Integrative Breathwork Facilitator, Reiki Master, Circle Leader & Ceremonialist based in East Devon. I have spent my life in creative practice and education.
I combine Breathwork, Ceremony, movement and creativity to strengthen our connection to our body and the natural world. Sitting in circles, playing, making, listening to stories, telling stories, exploring the connection between how we move, breathe and feel, and facilitating spaces in which people feel able to play, try new ways of being, laugh, move, and have fun. I am passionate about creating spaces that inspire wonder, creation and connection. To the natural world, ourselves and each other.
The Sacred Pause at Hunger Hill Retreat on March 9th

Presence is Everything 🙏
Thank you Liminal Connections for sharing this xx
Will you... Hold my hand for a little while?
I don’t need you to save me
No need for you to fix anything
No need for you to hold my pain
But will you simply hold my hand?
I do not need your words
Your thoughts
Nor your shoulders to carry me
But will you sit here for a while with me?
Whilst my tears they stream
Whilst my heart it shatters
Whilst my mind plays tricks on me
Will you with your presence let me know that I am not alone, whilst I wander into my inner unknown?
For my darkness is mine to face
My pain is mine to feel
And my wounds are mine to heal
But will you sit with me here, while I courageously show up for it all my dear?
For I am bright because of my darkness
Beautiful because of my brokenness
And strong due to my tender heart
But will you take my hand lovingly, when I sometimes journey into the dark?
I don’t ask for you to take my darkness away
I don’t expect for you to brighten my day
And I don’t believe that you can mend my pain
But I would surely love if you could sit for a while and hold my hand, until I find my way out of my shadowland!
So will you... Hold my hand until I return again?”

Some space has opened up next week for a couple of 1 to 1 sessions on the 14th & 17th 😊
I don't often offer stand alone sessions these days, but I am hearing a lot of fatigue and grief at the moment.
Bodies gasping for warmth and minds feeling frazzled by the pace of the year, the new ideas flooding in, rapid changes and energy swinging between manic and exhausted.
Together we can find the still point.
Sooth the nervous system, rest the body and mind.
Recharge your inner glow!
Drop me a message if this is for you ✨😊
This Sunday at the beautiful Revitalize Studios in Topsham!
Two hours of nourishing rest, nervous system care, powerful Breathwork and great tunes.
Jump on board for your January fix! ☺️🌬️

I am back at the beautiful Revitalize Studios in Topsham on December the 18th.
This is the perfect reason to take a few hours to be in a sanctuary of compassion and acceptance.
Let me hold you and guide you through a journey towards peace and self love.
This is your space to calm a frazzled nervous system, to rest a tired mind.
To release the weight of the many emotions that abound at this time.
This is your perfect moment to
Rest. Release & Restore.
I am a Mentor.
I am a holder of space.
I am a powerful advocate for you becoming more aligned with your purpose.
I know, without doubt that by learning to love and take good care of ourselves, we can be of greater service to others.
I recognise the courage it takes to be still and listen to your heart.
My own journey from disassociation and avoidance, to healing through feeling and being held in loving, non-judgemental spaces inspires and informs the work that I offer and create.
✨Holding the world back so that you can experience deep rest.
✨Creating pauses that allow you to see a new way forward.
✨Clearing dense energy and old stories that hold you back.
✨Breathing yourself back home, to a body that feels safe once more.
Working together we can clear, clarify and empower you to step forward lighter, stronger and connected to your power.
Tis the season of inner work..
I'm here to support you to step fully into your light in 2023 🌠🌟
✨ Tomorrow Night ✨
Breathing into.. The Light Within.
As we step into the season of Yuletide, and towards the celebration of the returning of the light, let's take a collective breath upon our inner embers and together witness them burn and glow.
"..a pot keeps warm on a single ember, and Heggarty Peggarty's stove is hotly singing once again."
Zoom Room 335 830 1608
Bear sits in the dream time, the night time, under a star lit sky.
Bear is strength unexpressed and explicit.
Powerful, and still.
Bear prepares for a time of sleep in which they will rest with the spark of potential within them. And rest deeply, surrendered entirely to sleep.
Knowing that the warm earth and the scent of spring will come soon enough.
Until then stillness. More than rest, deeper than sleep. Dreaming. Allowing a fertile void to marinade, germinate and for transformation to unfold within.
It has to start within.
Bear rests, and will stir when her body lets her know it is time.
Bear rests and will emerge when Mother Nature offers her signs.
Bear is fierce and generous.
Powerful and playful.
Loyal and wise.
Alert and resourceful.
Bear rests.
STARTING THIS THURSDAY ~24th November @8.30pm gmt
Breathing together, through the darkest months of the year.
In the time before, before light and heat were available by the flick of a switch, it would have been a compulsion, a necessity, to gather together as the year darkened.
To sit with neighbours and friends, to share your hearth.
To watch the flames together, to dream of the light, together.
Each Thursday at the same time I will be holding a Connected Breathwork journey live on zoom. Come by, drop into the shared space.
Each week we will consider our Wintering. Journey together into the rich darkness of the season.
There will be a theme to paw over, a 30-40 minute guided Conscious Connected Breathwork journey, and spaciousness for sharing, if you desire, before we say goodnight.
This Thursday we will Breathe into..
The Season of the Bear.
I'd love to see you there X 🐻🔥🍂

