🌿✨ Kambo Case Study Ceremonies – Open Invitation ✨🌿

As part of my practitioner training, I am opening case study spaces in North Cornwall for those who feel called to receive the sacred Amazonian medicine of Kambo.

I am looking for 8 souls who feel called to sit with this warrior medicine – bookings are open now.

🌱 What is Kambo?

Kambo is the secretion of the giant monkey frog (Phyllomedusa Bicolor), traditionally used by Amazonian tribes for cleansing, strengthening, and restoring balance. The medicine is applied through small points on the skin, where it enters the lymphatic system to support a powerful physical, emotional, and energetic reset.
The medicine I use is ethically sourced with reverence for this beloved being and only from trusted individuals who work closely with the indigenous communities to ensure these beautiful frogs are protected and cared for – I DO NOT support individuals who overharvest, collect at the wrong times, who don’t work with the indigenous communities and who don’t show reverence for this sacred ally.

🌱 What to Expect

Each ceremony is a deep purification process. You may experience:

• Intense detoxification through purging, sweating, or shaking.
• Emotional or energetic release
• A sense of clarity, renewal, and grounding afterwards

Please allow up to 5 hours for your ceremony to honour the process fully.

✨ What to Expect in Ceremony ✨

A Kambo ceremony lasts around 4 hours, held with care and intention in a safe, supportive container. Together, we move through:

🌟 Arrival & Settling — creating a calm space to arrive, ground, and prepare.
👩‍⚕️ Consultation, Health Screening & Diagnostics — ensuring your safety, discussing your health background, and clarifying your intentions so the medicine can work in the best way for you.
🧚‍♀️ Opening Ceremony — calling in the spirits, ancestors, and allies to hold us.
🪴 Limpia Cleanses & Sananga — clearing the field and opening the senses before Kambo is applied.
🐸 Kambo Application — the medicine is applied through small points on the skin. I hold space with close support, presence, and care as the medicine works through you.
🌿 Shamanic Healing & Supporting Medicines — where guided, I may bring in song, sound, smoke, or other sacred medicines to support your process.
🙏 Closing Ceremony — bringing gratitude, grounding, and sealing the work.
🥣 Nourishment & Integration — a warm soup is shared afterwards, and space is given for reflection, grounding, and integration support.

✨ A Note on Safety & Suitability ✨

Kambo is a strong and profound medicine. It is not for everyone, and it is important that it is approached with respect and readiness. Before working with Kambo, I carry out a full health screening to make sure this medicine is safe and supportive for you. Your wellbeing is always my priority, and the ceremony is held in a way that ensures you feel supported, cared for, and guided throughout your experience.

🌱 Preparation

Participants must arrive fasted for at least 12 hours prior to the ceremony (no food; water is fine). This is essential for safety and for receiving the full benefits of the medicine.

🌱 Offering

As these are training case studies, ceremonies are offered by donation in exchange for your presence and participation.

🌱 Current Availability
• Mon – Friday (sessions start at 10am)
• Select weekends also available (sessions start 10am)

If you feel called to receive Kambo and walk this path of cleansing and renewal with me in North Cornwall, please reach out to reserve your space.

I am also mobile and able to travel a reasonable distance to you (dependant on suitability of venue plus travel costs)

✨ For 20 years I’ve been a yoga purist. So why am I teaching Yogalates now?

Here’s my story…

✨ Why I’ve Chosen Yogalates ✨

As many of you know, I’ve been practicing and teaching yoga for over 20 years. ✨ I’ve always been something of a yoga purist, drawn to its depth and authenticity rather than the gimmicks, trends or quick fixes. — I am deeply devoted to yoga in its truest form. But funnily enough, my journey — like Joseph Pilates’ — began much earlier, and was shaped as much by challenge as by discipline 🫡

Like him, I was a sickly child, struggling with asthma and respiratory issues. That experience set me on a path of building my health, strength, and resilience — and it drew me toward Eastern philosophy and the powerful connection between mind, body, and breath 🧘‍♀️ My dad, a sportsman, gymnast, and Physical Training Instructor in the military, was the first to show me what movement and discipline could do for the body and the mind. He planted the seeds of my lifelong love for both strength and mindful practice 🤸‍♀️

🌿 What happens when a lifelong yogi who grew up in the military gym decides to mix mindfulness with muscle? Yogalates!

From a young age, I was always moving — discovering Pilates through dance, strengthening breath and body through swimming, learning martial arts for strength and focus, and finding my spiritual and physical anchor in yoga 💃 And when I started teaching, it felt only natural that my very first students were soldiers, helping them in their training and rehabilitation. In many ways, this work has always been in my blood 💂‍♀️

I started by becoming a swimming teacher with the military and then onto teaching Yoga – being in this environment really inspired me to really honour and respect my body and its capabilities and to also understand my limits, although I have been known to push those at times! 🏊‍♀️

Now, my body has changed and my needs have shifted, needing to focus on maintaining strength and healthy joints and bones as I age and approach menopause and managing a chronic condition, I’ve found such joy in bringing all of this together. 🥰

Yogalates has given me a way to merge mindfulness, meditation, and philosophy of yoga with the strength, stability, and conditioning of resistance-based training — and I’ve been lucky enough to train with a wonderful teacher whose who’s respect for the tradition of Yoga encouraged me to explore bringing Pilates into the practice, whilst still honouring what Yoga is really about, as a practice to bring stillness to the mind.

It’s yoga at heart❤️rooted in philosophy, meditation, and mindfulness — but blended with strength, conditioning, and resistance training to help us stay balanced, strong, and supple at every stage of life.

With bands, weights, balls, or simply our own bodyweight, Yogalates lets us:

💪 Build strength and stability
🧘‍♀️ Improve mobility and flexibility
🧠 Nurture the mind through breath and focus – using mindfulness based approaches.

💪🧘‍♀️ I’ve always loved yoga… and I’ve always loved strength training. Yogalates is where the two finally meet.

For me, this is still yoga — it honours the eight limbs, the meditation, the stillness — but it also acknowledges how important it is to keep our bodies strong as we move through life. And knowing Joseph Pilates himself drew inspiration from yoga when developing his method for soldiers after World War I makes this practice feel even more aligned with my own journey and military roots.☯️

✨ Strong body, calm mind — why choose when you can have both?

So here I am, after years of practice and training, excited to share Yogalates with you — a practice that unites my two great loves: the strength and discipline I grew up with, and the mindfulness and philosophy that have always guided me.

✨ I’d love for you to join me on the mat and experience this beautiful blend for yourself. ✨

💫 Yoga for the soul, Pilates for the body — Yogalates for the whole of you.

I have only a few spaces left for my Yogalates for Beginners course, starting next week - if you'd like to join me on this journey I would love to hear from you!! Tickets are available on my booking site

https://bookwhen.com/embodhiwellbeing

This is a six week course that introduces you to the basics and builds each week, with a view to this becoming an ongoing class. Whilst this is on a block booking basis - should there be spaces available, I am happy to open up on a drop-in basis - pop me a message!

I look forward to seeing you there!!

• Gentle meditation practices to support emotional balance, focus, and restful sleep. • Improved strength, balance, and endurance through mindful postures.

✨ Together, Yogalates leaves you feeling stronger, calmer, more balanced, and energised — a holistic boost for both body and mind.
