Questions I get asked about The Graceful Alignment Method👇

1️⃣ “Do I need to know anything about chakras or energy work before I start?”
Nope.
You don’t need to know a thing, just come with an open mind and a willingness to heal. I guide you through everything gently and clearly.

2️⃣ “What if I can’t visualise?”
Honestly… doesn’t matter.
Healing isn’t about seeing perfectly in your mind, it’s about what you feel in your body.
Most people feel sensations long before they ‘see’ anything any ways.

3️⃣ “Do I need to talk about my past?”
Absolutely not.
You never have to relive or retell painful memories. This work allows your body and subconscious to guide the release safely, softly, and without force.

4️⃣ “How do I know if it’s working?”
You’ll notice subtle shifts:
✨ Calmer emotions
✨ Better sleep
✨ Feeling lighter
✨ Less overthinking
✨ More grounded and clear
The change starts from the inside out.

If you’re feeling the pull to try this, you’re probably ready. 🥰

Have you ever heard the saying “from pain to purpose” ?

I never planned to create a healing modality.
I simply wanted to feel like myself again. It all started with me healing from the past!!

For years I was drowning in grief, people-pleasing, anger, burnout, drinking and drugs, and that horrible feeling of being disconnected from who I actually was. I tried to outrun it all, and let’s be honest, I drank my way through a lot of it because feeling nothing felt easier than feeling everything. 🤷🏼‍♀️

But life has a way of sitting you down when you refuse to listen.

So I started exploring. Self development, Reiki, quantum healing, Belief coding, Qigong, Subconscious healing, Somatics, Breathwork, and Psychology.
Piece by piece, I stitched myself back together, and I realised something huge….

Healing isn’t just one thing.
It’s all of it, focusing equally on your mind, body, soul, energy, nervous system, past and present versions of you working together. Seems like a lot?? 🤔

That’s exactly how The Graceful Alignment Method™ came to life.
Not from a business plan.
From a woman who was tired of her own pain and chose to do something about it. A woman who desperately wanted to help others “heal forwards” and not have to revisit their painful past experiences!! I’m not down for trauma looping 🫩 it’s exhausting 🙄

Now… watching other women use this method to shift their lives, regulate their bodies, release their pain, and reconnect with themselves, it genuinely blows my mind. Every single time. 🤯

💜 I am living proof that when you stop chasing perfection, stop trying to fix everything at once, and simply follow what calls to your soul… everything starts aligning.

If you’re feeling that pull…that whisper…that nudge you keep ignoring…

Maybe it’s time you trusted it.
Because your story gets to change too. And that is your decision 💪🏼💜

You decide what your life looks like 💜 be intentional about it 🫶🏻

Ever noticed how when your mind’s racing, your body tenses too? 😖
That’s because your nervous system and thoughts are in constant conversation, back and forth 🫣.
You can’t think your way out of stress & worry you have to move it through your body.

Here is one simple way to calm your mind & your body 👇🏻
Try this right now 😍 put your tongue to the roof of your mouth, hand on your heart, breathe in through your nose slowly and deeply, out through your nose slowly and deeply, let your shoulders drop, feel your feet on the floor, give yourself 30 seconds of stillness while you breathe deeply,imagin your thoughts passing through like fluffy clouds, in and out, your body will thank you for it.

Let me know how you get in 🫶🏻

That’s why I love Qigong so much. 🧘‍♀️
It’s gentle, grounding, and helps you reconnect to you instead of been somewhere else like the past or the future!!! It brings you back to the present moment!! 😊

I honestly can’t wait for Saturday’s Qigong session in Otley 🧘‍♀️
It’s also online if you want to join from home, it’s calm, grounding, and such a good reset for you for the week ahead 💪🏼

What a difference 12 hours makes when you are intentional with your time and healing 😁

I’m emotional this aft, in a nice way, the modules for The Graceful Alignment Method Practitioner Training are now complete 🥹

What a journey it’s been 😍 one I honestly doubted I’d be capable of, but here we are 🥹🫶🏻

The workbook is nearly complete too all I have to do is get it printed for our in person on 22-23rd November 💜😜

Such a huge milestone done ✔️💜 😁

Thank you to the trainees (case studies or guinea pigs I call them 🐹😂) all for your on going support, patience, feedback, dedication and especially their own healing and embodiment of the process 🥰

The graceful Alignment Method isn’t just another modality it’s the bridge between who you’ve been and who you’re here to be or should I say become, a full body, soul deep return to energetic alignment, healing, and truth. 💫💜 nothing more powerful than just been your beautiful self!!

