Mild anxiety was something I always lived with, until it became a deep issue when I went through a time of sudden change and transformation a few years into my yoga path. Even with all my yoga and meditation practice and Reiki, I was stuck. This is when I found E.F.T - Emotional Freedom Technique and Matrix Reimprinting. Suffering from emotional pain, mental blocks and insomnia, I experienced the amazing results of this unique technique when I felt I had nowhere else to turn. Naturally, I knew I had to train in this so I could add it to my tool kit. I have achieved some fantastic results helping people with sleep issues, anxiety and emotional pain in particular. Once you have had a session, you can use this technique on yourself, it involves tapping on specific meridian points to release the energy behind the emotion or pain that you are experiencing. The Matrix Reimprinting is the next level of EFT where we address the root cause of the problem presenting.
No matter how demanding life becomes, I always make time for my daily yoga and meditation practice. It does take devotion and commitment, however the results are worth it for the time invested - I love how it continues to relieve my stress, anxiety and negative thoughts, connects me to my intuition and opens my heart allowing room for more love and compassion towards my loved ones, students and clients. As I feel calmer and happier inside and out, it benefits not just me personally, but those around me.
Life has truly taken an amazing turn around since finding the yoga and the healing path - helping others to turn their life around too brings me so much joy. I have particularly found supporting people through cancer and emotional pain most rewarding, inspiring them to take steps towards their own path of healing and happiness.
I believe there is no end to the healing and learning we can do for ourselves, life is like a spiral, we continue to circle, evolve and grow, often getting tested at our weakest points, not to break us, but to make us aware of them so we can become stronger and wiser. More recently I was faced with another 'test' that affected my health and wellbeing, and this time I found sound healing to be the most powerful source of transformation that helped me move through the nervous system dysregulation and energetic imbalances I was suffering with. Now, having studied and become a certified Sound Healer with The Sound Healing Academy of Australia, I am having so much fun incorporating ancient and modern instruments into my healing and yoga sessions. The feedback has been amazing so far and I will continue to study the practice of sound to further deepen my knowledge and skills in this field.
Suncoast Healing and Yoga is more than a yoga business, it is a community. I am so happy to have found such a beautiful and peaceful setting, at the base of one of my most favorite places to sit, contemplate and observe the world. My aim is to not only share what I do, but also bring together some of the Sunshine Coasts finest teachers and practitioners, so there is something for everyone. We offer you a place of support, where you can feel safe to heal your pain, build your strength and make friends in the process.
