In the last couple of years, I have been keeping myself busy with helping women understand how herbs and a more holistic approach to life can help with menopause, stress, anxiety, and even sleep deprivation. In-between this, running my doggy day care business and a bit more studying and gaining qualifications, has been going on - Herbalism level 3 and Advanced level 4, Biochemic Medicine part one. Over the next couple of years I am will am studying Biochemic Medicine part two, Allergies and Treatments, and also training to be an Advanced Stress Consultant. I have thoroughly enjoyed doing all of this and will continue doing so. If you would like to contact me regarding any of the above, I am more than happy to help.

Born and raised in Munich, Germany, I spent a couple of years living in different countries before moving to the south of Spain. My life’s path has been anything but linear. Despite gaining a master’s degree in psychology in 2018, it took me a few more years to start working in a related field.

My name is Nicole Robertson and I’m a qualified Life Coach, Counsellor and Positive Psychologist. At a young age I became unwell and this caused a serious decline in both my physical and mental health. From this I decided to dedicate my life to helping people to live the best version of their lives, this was when Buoyant Therapy was born. I really struggled to decide on what kind of therapist I wanted to be, so I kept my options open by looking at holistic therapies. I now have three diplomas and plan on adding to this continuously. My business allows me to help people with almost anything by treating the person as a whole rather using one specific area and using various coaching and counselling skills.

I like to turn the Biology, Chemistry and Physics syllabus into an extension of the things my students enjoy. You enjoy football, then let's use players to learn about the periodic table! You have a love of dogs, let's set up a course for your pet and learn about speed and acceleration. If your main goal is to improve grades, then I can teach you how to play 'beat the examiner'. The key to success is finding something you enjoy and then turning 'work' into a game. Sessions can be conducted at a time to suit you from the comfort of the student's own home. I can also provide group sessions, with either friends of your child or other students. This allows for collaborative learning as well as reducing the cost by splitting it between the students. Any group sessions you wish your child to join, will consist of no more than 4 students in total. Individual and group sessions will be tailored to the interest of your child. Together we can increase subject knowledge, but more importantly learn how to apply that knowledge to test and exam questions. So, if you or your child are getting increasingly frustrated with below expected grades, and when seeking help you are told they need to revise more, then you have come to the right person. Revision will only get a student so far, if they don't know how to play beat the examiner, no amount of increased revision will help, confidence begins to drop and a downward spiral can occur. No one likes to work hard revising, only to get a poor score and be told they need to revise more. Learn to play the game! Contact Details Email: deb@aae-uk.com LinkedIn

I discovered laughter wellness and Laughter Yoga at the time I was seeking holistic aids for my emotional distress and physical pain. I was hooked from the minute I started practising! I was truly amazed about the positive impact laughter had on my health. So much that I wanted to inspire and motivate others to bring more laughter into their lives and this inner desire led me to graduate with distinction in Laughter Therapy through the Centre of Excellence. I also became a certified Laughter Facilitator and was trained as a Laughter Yoga Leader under the guidance of Lotte Mikkelsen, Laughter Ambassador and Laughter Yoga Master Trainer in the UK. Passionate for personal growth, I practise breathwork and meditation as well, which perfectly complement my regular laughter routine. So naturally I continued my training by qualifying in running meditation groups, and I am currently working towards a Meditation Teacher accreditation and a Breathwork Instructor certification. After the loss of my job in an animal rescue hospital in 2020 due to Covid 19, I made the decision to devote my time promoting the benefits of laughter, and the power of meditation and breath. I recently set up my business "Nurturapy" where I offer online Laughter Yoga group classes with some combined with meditation. I am bilingual in French and English, and can deliver them in either language depending on the audience. In the future, I plan to deliver Laughter Yoga and breathwork combined classes (once certified), offer one-to-one laughter sessions, and create and run laughter wellness workshops in the workplace for charities and corporate organisations. Come and join me, let's laugh, breathe and meditate together! Ha ha!
