gong & guitar

During my initial 500 hour yoga teacher training with Ruth White in 2002, I studied breathwork extensively and took my Reiki 1. Around the same time, I studied a form of Qi Gong (Thai Chi Wuxi Gong), which activated my 'dantien' energy centre. I learned to sense, and using my breath, direct energy through my body.

Spiritual practice, yoga teaching and music have maintained a constant in my life and continue to evolve. Enriched by complementary therapies such as EMF (emotional freedom technique), kinesiology and Reiki counselling, which helped me face and transcend my chosen major health challenge.

In 2017 I learned transcendental (mantra) meditation and was also initiated into the Munay-ki rites- an ancient shamanic practice. I am a practitioner of Usui Reiki 1, 2 & 3 and Sekhem 1.  

Recently I have found commonality with 'spontaneous movement' in Qi Gong and Donny Epstein's 'respiratory wave' in Network Spinal. After having some profound ceremonial psilocybin experiences, I was inspired to take a course in psychedelic facilitation, including preparation and integration.

I draw upon a blend of ancient wisdom and ever evolving modern knowledge to hold a healing space for others to evolve.
