I believe that taking care of our wellbeing and emotional regulation, whilst encouraging our expansive, dreaming potential are key ingredients for a happy and fulfilled life. I also believe we can maximise this effect by immersing in supportive community to witness and support us on this journey.
I have spent over 25 years investigating our energy system, biology and capacity for healing through complementary therapies and metaphysical techniques.
The path of bringing my own health and wellbeing into balance, after experiencing a lot of pain and disharmony in my own body and life, has been part of the inspiration in being able to share this knowledge and help hold space for others to their own healing and empowerment.
BODYWORK THERAPIES, ANCIENT PHILOSOPHIES and MINDFULNESS
I have studied many different Massage techniques, Reiki Healing, Reflexology, Seiki Healing, Aromatherapy, Natural Nutrition, the groundwork of Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, the Chakra System of the body, the spiritual gains and healing capabilities of Lucid Dreaming (enhanced greatly by the teachings of the buddhist teacher Charlie Morley), TRE techniques (Trauma Releasing Exercise) and some Mindfulness and Buddhist based Meditation practices.
I am a self taught astrologer – learning through books and intuition.
These days my favourite rebalancing tools to connect me to spirit come through singing, dance, prayer, meditation, playing guitar and lucid dreaming.
Working 1-2-1 my main areas of mastery are encouraging ‘release’ in others on their path to freedom. I create a safe and nurturing container for the intelligence of your body to rise up and release blocked channels creating dis-ease and dis-harmony. I have faced deep fears and shadows in my own psyche and feel very called to help others to do the same.
I have recently been very inspired by the work of Stephan V Beyer and his work on peacemaking and conscious listening as a practice for partners and groups.
THE POWER OF ESSENTIAL OILS
In my teenage years, I was full of passion for healing ourselves the gentle and natural way and I became an aromatherapist in 1995 after feeling consistently let down by the medical profession with my own suffering.
This was a very exciting time for me as I had also recently qualified as a massage therapist and reflexologist and answers to my long term health issues actually felt possible. I offer classes and assist people with 1-2-1 support with Essential Oils. Read more here
LIFE COACHING/MENTORING IN LIFE TRANSITIONS AND FOR TRANSFORMATION
I offer mentoring/support for the times we feel the need for support to thrive. Behind highly successful people is a mentor/life coach, helping them carve their way out of their life path to their fulfilment. When we have the support we need, we can truly flourish beyond belief. I use an astrological natal chart when possible to expand upon the blueprint that lies in the mythic self.
RAW CHOCOLATE AND VEGAN/GLUTEN FREE TARTES
My love for raw chocolate had me making it and selling it with the name Kali-Ma from 2009. In 2020 I discovered that I could make cakes with a similar raw, organic ethos and now I supply some local shops and cafes. Tartes and chocolate are available to order from me individually.
WILD EARTH DANCE/ECSTATIC DANCE
In 2008 I discovered the exhilaration, healing and liberation that can be gained through ecstatic dance.
I was amazed to experience how powerful it was for personal liberation and release from suffering, and what an important pathway to transformation and healing it can be, one that spirals outwards from our core to the great web of all of life.
The same year, I began a regular meet up of conscious movement in Jersey and found there was a consistently growing call for this movement of transformation on Jersey as people have become more curious to discover and express their true creative selves through trusting the simplicity in the wisdom of the body that comes alive when we put ourselves in motion.
Conscious/Ecstatic dance is a most perfect portal for this and led me to greater depths in self realisation and healing than I believe I could have done without it.
CONSCIOUS ECO LIVING
A few years back I trained to be a facilitator of the ‘Awakening the Dreamer’ Symposium, created by the Pachamama Alliance, whose aim is ‘to bring forth ‘an environmentally sustainable, socially just and spiritually fulfilling presence on our planet.’ This wonderful work which serves to enable people to find their own authentic response to our current global crises was an amazing experience for me and a movement that I wanted to help grow.
I run this as non-profit and Symposiums can be held when requested so please get in contact to arrange.
I believe that the next step for us all, and the only way we are going to survive as a species is if we dare to feel into our own hearts, look at where our true joy lies, pull together our most creative parts of ourselves into community as one, and stand up for what we want- letting go of any beliefs we may have including that each of us can’t make a difference.
My Mother Self and Conscious Parenting
Over the last nearly 7 years my greatest teachings have come through the journey of motherhood and the raw material it offered me for healing of the inner child, my own relationship to my mother and the connection to mother earth. The opportunity of healing our sense of ‘MOTHER’ reaches to every corner of life that we are connected with and is deeply important work to do to help overthrow oppression and the patriarchal dominance in our world.
In 2021 I took the Hand in Hand Parenting Starter Class after reading the book ‘LISTEN’ and drawing on support from first class facilitator, Romas Norriss.
Its been another game changer for me and has supported me to be the parent I most want to be for my child. It is DEEP, transformational and moving work and helpful for ALL ages of children.
Raw Cacao Workshops
I began holding workshops to teach others how to make raw chocolate in 2015 – the workshops are still going strong. If you are on my mailing list you will receive news about them, or if you subscrobe to Quids In.
Natural Body Product Making Classes
These workshops began in 2018 and are still a hit with environmentally conscious and natural health loving people. Keep your eyes open for my next in 2024.
