My story changed when I sought help from a London clinic specialising in Chronic Fatigue (the Optimum Health Clinic). They  showed me my issues were a combination of developmental trauma, undiagnosed physical illnesses and psychological characteristics. Years of feeling alone, confused, in pain and unable to find anything that would change my situation shifted into a ‘healing path’. 

​

I started doing yoga to learn to relax, and through the practice had a profound experience of heart opening that changed everything. I moved to an Ashram in Wales, practiced asana, meditation, chanting and karma yoga and had a series of ‘awakening experiences’. After the initial highs I realised I had to work deeply with my shadow to embody this opening. I started training in a variety of talk therapies including EFT, hypnosis, psychosynthesis, and various  trauma techniques. 

​

Through this psychological exploration I learned to sit with my emotions, change my relationship with my thoughts and beliefs, and experience the colour of life when emotions are allowed to flow. 

​

Training in VortexHealing® has brought all the elements of learning, transformation and awakening in my life together. It is the path of perpetual feeling, presence and love. I feel incredibly grateful that I can embody and heal through it, and have the honour of facilitating this for other people. This journey is incredibly magical and hard in equal measure. While in reality there is no separation, our conditioning can make us feel alone.  In receiving and giving healing there is no gap between Divinity and our day to day experience of being human and in the world. It is the most powerful awakening practice I have experienced. 

​

I read this quote some years ago by Rumi:

​

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it”

For me it perfectly encapsulates the paradox of healing.

We are already what we are seeking.