The next 12 months are going to be mind blowing, and I can’t wait to see each of the trainees that decide to put their healing first and then move forward to help others heal too 🫶🏻 that’s the final stage of healing in my eyes passing on your knowledge and gifts.

Keep your eyes 👀 peeled and watch this space 💜

REMINDER : Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you can’t, including yourself, self belief happens in time, through failure (there has been a lot) through procrastination and fear, learning and unlearning, so stop comparing yourself to everyone else and just be you 🥰 that’s good enough 😘

Ever felt like your body is trying to tell you something?? It holds onto emotions that your mind can’t explain!

That’s exactly what Qigong and my Ibiza Retreats are here to help you shift. 🧘‍♀️

I guide women who’ve been carrying stress, overthinking, stuck in the past or emotional heaviness, to help them reconnect with their bodies, regulate their energy, and find peace again through gentle movement, stillness, and soul level reflection.

Our weekly Qigong classes in Otley (and online) are where it all begins, grounding your energy, releasing tension, and creating space to breathe again. I’m excited for Saturday it’s our first session together 😁.

if you’re ready for the ultimate reset…
Join me in Ibiza, May or October 2026, for a truly transformational retreat experience, with sunrise Qigong, somatic healing, deep reflection, sound therapy, and that island magic you can’t quite put into words.

It’s more than a getaway, it’s a powerful homecoming. The ladies who joined us in October had the most incredible shifts, I’m so grateful for each of them for all they have shared since coming back home 🙏🏼🥰

Happy 1st November ☺️

Sat here in Tenerife with my hubby just us two
and honestly, I’m so bloody grateful for where I am compared to two years ago. I was a mess 🤦🏼‍♀️

Even one year ago, I was still finding my feet… still healing, still rebuilding. But wow, how much can change when you choose yourself over and over again 🫶🏻

Sobriety gave me clarity, peace and healing. Healing gave me purpose.
And life… well, life feels lighter, calmer, and more me than ever before.

Things I’ve got to look forward to…
💜 My Ibiza retreats in May & October 2026 (I’m already calling in 10 incredible women who are ready to finally put themselves first and who are aligned with me)
💜 My Qigong sessions starting next Saturday — in person and online — I can’t wait to share this practice with others. It’s calm, grounding, and pure presence.
💜 My in person Graceful Alignment practitioner training & Reiki attunements at the end of the month, I’m still pinching myself that this is my life.

And it will only get better I’m sure of it 🥰

After everything, I’ve finally found my purpose and my heart is singing 🎶

If you’re on a journey of overcoming your past
keep going, even when it feels heavy. One day you’ll look back and realise it was all leading you home to yourself, and I promise… it’s so worth it

Here’s to healing, alignment, and living life fully, sober, grounded, and grateful as f**k ☺️

💌 A beautiful email landed in my inbox this week from one of the incredible women (Jacqui) who joined me on our Graceful Alignment Ibiza Retreat, and honestly, it stopped me in my tracks.

I’m just so grateful. For every woman who said yes to herself, to healing, to connection, and to stepping into something bigger than she imagined 🫶🏻

The feedback from this retreat has honestly blown my mind, the depth of healing, the laughter, the tears, the breakthroughs… it’s been beyond words. The feelings i have felt have been so lovely 🥰

And the best part?
We get to do it all again this May 🥹💜

If you’ve been watching from the sidelines wondering if it’s your time, it might just be.☺️
This retreat isn’t about escaping life… it’s about coming home to yourself. FULLY

You’ll learn how your body, mind, and energy are connected through Traditional Chinese Medicine & the 5 Elements.
You”ll experience Qigong with the sunrise each morning, gentle yet powerful movements that balance and restore your energy, as well as emotional healing.
You’ll feel lighter, clearer, and more connected, within yourself and with others.
