Reiki level 2 ✨ About Me

I am a trained and accredited Mindfulness Teacher based in Blackburn, Lancashire, with a professional background in the public sector dating back to 2003. I am also a qualified social worker, bringing a wealth of frontline experience and compassionate understanding to my mindfulness work. Mindfulness Training and Delivery

In 2016, I completed a year-long practitioner training in mindfulness with Youth Mindfulness. This immersive course supported the deepening of my personal practice and encouraged me to explore and transform habitual patterns of thought and behaviour. It also equipped me to deliver mindfulness courses with authenticity, integrity, and compassion. In 2018, I furthered my qualifications by undertaking an externally accredited mindfulness teacher training course with the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB). This qualification allowed me to develop and deliver bespoke mindfulness programmes across a range of settings. I have also trained in children’s mindfulness education and, between 2018 and 2020, worked with over 1,500 children and young people across schools. My work extends to corporate and community settings, supporting individuals of all ages in cultivating present-moment awareness and emotional resilience. My Approach to Mindfulness

Mindfulness invites us to slow down, pause, and respond to life with greater clarity, presence, and open-hearted awareness. It is not a quick fix, but a practice—much like physical exercise—that requires consistency and intention. By learning to be with what is, moment by moment, we begin to shift from habitual reactivity to conscious presence. In today’s fast-paced world, we are often lost in doing—distracted, overthinking, and overwhelmed. Mindfulness helps us reconnect with the present moment, allowing us to experience more joy, ease, and self-compassion, even in the midst of challenge. Scientific research has shown that mindfulness strengthens the grey matter in the prefrontal cortex—an area of the brain responsible for emotional regulation, decision-making, and stress response. With regular practice, we create more space between stimulus and response, enabling us to meet life with greater balance and intention. Additional Therapeutic Tools: NLP & IEMT

In addition to my mindfulness training, I am also trained in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT). These modalities complement mindfulness by offering powerful tools for emotional regulation and change work.
• NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is a method of understanding and reprogramming the mental and emotional patterns we develop throughout life. It explores how our thoughts, language, and behaviours interact, enabling individuals to shift limiting beliefs, improve communication, and develop more resourceful states of mind.
• IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) is a rapid-change modality that works directly with the brain’s neurological processing. It is particularly effective in reducing the emotional impact of distressing memories, patterns of negative self-identity, and limiting emotional responses. IEMT uses guided eye movements to support the brain in reprocessing stuck emotional states without the need for detailed verbal disclosure. Together, mindfulness, NLP, and IEMT offer a comprehensive and integrative approach to emotional well-being, helping individuals reconnect with themselves, release old patterns, and live with greater freedom and authenticity.

Mindfulness 🙏🏻🧘🏼‍♀️

We learn to reconnect to our body, our nervous system, our highs and our lows.

We notice what holds us and what we can now release.

Externally - we start to see the world around as if for the first time.
Externally - we connect more deeply with the people around us.
Externally - we arrive without distraction

Internally - we notice our thoughts.
Internally - we connect to our body.
Internally - we soften in places we hold tension
Internally - we relax

Outcome - happier, lighter, focused, calm, improved resilience, acceptance…

Mindfulness is more than just the mind. 🙏🏻

I have been lucky enough to observe profound shifts for people who embrace my course. I have also been privileged to meet and work with the most wonderful human beings…🙏🏻

I want to say thank you to the hundreds of people who have attended my courses, adults and young people alike. 🙏🏻

Be the silent watcher of your thoughts and behaviour.
You are beneath the thinker.
You are the stillness beneath the mental noise.
You are the love and joy beneath the pain.
- Eckhart Tolle

🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏼‍♂️

It doesn’t have to be perfect; it just needs to be intentional.

Just one minute of stillness can shift your energy, calm your heart, and reconnect you to the stillness that lies within.

Meditation can be as short as my 16 Seconds exercise:

1️⃣ Inhale for a count of four
2️⃣ Hold for four
3️⃣ Exhale for four
4️⃣ Hold for four

Pause right here and now, close your eyes and try the 16 Seconds exercise - it creates instant calm! 😌 Do it four times in a row, and that’s one minute of meditation you’ve just accomplished.

How long we meditate for doesn’t matter - what matters is that we do it - tag someone below who you’d like to meditate with!

Our Story

Sprouting Mindfulness has now been in operation since 2017. We have successfully delivered Mindfulness sessions to over a 1000 children in BWD and Lancashire. We are currently prepping for next years school based sessions, which are going to be just beautiful.

Adult sessions have been delivered to school staff, council staff and we have run community based classes.

We have now partnered with Fusion Well-Being Services and Shone Coaching to reach a higher percentage of individuals from the local area.

So why Mindfulness?

Mindfulness is way of living, that when adopted can free your mind form the clutches of habitual responses and reactions in day to day life. Mindfulness is a way of seeing that is done in a way that is awake and alive to this precious moment. We often become lost in our thoughts and judgements which then create feelings of dislike and aversion. Or we can become so lost in wanting things to be a certain way, our striving for certain ideals, makes us sick and stressed from wishing and wanting. But when we take the time to be still, when we are able to observe our thoughts, feelings and emotions as an onlooker, rather than being attached to the moment of experience as it being solid and true. We can set ourselves free.

This freedom is a life long process and this is why Mindfulness is a practice. We take the time daily to sit and be still. To practice again and again coming back to our breath. You wouldn’t leave the house without cleaning your teeth, so why would you not clear your mind?

SLOWING DOWN TO SPEED UP

I have heard may people explain ‘I don’t have time to sit and be still’, but actually in my experience in we slow down we speed up. By clearing the mind we are effective creating space. Space, which provides us with the clarity and vision to make informed and clear decisions. When have lot’s of things swirling round our mind, it becomes too busy and we end up attempting to multi-task. Multi-Tasking, for me usually means I have a deadline, or I am rushing to get things done. This in itself turns into a moment, day or week of stress and rushing.

Mindfulness supports relationships and while it may seem selfish to sit and take care of your self, in actually impacts everyone you come into contact with.

Children I have taught, love learning and being Mindful, adults embrace the courses and I have even changed the minds of many sceptics.

Mindfulness has concepts and theory. but the real learning comes from the experience. The doing of being! After all we are human beings, not human doings! May you be Happy, May you be Well and May you leave with Ease
