“I’m getting quite a deep sleep now, so I’m feeling more energised through the day.”

My client had been in pain for months following an operation.

It was keeping her awake at night.

She asked me to help with the night wakings.
And after just one session, this is what she told me. 👆

She’s even back to studying — something she hasn’t been able to focus on for weeks.

At our next appointment, we’ll work on reducing the pain itself.
Several of her health specialists have told her it’s something she’s fixated on.

We won’t eliminate it completely — that would be reckless
but we can ask the mind to turn it down.

Because the mind is powerful —
it can create psychological pain,
and it can also calm it.

When we bring it on side,
the pain reduces,
the sleep gets even better,
and the recovery momentum builds.

If you’re ready to get your clear thinking back,
it's time to address your sleep,

DM me or comment SLEEP UPGRADE below,
and I’ll show you how we do it.

“I don’t want sleeping pills to be an option anymore,” she said.
“I just want to fall asleep and stay asleep — naturally.”

So that’s what we did.

Three Zoom sessions, all from her own sofa.
One to resolve the “I can’t get to sleep” problem.
Two to tackle the “I keep waking up” problem.

And that was that.

She started feeling comfortable in her bed again.
Drifting off easily.
Sleeping right through the night.

We did it together —
me, her, and her subconscious mind.

That’s always how it works.
Because when the subconscious feels safe,
the sleep changes stick.

And the last time we spoke?
She was still sleeping soundly — all night.

If that’s where you’d like to be too,
drop 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗖𝗞 below or send me a DM —
and I’ll send you the details.

Back in 2020 I had a vision...

to renovate this derelict space into my new reflexology treatment room.

It took the whole year. Whilst the world was weird.

But I was so determined to make it happen!

I'd already sat in the chair, and imagined how it would feel for my clients
to watch the trees in the breeze,
to feel hidden away from the world,
and listen to the sounds of the squirrels, birds, and rain on the roof

And now… it’s exactly as I imagined.
A calm little cocoon at the edge of town,
where people arrive heavy and leave light.

Every time I hear the rain hit that roof,
I remember what it took to get here —
and I wouldn’t change a thing.

P.S. It doesn't look like this anymore! 😆

Have you noticed? 👀

You always make your best decisions after a good night’s sleep.

There’s time for exercise,
soup trumps kettle chips for lunch,
and you actually say no to something you don’t want (thank you very much).

And on the flip side —
when sleep doesn’t happen like it’s meant to,

the snooze button wins over the gym,
wine beats kombucha,
and sleeping pills start looking oddly sensible.

There’s no judgement here. 🧡

The frustration comes when it doesn’t feel like you have a choice.
The night already made that decision for you by stealing your sleep.

Now you’re just getting through the day,
medicating your way back to normal.

The thing is, you already know those quick 'feel better' choices
are just survival dressed up as self-care.

They help for a moment,
then leave you right back where you started —
tired, wired, and wondering what happened to your willpower.

That’s why, when we rebuild your sleep,
we do it right where you are — at home.

So there’s no last-minute 'I just can’t'
No dragging yourself to an appointment
when your energy’s already gone AWOL.

You curl up on your sofa,
I guide you through it on Zoom,
and together we put your sleep 😴 — and your sanity — back in place.

If you want to know what that looks like,
DM me or drop SOFA in the comments,
and I’ll send the info straight over.

Seeing your glowing face beaming back at you in the mirror…

There’s no better beauty supplement than a full night sleep

It really doesn’t matter what you slap on your face,

if you’re not sleeping well, it shows

But when you do sleep properly you INSTANTLY look 10 years younger.

Sleep issues aren’t always down to lifestyle

Sometimes, there’s a pattern living under the surface

Maybe it was created when you had to be up at night

Looking after children, elderly parents, shift work…

It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember when or why it happened

All that matters is your sleep can be put right. And quickly.

If you’re caught in an insomnia pattern, and want to make ‘drained face’ a thing of the past

DM me or comment BEAUTY SLEEP and I’ll get back to you with something to brighten you up again.

Wouldn’t you love to know what your feet have to say about you? 👣

One thing my reflexology clients always love is hearing what came up in their feet during their treatment.

Each area of the foot connects to a body part, organ or gland — and when a point feels out of balance, it often reflects something in the body that needs a little support too.

We do the work while you relax in the chair,
and by the time you leave, you’re floating —
herbal tea in hand, to help your body flush the toxins away. 🫖

They’re the calm in everyone else’s storm — which means they’re also running on empty.

If you want someone to think you hadn’t listened, here’s what I’d tell you to do:

❌ Interrupt them halfway through their sentence
❌ Give them a solution they didn’t ask for
❌ Make it about you immediately

Because nothing stings quite like feeling unheard.

What’s missing — is this:

✅️ Reflect back the one thing that mattered
✅️ Ask them a curiosity question
✅️ Hold the silence for 3 seconds longer than is comfortable

That’s what real listening feels like.

And the energy I’m pouring into my Christmas Voucher appointments.

Ahh, those 3am wakeups.

Lie on my left side. ⬅️

Turn to the right. ➡️

Flat on my back, ⬇️

Rinse and repeat… for at least a couple of hours.

Was it the chocolate? 🍫 (No - I moved that to 11am).

Why on earth did I say yes to that in 1994?

What was that noise? Did I lock the back door? 👀

How on earth will I get through tomorrow?

I hear this a 𝘭𝘰𝘵 from my clients.

So, when they tell me they’re back at the gym in the mornings, and the extra weight is shifting naturally, I could honestly do cartwheels for them.

If you’re caught in the 3am mind wheel,
and are determined to feel like you again,