It's time.
As we teeter on the cusp of 'The Season' I would like to invite you to take a pause, to stop and reflect, to breathe and to notice where you are. How you are. And to consciously step towards yuletide and Midwinter in deep connection with yourself. This time of year can trigger many conflicting emotions. This Pause allows space to acknowledge those feelings, and to connect to the magic of the natural world as it prepares for the deep rest, from which the light of creativity and abundance will inevitably return.
🍂You will have time to notice what your bodies are telling you about how you are anticipating the season.
🍂There will be space to journal into your aspirations and our also your boundaries for the coming weeks ahead.
🍂And finally, you will be guided through a powerful Connected Breathwork journey that will bring clarity and peace through gentle release.
This is the Breath you take before the festivities kick in. This is the breath you will take to find peace and pressence amongst the swirling colours of the season. This is the breath you take that connects you to your heart. To those you love. To those that went before and to your deep peace within.
This is your Sacred Pause. ✨⭐️✨
Took a walk on the beach yesterday morning to soak up the Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse energy and see what the sea had to say.
It’s fair to say she was processing some deep stuff 😁And looked pretty wild! Any one else?...🤔😵💫
“If ever there was a day when you could viscerally feel why other civilisations felt like the moods of the ocean were expressions of the gods, it’s today.
The ocean is absolutely raging. Every time I try and get to the shore, to the waters edge it feels like I’m being physically blown back up the beach again. When I walk towards the seashore the waves seem to crash a little further up the beach, like she’s trying to chase me away!
Everything that is on the seabed has been churned up, so she’s really murky and muddy, everything that’s underneath has been brought to the surface. And what has been brought to the surface is being pounded by the waves. And she doesn’t want anyone near her whilst this is going on. It’s serious turbulence!
And yet amongst that, there is beautiful bright white foam coming the surface of the water and moments when the sun breaks through and creates this incredible golden light on the waves.
What a day.”
It's the subtle magic of this work that gets me. The way that your Breath will meet you wherever you are at.
When there is trepidation, or weariness the breath will reveal your Self to you gently.
Your breath as your Teacher will never dump lessons on you, but rather whisper truths to your body for you to hear.
We can dive in expecting sadness, and the Breath says 'I will show you hope'.
We discover that tears can hold relief as well as sadness, loss as well as steely self belief.
And here's the thing. I can feel this, and I am safe. I am not less, or lost.
I am a vivid, complex, technicolour miracle, a messy genius.
Unfathomable and Lovable.
Howling and open hearted.
Wholly human.
Hilarious and Divine.
✨❤️✨
I am fresh back from 2 days of Connected Breathwork, and I am just so looking forward to sharing this beautiful work with others this Sunday in Topsham.
The benefits of this work are bottomless, because it is YOUR breath, your body, your moment in time. No two experiences will be the same, and you will only ever experience what you need and are ready to hold in that space and time.
This work is of benefit to everyone, because we are developing greater awareness of our nervous system, and our body and mind's relationship with the breath. We are learning to regulate ourselves. To take care of ourselves. To heal ourselves.
So, if you are you feeling stuck, stressed or overwhelmed,
If you are you holding on to so much you feel you might burst,
If you struggle to express or release emotions,
Or if you avoid stillness for fear of 'feeling too much' then please do reach out for a chat about how Conscious Connected Breathwork might be able to support you; or join me at one of my Breathwork groups this season.
The Breathwork Sessions are an introduction to a Breathwork practice that can support you to gently release trapped emotion, explore your nervous system and find a calmness and clarity within.
Join me this Sunday Revitalize Studios in Topsham and discover this life changing practice.

