The bravest thing you can be is your self.
I came into this world as a sensitive—a sensitive carrying the energy of my ancestors, at least four generations of people who worked the land, coursing through my blood. Suffering led me to this work, and a motorbike accident in India in my twenties that taught me firsthand the fundamental mechanisms of healing, shaping my path from that point onward. I have also long been fascinated by what it means to be human and the nature of reality—this curiosity continues to this day.
My father often called me a drifter, and he was right, to a point. But I feel it is more accurate to say I was a “feeler,” moving through life guided by intuition rather than conscious plans. My path has always had its own energy, shaped by the call of my heart, which I have followed.
I now see my sensitivity as my superpower. I am a testimony to the transformative benefits of the three beautiful healing modalities described on this website.
As a young intuitive, I often felt flawed or overburdened. Yet, after years of working with these tools, I now see my sensitivity as my superpower. I am a testimony to the transformative benefits of the three beautiful healing modalities described on this website. Practising them over many years has been nothing short of transformational, helping me to feel more at ease in my body and meet myself with deeper understanding and compassion.
Naturopathic approaches, as taught by Barbara Wren, first helped me prepare my body—opening my cells to receive more light and to dance freely with nature’s rhythms and universal energies, just as my ancestors once did. These teachings laid the foundation for all that I have studied and practiced since, underpinning all of my offerings today.
Shakti Yoga Dance, created by my beloved teacher Sarah Avtar Oliver, is the beautiful somatic sound based practice which further deepened my former exploration in my body.
It held me gently through countless transformations, freeing my voice and preparing me to hold and deliver the powerful, transformative frequencies of my orchestra of light.
Working with sound - through the Tibetan and pure crystal alchemy singing bowls, gongs and other percussive instruments- felt like a natural progression after years of Shakti Yoga practice. Each of my precious instruments came to me over time becoming partners in my own healing journey. I made relationships with their unique sound signatures and alchemical medicine before sharing them with you.
Through this practice of presence and inner listening, my voice has found freedom and soul-aligned expression, and I continue to enjoy this liberating, ever-expanding journey.
I approach all my work intuitively with intention and presence in the way that my practices have taught me. I take my work seriously and lightly at the same time, always working within best practice and holding safe spaces for people to unravel. Each playlist for a Shakti Yoga Dance session-including particular mantras and other sound currents relevant for the session-evolves from this deep space of inner listening and I enjoy the creativity of this process as much as I do the sharing. Each sound immersion is a journey of self discovery for me as much as it is for those who come to share the journey with me and I regularly feel in awe of the energy that moves through me and the new discoveries I make each time I play. I am often asked if I ever get tired when I am playing. And my answer is simply no. In alignment, all my work flows from the energy that animates me-a bright blessing cultivated through years of practice, self discipline and ongoing devotion.
In my spare time, I love connecting with friends and family, gardening in the spring and summer, and taking long walks, mainly across the South Downs. Nature is essential to me, both for grounding and its healing balm, forming an integral part of my self-care. I also work with the elderly and younger people needing support, sometimes teaching one-to-one yoga or assisting with independent living.
If you would like to know more about my journey and how I came to this work, a fuller description can be found on my blog. For now, I’ll leave you with this beautiful poem that captures how I feel.

Lead from your heart
Lead from your heart
Look to nature for answers on your leadership journey
Lead like a buzzard with joy on the thermals
Be like a tree drawing nourishment from deep within the Earth
Flow like an apple tree with abundant times of giving
And fallow times of resting
Join hands together to carry heavy loads
Hold boundaries like a mama bear fiercely protective of her cubs
Lead like migrating birds using the stars and magnetic fields to navigate
Guide like the moon, waxing and waning, influencing ebbs and flows from a distance
Speak like the wren with a huge voice for your size, full of trills and flourishes
Lead like a species on the edge of survival
Most of all lead like your self
And follow your heart.
