my personal list

FOR HEALING THE SOUL, WOUNDS & UNMET CHILDHOOD NEEDS

I know that you are capable of making the changes you’re looking for. I have. You can.

What’s helped me on my journey to healing:

A list of resources that have been powerful for me. To help you with healing outside our sessions & workshops.

Joy and Present-Moment Connection through Movement & Physical Bodily Expression:

Yoga, as a form of meditation, grounding and body-emotional awareness.

Several Youtube accounts with wonderful free content:

  • For sensuality and femininity: The Bare Female

  • For simplicity and tailered to all: Jess Yoga - Yoginimelbourne - Yoga with Kassandra

Discovering your Creativity & Finding Creative Expression:

The Artist’s Way, a well-known book by Julia Cameron, takes the form of a self-directed three month adventure into (re)discovering your creativity. Don’t be scared by the word “creative” or “artist”. It’s for anyone wanting to find more creativity and expression in their life or even simply personal growth and greater self-awareness. It is jam-packed with therapeutic insights and is inspirational. It’s the best value for money therapy I’ve ever had.

Understanding & Healing Intimate Partner Relationships:

There is one specific book that when it comes to healing intimate sexual and/or romantic relationships just hit the nail on the head for me. It was a complete Ah-Ha! moment of clarity that's stayed with me ever since and completely opened up and profoundly changed my way of seeing intimate partner relationships.

Anne Geraghty’s book, How to make your relationship work: Learn how to love and be loved (however simple-sounding and cringy the title sounds…) is a gold mine for anyone struggling with intimate relationship issues (with or without a current partner).

Healing your Relationship with Eating, Food and your Body:

If you are struggling with binge, restrictive or emotional eating and dieting in general, the 2012 edition of Intuitive Eating by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch is an amazing resource which looks at restrictive eating and dieting from a holistic view, not just a nutritional perspective. It is action-orientated and step-by-step.

Poetry I live by:

The Invitation, by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

The Gestalt Prayer, by Fritz Perls, the founder of Gestalt Therapy

“I do my thing and you do your thing.

I am not in this world to live up to your expectations,

and you are not in this world to live up to mine.

You are you, and I am I,

and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.

If not, it can't be helped.”

While I’d use the word statement instead of prayer because it risks sounding cult-like, I love this statement of personal responsibility for its emphasis on respecting boundaries and individuality while accepting that meaningful connections happen organically rather than through obligation. This is what gestalt is all about! Self-awareness and the importance of authenticity in relationships.

  • Healing Your Relationship with Food

     ARE YOU LISTENING

    to what your body is whispering {or screaming} at you?

    If you’re dealing with anxiety and stress around eating, feel food-obsessed and out of control or feel no matter what you do your symptoms just get worse, maybe it’s your moment to have a look at how lifestyle and your emotions are contributing to the problem, so we can get you back on track travelling discomfort-free, eating what you like and enjoying your social life to your heart’s desire!

  • Consultation Chats

    ALL SOUNDS INTERESTING BUT NOT SURE IF THIS IS FOR YOU YET?

    No worries, it’s normal… It’s really important that we’re a good fit and we won’t know whether we are until we’ve had an initial chat. That’s why I offer A FREE 20 MIN CONSULTATION CALL, no strings attached. After the call you decide whether you’d like to contact me for a first session.

  • Book a Session
