My story begins over 20 years ago. I was outdoorsy, fit, healthy and active. From the outside I was “fine,” yet I was disconnected from my body, ignorant of my emotions, overly rational, lacking in career direction and insecure. I also had chronic back pain and repeating patterns of depression and feeling lost.

I thought it was just the way I was.
I was lucky enough to get married and have two babies, my lovely boys, who are now young adults. Ill-equipped for this huge shift in life and physiology, that’s when my health nose-dived. After the birth of my second son, I was really low, mentally and physically. I had recurrent chest infections, allergies and suffered from serious asthma. I was exhausted, pouring all my energy into mothering and becoming more depleted. I took lots of medication – and nothing shifted.

I know now that I need to keep my relationship with nature and my senses at the centre of my life, like it was when I was a child, or a Zoology student, following curiosity and wonder.
Far from the complicated rules that so often dictate our health, Ayurveda, this hugely life altering gift, is actually very accessible and flowing. I made simple changes to my way of living, eating and being that stabilised my hormones, my digestion, my respiratory system and my energy. These habits and rituals have given me a foundation of contentment, calm, creativity and confidence that is now my base-line in life.

Now my passion and purpose is to inspire, encourage and support others to develop their own journey of healing. People used to come to me for bodywork or a weekly yoga class, hoping to soothe their ailments. What I offer now is more powerful, more empowering and has better returns. It is about becoming your own self-healer. I rarely work one-on-one now, as I have found that pursuing a growth path while being held in the accountability, trust and connection of a dynamic group is completely life-changing.
