I’m Lee and I run the Journey Through The Guilt Trip Program. I am a qualified coach, running my private practice for over 14 years, and an NLP Master Practitioner. Throughout my life I have had to battle my inner ‘not good enough’ demons, as well as pushing past people’s expectations or assumptions about what I could do and I finally reached a point where I thought that enough was enough. I got fed up of constantly second guessing whether I was doing the right things as a parent, a colleague, a woman, a wife - the list is endless of rules about how you live. Enough!! I have chosen to live my life guilt free, thinking about what I want my life to look like, and not getting swayed by raised eyebrows or frowns of disappointment that are only there because you are being braver than they are and they don’t like it. I’m living my own life by my rules - and I love it. I am author of Journey Through The Guilt Trip, available on Amazon, a book that explains my process to help you get rid of your guilt and create a life that works for you.  I also have podcasts, blogs and a website full of information to help you live guiltfree.  Website: www.journeythroughtheguilttrip.co.uk Email: lee.lam@leelam.co.uk Facebook: @liveguiltfree Instagram: @leelam.insta

My name is Jamie. I am a certified Wim Hof Method instructor and what I found in the Wim Hof Method has been and continues to be so effective for me that I became compelled to start Cotswold Breath and Body to share it, (and the science that backs it up), with as many people as possible. No dogma. No strings. No standing in a bath of ice worshiping Zorb. We all find the method for different reasons. Whatever yours are, welcome. I encourage you to practise in your daily life and go to a fundamentals workshop near you with a certified Wim Hof instructor like the ones we run. When I first started I was missing so much, seeing a professional really started me off on the right track. Then take it into your own life and just see how you feel, how you think. It may just change your life. It changed mine. You can find out my full story and see all our available workshops and social links on our website: Website: www.cotswoldbreathandbody.com Instagram: @cotswoldbreathandbody Facebook: @cotswoldbreathandbody

Hi! I am Kirsten Hunneyball, Peer Recovery and Life Coach based in Ballito, KZN. Having lived experience with an eating disorder, ADHD, and trauma, I am passionate about helping people reconnect with their empowered selves and navigate life's challenges. I understand that self-improvement and recovery from disordered food and body behaviours is a complicated process and that you will need support every step of the way. It is important for you to have a professional who understands the physical, mental, emotional and even spiritual elements that underlie disordered food and body behaviours and who can help you establish a life that better reflects who you are without limiting beliefs and unhelpful coping mechanisms for life’s stressors. Coaching can be a very effective tool in your process, however it is important to note that I am not a therapist or medical professional. My approach is within a coaching framework. I use methodologies such as mindfulness, meditation, nervous system regulation, accountability, somatic embodiment techniques, and spiritual development to help you deal with triggers and challenges. I will also help to equip you with empowering practical tools to utilize on a day-to-day basis so that you can show up to life as your most authentic and best self. Philosophies that align with my value system include that of Intuitive Eating, All Foods Fit, Anti-Diet, HAES, and Bottom-Up approaches to healing. Because recovery from disordered food and body behaviours is complex, and needs to be met on a biopsychosocial level, you might find the need for external support as well. The process of recovery might include dieticians, therapists, medical doctors, support groups, and more depending on your individual needs. If needs be, I will consult and collaborate with any other medical and psychological support systems you have in order to help address you as a whole rather than to isolate any one form of treatment for recovery so that you can move into a culture of lasting recovery. Coaching is not seen as the "be all and end all" of the healing process and your journey may require a multidisciplinary approach. I am happy to refer you out to professionals within my network if you need it. Contact Details Website Facebook Instagram YouTube

When Filters4Spas was founded by Phil Moseley and Gil Gingell in November 2009 replacement spa filter cartridges were expensive, difficult to get hold of and of poor quality. They made a marketing statement that their new filter cartridges, manufactured in Hangzhou China, would be of superior quality, plentiful in supply and readily available at a more realistic price; and today, that statement still stands for Darlly Europe. In June 2011 Filters4Spas became an equitable partner with Hangzhou Darlly Filtration and today that statement still stands for Darlly Europe Limited. Better Filter . . . Better Service . . . Better Price Darlly Europe now handles the logistics, supply, marketing, research and development throughout all 44 European countries in the Pool and Spa market. With over 60,000 units in stock at one time and supplying customers throughout Europe with 5 distribution centres all with a next day delivery available.

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.

