Walk To Heal Retreats

28/12/2025

We are going on Camino again next year on a Walk To Heal Retreat! Guess where? Isn’t it just beautiful 😍

As this year comes to a close, I love reflecting!

I’m pausing with a full heart.
So much walking, so much healing work, so many moments that changed me, upgraded me.

I turned 60 this year! What 🙀

This photo was taken in Alghero, Sardinia at sunset - a moment where I breathed it all in, and realised just how lucky I am. Lucky for the places my feet have carried me, the lessons learned along the way, and the people who have walked beside me. A few minutes after this photo we were dancing to live music beside the old city wall, glimmering in the sun’s last rays, on the eve of our Camino of 100 Towers.

This year has been about more than movement. It’s been about listening, softening, trusting my point of focus, adapting and adapting some more! Working on myself and making exciting new changes. I’m deeply grateful for every connection, every shared step and every moment of courage I’ve witnessed in the women I walk with and the clients I work with.

Thank you to this year for all it gave me.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey.

And here’s to walking gently, intentionally, and hopefully into the year ahead.

With gratitude 🤍

What if the pain you’re feeling isn’t something to erase — but something to move through?
In this video, we explore why painful memories linger, how the mind and body hold on to hurt, and what Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind teaches us about love, loss, and being human. While powerful techniques like EFT tapping, EMDR, and hypnosis can soften and rewire painful memories, true healing isn’t about forgetting — it’s about knowing when you’re ready to let go of suffering.
I share practical ways to acknowledge, release, and transform emotional pain, make peace with the past, and consciously choose yourself again and again. You can’t erase what happened — but you can change how you carry it, reclaim your power, and create space for peace, joy, and renewal.
This is about moving on with compassion, intention, and courage — and remembering that healing is a choice you get to make.

When your favourite dance partner gets stage fright 😅🥰 💃

Your mind is vulnerable and worth looking after as we approach a new future of AI, information overload and a world which never “switches off”.

Never mind what’s going on in your private life and how that is compounded by your beliefs.

I invite you TEND TO YOUR MIND LIKE A GARDEN.

I invite you to get to the root cause of your distress and change the negative narratives.

Tap with me!

You’ve got this!

In this chat, American, Courtney Runyon and I explored the emotional links to the autoimmune condition which left her paralysed several years ago. I’m sharing it again where we talk about how she went on to walk the Camino as soon as she could walk again!

What an amazing young woman. Since we spoke…She is now a motivational speaker has appeared on TEDx and is a psychosomatic practitioner. Go Courtney! You can find her here and the full interview here

All we can do is our very best.
Sometimes just our best
And sometimes we fail at that too.
And that’s okay
We are fabulous and we are flawed.
It is impossible to win at everything
And please all
And it’s important to know that
This is called the human condition
And Life is full of holes that we fall into.
Life is full of the unpredictable.
Its messy, its hard, its sad and its beautiful
We have to roll with it
Or it rolls us.
We have to find the beautiful again and again

Your great supporter through change

“Hiking doesn’t just feel good.

It rewires how your nervous system handles stress, focus and emotion.

Even light regular hikes strengthen the hippocampus, reduce inflammation and calm the brain’s default mode network, the part responsible fo rumination.”

Sometimes we just have to take a walk and we rise💚
