I have spent over 20 years searching for answers to my own ‘life’ questions, and many of my most profound shifts have been gained through exploring the sources of physical pain, emotional trauma and life challenges.

In 2005, Whilst completing a five year Transpersonal Psychotherapy training, I experienced a traumatic riding accident that left me with debilitating symptoms of adrenal fatigue, digestive disorders, joint pain, nerve tremors, acute mental stress, anxiety and chronic insomnia that western doctors were unable to treat successfully. I began searching for my own natural solutions. I tried many different alternative and holistic treatments over the next 10 years and gradually gained a greater understanding of why certain things worked and why they did not.

My psychotherapy training gave me a unique perspective on the process, but did not fully address the connections between the mind and body. I was looking for a more integrated solution that could make sense of my whole experience and that would have to include mind, body and spirit. I eventually discovered the solution in ancient Chinese medicine and the internal martial art of Qigong. Qigong offered me a path of understanding of the deeper causes of my suffering and ‘dis-ease’ and a positive and inspiring way forward.

It has been a long and challenging journey of self-discovery, that has inspired me to now help 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.