More of less from birth Dean Fraser knew there existed far more than the three dimensions most of us take for granted. Since his infant years he had been offering healings; and having already experienced his fair share of personal growth opportunities (some might label them challenges...) by the late 1980’s Dean resolved to undertake a personal quest for metaphysical growth. This ongoing journey has seen him read thousands of books, travel across two continents in search of truths, network with fellow seekers of enlightenment through sharing wisdoms collectively, and personally visit countless sacred sites to attune with the energies. Over the last three decades Dean has become one of the world's leading advocates of dowsing as a means of connecting to our own intuition, also a passionate teacher of meditation and holistic lifestyles.

EFT International Accredited Trainer & Advanced Practitioner Hi, my name is Grainne O’Neill and I practice a kind of mind massage called EFT tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques) for people struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, trauma and enabling them to move forward with confidence and ease. What clients say about me is that I help them to clear the pathway for themselves and give them the tools to help themselves. And that when the going gets tough and we must tackle difficult issues, I can do this with a light touch and humour. I studied commerce at university and started my professional career working in marketing, advertising, and financial services. My interest in personal development, started several years ago when I became ill with Chronic Fatigue. Conventional medicine was unfortunately unable to help me so I had to look at alternative therapies to help me find a solution. Although I didn’t realise it, I had been constantly stressed and running from one crisis to the other. Something had to change. Originally, I trained in Coaching, Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), & Hypnotherapy. However, once I learnt EFT tapping therapy, it immediately became the primary tool that I use for myself and with clients as it is the most effective way of getting to the root of the problem quickly and making permanent changes. I now work directly with clients one to one and am also an EFT trainer for EFT International.

I’m a single mum to 4 kids and passionate about the beauty industry and how to maintain high standards. As well as look at each client’s body, work dynamics and patholgy I do a lot of research into a client’s medications (especially as now with Covid -19 in our lives client’s needs have changed) to create a tailored massage and treatment for them and their needs at the time. I’ve been running my own business now for 27 years. I started my own business because I didn’t like the conveyor belt salon aspect when I first went into the industry so with help of my parents set up simply beautiful then 15 years later to accommodate men and women called it SB Therapy. I changed the colour scheme and now my business is thriving with equal men and women attending. SB Therapy is not about pampering instead it is about mental and physical wellbeing to balance the mind and body as a whole. Through attending mental health workshops, I look to understand what clients could be going through and am then able to tailor treatments for them but also make sure they are able to get treatments they need by adapting my treatments to ensure everyone can benefit. I am now training therapists in Ashiatsu at my salon in Fife. For more information on courses available visit my website www.sbsalon.co.uk or contact me on 07828 394716 or email simplyb1995@yahoo.com. As the only trainer accredited to train therapists in the UK and beyond in this amazing modality, I hope to see you soon in taking your business, knowledge and skills forward.

WHY I CAN - AND WOULD LOVE - TO HELP YOU Hello! This is the part where I spill my heart out in a positive way… So, what brought me to my work? I’m one of those therapists that has been on their own healing journey. Coming from my fair share of trauma’s I came to understand the after math of doing ‘the work”. I value the results so much that I wanted to share the techniques and workshops to facilitate you on your own journey. Before I did the work on myself, my daily wake up call consisted of self loathing, lack of self worth, shame, fear and no self awareness of my thoughts and emotions. I was basically riddled with PTSD. So, where did my healing journey begin: It started with my Reiki attunement in 2007. Since then I’ve studied and integrated so many different disciplines. I’ve travelled globally doing 500hr yoga teacher training, Neuro linguistic programming, hypnosis, counselling, Reiki levels 1, 2 & 3, meditation, pranayama and the Wim Hof Method teacher training. The Results… self love, self worth and self awareness of my inner world. I now wake up ready for this beautiful thing we call Life.

I have been practicing yoga regularly since 2011. Firstly, to be able to better deal with the pain caused by a rheumatic disease, later to be able to better cope with the high workload at work and the hormonal changes of menopause. My own practice has developed steadily over the last few years. At first I concentrated on physical exercises - today yoga has become a philosophy of life for me in which I have established a balanced, regular practice. This ranges from: - Demanding inversions and arm balances - Slow Vinyasa classes - Regular Yin practice - Yoga Nidra - Meditations and breathing work and much more. In addition to yoga, I enjoy cycling, cooking and baking, and walking the dogs. Contact Details Email: bree@theyogahand.com Website Facebook Instagram
