Roots Therapy

Roots Therapy has a deep rooted passion to help those in need using a holistic approach.

I am a born empath with a passion to help people reach their full potential by bringing balance to the body, mind and soul. During my own healing journey I experienced an awakening which enhanced my inherent abilities further and has allowed me to become a stronger healer and intuitive reader. My inborn passion is to help facilitate the healing of anyone I meet and it's with this care that I have created Roots Therapy. I want to get down to the root cause of the problem so that my clients can experience true healing - healing that is steadfast and restorative. All of my healing techniques are energy based, including the easy-to-follow nutritional advice and the herbal supplements that I may recommend. Having a BA Degree in Psychology I am very adept at counselling my clients through their trials and tribulations, with my number one goal being the complete balance between the body, mind and soul!

We all have moments and times when we feel overwhelmed.

Do you recognise these times?

What do you do when you feel overwhelmed?

Here are some suggestions that I find truly helpful when I'm stuck in the thick of things -

* Increase your vitamin B - double up on the dose while you navigate the busy period

* Ensure that you are taking the correct amount of Vitamin D - get yourself tested and bring in the right supplement

* Take a weekly Epsom Salt bath - soak for 20 minutes in a handful of salts

* Increase your magnesium - put magnesium balm on the souls of your feet before going to bed

* Get yourself onto Sceletium and Ashwaganda - a bottle of Calm Focus will help you increase your Serotonin levels, relax your mind and calm your adrenals down

* Meditate, Meditate, Meditate - bringing your mind to a quiet place once or twice a day is incredibly helpful to reduce internal stress

* Clean up your diet - eat clean, avoid fatty /sugary foods and drink plenty of water

And if the overwhelm gets too much - reach out to a friend, go for a lunch date or seek guidance from a professional 🌸

This is your life... It's the only one you have so make sure it's a great one!

There is a call to presence when we celebrate our heritage and our culture 🇿🇦 ✨ And it's in this moment of reconnection that we find our authentic selves 🧘🏻‍♂️

So this week let us honour this connection of self by nurturing our souls and being mindful of the moment 🪷

Here is a lovely meditation by Sarah Blondin to help establish this connection -

*Did you know*

The average 4 yr old laughs 300 times a day, whereas the average 40 yr old laughs only 4 times a day!

Whether or not this is an absolute accurate figure - one thing that is certain is that children do laugh way more than adults...

Did you know that 10 minutes of laughing can reduce inflammation and pain!

Laughter reduces stress hormones like cortisol, dopamine and epinephrine and increases endorphins, assists neurotransmitters, improves blood flow and strengthens the immune system.

*"When we lighten up we feel more positive, optimistic, more hopeful and engaged"*

So what's your daily laugh total?

Struggles and stress will come and go, but that should not take away our sense of wonder, awe and magic ✨

From today, allow yourself to look at the world through the eyes of a 4 yr old - find humour in the little things, allow your laughter to bubble up and don't take yourself too seriously 😉

is all about *Tryptophan* -

"Tryptophan is an amino acid needed for normal growth in infants and for the production and maintenance of the body's proteins, muscles, enzymes, and neurotransmitters. It is an essential amino acid which means your body cannot produce it, so you must get it from your diet."

Tryptophan helps the body make proteins and certain brain-signaling chemicals. Your body changes L-tryptophan into a brain chemical called serotonin, which is our happy neurotransmitter.

Tryptophan is also the precursor of melatonin, our sleepy hormone, which helps us get a deep, restful sleep 💤

Tryptophan is found in nuts, seeds, oats, bananas, dried prunes, tuna fish, chicken and turkey.

*Never invalidate your feelings*

Being an empath I navigate each day through the perspective of others - each person I meet and each situation I'm in is then experienced from the lens of their awareness... Their emotions, their thoughts, their pain...

It took me a long time to understand that as I was overcome by external energies my own feelings were always invalidated. My emotions brushed aside to make way for someone else's pain - thinking that this was helpful and healthy 🥴

And so many of you live like this too by saying things like *"my problems are nothing compared to so-and-so"*

But don't forget that your problems are important because they are YOUR worries that possibly keep you awake at night or bring upon anxiety and fear -

So let's stop that!

We each have our own Triple A -

* Acknowledge that you are upset by naming the emotion and feeling where it sits in your body
* Accept that your feelings are valid and okay to feel
* Allow them to release through journalling, meditation, prayer or verbal communication

Show yourself compassion as you move through these steps understanding that acknowledgment of our inner feelings allow release so from now on give your concerns a space to breathe 🤍

And remember that only once we have given this turmoil a passage to move through will be possible to open our hearts to living in gratitude and calm with greater ease 🪻

Our Story

Roots Therapy employs a holistic approach to care.

Bio-Resonance Scanning - The Path to Healing Comes From Within

Roots Therapy employs a holistic approach to health, empowering our clients in their healing journey, with the main goal of getting to the root of the problem always in mind.

Leanne is proudly associated with Essential Health Wellness Centre, consulting under their name at their rooms as a Holistic Practitioner - using the Quantum Resonance Analyser, the BioPlasm Scanner as well as the Rife system.

Through a series of bio-resonance scanning sessions, we are able to see down to cellular level what is happening in the body therefore obtaining specifics with regards to your health, wellness and progress, as well as offer detailed information, supplements and excellent nutrition advice.

All bookings for the bio-resonance scanning to be done through Cathy on 083 654 9943

Reiki Healing - A Massage For The Soul

Along with the passion to heal from a biological point of view, Roots Therapy also offers energetic healing using Reiki therapy which aids in the reduction of stress & anxiety, increases relaxation, unblocking stagnant energy thereby restoring emotional and physical well-being.

Reiki is non invasive and the client remains fully clothed during the session. The practitioner works with the clients own energy and through various hand positions and techniques removes negative blockages and aligns the chakras. It is a natural, safe method to bring about healing and self-improvement. It is not a religion and is not dependant on a belief system.

Clients are able to customise their therapy to incorporate only the individual components of bio-resonance or Reiki healing. However, to truly reap the wonderful benefits that bio-resonance and Reiki can offer, both facets can be employed for a more integrated approach to healing.
