One Place Left on my Hawaiian-style Lomi Lomi Massage Training 🌺🌊

a course I don’t run very often and one that is only open to experienced therapists.

Lomi Lomi is a deeply spiritual and flowing massage modality, rooted in presence, rhythm and connection.
It’s often described as a moving meditation, long, flowing strokes, intuitive touch, and a deep respect for the body as a whole.

This training is ideal for therapists who:
• Already have a solid foundation in bodywork
• Want to deepen their intuitive and energetic practice
• Feel called to work in a more embodied, heart-led way of working

This isn’t about adding “another technique”, it’s about learning a modality that can profoundly shift how you work and feel as a therapist.

✨New for 2026 - Strong Saturdays!✨

I've got some exciting news about a new weekly online class I'm starting on Saturday 21st February

Qigong for Strength ... It'll be a much more challenging class, involving a mix of Qigong, some functional Tai Chi moves, and some strength building Callisthenics like push ups and squats.

There will be adaptations for all levels, so a wall or box push up, or going for it with full push ups if that's your thing - and always the option to not do a move that doesn't feel right for your body.

It's a 45 minute class, beginning at 10.15am £6.
Do let me know if you'd like to give it a go.

✨️ Are you ready to step onto the path of the healer? ✨️

Reiki 1, Initiate Level, is all about self healing...before we can heal others, it's important to heal ourselves.

As the energies and vibrations of the new Earth rise, we will need more healers and energy workers. Do you feel the call?

I have 1 place available on the first Reiki 1 training day of 2026, Saturday 24th January.
Classes are small, only 2 to 4 people max, in the cosy cabin.

If you're ready, message me.

It was an absolute privilege to welcome these lovely ladies from the into the cabin this month to share our cancer care massage training with them.

Everyone who works within the hospice setting does such amazing, heart led work. Having volunteered in hospice myself, I know how invaluable this course is in giving confidence to offer compassionate, loving, therapeutic care for the patients and their families.

What makes our course different is that it's not just about rolling out a standardised samey course, 'learning another routine', or selling / endorsing products... it's about sharing practical skills to the already very qualified and experienced therapists, and aiming the day at exactly what they need to get from it.
❤️ It's about having models who have been through the journey themselves and who are willing and brave enough to openly share their experiences knowing that it will help others ❤️ (a huge thank you to all our models 🙏🏼 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️)

Whether you are a therapist in a private practice, or working within a hospice or hospital setting, this training will deliver practical skills and knowledge to help you support those going through the cancer journey.

Our course is accredited with the FHT. Do message if you're interested in this training, or pop onto the AuroraStar Holistic Therapies & Training website for more info.

So proud to deliver this course yesterday to two amazing therapists..the cancer care massage training is one that is very close to my heart...written by my dear friend and mentor Susan with collaboration and additions (very minor) by me... This course is not 'just another routine'.... It's delivered bespoke, as it's for already established and confident therapists. It aims to give an understanding and practical tools to support clients on their cancer journey...it's tailored so you get what you need for your clients.

This course is also excellent for those who work within hospice organisations (a full body massage qualification and experience is needed before being eligible for this training)

Listed on the FHT's short course website and sited as "one of the most comprehensive cancer care courses" they've seen, I feel what makes it more special is our models...who are carefully chosen because of their own personal experiences with cancer, they give a unique perspective that cannot be found in books and routines! So a huge thank you to our incredible models...you have helped more than you will know ❤️💞

This course is available to learn with us at AuroraStar Holistic Therapies & Training , Angelic Holistics , and The Hygge Hub

Check it out on the website ⬇️

and get in touch with either myself, Sam of AuroraStar or Simone of Angelic Holistics if you're in Bedfordshire, or Chelle of the Hygge Hub if you're in Lancashire if you're ready to elevate your knowledge to the next level.
