Patricia Lubeck Welcome! I wish for you to find hope again, that life doesn't have to be a struggle - even in the d It may also gently assist emotional healing.

Usui Reiki is an ancient Japanese technique, which is used for stress reduction and relaxation. It can also support traditional medicine, especially during times when your energy levels are low. A typical therapy session consists of light, non-invasive touch or the holding of hands above places on the head, torso and back. The healing energy is usually felt as warm, peaceful and loving. As a practitioner I draw on my guides and both the universal and earth energies. Reiki is non denominational, so it doesn't matter if you pray to someone specific or don't have a spiritual connection at all. The Aroma Touch Technique is a clinical approach to essential oil application. It's a powerful, accessible way for everyone to experience the healing powers of dōTERRA's CPTG essential oils. The treatment will encourage relaxation, boost the immune system, sooth inflammation and assist homeostasis in the whole body. A great treatment for body, mind and spirit. Known as EFT-tapping for short, the Emotional Freedom Techniques use gentle tapping or holding of acupuncture points located mainly on the hands and face. It may help to alleviate emotional problems or self limiting beliefs about ourselves which often, in turn, cause stress or anxiety. Some of the symptoms it may be effective for are: the relief of depression, anger, removal of cravings, PTSD and psychosomatic pain. Clients usually see improvements in their first couple of appointments but some further treatment may be needed. Additionally I offer my clients a safe space to explore their feelings and options, using mindfulness techniques like meditation, reflection and releasing or empathetic listening. I am grateful to have learned from the wonderful Ingrid Darragh and will be completing my teacher qualification with her soon. Through volunteering with Samaritans Belfast, I have heard a lot of stories and built up resilience and compassion towards my clients. Please get in touch if I can be of service in any way or if you have further questions!

✨Landing Back✨

Oosh.

I'm still landing back from the weekend's festival.

Such a challenge and joy to mix and mingle amongst different people.

So many offerings.
So much to process.

On Sunday morning I woke quite early and opened my little fairy light tent to this amazing view of the lake.

It took my breath away for a bit.

And when my breath returned, it laid itself across my heart with a peace so heavy as the fog resting on the lake.

I'm making lots of time to hold on to those juicy moments of stillness amidst the chaos.
Like the silence that followed our Keens. And the gentle smiles on bubba's faces as they slept through a thunderstorm by the crackling fire.

If you're waiting on emails and replies, I will get to them by the weekend. Thank you for all your patience ✨

For now, I'll leave you with this Rumi quote that has been iny heart ✨
There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground; there are a thousand ways to go home again.”

✨ Menstruation Matters✨

Period love incoming.

I'vw just received my free pack of reusable menstrual pads from and .

Such a brilliant initiative to spread awareness around period poverty and environmentally friendly options.

I particularly liked the packaging which included a cycle charting tracker.

Hmm, me thinks there's maybe a series of posts needed to cover all the things I have to say about healing the relationship with my own womb and menstruation. As well as alllll the things I've learned using reusable menstrual products for the last 15 years - I really have tried it all.

Would you fancy a q&a around reusable period products and their pros&cons?

For now, here's a list of accounts doing great work in the menstruation realms who I think everyone would benefit to follow:

✨Organisations making change happen ✨




✨People doing the work ✨




✨Period products I have been using reliably for over a decade✨


(Particularly reusable pads and tampons)


(Mostly their reusable tampon applicator)

✨Meeting your Hands✨

I cannot WAIT to be at this weekend, offering death care, keening workshops, massage, and more.

Did you know that your grief and worries show up in your hands?

I have been studying and reading hands for a loooong time. It was a way of falling in love with my healing hands that never seemed elegant or dainty enough.

It's a huge privilege and honour to sit with someone and oooh and aaah over their life stories.

It has been incredibly validating and life-affirming that others who are brilliant at palmistry can witness and name big moments of my life without me telling them. It reminds me that my reality is true.
That all the things that happened to me were not just in my mind.

I have also loved watching the lines on my hand change. My lifeline is slowly settling. My line of stability is coming into existence.

