Core Energetics is a therapy for personal growth and healing that involves not only the talking element of psychotherapy, it also recognises the role of the body in shaping how you see yourself in the world and how you relate to others. It facilitates change that seems to happen naturally.
Therapy can be a life-changing decision.
Reflexology
Reflexology can trace its history back over 2000 years and across many civilisations. It's a science based on the principle there are reflexes on the feet and hands (and in fact, over the body) that, when stimulated, can help to support and maintain balance of the organs and glands of the whole body.
Our understanding of ourselves as energetic beings is beautifully reflected in this modality and can help with physical, mental and emotional imbalances.
A gentle yet powerful modality that can support someone dealing with issues including chronic anxiety, stress, digestive and immune issues as well as cancer, migraine, fertility issues etc.
Yoga
Yoga is a practice that has ancient origins, designed to support total wellbeing - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
I am trained in Hatha yoga, and I also use props in my practice, such as blankets, blocks, straps, bolsters and chairs, to support each person wherever they need support within their individual experience of yoga.
My own life has been deeply changed by yoga and I love sharing this wonderful practice, making it appropriate and accessible for anyone at any stage of life, with any level of flexibility.
I teach yoga and meditation/relaxation at Wesley Choices Cancer and Wellbeing Centre in Auchenflower, as well as general classes in Brisbane.
I offer private sessions for people who would like more individual guidance.
If you'd like to know more about the classes I teach or private sessions, you're welcome to contact me.
Reiki
Reiki is a holistic healing therapy that was developed in Japan. Reiki (pronounced RAY KEE) is translated as "universal life-force energy".
As a natural form of healing energy, it's a gentle yet powerful treatment that can be deeply relaxing and restorative. Reiki can also support and enhance other forms of treatment, including conventional medical treatments as well as other complementary therapies.
Reiki is 'holistic' because it affects the whole person - body, mind and spirit - encouraging deep relaxation and a sense of well-being, and assists the physical body's own healing ability to operate more effectively and efficiently. Can also release long-held emotions that may no longer be serving you.
During a treatment you remain clothed and lie on a massage table (or sit if more comfortable). I work using a light resting touch (and can also be performed without direct touch) with the intention of activating and supporting the natural healing processes of the body and restoring physical and emotional well-being.
I can also offer this treatment remotely, if you are unable to come into the clinic.
Free Yoga Nidra
Guided Meditation
This takes you through a guided Yoga Nidra meditation. The meditation helps instill a sense of internal peace, leaving you feeling incredibly relaxed, present and rejuvenated.
