12-Week Healthy Gut Programme
I healed 15 years of digestive challenges and related symptoms in three months by combining Ayurveda with Solution Focused Hypnotherapy—Ayurveda healed my body, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy addressed stress management and habit change. I now combine Ayurveda with Hypnotherapy in a 12 week programme to help people with digestive issues. There is also a version that does not include hypnotherapy focusing completely on the Ayurvedic approach.
Edible Gardening & Cooking
With 20 years of edible gardening and private cooking experience I offer support with edible garden creation using the no-dig method, and Food Preparation for busy people or those with special dietary needs—e.g., ME, MS, Long Covid.
Ayurveda
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that originated from the Indian sub–continent over 5000 years ago. This system of healing restores balance to the body and mind, while healing and preventing disease through food, herb, cleansing and lifestyle advice. Ayurveda recognises we each have a specific mind-body type – our constitution. It explains how to live in balance with this – the foundation for good health, and that each constitution has slightly different digestive needs, due to their different metabolisms.
Conditions Ayurveda can help with include Chronic Diseases, Digestive Complaints, Chronic Inflammation, Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Fear, Fatigue, Insomnia, Anger/irritability, Psoriasis, Burnout, Menopause, Weight Loss/Gain, Water Retention, Lethargy, Respiratory Conditions, Excess Mucus, Lymphatic Congestion.


What you can expect from an Ayurvedic consultation
During the 90 minute consultation we will take a deep dive into your health. I will ask a number of questions in relation to your diet, lifestyle and life experiences, and carry out tongue and nail diagnosis. This in-depth consultation will allow me to discover your constitution (prakriti), and whether you currently have any imbalances (vikriti)—the ground for ill health. Shortly after the consultation I will send you a plan which includes nutritional and lifestyle advice, and an ebook that lays out daily and seasonal routines, cleansing advice, a number of Ayurvedic therapies that can be carried out at home, herbal and aroma suggestions, and information that will help you identify when your constitution is shifting out of balance, along with the remedies to apply.
What you can expect from an Ayurvedic coaching session
I offer 30 minute and 60 minute Ayurvedic coaching sessions, and recommend a 30 minute one 2-3 weeks after your initial consultation, to check in on how things are going. The sessions are designed to support you to implement your plan, as well as offering anyone who has some experience of Ayurveda but would like some coaching. The 60 minute sessions can be combined with Hypnotherapy for stress management or habit change.


Clinical Hypnotherapy
As a clinical Hypnotherapist I offer sessions in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, which is a modern psychotherapeutic approach that combines Solution Focused Brief Therapy with light trance work – medical hypnotherapy is not stage hypnotism, the client is always fully conscious I guide you into a relaxed state.
In Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, therapists look at what the client wants to achieve (the solution) rather than at whatever prompted them to seek help (the problem). This is a powerful modern technique that enables positive change quickly and effectively – changes are usually seen within 8-12 weeks. Conditions helped include Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Gut Problems, Low Self-Esteem, Insomnia, Anger, OCD, PTSD, Exam Stress, Performance Enhancement.
Hypnotherapy Sessions
Through deep relaxation and light trance we bring both the conscious mind and sub-conscious mind into balance and focus them on how you want things to be, creating the conditions within the mind to support positive change.
We begin with the initial consultation where you can discuss the changes you would like to make; learn the way the brain works; discover how we experience emotions in the way that we do and how these can affect us and our habits, along with what we can do to change these; and learn what light trance is, that it is a very normal and natural state. At the end of the initial consultation if you decide you would like to continue, you will leave with a link to a relaxation recording to listen to in between sessions.
For digestive issues Ayurveda combined with Gut-Directed Hypnotherapy offers a powerful combination.
