About Me and Links
I have been training in spirituality, inner work, shadow work, healing, and meditation for 25 years. I have spent about a year and a half on retreat, and I entered the process of awakening in 2017. I was introduced to reiki in 2004, and shamanic practices in 2005 through working for Buddhafield, and combining buddhism, shamanism and healing has been a beautiful and interesting path.
My presence is calming, loving, and unrufflable, and my female clients without exception felt safe and held by me. I have experience working in retreat centres, buddhist centres, and five years experience as a mental health professional in forensic mental health, with lots of training including first aid and mental health first aid, motivational interviewing, meditation teaching, and working with some of the. most damaged and high risk men in society.
I am in recovery, and have been since 2001, which has been an amazing and beautiful journey blessing me with so much wisdom I can now pass on as I studied spirituality and wellbeing as my life life did depend on it.
Due to decades of exposure to shadow work and trauma, I am perfectly at ease with the depths of rage, pain, grief, and trauma that can be released in breathwork sessions. I have plumbed the depths and released so much myself, that I can be present and non-judgmental, even encouraging, with the power and noise of real emotional release. I find emotional release to be so cleansing, as like many of us, I learned to hide and bottle things up, and when I first had the opportunity to try breathwork and emotional release, through sounding and through my anger I found my way to the deep hurt and wounding underneath it.

If you need counsel, guidance and coaching in meditation, in liberation from mind-made suffering and anxiety, I can help you. If you need help releasing stuck energy, emotion or trauma, or need relaxing bodywork and energy healing, I can help you.
I have always been deeply sensitive, intuitive, kind, and 25 years of loving kindness meditation have only brightened a heart that was wounded in early life, and brought me to this path of healing and awakening.
I am an ex classical musician, and still play the cello and produce music and meditations. I was a raver in the early nineties, and love to dance several times a week. I hold regular shamanic trance dance rituals in Bristol. I love being in nature, surfing, wild swimming, walking, snowboarding, painting, and am a prolific writer.
