey to feeling more connected, alive and living the life you want to.
I also have a passion for balancing well-being needs with family life, work and societal pressures. Being blessed to have two beautiful girls running me ragged, a big extended family and some awesome friends; I really understand and appreciate how hard it is to have many different hats to wear, roles to fill and people to care for. It can be really difficult to prioritise yourself and well-being when life is busy and demands and expectations are high. I've worked with people from many walks of life and I've gained broad knowledge and experience through my own life experiences, mentors, work and study of self-development and holistic healthcare.
I also have personal experience of dealing with addiction in loved ones. If this impacts you, I can work with you to overcome the impact this has on you and your family.
I can work with you to help you prioritise your own well-being and help you free yourself from unnecessary suffering. I can empower you to regain peace, confidence, balance and perspective. I can guide you to find and connect to your authentic self and connect to the world around you.
Does that sound good?? Trust me, it really is, so don't settle for anything less.
