How did it all begin?
Well, 11 years ago to be precise! That’s when I adopted my children. Looking after and supporting them gave me a profound sense that we need to look after ourselves if we are to look after others. At that time I was drawing to a close a successful (but all encompassing) teaching career and looking to move forward.
As a way to support my family and others I embarked on a 3 year Psychotherapeutic Counselling course, very interesting and very revealing. On completion I set up in a private practice and saw a small but regular number of clients supporting them with loss, transition and parenting, working one to one and with small groups, very enjoyable and rewarding, this business grew, I left behind the one to one work to concentrate on health and wellness events and a networking group for self employed therapists and practitioners, very hard work and really I had taken on too much and after I had run 2 city wide health and wellness days, I ground to a halt and walked away.
A few months later I returned to education, a scary prospect having been away from school for 9-10 years and to work with children from 4-7 instead of the 14-17 year olds I was used to! While this break went on, I always had a small glimmer of an idea, something I had wanted to do for quite a while, have my own wellbeing business in the garden - my own wellness shack (actually it’s a rather nice garden office) a place to practice my newly acquired skills in beauty therapy. essential oils and crystal healing.
The country is on lockdown and this has given me the opportunity to stop, kit out the shack and get organised, that way I can blend my passions for education and holistic therapy.
