About Me

 

My passion in the mind-body continuum, meditation and hypnosis was brought to light when I fell very ill a few years ago. I was sent to every hospital, given every type of treatment, all to no avail. My recovery only came about in turning inwards and changing my negative mindset, my thoughts and feelings, into positive ones. I quickly became aware of how my mind had a huge effect on my physical state and that it was only in changing my thoughts, turning away from fear and learning to trust my body that I started to heal. I am now fully recovered and have been left with an overwhelming need to share this gift and empower women. I am so passionate about the birthing process and getting back to basics. I want to help women let go of their anxieties, worries and fears and to learn to trust their body.

 

I strongly feel that, before making any birth related choice, every expectant mother should be fully informed. I want to teach women about the birthing process, how nature intended it to be and show women that in letting go and allowing her body to work in a calm and relaxed way, she will experience a peaceful, comfortable and powerful birth.

 

I am a qualified Hypnobirthist, having trained in the KG Royal College of Midwives accredited course, KG Hypnobirthing. 

 

I have a BA in Philosophy. I have an expansive amount of experience in leading Meditation, Mindfullness and in Hypnosis. I am currently taking a course to become a qualified Doula through Doula UK. I have also qualified in teaching Birth Preparation Workshops

As a fully qualified Hypnobirthing teacher I am a member of The Hypnobirthing Association. I am also an accredited member the AIMS (Association for Improvements in the Maternity Services.)