I see so many characteristics in my hands that I know from my mother and my sister. It has been life-changing to understand the trajectory of our ancestry. And to know that I carry it with me.

✨✨✨✨✨

Come visit my tent if your heart is heavy, if you need rocked and held by Rebozos, if you fancy braving the mystic space.

I'll welcome you with an open heart and healing hands ✨

✨Snug as a bug in a rug✨

I wish, I wish, there was a way to capture the beauty and holiness of those last juicy moments at the end of a treatment.

My heart feels so tender and so deep with each new client who is nestled in between towels and blankets.

Whether there is a big catharsis, gentle snores, or soft smiles.
Every moment of integration brings a new sense of being humbled by the work.

It really doesn't matter that I've done hundreds if not thousands of massages or treatments. There's a curiosity in these hands eagerly trying to understand, nourish, and heal.

It really is a blessing to get to do what I do.

SEPTEMBER OFFER
✨ I've had a flurry of requests and bookings the last few weeks, nearly all which have been womb massages, or endometriosis care.

So maybe there's some curiosity spreading?

I'll be offering a discount on all womb massage treatments booked in September.

If you quote the code *WombLove*, your 90 min womb session will just be £50 instead of the usual £65. ✨

Me: oh Sheesh, looks like life is shifting and I feel like I'm barely surviving.

My brain: YES! We should make pancakes from scratch and cut them into hearts for breakfast.

✨Super proud doula moment! ✨

Please enjoy my dramatic retelling of this 60 second experience that felt like eternity.

Out at the park, chasing after a toddler when newborn poo-namied all over my gorgeous ring sling.

S**T.

What to do, what to do?

We used the Rebozo as a snuggle blanket for the buggy. It's not long enough for a front carry.

Could I do a slip knot? I'm sure I could do a slip knot. How hard could it be?!

(Turns out, moderately hard. Especially between park shenanigans.)

Slip knot figured out. Phew.

How do I tighten this thing?! Can I tighten this thing?! Gaah, baby cries. Toddler attention. Gah.

Follow the fabric, Patricia. Think.
Fabric moves in straight lines. Feed the fabric round.

I wonder what happens if I tuck on this end - SUCCESS!!

It's all figure-out-able! Especially thanks to excellent sling training with Rosie and Kiri . So hard to remember all the different carries, it's a life saver to have a basic understanding of how to move fabric and passes, even if you don't know the answer at the top of your head!

✨Death deserves Beauty✨

I woke up this morning full of heaviness. The cats were unsettled and there was a commotion of bird noises going on outside.

When I followed the cat outdoors, she led me to a baby bird who had died. I suspect it fell out of its nest and a cat or a fox had gotten to it.

I took a deep breath and felt the eyes of a big pigeon on me. Maybe that was its mumma. I reassured her that I came with care and love. That I, too, had lost my babies, and that it was okay to let others tend to our dead when it wasn't possible for us.

An old shoe box and hand-cut flowers became the bed which I gently lifted dead bird into. It's incredible how much love can pour into me when tending others in service. I soothingly acknowledged bird's wounding, sighing

'Oh little one. Oh dear, look at that. oh you didn't deserve that. Oh, love.'

Then I covered the gruesome bits with flowers. There's something so restorative in the combination of acknowledging trauma and adorning it with beauty. There were herbs and fresh flowers to counteract the smells as the body decomposes.

For a while I stayed there, letting the birds and cats around me see the body in the box. I sang the same lullabies I had sung to my babies when I had buried them. And I waited until it felt right to close the box and remove the body.



You know, sometimes people think of me as weak because my heart flows into tears so easily. When I read a newspaper headline about war and tragedy, the lived reality of that lands on my heart like a raindrop sending ripples through the surface of a still lake.


It's not a weakness to feel in this way, it's courage.


It's this very same courage that doesn't just look at a mangled up bird and says 'gross' before walking by. It's a force that knows our interconnectedness and says 'this death deserves beauty'.

Honouring this little birdy, and all the beings today. Death truly is a Teacher. And service to the dying can bring so much joy.

