Hi, my passion is for teaching and sharing Yoga, Reiki and Ayurveda, with those ready to deepen into their spiritual nature. More recently I have combined all these ancient practices in Spiritual Life Coaching and Fertility Coaching. I also write books and articles – please see Amazon here for my latest book on depression.

Since 2006, I have run hundreds of attunements, workshops, retreats and training events, developing a dedicated community of gloriously and wildly different souls who are trying to live the vision of creating a better world, starting with themselves.

My story

I grew up in Guernsey but have travelled extensively on my quest to greater self-awareness and spiritual growth. This from a background of depression, anxiety and eating disorder. Reiki and Yoga literally saved my life and I shall always be both grateful and indebted to these spiritual practices. I have practised Yoga daily ever since I first discovered it in 2003, quickly followed by Reiki. I never intended to become a Reiki and Yoga teacher, let alone an Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle consultant, but this is how life flows once you bring spiritual practice to it – you just never know.

I’ve learned that we have more potential than we can realise, and that we have a habit of limiting ourselves. I love that spiritual practice breaks us free of this, so that realising that potential becomes increasingly apparent in our life.

This is not about becoming someone, being famous, or even well liked. This is about doing the inner work so that we can literally be the change we would like to see in the world. I sincerely believe this is a truth and I have committed my life to pursuing this truth and attempting to realise more of my true self in the process.

Beinspired was founded in 2006 so I could share my passion for this process with you and offer Yoga, Reiki and Ayurveda as an opportunity for you to weave magic, mystery and alchemy into your life too.

I offer a grounded and embodied approach to spirituality that draws on the wisdom and ethics of various spiritual texts and traditions as well as my own innate knowledge and wisdom.

When I’m not working or practising, I’m probably home schooling my two beautiful and sensitive sons, Elijah (10) and Eben (7), or I may be following my joy by sitting in a dolmen, or swimming in the sea or walking the lanes, or baking and making praia-rich fresh food, or lying in a warm bath reading a good book, or watching the moon and the sun, or tending to my medicinal plants, or drinking tea while writing, or resting and sleeping.
