I attract a lot of clients who are grieving. When you are in the healing world it’s funny because us therapists often attract those going through something we have already been through.

Which i thought was odd at first because I haven’t actually experienced a lot of physical death in my life so far. But grief is something I am very very familiar with.

Because grief is not just for when someone dies it’s when parts of us or our lives die.

Have you allowed yourself grief for…

An old identity that doesn’t fit anymore
A past relationship that didn’t work out
Friendships that have fallen away
An old job or home
The you before you started healing

Even if we are going through a change we want, there is still grief in letting go of what came before.

But how many of us allow ourselves to fully be in grief? Maybe it’s too hard to do on your own. Maybe you’ve not even realised you need it. Maybe it’s what’s holding you back from fully moving forward.

As always I am here to hold that space if you need some support.

Much love
Xx

It’s been one of those bizarre weeks.

I have dealt with flat tyres, a blocked toilet and I’ve been watching the Epstein files unfold.

I’ve also laughed and skipped (literally) through the woods. I’ve felt a sense of contentment I’ve not felt before. I’ve danced and sang with joy in my kitchen.

And this is why we do the inner work.
To be able to hold ALL of it. To be able to look and act on horrors going on in the world and not get stuck there. To be able to be in our blissful joy without hard and boring life stuff bringing us into complete shut down.

It reminds me of last year when I lost a relative and at the same time I was falling in love. It was so beautifully bizarre to be grieving and in those blissful moments of a new love at the same time. And again this is it.

There’s sometimes a misconception (one I’ve made myself many times 😆) that if I do enough inner work and healing work that life will be a walking joy. And yes it will bring so much more joy, I know that for sure. But it will also build your capacity to hold the other stuff too. It makes life easier to handle. It flows more with ease.

So I’m leaving a picture here of when I was in somatic training earlier this week. I was on the receiving end one day, I was feeling so deeply connected spiritually and then I was changing my flat tyre 30mins later. 😂

Life hey, how fulfilling it can be to able to let it ALL in 💕

Are you holding it all together right now?

I’ve had a few clients in lately with the common theme of being the ones who are holding it all together, taking care of everything and everyone. This time of year only adding to this.

When you are always the one holding everyone and everything together it can feel pretty special and incredibly healing to let someone hold you for a change. To let someone give you space to process and release some of that weight you have been carrying. To let someone witness your vulnerability underneath the armour of holding it all together.

This is what I provide in a Sacred Somatic Journey. I hold a safe space for you to meet, feel and process what’s going on internally. To reconnect to your self.

You can work with me in a one to one session or be supported through a 3month 1:1 journey- Change Within.

I am open over the Christmas period and the diary is open for 2026. Link is in my bio for more details or to book in. 💕
