I bought my first set of Tarot Cards when I was 16 years old.  This was shortly after having a reading for the first time.

My mum was a district nurse and a Wife of one of her patients wanted to read for my Mum as a thank you for nursing her husband.  My mum took me with her to her session and I had a reading too.  We were both curious and a bit sceptical and both of us were blown away with our session.

The session involved astrology and I remember the lady having old silk cards that she picked up energy from. She called herself a business advisor and some of her most famous clients included members of the band ‘Smokie’

Since then I have accumulated various packs of cards, crystals, spell books, pendulums and even a cauldron.  (I think my hubby thinks I am a bit bonkers but as well as being hypnotised by me, he knows theres is something that his logical mind cant make sense of that has helped increase our connection as a couple.)

Ive worked as a hypnotherapist since 2004 when I took my first training in the UK and have never looked back.  Before that I was a psychiatric nurse.  It seems like I have always had a passion around the power of the mind and body connection.

I seem to just know things, such as the time my granny died when I was a young girl, I didnt want to go downstairs in the morning of her passing, my Dad eventually came up to me with tears in his eyes confirming what I knew to be true.

And when my own Mum was critically ill, the Doctors had promised her cancer was treatable but I knew one day at visiting her in hospital that my Nana was there and had come to take her home.  Later that night she took a turn for the worse, was given the last rites and died a few days later.

More recently when my brother was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour, I knew I had to travel to the UK to be around him and family.  John died the day I was due to travel home two weeks later.  Only 5 x weeks after diagnosis.  Although this was tragic and I still miss him dearly, I sat with him shortly after his passing and asked him for lots of signs that he was still around.

Having cancelled and rescheduled my flight to a week later, the signs came in abundance, not just for me but for John’s wife, children and my own children too.

My most prolific sign was and still is seeing 11.11 1.00 11.00

just a coupld of days after Johns passing my brother rang and left a message, which came through at 11.11am when I rang him back he said he hadnt rung me.  This still makes me smile.

The signs are all around.  We just often fail to see then as we are so focussed on our busy thinking minds, distracted by worry and stress.

When we are able to quiet our mind, we can hear the quiet voice of wisdom that is always there, calling out to us.

I help my clients find direction and let go of old limitations and stories that get in the way of their health or success.

And through my own realisation recently where I saw I was keeping a secret the ‘woowoo’ side of me, I now utilisse   tarot and oracle cards as a tool, to find direction, clarity and inner peace. In some cases I offer Reiki healing and suggest crystals to help in the healing process.  

After all, it isn’t what happons to us in life that causes our distress but our thinking about our circumstances, challenges and events.

If we can talk ourself into illness with our thoughts we can just as easily manifest health and wellbeing.