Autumn ~ The season of sniffs and mellow fruitfulness!
As the change in temperature challenges our immune systems it is so important to be in full awareness of our breath and how we can optimise our chance of staying well by breathing well.
How are you breathing right now?
Many of us still spend a large part of our day (and night!) breathing through our mouth.
Committing to retrain yourself to breathe through the nose is a powerful way to support your immune system this season!
🌬️The nasal passages are designed to warm and humidify the air you inhale.
🌬️A significant amount of germs and bacteria are filtered from the air you breathe, through the nasal passages.
🌬️You cannot over breathe through your nose, breathing is steady and more regular, which supports the regulation of our nervous systems and blood pressure.
So take notice of your nose and breathe in the wet mulchy smells of the woods,the autumn rain, or your favourite books. Breathe and enjoy the smells of the season, keep your bellies soft and the nasal passages clear 👃🏽😄🍁🍂
I said: "There's a lot going on.."
Lee said: "We are in a collective healing bonanza!"
Love it, expect that to be my new answer for everything.. 💜
A very strong, emphasized message from my guides was that you might be experiencing enormous, emotional waves that don't make a lot of sense or that you can't necessarily pin on anything going on in your life - you're just feeling very emotional, and it can overtake you. Whenever these sheets of emotion move through you and they feel personal, it's not just you feeling empathy for other people or feeling heartbreak for other people, it's a very (almost) surreal experience of suddenly this flush moving through your body. You are releasing the past and sometimes it will be us releasing our own personal history, some of the trauma we've experienced, some of the things that we've gone through that have been difficult, but we can now release. But equally, we're in a time where we as a collective are releasing a lot.

We can fall foul of the myth that needing help is a personal failure.
We all need help. We are a collective. We are creatures of the pack. Our heritage is tribal.
As our needs and our strengths ebb, flow and change we are able to offer different kinds of support to others, specific to their needs. Others will have their own unique ways of supporting us.
This I know for certain, our 'low' times, when we feel we are close or beyond capacity, when we can't see a way out, ultimately increase our empathy and our ability to support others, when the time comes.
There is no winning or failing here. Just humans, mining for inner courage, and muddling onwards.
It is imperative that we help one another, and asking for help is part of the dance.
As Ram Dass says, "We are all just walking each other home."
November 6th is on my mind 😊🧡✨ 4-6pm in Topsham ~ Let's Breathe together and Be together. Keeping well & grounded in our bodies and in our breath. Moving through these darkest months in connection, and prioritising our wellness, to sustain ourselves and for the benefit of our bodies, our minds, our souls and all those around us. 🙏🍂❤️
🍂'Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go'🍂
So how come letting go can sometimes feel so very sad, and uncomfortable? And if letting go is so good, why does it feel so hard?
I went to the forest to speak with the experts, and it turns out that nothing lasts, and nothing disappears. But releasing things allows them, and us to continue on in our constant process of evolution.
Release and Transform.
If you are interested in learning more about this topic, get thee to the woods, or a nearby tree. They are waiting to show you how. 🍂✨🙏🌳🧡
I'm delighted to be taking The Breathwork Sessions to the beautiful .studios in Topsham.
This is such a warm and welcoming space to come and discover Connected Breathwork. If you are feeling the call to dive deep, totally new, 'Breathwork curious', or wanting to expand your practice and connect with others The Breathwork Sessions are for you!

Have I always loved the ocean?
Have I always swam?
It feels like that to me now.
But also, I remember the night in March 2020, 1 month after my first Ice Bath experience, that I got into the sea at Budleigh beach.
It felt like coming home, and I felt that was because I had grown up by the sea, but had lived in cities ever since I'd left it behind. But I know plenty of people that experience that sense of homecoming regardless of their proximity to the sea. The homecoming is not geographical. You come home to yourself.
Movement is effortless and any question in your head is softly answered, or brushed away. I feel playful and silly and held,
And in that same breath there is awe and respect and humility.
I am it, and in it, and it is everything.
Every single big move I've made since that first dip in March 2020 has come about in conference with the ocean and the moon. Witnessed by the sky, the rocks, the trees and the weighty presence of the Triassic cliffs that oversee it All.
I fall, into the sea and murmur 'IloveyouIloveyouIloveyou'' over and over.
I am washed back to the shore and everything is in its place.
And I am home.
