🌿 We all know how much better we feel when we have spent time outdoors doors.

🌿 Scientific research shows that spending time in nature has many positive health benefits

🌿 I am excited to share with you that very soon I will be offering Reiki sessions set in a beautiful natural setting. Set amongst the Cotswolds hills, I will be offering Reiki with surrounded by green fields, wild flowers, trees, birds and maybe a few ponies.

🌿 Coming soon is a space where I can treat inside but with the doors open so you can hear the great outdoors.....and on warm days we can set up outside for the full nature immersion experience

✨️ More information coming soon....

🌿 If you are in the Stroud area and would like to express an interest in this offering feel free to drop me a DM.

Who can relate? 🙋‍♀️

🏇 Not quite a supple or flexible as you used to be?

🏇 Feel uneven/crooked in the saddle?

🏇 Struggling to get your leg over?? Yep, that was me yesterday when I tried to be clever and dismount onto the mounting block, got one leg on that, then the other stuck over the back of the saddle just as my horse took a sneaky step to the side... Luckily I didn't face plant! 🙄🤣

🏇 Finding some of the every jobs a little more of a challenge than they used to be?

😞 Frustrating isn't it?

Nobody likes to face the fact we ain't getting any younger and riding is pretty tough on the body.

👌 Get in touch and have a quick chat about how Bowen therapy could help you feel just a little bit more like the old you.

👌 I recommend 2-3 sessions over the course of 4-6 weeks before a review of progress.

👌 Most clients then stick to regular Bowen treatments throughout the year as maintenance

👌 Professional riders - if you're serious about your riding then you need to be serious about your own physical and mental capability. Bowen may help reduce stress and anxiety as well as improving competition recovery rates.

🙏 I also offer Reiki sessions which are great for reducing stress and anxiety and promoting a general sense of well-being. It is also great at supporting the body through recovery after illness, injury, surgery as well as helping to reduce pain...

⚘️ Research after research across the world shows time and time again, that humans generally do better when surrounded by nature.

🌿 Lower blood pressure
🌿 Lower heart rate
🌿 Less stress and anxiety
🌿 More focus
🌿 More creativity
🌿 Less violence
🌿 Better mood
🌿 Improved immune system

And more...

So why are we still surrounded by concrete, ugly grey buildings, noise, artificial lighting?

Perhaps 'they' don't want a population of healthy, free thinking, creative, supportive people.... that would be harder to control...

🌳 Take time out for "you"
🌳 Take time to walk amongst the trees, listen to the birds, the wind in the trees...
🌺 Take time out to look at everything around you.. properly...
🌺 Run your hand over the moss...heck why not hug a tree?

Remember, you can take control....

Don't be a sheep... 🐑

Back on the road again..... travelling between clients, and time for a pit stop. I am very lucky to be travelling around the Cotswolds and finding little interesting sites and spots like this (except the bin maybe 😁)

This is Evie. She is an American Quarter Horse who I have been treating for quite a few years now. She is a happy hacker with no significant issues, but has routine Bowen sessions through the year - typically Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, just as a maintenance treatment - think if it as a horsey MOT.

In this little video she is calm, zoned out and processing. On this session she was quite tight around her shoulders, neck and poll. It you watch closely you can see very subtle movements in her head as she starts to release.

Your horse doesn't need to have anything wrong to benefit from bodywork, and it is not just for horses in hard work or competition.

Just like us, horses can develop tension, restriction and stiffness which can lead to tenderness, discomfort and eventually pain.

Bowen therapy can also help horses on emotional level - often helping then release stress and trauma.

It is a complete treatment which is why I love it so much.

Many people wonder why there are breaks during a Bowen and Reiki session. With both these therapies we are working with the body rather than on it....and so we are expecting the information from the moves we make in Bowen, and energy shifts during Reiki, to travel to the brain via the central nervous system. We then need to take a step back and allow the brain time to process this information and send a signal back to the body as a response.

This break shows the gentle, subtle signs of processing and releasing, if I had carried on treating I could have pushed the body through this important response.

It is important as a therapist to observe, observe and observe some more and be prepared to take a break and step back...

As I start to find true self again, the healing therapy work is finding me again, but now it seems more enhanced.....✨️ maybe we need to break and rebuild at some point in our lives to find our own true self....

I am transitioning slowly back into full time therapy work and loving it 💫✨️

And just like that....after separating the boys from their shenanigans.... 5 minutes into their Bowen session and they are both totally calm, relaxing and processing their treatment.

The power of both Bowen and Reiki treatments is truly amazing....

Week Two treating the herd Today it was the turn of Tallis (15) and Tarran (3).... As you know I like to allow horses their freedom during a treatment to move around, process and relax..

The sun 🌞 was shining and these two loons had other ideas so we just stood, watched and chuckled. 😁

So many horses have their lives controlled so far beyond their natural environment they never have the chance to form close bonds and play....and sadly many people never get to watch their own horses play and express natural behaviours.

These guys live out 24/7 on a track system with access to shelter, ad lib hay and it is a pleasure to work with them.

One last video of my day treating horses at

I have been treating this herd of therapy horses for may years and this was the first time in their new, permanent home in Painswick, Stroud.

We have some exciting plans in the pipelines that will include the herd so stay posted... ✨️

I like the opportunity I have here to treat the horses loose, this allows them to move around, take breaks to process and come back for more...
