ABOUT ME
THE LOST CORNER
I have spent over 20 years searching for answers to my own questions. and many of my most profound shifts have been gained through exploring the sources of pain, trauma and difficulty.
In 2005, I had a riding accident that left me with debilitating symptoms of adrenal fatigue, digestive disorders, joint pain, nerve tremors and chronic insomnia that western doctors were unable to treat successfully. I began searching for my own solutions and tried many different alternative treatments over the next 10 years, gradually gaining a greater understanding of why things worked and why they did not. My psychotherapy training gave me a unique perspective on the whole process, but I was looking for something that could integrate and make sense of my whole experience. I eventually discovered the solution through Traditional Chinese Medicine and the ancient Chinese internal martial art of Qigong. Qigong offered me an understanding of the deeper causes of my dis-ease and an integration of the mind, body and spirit. I am extremely grateful for all that I have learned along the way.
It has been a long and challenging journey of self discovery, but has inspired me to now enjoy helping others to discover that under the murky compost of everyday challenges, there lies within us, intuitive answers that can lead to greater peace and enjoyment of life. We need to go inward to discover the ‘lost corners’ of ourselves in order to develop and grow.
There is always a glimmer of light in the darkness,
if you have the courage to look for it.

The Tao produces unity: Unity produces Duality:
Duality produces trinity: Trinity produces all things:
All things contain both the negative principal ‘Yin’ & the positive principal ‘Yang’.
The third principal, energetic vitality ‘Qi’ makes them harmonious.
There are some things which it is a gain to lose, and a loss to gain.
This may not be what they teach in school, but it is the first lesson in the Tao. TAO TE CHING
