About Me
I began working as a Reiki Practitioner in 2012 after completing Usui/Tibetan Reiki at practitioner level. I then went on to complete a two year diploma in Crystal Healing Therapy which I am able to incorporate with the practice of Reiki to give an even greater healing experience.
I keep my own body, mind and spirit healthy by practicing daily meditation and yoga which I am also qualified to teach, and I eat a strict healthy all plant based diet. I feel it's very important to maintain my own health and wellness in order to be of service to others.
I believe its my own healing journey and life experiences that have given me my greatest assets as a spiritual teacher and healer.
If you would like to know about my own healing and spiritual journey and what bought me to this point please continue to read.

My Philosophy
I am a firm believer that healing begins from within. There is an ancient saying, "As within, so without", meaning that our world is a reflection of what we think, believe and are feeling inside. If we are in a constant state of negative thinking, those thoughts draw negativity to us and create situations that are stressful. High levels of stress can create many health problems and illnesses. In order to create better physical, mental and spiritual health we need to create a better life, in order to create a better life, we first need to heal our negative thoughts, beliefs and emotions. Once we can master this the Universe responds accordingly and life begins to flow with more ease, drawing to us situations and opportunities that bring us happiness and fulfilment. It is in this state of being that optimum health and well-being can be achieved.
My Journey
Around 14 years ago I had Crystal Healing to help with fertility issues I was experiencing. A friend introduced me to a lady who practiced this healing technique as well as past life regression and psychic work. She helped me through a difficult time and using her natural gifts as a healer, I successfully conceived a beautiful healthy daughter. Words could never describe the gratitude I felt for what she had done for me, I felt incredibly blessed and it inspired me to pursue my own spiritual calling. I've always been an intuitive empath but had never really understood what it was I was experiencing. I struggled through most of my teenage years with severe anxiety related metal health issues including OCD and Bulimia. My wellbeing was never addressed and I had to work through my illness alone. It wasn't until I began opening up to spirituality in my late 20's that my mental health began to significantly improve.
​
I began my journey by joining a spiritual development group which I attended for over four years. I learned to understand and work with my own psyche and that of spirit. I took classes and workshops in psychic development and mediumship and read many spiritual books to broaden my understanding and knowledge of spirituality. By 2012 I had completed Reiki first and second degree and three years later I enrolled on a two year crystal healing course and learned how to work in harmony with nature by using the powerful energy of crystals.
​
Those years of development were drawing me closer to my higher path and purpose, but there were aspects of my life which I was holding onto that were no longer serving me and were blocking my progression forwards. My reluctance to let them go or even identify them meant my higher-self had to work closely with the Universe to synchronise events that would move me forward to what I now know to be my true Soul purpose in this lifetime. What I thought at the time was merely a life crisis was actually a very intense spiritual awakening with Kundalini rising.
​
This awakening began in 2018 after things took a very unexpected turn. My life had become very emotionally stressful up to that point and I'd been through some deep trauma. I had lost my father to a physically and mentally debilitating illness which he painfully endured for many years. I spent the last week of his life sat day and night by his hospital bed, watching him slowly die. Seeing him suffer in this way had left me with some very traumatic memories of his last days, and his passing had taken its toll on my emotions, but at the time I had locked away my grief in order to support my mother and the rest of my family. So when it finally did catch up on me it hit me hard and I was diagnosed with clinical depression with symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. I had counselling and did my best to use my knowledge of natural healing to help myself. Within 10 months following my initial diagnosis I had left my husband and moved out of our family home to start over in a new area with my two children. In the months that followed I began to release old friendships, habits and belief that I came to realise where unhealthy for me and I worked hard on healing myself. I worked closely with my guides in the spirit world and the Angelic realms and followed their guidance without question. I learned how to completely trust in them and in myself. I believe that sometimes it takes a hugely challenging life event to wake up the Soul and I now know that what I went through helped me to recognise what I needed to change in my life and what needed to be released for my highest good.
​
The energy of Kundalini rising though your spine and passing through each of the chakras can be incredibly painful and traumatic as old negative beliefs, patterns and traumas from all lifetimes are bought to the surface to be released. If we fight the process out of fear or we simply don't understand what is happening it can be very debilitating and often people mistake it for anxiety or other mental health illnesses. I meditated every day and was guided to tools and information that would help the process. I used techniques to clear my energetic system and release past life trauma as well as trauma which I had accumulated in my energy from this life. The release work I did was incredibly hard and I would spend days crying uncontrollably and having intense pain in my heart chakra. I also had sudden moments of being physically sick after working on the lower chakras and there would be days of having painful headaches, head pressure or feeling disorientated as the energy was pushed up for release. I experienced pain in my lower back and hips as I began to let go of my emotional baggage and I felt at times my whole body was vibrating from the core. Some days I just felt like I no longer belonged on this earth, I felt I lost all sense of purpose or belonging and I just wanted to go 'home'. These symptoms would pass as quickly as they came but it was exhausting work and as I worked through releasing old wounds the symptoms would become less frequent and intense. It bought up many childhood issues I had locked away and I began to see past life traumas in dreams and mediation. I worked on past life contracts by visiting the Akashic records through mediation and discovered those with whom I had soul contracts with that were no longer serving me. I was guided to ways of dealing with those contracts and releasing them. I was also made aware by spirit that I needed to clear ancestral karma which I successfully did with their help and guidance.
​
As my self-healing progressed I began to become more intuitive than ever before and I found myself just 'knowing' what to do next. My guides have been with me every step of the way but I have become much less reliant on them and more in tune with the wisdom of my own soul.
​
I have learned a great deal from my journey and I finally feel in a place of inner peace and security. My soul is still working towards the ultimate goal but I am now heading along the path to fulfilment. It is my wish to pass on the knowledge I have gained through my own experiences in the hope that it will guide others and help them along their own healing journey.
​
Love, light and blessings.
