1.
Welcome
I am a qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and Clinical Aromatherapist, based in St George, Bristol. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a modern approach combining psychotherapy with hypnosis. I use practical, structured, and well-researched strategies to help you make positive changes in your life in a relatively short period of time.

Transition into Autumn ⛅️
When the Sun moves into Libra at the autumn equinox, I always feel reflective as I circle another solar new year- I'm a Librian! I find it natural to seek rituals that mirror this seasonal shift.
Essential oils play a gentle but meaningful role in supporting that transition. Essential oils 🍂for the season include
🍂 Earthy, grounding oils such as cedarwood, patchouli, vetiver and frankincense.
🍊 Bright, sweetness to light up the darker days? Grapefruit essential oil is an absolute , joyful favourite. Also, sweet orange, mandarin and bergamot
🍂 Evoking comfort and warmth may be essential oils of cinnamon, cardamon, black pepper and clove.
🍂 Autumn Equinox Diffuser Blend 🍂
* 3 drops cedarwood (grounding, woody)
* 2 drops sweet orange (uplifting, fresh)
* 1 drop clove (warm, spicy)
Add the oils to your diffuser with the recommended amount of water.
Can I blend this for you?
5ml £6.50
10ml £12.

Safety: Do not ingest. For a topical blend consult your aromatherapist for advice. Keep away from children and pets. Please consult a qualified aromatherapist id you are pregnant or unwell. Please read the safety instructions that come with your oils.

SUNDAY SOAKS 🍂
🍂Sunday Soaks are small group sessions and a gentle invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect. Sunday Soaks are for you if you find it hard to rest within the every day hustle and bustle and want to reset for a positive week ahead.
🍂 Drawing on my experience as a hypnotherapist, you are gently encouraged into restful state where your mind can let go of everyday tension. Using gentle prompts, you are guided towards your own inner wisdom and wellness.
🍂Sunday Soaks connect us to the changings seasons. Out next Soak: Harvest Moon encourages seasonal reflection and the setting of intentions for the season to come.
🍂 Why Footbaths?
We often enjoy a foot bath at the Sunday Soak, using individual footbaths (provided). The combination of warm water, gentle aromas (like lavender or chamomile), and a quiet pause can activate the parasympathetic nervous system—the “rest and digest” response—helping you feel calmer and less anxious.
🍂 Create
Sunday Soaks are completed with a simple creative session where I guide you to create with the essentials oils, herbs and plants of the season. You creation is yours to take home for continued self care.
Lime, in September? 🌿🍂
🌿 In many regions, limes reach peak harvest in late summer into early autumn.
🌿 Lime resonates with September, a transition month between summer abundance and autumn’s grounded energy.
🌿 Lime communicates energy, vitality, and a forward-moving momentum
🌿 Historically, people would harvest and preserve citrus (drying, candying, pickling) around this time of year to prepare for winter.
At our Sunday Soak: Sun Essence, Light and Flow, we created 2 beautiful 'water energy' essential oil blends for the home, alter or inhalation stick.
River Bank 🌿💦
A fresh, floral, and gently uplifting blend with a cooling, flowing energy — perfect for feeling connected to water’s serene power and grace.
Havenstone 🌿💦
Evokes a sense of restful waters held in the earth, like an underground spring.
Would you like me to create these for you?
💦 1 x 5ml dropper bottle of either blend, £8.50
💦 1 x 10 ml dropper bottle of either blend £16.
Your blends will come with instructions for safe usage of essential oil.

Brown Bottles 🍃
🍃 In my aromatherapy blending room, I always use brown glass bottles to store and preserve my essential oils and blends. These precious oils are incredibly sensitive to light, especially UV rays, which can quickly degrade their quality and therapeutic benefits.
🍃 The amber-coloured glass acts as a natural filter, protecting the oils from harmful light in the room and extending the life of my oils—keeping their scent vibrant and their properties potent, which is essential when I’m creating custom blends for clients or personal rituals.
🍃 I now have a limited stock of bottles available - great if you want to get creative with your oils.
🍃 Starter Box 🍃 £6.90 or add a 'Little book of Essential Oils' £10.
1 x 100ml spray top,
1 x 30ml dropper bottle
1 x screw top bottle
1 x mason measuring jar
3 x 10 ml dropper bottles.
1 x inhalation stick with instructions
1 x note book - always record your 'recipes' and blends.
I can adapt this to your needs, just ask.
