1:1 EMBODIED Healing & Wellbeing Support

A transformational Programme to help Mothers heal, grow and rebirth themselves

I offer 1:1 Mentor support to Mothers and Mothers-to-be who are looking for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual guidance surrounding Pregnancy or Motherhood. My approach is very holistic, incorporating many mind-body practices, working with the belief that our body keeps the score and is therefore our vehicle out of our darkness and into the light, returning home to who we truly are.

Becoming a mother can be a very confronting time, as all that we were, all that we know & all that we feel, comes into question. A lot of past trauma can resurface & new trauma can arise as a result of motherhood & it can cloud your whole experience - that’s certainly what happened to me for the first 2 (and a bit) years.

But it can also be the gateway into a brighter, more true and abundant life if you can find the courage to work through it.  I chose courage (because the only other option was even darker) & I took a holistic approach to healing my darkness & bought myself back into the light.

Now my mission is to help you find your light again. 

With my 1:1 Holistic Motherhood Wellbeing Programme, I am here to support you on your healing journey & enable you to rise into motherhood as the woman & mother you want to be.

From the age of 18 I worked professionally as an actress, singer and dancer. An industry I’d dreamed of all my life but also when it came to it - an industry full of uncertainty, judgment, huge, magical highs, coupled with deep lows, thus creating a feeling of never ‘enough’. I also suffered from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) from a young age which is greatly affected by stress. The two went hand in hand.

I started to support myself with a holistic lifestyle which began with a change in diet and then went on to incorporate Yoga and Mindfulness, so much so that at the age of 35, just after I’d gotten married, I went to India for a month and trained to be a Yoga Teacher. This changed my life. Yoga and healthy, holistic, living became my new passion and I started teaching and mentoring women to help them turn their lives around. It felt great.

Then in 2017, my daughter was born. Motherhood hit me like a high-speed train. I lost every part of me that I had come to love. I experienced post-birth trauma (my daughter didn't take her first breath & spent her first 2 weeks in NICU). Subsequently I suffered from PTSD. I also had Postnatal Depression and Postnatal Anxiety all mixed in with intense sleep-deprivation for 2.5 years.

I lost my identity, I felt alone & isolated. I felt a lot of anger. Then past traumas resurfaced and I questioned everything I knew and was. I became incredibly judgemental towards myself and others. It wasn't the cherry on top of my previously 'perfect' life.

Aside from my daughter, the only thing that kept me alive was my healthy diet and my holistic lifestyle tools, however I wasn't able to use them the way I used to. Then one day I cracked - I hit absolute rock bottom and I knew at that point something had to change.

There were two options - end it all, or start prioritising myself, start processing and healing and nurturing myself the same way I was nurturing my daughter. So that’s the path I took. I started a deep healing journey using all the tools I had learned over the years and gained some new ones. I reclaimed myself. I rebirthed myself. I became the woman and mother I so desperately wanted to be and now I am in awe of the growth and beauty of motherhood.

Don’t get me wrong - there are still ups and downs. Motherhood is hard and life is messy! But now that I have released myself of the emotional weight bearing and learnt how to integrate these holistic tools into my ‘new’ life, I tackle the challenges in a more positive, loving and nurturing way and I am shining brighter than I ever have before. I am forever learning and growing and falling deeper into the wisdom of my body and nature.

My experiences have provided an opportunity for huge personal growth, emotional development and a deeper understanding of what it means to be human. I now have the great pleasure of supporting other Mothers and Mothers-to-be as they embark on their journey of healing, growth and self reclamation.

What is the programme and how does it work?

My 1:1 Motherhood Mentoring Programme is a 6 session programme designed to work closely with your challenges and help you process this profound shift and equip you with the holistic tools you need to make your motherhood experience, an/or journey into Motherhood feel lighter, safer, freer and more balanced.

We are holistic beings - everything is integrated. For example when we're feeling low/exhausted/depleted, our physical body starts to suffer which in turn sets off further negativity in our minds so then we reach for a crux of some kind which further exhausts/depletes us & so the vicious circle continues. And when we have children, we are at the bottom of the 'repair' list.

There are many reasons you may feel called to work with me, but here are some examples based on previous clients and the ways in which I can support you:

• You are experiencing feelings of Anxiety, Anger, Rage, Resentment

• You are suffering from the impacts of Trauma (during Pregnancy or birth or unresolved trauma for your past).

• You feel a disconnection from your body, or you want to learn a more embodied way of being.

• You feel lost, overwhelmed, or like your light has gone out, or you're no longer sure of your identity or how you fit in your life.

• You feel disconnected from your partner and/or child.

• You want support with healthy eating and lifestyle tips to enable you to have more energy and more presence.

• You have tried working with a conventional therapist and you want a more mind-body approach to healing.

• Your children have started school and now you don't know what's next for you.

• You want support finding and trusting your intuition, and innate power and wisdom.

• You are keen to learn a more conscious, gentle way of parenting and living.

• You want to Mother is a way that feels different to what society or your family/friends expects but you need support in trusting this.

• You know there is more to life than how they are feeling now.

• You want to integrate a more holistic way of living into Motherhood.

• You want to find a calmer, more patient way to parent.

To give you an idea of the areas we are likely to explore to begin your healing:

Mental & Emotional Wellbeing - how you are feeling & coping mentally & emotionally & finding holistic approaches to manage this.

Physical Wellbeing - what you put in & on your body. Exercise. Energy, Sleep. Food/Nutrition.

Spiritual Wellbeing - your identity, your place in your life, your relationships, your dreams & desires.

The sessions will be designed around what you need to focus on & the areas in which you are struggling.

If you choose to work with me, we will meet via Zoom for 1hr a week at a mutually convenient time. The first session will be 90 minutes and in this session we can explore exactly what is causing you difficulty. This session often reveals the crux of what is going on for you and from there we can slowly peel back the layers and start to get you back on track. Depending on what needs addressing first (and we will always start with small, simple steps) I will offer you tips, advice, live guided practices, audio & video recordings, and email communication between sessions.

Investment:

£555 (either weekly or fortnightly). We can of course do more than 6 sessions but they are booked in blocks of 6 at a time. Payment is required before sessions begin in order to secure your place.

The cost of the programme includes:

• 6 x 1:1 sessions (you can choose whether we meet weekly or fortnightly).

• Following emails after each session explaining what we have covered and next steps.

• Regular email contact in between sessions.

• Bespoke personalised Videos and Recordings of any tools, techniques I recommend during the sessions (for example guided audios, yoga videos, print outs etc)
  
  Sessions take place on weekdays, between 10am-2.30pm Mondays and Fridays, via zoom.

This Programme is a fully holistic approach to your healing & growth, incorporating all the tools I have used to heal myself.

90 Minute S.O.S mentoring Sessions:

I also offer 90 Minute S.O.S Sessions if you are seeking some immediate support with a particular challenge or if you are not ready to commit to the full 6 week programme. These sessions are a deep dive into a specific area in which you are struggling. During these sessions we will explore what you are finding difficult. It is a space for you to be heard and seen. We will then work out ways for you to move forward, incorporating a variety of holistic practices which best suit your needs.
Investment for 90 Minute sessions is £111

It's important to note that I am not a therapist, counsellor, or psychologist, I am a Mentor, using my various trainings in Holistic Wellbeing, including Yoga, Dance, Meditation, along with my own lived experience of motherhood and healing.

Before we work together I will establish what areas you need support in and whether or not I am the right support for you. During our time together I will recommend the services of other practitioners (including therapist for example) if I think you would benefit from their expertise.

Sending you so much love,
