Need a health MOT?

If you are in need of support with your health and wellbeing, I am here to help.

A Reflexology treatment will help to boost your immune system, ease aches and pains, relax and calm your mind helping you feel centred and present and in your body, balance hormonal issues and improve sleep. It can also help to regulate a dysregulated nervous system. I can also support you in interpreting what your body is trying to communicate if you are experiencing discomfort in certain areas of your body or specific health issues and offer advice to help restore the balance.

I would love to welcome you to my Healing Sanctuary Therapy space to relax, recharge and restore balance.

My 10 year old has been struggling the past few nights waking up at night and being unable to get back to sleep easily. I didn't realise the affect it was having on her until she burst into tears at the dinner table over it.

So the past couple nights I rubbed her feet with lavender oil and put the diffuser on in her room with lavender, wild orange and valerian (I use dōTERRA oils).

This morning she got up around 7am and came in excitedly to tell me she slept through without waking up. I could see the relief and joy in her simply having a good night's sleep.

Sleep is so important for us.

✨️ It is vital for healing and giving the body a break to repair and rest.
✨️ It is essential for growth, especially in children.
✨️ It resets our nervous system and consolidates memories and experiences, thus helping if you struggle with anxiety and a dysregulated nervous system.
✨️ Certain hormones are produced while we sleep eg. Thyroid hormone which regulates your metabolism
✨️ It's strengthens your immune system and supports heart health.

As an adult, getting to bed before 10h30pm helps to give your liver time to rest and repair. Insomnia can occur if you go to bed after 11pm as you get a second wind making it difficult to fall asleep.

If this is something struggle with, try creating time before bed to wind down. Get off screens, read a book, listen to a guided meditation, do some bedtime yoga, use an essential oil like lavender or wild orange that promotes sleep and relaxation. Also try going to bed earlier to make sure you are getting enough sleep. You shouldn't feel exhausted in the morning.

Reflexology is a wonderful therapy that helps to regulate the nervous system and promotes relaxation. Reach out to me if you need some help. I can support with lifestyle recommendations and an in person treatment.

How do you feel when your alarm goes off in the morning?

Happy New Year! I feel like I'm still easing into the year after getting kids back into college and starting home ed.

Thought I would recap on what I offer in case you are in need of holistic health support as I would love to support you.

I have 20 years experience as a Therapeutic Reflexologist and Meridian Practitioner. I am also studying Nutrition and Naturopathy through CNM, which is a long time dream coming to fruition.

I work holistically looking at the whole picture and not just symptoms. I use the Chinese Meridians and Elements as an extra assessment tool to restore balance and flow to the body's energy pathways. When balance is restored, symptoms usually ease and disappear.

If you're experiencing:

~ Fatigue/exhaustion
~ Burn out
~ Digestive discomfort
~ Stress/anxiety
~ Back pain/tension
~ Headaches
~ Insomnia
~ Low immunity (getting everything that goes around)

I may be able to help. Reach out if you would like to have a chat or book an appointment.

It's been a while since I've been in this space. This year has been a rather tumultuous one, resulting in me pulling back to focus on inner healing and keeping my head above water as I navigated my personal challenges and held space for my daughter, getting through GCSE's and starting college with severe anxiety. I have pushed through and kept going, even when I had nothing left.

This year has brought some of the most painful experiences I have ever had to go through, but they were necessary for my growth. We learn and grow the most through difficult experiences.

Today, on the 11:11 portal, I had a rare morning alone at home as both kids were out and I had plans for what I was going to do in that time. The Universe however had other plans and I am so grateful that I listened.

I woke up with zero energy and didn't feel right. I really wanted to get some work done while I had some quiet space, but my Intuition was strongly telling me to STOP. To STOP pushing and to Surrender and Allow. I decided to listen and am so grateful I did.

Instead, I made myself a cacao, anchored myself with Bergamot essential oil, did a card reading and did an activation breathing meditation from , which was so powerful. It brought me back to my centre and my body. I could feel my cells vibrating with energy and resetting me.

It also unlocked my creativity and allowed me to map out something I wanted to create. All thanks to following my Inner guidance instead of doing what I thought I should be doing.

The moral of this story ....

Pay attention to how you feel and trust the guidance that is whispering to you. Trust and Allow. Release control and watch what manifests.

Sending you love and light on this powerful day.

DISCOVER THE POWER OF PLANT MEDICINE 🌱

I have used essential oils for decades to support my family and my clients and have always loved the power of natures medicine. A few years ago I met Emily Mascarenhas and was introduced to dōTERRA essential oils at a workshop she held. I brought the Home essentials kit, which contains the 10 core essential oils to support pretty much anything. I was blown away with how powerful these oils are compared to what I had used previously.

As they are genuinely 100% pure, tested, therapeutic grade oils, you usually only need 1 or 2 drops depending on what you are using them for so they do last a lot longer and are a lot more powerful that what you may be using.

These oils are now our medicine cabinet and everyone in my family now turns to them for support with their health and wellbeing. Even my 19 year old, who used to think I was really weird with all my lotions and potions and 'natural remedies' comes to me for oil recommendations when she isn't feeling well or is struggling with painful periods, because they work.

There are a couple of oil classes being held this week, which I thought I would share, in case you are interested in learning more about how these oils can support you and your families as we head into the cooler months. They can be used on babies all the way through to the elderly, the dilution just varies.

My story

My journey on the path of natural health and wellness began when I was 21 having ended up bed ridden for a week without the energy to lift my head or get up. I was eventually diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and became extremely sensitive to the effect of allopathic medication.

Back then I was constantly stressed, lived in the fast lane, pushed myself beyond my limits, constantly striving for perfection, not too concerned with diet but more with convenience. I look back at this illness and the tough times I went through and am grateful for the learning and the understanding that I have gained from it. I experienced the effect of depression and the side effects of anti-depressants, the effect of systemic Candida and having to cut almost everything out of my diet so my body could heal. Wanting to try and stay in control, I wanted to push on but my body wanted to rest. It was only when I stopped fighting with myself and once I realised that I had the power to change the way I thought and how I felt that I was able to turn things around and to start healing. I took responsibility for my own health.

During my illness, Reflexology was hugely beneficial offering me time for myself to just Be and helping my body on its journey back to health. In 2003, I had a feeling to just let go and that everything would be alright. I resigned from my job, not knowing what I was going to do but knew that I needed a break from corporate life. I felt a weight come off my shoulders and felt totally at peace.

As soon as I let go and trusted my life fell into place, I met my husband and decided that I needed to study Reflexology so that I could help others. I am truly passionate about Reflexology and the benefits that it offers. I started a 2 year diploma in South Africa in Reflexology and Meridian Therapy with Inge Dougans in 2004 and qualified at the end of 2005 Cum Laude (top 3) and started my practise straight away. Using the Chinese Meridians and Elements as an assessment tool is invaluable in getting to the cause of the imbalance, the symptoms are merely warning signals that the body is out of balance.
