My Story
Turn the clock back over 10 years to when I was a high-flying but extremely hectic and stressed-out Fashion Buyer based in London……..I had a long commute, a 12 hour day and a healthy enough bank balance but my personal ‘health-wealth account’ was severely depleted and alarmingly in the red! And no matter how hard I worked or how much cash I had, I realised it was all pointless if my health – physical, psychological and spiritual – was suffering as a result. I also realised that the journey towards self-care and kindness starts with ME and set out to make conscious and positive changes.
Consequently, in my efforts to listen to the needs of the “real me” and be kinder to my busy body and manic mind, I discovered the healing, energising and life-affirming effects of human touch through Massage and Reflexology. And the benefits of the mindful arts of Tai Chi, Chi Kung and Meditation.
I have since given up my stressful fashion career and retrained in new skills such as teaching and therapies. The last 10+ years of training, retreats and daily practice have enabled me to enjoy a healthier, happier pace of life. I have also been very proud to work with the cork cancer support centre (formerly the girls club cork) – an inspiring cancer support charity – and offer specific treatments to help those going through any stage throughout the journey of cancer.
A combination of my own struggles, life-changing experiences and the help of supportive teachers, friends, family and inspiring clients and students I have met along the way, have all motivated me to create embody harmony and help others to make health, harmony and happiness a way of life. And just for fun…..I enjoy walks by the sea, live music, travelling, taking part in an improvised theatre group and cooking curry and apple crumble for my friends!!!