✨ PILGRIM ✨

I was absolutely gutted that we had to postpone our shenanigans at this weekend. But it did mean that I got to join the two cohorts of PILGRIM that I would have otherwise missed.

For those of you who might not know, PILGRIM is the ongoing mentorship that we offer our EOL doulas in training at . It's 3hrs on Zoom each month to put the internal work they have done with the guidebook in context of being in service to others.
We hold space, we offer skills, we connect, and we work creatively and somatically.

I'm so incredibly proud of this offering and the projects that emerged as a result of it. But I also feel so deeply humbled and privileged by the time I get to speak with all these humans. It's hard to put the love I feel for them into words. Each month, my socks get knocked off by their wisdom, their open-heartedness, their work in the world... The list goes on.

We currently have 3 teams going from Ireland, Wales, and Spain. And a 4th cohort is about to start their journey from South Africa. The people who are part of our groups are from around the world and my little mind finds it hard to compute how by the click of a button we all get to be there, together, each session.

This month, one of the groups has looked at their own best possible death, while another sat deeply with prayer and their own world views.

I would like to share with you my own little prayer that emerged in the intersection of those groups:


Use me.
In your own time.
So that the heart of this world
can melt into
Love
With this heart of mine.


May I find inspired action through the balance of service to and deep, profound gratitude for humanity.

✨A day in the life✨

Today, I woke up and met for a cuppa with a mama whose child is nearing the end of life way too soon.
We sat and laughed and cried and I mostly listened, but she got a whole lot off her chest.

Then I scooted on to quickly check in with a follow up consultation for a baby wearing consult I did a couple of weeks ago. It's incredible how fast humans learn new skills when they're held through the process! It is a pretty fun part of my job! Baby cuddles included.

A quick pitstop lunch at . And on I went for a postpartum massage with a client I got to support throughout their pregnancy. It's mind blowing to see someone at the end of their pregnancy and again when the baby is humaning about! Hard to believe. Have I recently told you how much I love ?

I made it home just in time for a zoom call with a new client. Pre-conception and fertility work, mapping out a personalised pathway for nutrition, womb and fertility massage, menstrual awareness and charting, couples ritual, a grief ceremony for past losses, a separate ritual to call in their spirit baby, and some well-deserved momma care.

Herbal tea please, before I now settle down to coordinate the facilitator teams for the 3 (!!!!) End of Life Doula preparation calls with that are coming up next week. I get to check in with all the facilitators, send them the session guide with all the content and exercises we're focussing on, arrange for meetings, and then send prep emails to the groups of EOL doulas in training. How lucky am I?... I say before Kajabi glitches and a video gets lost and I'm watching endless YouTube videos to figure out how to fix it.

There is an immense sense of pride, responsibility, and privilege I feel to get called in by people from birth to death. And I wouldn't be able to do it all without the support from .ferry, who patiently waits each month for me to sort my admin (and I really try so hard, but never make it on time!), or the weekly community connection I get with the death crowd, or the people spreading the word for me, tagging me in things, and letting others know that there is help available.

Thank you✨

Our Story

Ever since I was a little girl, I have felt like an alien in this world. It wasn't until I discovered approaches to holistic healing that it finally felt lovely to be different and stand out. That's why, as a practitioner, I firmly believe that everyone deserves to be loved unconditionally. I will meet you with positive regard and non-judgemental support.

I'm an international teacher and practitioner of many different healing modalities. Over the years, I have qualified as Reiki Master/Teacher, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) Master Practitioner, Aroma Touch Facilitator, as well as Yin Yoga Teacher. Recently, I’ve started sharing All Love healing and finally completed my Psychology degree.

Sharing ancient wisdom and practical skills is only part of my work. I’m really passionate about reminding others of their ability to hold space for one another with profound love – the basis for miracles to unfold. While I’ve established a well-equipped tool box in regards to healing modalities and approaches to process trauma and dis-ease in the body, my greatest teacher was navigating through life’s challenges. Now, I feel confident in supporting clients. I practice the tools I share in my own process and know how to manoeuvre through whatever comes my way. It's been my priviledged to hold space for hundreds of people, listening to their despair and helping them find a way through.
