HEALTH AND WELLBEING
I have worked in the Health & Wellbeing Industry for 30 years. My aim is to offer inspiration, to uplift, raise your vibration, offer you an alternative approach to health and wellbeing, share my knowledge and ..... to make you smile and feel happy. As part of my professional career I have travelled the world, had a business in the beautiful Bavarian Alps for 9 years, had my own Traditional Acupuncture and Wellness Clinic in England for 7 years, organised Wellness Events (Live and Online), lead Candle Light Stretch Classes, guided Relaxation Group Sessions, guided Mentorship and offered Inspirational Talks to small groups. I set up a free Traditional Acupuncture Service for Family Carer’s in 2011 which was initially a volunteer project that I had created; it was later supported by local funding due to the success and demand for treatments. This project enabled those caring for a family member, who have a long standing illness, to gain the benefits of Traditional Acupuncture. Carers often get lost in the loop; being a full time family carer is tiring and often comes with it’s own health problems. As Traditional Acupuncture is a private service I wanted to give them the opportunity to also gain from this approach to health and wellbeing as finances are usually tight in such circumstances. As I have a huge interest in the medicinal usage of herbs decided to spend some time volunteering in one of the most interesting organic herb gardens in England; one that only grows herbs from the 1620’s. This means that there are some quite rare herbs growing there which was of great interest to me. I have also volunteered in the relaxing and calming environment of a busy Meditation Centre where people came daily for lunch time meditation. ART
I have also been an artist for over 30years: Mixed media, oils on canvass, photography, poetry and creative writing. QUALIFICATIONS
