A civil celebrant offering bespoke and truly personal ceremonies for all occasions in life
Get your mind, body & spirit in harmony. And I just love it.
Reiki, Sound Healing, Angel Cards, Indian Head Massage and removing emotions, thoughts and pain that no longer serve you. Sometimes you just know when your chosen career is right for you. And I have found the perfect blend as a celebrant and wellbeing practitioner. So why did I choose to be The Holistic Celebrant? I attended a family ceremony where I felt the content was more about the vicar’s bel
iefs than the people involved, and some details quoted were incorrect. This really didn’t feel to be personal. I came away from this ceremony thinking “I could have done a much better job”
Coming from a corporate and charity background and being involved with amateur theatre for many years, I am completely at ease standing in front of people and speaking. So, I completed my training with an industry leading provider Civil Ceremonies Ltd and became qualified to develop and deliver bespoke weddings, partnerships, namings and funerals. What could be more rewarding than engaging with your clients to deliver something so personal and special. No two ceremonies are ever alike. As a wellbeing practitioner, NLP Master Practitioner, Reiki Master and Indian Head Massage therapist, I regularly use my toolbox of techniques and therapies to support people to be the best they can be. As Maya Angelou said “If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude” I work with my clients to help them to be the best version of themselves and to bring about balance of mind, body and spirit.

🌟 Reiki: The Ancient Healing Art That Can Transform Your Life 🌟
Have you ever felt drained, stressed, or out of balance—like your energy is just off? What if there was a natural, gentle way to restore harmony in your body, mind, and spirit? Enter Reiki, a centuries-old Japanese healing technique that taps into universal life force energy to promote deep relaxation, emotional clarity, and physical well-being.
What Can Reiki Do for You?
🔹 Reduce Stress & Anxiety – Reiki activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping the body release tension and enter a state of deep relaxation. Say goodbye to overwhelm!
🔹 Boost Energy & Vitality – Feeling sluggish? Reiki clears energy blockages, allowing your natural vitality to flow freely. Many people report feeling lighter and more energized after sessions.
🔹 Accelerate Healing – Whether recovering from illness, injury, or emotional trauma, Reiki supports the body’s natural healing processes by restoring balance on a cellular level.
🔹 Enhance Mental Clarity & Focus – Stuck in a mental fog? Reiki helps quiet the mind, making it easier to think clearly, make decisions, and stay present.
🔹 Release Emotional Blockages – Past traumas and suppressed emotions can get stuck in our energy field. Reiki gently dissolves these blockages, fostering emotional release and inner peace.
🔹 Improve Sleep & Relaxation – Struggling with insomnia? Reiki’s calming effects can help you unwind, leading to deeper, more restorative sleep.
🔹 Strengthen Intuition & Spiritual Growth – Many Reiki practitioners report heightened intuition and a stronger connection to their inner wisdom. It’s like a spiritual tune-up!
But Does It Really Work? 🤔
Science is catching up! Studies have shown Reiki can:
✅ Lower cortisol (the stress hormone)
✅ Reduce pain and fatigue in chronic illness patients
✅ Improve mood and overall quality of life
Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, one thing’s for sure: Reiki feels amazing. It’s like a warm, soothing hug for your soul.
Ready to Try It? 🙌
You don’t need to be "spiritual" to benefit—just open-minded! Reiki is safe, non-invasive, and works alongside traditional medicine. Many people feel shifts after just one session.

A little time for you to reset yourself, to breathe and reconnect with your inner self.

Time out is really important for everyone.
Whether you feel stressed or not, if you are just focussed on doing something all the time, then your brain never really calms down.
I have been doing meditations every day that focus on NOTHING or NO THING and it is amazing the effect this has been having on my day to day activities. I am more focussed and more productive despite doing less.
Allow yourself time to walk, to meditate, to sit and breath, listen to some relaxing music or meditate and notice the difference this can have for you.
If you would like some help switching your brain off either with mindfulness or even to refocus your brain with NLP then give me a shout.

Your Voice is Medicine
Your voice isn't just for speaking — it's a powerful healing tool. Whether through humming, chanting, singing, or simply conscious breathing with sound, the vibrations of your voice can soothe your nervous system, open your heart, and reconnect you to your inner truth.
Use your voice today — not to perform, but to feel. Let it move through you. Let it heal you. 💙

This Friday I look forward to welcoming you to my Gong and Healing Sounds session.
Sound is one of the universal sounds that has an amazing ability to reset your body. Everyone will have a different experience and it is amazing how some clients respond following the session. Someone will say "You didn't play the gongs tonight" ...when I did or "I loved that new instrument you played" ...when I have played it all the time. Our body will accept what is right for us at the time. And most people go home and feel truly relaxed and have the best nights sleep.
I play with sympathy, intention of love and peace. The instruments may include Tibetan bowls, tongue drum, crystal bowls, my voice, chimes, drum, ocean drum, tibetan flute, gongs and many more little instruments.
For one hour snuggled into your comfy blanket or whatever you bring to lay or sit on I play the instruments. No two sound meditations are ever the same. And at the end of the hour I gradually bring you to, grounding you and bringing you back to the here and now.
If you are interested in joining me then please message me to book onto the session.

Every wedding I perform is unique, full of love, a little or a lot of laughter, care and attention.
Whether you want a wedding in a barn, a field, the top of a hill, the place where you got engaged, village hall or somewhere else you both love then I can make your day really special.
A simple rings exchange, a handfasting, something with your unique personality, a lovely wedding with guest contributions, a welcome to you family members to promise that your combined families will love each other or a simple ceremony just for the two of you. I can make it happen.
If you are thinking about your wedding or even a blessing, then give me a call and I will listen to your wants and then develop your amazing ceremony for you.
Give me a call and start the conversation to your future.
Much love
Andrea

Did you know that I offer group and individual sound healing sessions?
Individual sessions can be tailored to your needs. They can include Tibetan or crystal bowls or simply and very effectively my voice.
Sound healing creates vibration which can reach your mental, physical or spiritual bodies.
A client came to me with a thumb that kept getting cramp. I toned with my voice and the condition went.
Another client came to me with lower back pain. I played the Tibetan bowls allowing their vibration to work with the pain. And the pain went.
Curious to see how it works? Then why not give it a go.
My next sound and healing sound bath is next Friday 18th July at Barley Village centre at 8pm .
To book an individual or sound bath, message me or ring me on 07929 331142.

Enjoy your peace.

I've been away on holiday and I have read the most fascinating book recommended to me. I was hooked and it brought home the other meditation practise that I have been doing, which brings you to the infinite silence.
Its true that there would be no music without silence, and the silence is everything. It contains everything you ever need and infinitely more.
Below is a summary of the book for you to consider whether it might be for you.
"Becoming Supernatural" by Dr. Joe Dispenza is a fascinating book that explores the idea of transcending our physical limitations and tapping into our highest potential.
"Becoming Supernatural" by Dr. Joe Dispenza is a transformative read that challenges the reader to transcend their physical limitations and tap into their highest potential.

The author's approach is both enlightening and empowering, making it a must-read for anyone seeking to elevate their consciousness and live a more fulfilling life. It is science meets the spiritual world.

Planes, trains, cruise, buses and every mode of transport has been experienced.
From Stockholm to the North Cape, midnight sun, a wonderful Havilla cruise, the quaint Bergen and then the amazing journey to Oslo.
What a wonderful time we have had. Back to work now!!
