NADA Acupuncturist, Somatic Trauma-Informed Coach & Therapist, Akashic Records Guide, Bioresonance Scans & Detox Protocols I am a crazy South African living in bonny Scotland with my hubby, two beautiful children, our foster Frenchie, and two guineas, Roro and Middy. I love people, ideas, playing and babies, (and chocolate cake.) Before my deeply transformational awakening in 2017, I was a journal

ist and owner of a community newspaper, running large-scale events alongside it. Since the awakening, I have been studying and practising Reiki, healing, and coaching and in 2019, I received my Acudetox Practitioner certificate, which is a game-changer for people suffering from anxiety, addiction, trauma and sleep disorders. We immigrated to the Netherlands in 2019 and again, 6 months later (during Covid-19) to beautiful Scotland. I worked, then abruptly didn't...
So I was thrown back into the world of self-employment and published my book, Break Those Damn Rules, an intimate journey of self-discovery and overcoming addiction. My scared little inner child, became triggered again and I anxiously worked myself into a frenzy, trying to find my anchor, my compass to guide me back home to self, but instead, I lost myself in the process and became everything to everyone, in the hopes of being accepted and validated. After experiencing burnout, twice, I became a certified Happiness Facilitator in 2022 and slowly started unhooking my own limiting self-beliefs. In October 2023 I took the final leap of faith and left the business world, to come back to helping individuals on their journey of self-discovery and self-love. I recently completed my Trauma-Informed and Hypnosis Training, which are fantastic tools to help my clients heal. I am intuitive in my healing and coaching sessions and will use a variety of tools to help my clients get unstuck and live the life they dream of. (I do work with the support of Spirit, so don't be surprised if one or two pop in for a session, wanting to work with you.) I love working with people who want to heal and increase their sense of joy, and have an affinity with young people who could do with some guidance, love and confidence. Not only do I use the tools that I have studied, but I also draw from my lived experiences which stem from childhood trauma, suicide, depression, addiction and a sense of displacement from immigration. I have intimate knowledge of dealing with people who are Neurodiverse and understand your superpowers. How I like to work, is start our session off with a Quantum Body Scan Analyser. You see, the secret is, our emotions, trauma and addiction is simply stuck energy, that has not been released. Yes, outside influences, such as the things we eat, drink, see, hear, feel, do and inhale will have impact our body, mind and spirit, but nothing compares to the emotions. The way we respond to the world around us, is what shows up in our organs. That is why I love working with the Quantum scan, so I can find out where you store your anger, frustration, fear, sadness and so on and then through the many tools at our disposal, together, we can help you to rid yourself of these toxins. So if you are ready and willing to make the changes, I am here to support you on your journey to belong and learn to love yourself completely.

Feeling tense or overwhelmed today? Small shifts in your body can calm your mind. Somatic breathwork is a gentle way to reset.

Pause for a moment. Place one hand on your heart, the other on your belly. Take three slow, deep breaths. Notice any sensations that arise.

The mental health crisis is a nervous system crisis. People are overwhelmed, exhausted and disconnected, and too many are waiting until they reach crisis point before they receive help. Pathfinder exists to offer safe, practical, trauma-informed support that helps people regulate, reconnect and begin to recover before things become unmanageable.

That's exactly why NADA belongs in the conversation.

We need more accessible, practical, trauma-informed ways to help people regulate their nervous systems, feel grounded, and begin to heal.

If you're a therapist, coach, or wellbeing practitioner feeling like talking alone isn't enough, this is for you.

Back in 2004, I hit a breaking point. Working long hours and feeling under pressure to do even more took its toll. As a veterinary nurse, I was dedicated to caring for others, but I hadn’t yet learned how to care for myself.

After that breakdown, I knew I needed to explore new ways to manage my own mental health. That’s when I found Reiki and spiritual healing. I loved it and became a Reiki practitioner. I then studied NLP and hypnotherapy, intending to start a practice, but building a business turned out to be a whole different skill set. Helping people is one thing. Finding people and creating a business around it is another, and back then, no one taught me how.

So I went back to doing what was familiar and comfortable.

The joys of early menopause ended my career as a veterinary operations manager - no one had a clue what was going on with me (including me)!

Over the years I worked on myself, learning many ways to self heal. I found my "Why".

I set up businesses, learned from the best coaches, and grew fast and furious. It was one hell of a rollercoaster!

Fast forward to 2024. I felt myself spiralling again. But this time, I recognised the signs. I turned back to what had worked before, and it took the edge off things, but my nervous system was shot to pieces. It was time to ask for help. I started to look at what else I could do that might help. that’s when I discovered the NADA protocol. I went to see Lynn Erasmus for a NADA acupuncture session, and I loved it. It was exactly what I needed. So much so that I decided to train in it myself and started working alongside Lynn as a facilitator at Pathfinder.

Now, I’m doing what I once only hoped for, I’m helping others not just with NADA, but also practising the Reiki and hypnotherapy skills I’ve gathered along the way. I feel so at peace.

At Pathfinder we train Somatic Trauma Informed Coaches, and now we are teaching the NADA protocol and training practitioners too. But here’s the difference: at Pathfinder, we’re not just teaching the NADA protocol. We’ve added the piece I wish I’d had years ago: a business module. We don’t just certify practitioners, we help you gain the business skills to set up your therapy practice, and we offer regular supervision and support as you grow.

It’s come full circle for me and now I get to help others bridge that gap with confidence.

If you’re ready to start your own business, helping others heal, learn NADA, and also step forward as a practitioner with real-world support, I’d love to see you join us.

Love Wendy Sneddon Pathfinder Facilitator

What is Somatic Safety?

It is the foundation of healing. When your nervous system feels safe, your body can finally release what it's been holding onto. At Pathfinder CIC, we believe that true transformation begins when you feel secure in your own body. This isn't about avoiding difficult emotions, but creating the internal conditions where healing can naturally unfold.

Trauma lives in the body.
Your nervous system remembers what your mind may have forgotten. When we're in survival mode, anxiety and fear take the wheel. But when your body feels safe, you access your natural wisdom, resilience, and capacity for change. This is where transformation begins.

At Pathfinder CIC, we specialise in creating somatic safety as the foundation for your healing journey.

We combine evidence-based modalities with compassionate, trauma-informed care.

What does 'feeling safe' mean to you? Share in the comments below.

Most people don’t need more motivation.
They need a moment to feel safe in their own body again.

Try this. Right now.

Drop your shoulders.
Unclench your jaw.
Take a slow breath in through your nose… and a longer one out.

Again.

Just noticing what comes up.

That tight feeling in your chest?
That constant thinking?
That’s not you being broken.
That’s your nervous system doing its job a little too well.

Now imagine being able to help someone else feel that shift…
in minutes.

That’s exactly what we teach inside our NADA + Somatic Trauma-Informed training.

It’s simple, practical, and it works with the body, mind & spirit.

Our next two cohorts are starting to fill up; Glasgow (17 May) & Perth (6 June), which will be the last ones till September.
We host small groups, and there is lots of hands-on practice.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re missing something in your work with clients…
This might be it.

Message me “TRAINING”, and I’ll send you the details.
