Staffordshire's only multi healer Reiki sanctuary is back in July and we can't wait!

✨If your chakras are calling for a little balancing and uplifting healing frequencies then you've come to the right place.

Get ready to experience:

Hands on healing | beautiful sound vibrations from the crystal bowls | healing resonance from the Gong | reiki drumming over your chakras | Tibetan singing bowls | crystals doing their mysterious crystal thing and a room filled with high frequency energy.

Good energy, glowing chakras and that wonderful feeling when everything inside you clicks back into alignment.

A little reset… but let's make it high frequency!✨

When I get asked about counselling it's clear that some people imagine my counselling sessions as a place to talk about what has gone wrong or what is going wrong.

It is yes, but I’ve always been more interested in something else.

🌿What becomes possible when you realise that you are not simply reacting to life but that you are participating in the creation of it?

It's not a big question but it does open the door to a few existential questions.

Us humans fall into emotional loops don't we and yes we can all recognise the familiar looping patterns of thought, the 'stories' about who we are or 'maybe we could' future questions.

Sometimes all it takes is a bit of perspective mixed in with humour and healing for those emotional loops to loosen.

And when these emotional loops start to loosen then whoah something fabulous appears....

🌿Choice, Imagination & Vision start to appear. And we like that!!!

For me counselling is not about endlessly analysing the past, it's never been how I work and it never will be.

I'm all about recognising the extraordinary creative capacity within our human minds and learning how to use it more consciously to become more of who we are. How exciting is that!

The Italians have a phrase 'Dolce far niente" meaning the sweetness of doing nothing.

With weather like today it feels very fitting because in this country you have to grab the sunlight when you can!

I know I should be painting those Buddhas.....

But today I'm embracing a little dolce far niente 🌼

🌼Why I now offer Counselling and Healing sessions from home......

I love moving, in fact I've moved home 13 times since I left school!!

When I first set up in private practice I worked from home in a designated therapy room. I loved it and every house move I subsequently made was decided on by the therapy space available. Roll on a few years and I built a beautiful garden room which I adored!!

However I left that home and moved to a more rural location which didn't give that space. But I found myself working from venues that were stunning and I absolutely loved.

However another venue presented itself and Orchard Cottage became my new base for 1:1 counselling, energy healing treatments and of course the events.

I held my vision of moving and in October last year I moved into the centre of Stone, a couple of minutes walk from the cottage.

🌼My new home has allowed me to return back to the way I've always loved working!! My home provides the space for both a private study and a separate lounge area, which means I’ve been able to transform the large lounge into a calm, welcoming environment for my counselling sessions, 1:1 energy healing treatments and monthly healing groups.

After 3 years working from different venues, it felt really important to create a space again that reflects the way I work, which is peaceful, very private and naturally supportive of the mind-body work.

Clients often say they appreciate the quieter setting and the sense of comfort it brings. It allows them to step away from the busyness of everyday life and focus fully on themselves.

Orchard Cottage remains my base though for all the wonderful healing events I hold.

Sometimes the environment we sit in can make a meaningful difference to the work itself.

“Compliance causes a shocking realisation that must be registered by all women. That is, to be ourselves causes us to be exiled by many others and yet to comply with what others want causes us to be exiled from ourselves. It is a tormenting tension and it must be borne, but the choice is clear.”

— Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés

I think many of us can relate to the two versions of the same woman, shown in the famous painting. below. The woman shaped by expectations and the woman who dares to be herself.
