🐢The Turtle Theory 🐢

The Turtle Theory reminds us that healing doesn’t need to be rushed, a turtle moves slowly and only comes out of its shell when it feels safe. Emotional healing also happens at its own pace. When life has felt overwhelming, unpredictable, or unsafe, our nervous system learns to protect us by slowing things down, pulling inward, and observing before taking the next step 👣

At The Healing Nest, we believe that slow progress is still progress 🫶🏻

Many people come to counselling feeling frustrated with themselves, wanting to “be better” quickly or comparing their healing journey to others - The Turtle Theory gently challenges this by reminding us that safety comes before change. When we move too fast, the nervous system may retreat further into its shell 🐚

Counselling at The Healing Nest is intentionally paced, we work together in patience, allowing trust to build naturally, emotions to surface when they’re ready, and confidence to grow one small step at a time ❤️

Be patient with yourself & your journey 🙏

For any counselling enquiries, please give me a message 💌❤️

Hormones don’t work in isolation💘

And balance isn’t about doing more 🍃 it’s about supporting the systems that allow them to work properly 🫶🏻

When lymph flow becomes sluggish, inflammation can build, stress hormones stay elevated, fluid lingers… and hormones struggle to communicate effectively 🐌

Supporting healthy lymphatic flow can help:
✓ Reduce bloating & water retention
✓ Calm the stress response
✓ Support clearer hormone signalling

Support the flow. Support your hormones 🧬

❌ Key Benefits of Combining Red Light Therapy with Lymphatic Drainage Massage ❌

🌿 Enhanced Lymphatic Flow
Red and near-infrared light help warm tissues and gently stimulate circulation. This can make lymph fluid move more freely, supporting the body’s natural detox pathways and improving the effectiveness of the massage 🫶🏻

🌿 Reduced Inflammation & Swelling
Red light therapy has well-documented anti-inflammatory effects. When used with lymphatic drainage, it can help reduce fluid retention, puffiness, and inflammatory responses more efficiently 👌

🌿 Cellular Repair & Healing
Red light penetrates the skin to stimulate mitochondria (ATP production), supporting tissue repair and regeneration. This is especially beneficial post-surgery, after illness, or for clients with chronic fatigue, pain, or sluggish lymph systems 🤝

🌿 Improved Circulation Without Over-Stimulating
Unlike deep tissue massage, lymphatic drainage is gentle. Red light therapy complements this by increasing microcirculation without stressing the cardiovascular system—ideal for sensitive or depleted clients 👏🏻

🌿 Nervous System Regulation & Deep Relaxation
Red light therapy supports parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activation. Combined with the slow, rhythmic nature of lymphatic massage, clients often experience profound relaxation, emotional release, and improved sleep afterward 🙏

🌿 Skin Health & Glow
Improved lymph flow plus collagen-stimulating red light can enhance skin tone, clarity, and elasticity - an added benefit many clients love 👌

🌿 Pain Relief & Muscle Ease
For clients holding tension or experiencing chronic discomfort, red light can reduce pain signals and muscle stiffness, allowing the lymphatic work to feel even more soothing 💪🏼

Before The Healing Nest I had a Cleaning Business & before that, I was a dental nurse so you can always rely on me having a clean, sterile environment 🥰

Also, I just really f**king love cleaning 🧼

What is Attachment theory & why it matters in adult relationships ❤️

The way we connect in our adult relationships often has roots far earlier than we realise 👧🏼

Attachment theory explains how our early experiences with caregivers shape the way we relate to others later in life, especially in close, emotional relationships ❤️

As adults, this can show up as:
• 💞 Feeling secure with closeness and independence
• 😟 Fear of abandonment or needing constant reassurance
• 🚪 Pulling away when things feel too intimate
• ⚖️ Wanting connection but feeling unsure how to maintain it

None of these patterns mean something is “wrong” with you. They are learned responses – often formed to help you feel safe at a time when you had little control.

The important part? Attachment styles are not fixed.
With awareness, compassion, and support, we can develop more secure ways of relating – to partners, friends, family, and even ourselves.

Healing begins when we understand why we react the way we do, rather than judging ourselves for it.

At The Healing Nest, we create a safe, nurturing space to explore these patterns gently and at your own pace 🌿

✨ Awareness leads to choice
✨ Choice leads to change
✨ Change leads to healthier, more fulfilling connections
