I run, alongside my husband, an antique centre (The reason for the sailor suit) and we are selling the business so I can follow my spiritual path which I feel drawn to. I’ve just started spiritual healing and chakra balancing with crystals and when I do face-to-face readings I also sketch spirits that come through for the client to take home. I’ve booked my first mind body spirit fair next year and hope to do tarot and mediumship with spirit sketches. Facebook: @GuidingSensesPsychicMedium

When I was small, I was always making mixtures and concoctions, or messes as my mother would say. I would take rose petals, bits of bark, dandelions mix with water and leave it to stew for a couple of days until it was ready. I’d then pour it into little bottles that I’d dug up in the garden and have great pleasure in telling my mother it would make her feel better as I watched her drink my remedy. She never did by the way, just got very good at pretending! So, my love for natural remedy’s stems from my childhood and still goes on today. Later in life I gained my Level 3 Diploma in Animal Anatomy and Physiology, Level 3 Diploma in Holistic Therapy for Animals, Level 3 Diploma in Dog Obedience Training and now I’m studying Herbalism, one can never have enough knowledge! You never know I might even come across something that might even work for my menopause! Contact Website: deborahsdogdaycare.co.uk Stay well you lovely people. Deborah Turner AHCP ( Reg.)

My name is Darren Adam and I was on a destructive path begging for help, depressed, packed with social anxiety and PTSD. I had unprocessed childhood trauma, my time in the military as well as a motorcycle crash which all led me to therapy. In this unusual setting I found the Wim Hof Method for the first time. Finding the WHM and experiencing its power was the catalyst to my whole life changing. And now I want to help you change yours.

As a director at BGi.uk and several other related businesses I have over 40 years of experience in providing simple solutions to complex risks for clients and brokers in the UK, EEA countries and even the US. BGi.uk is possibly best known for its innovative approach to difficult (complicated/complex) risks and have used this approach in the development of the insurance provided for Holistic Therapists and alternative practitioners and teachers. We are often approached for help in business related risks – including insurance for those organising retreats and other trips which are now classified as ‘tour operator’ activities. The legal responsibilities owed by the ‘retreat organiser’ to their client goes way beyond that considered by most people. Protective insurance is recommended - and in some cases, compulsory. I hope you find the following information helpful. Contact Details Email: Nick.Elwell@BGi.uk.com LinkedIn BGi.uk Website Foyht Website

Facebook: @BalanceNutritionYarm Tel: 07985650941 Email: tui.palmer@ntlworld.com I am a qualified teacher and also a Sports Nutritionist BA(hons), BSc, MA, PGCE and have a diploma in Sports Nutrition and an Advanced Diploma in Sports Nutrition. I became interested in Sports Nutrition because I wanted to eat right, to lose fat and gain muscle as well as staying healthy and feeling fit and well. I found all the advice around very contradictory and mostly aimed at young men! I decided to learn more and enrolled on a course. People started asking me for advice especially at Evolve gym which I attend in Yarm-on-Tees: my business has grown from there. I trade as Balance Nutrition, fully insured and registered.

I am Kiasha Sylvester a holistic therapist specialising in aromatherapy, natural alternatives & reiki energy healing. After starting my spiritual journey a few years ago it became clearer to me what my calling was and how I wanted to help others create the same balance in their lives. I was a natural at it and for that I thank my parents for the upbringing and constant spiritual grounding they brought me up on. The holistic approach to life has been a game changer for me and I couldn’t imagine myself without it. I have created harmony and peace within myself and over time have managed to live and look after myself mainly off earth’s natural treasures, maintaining good physical and emotional health inside out. I work privately both face to face and over email/phone for advice and guidance. I am currently also working on selling my own natural products which I have started with aromatherapy bath salts and am working on adding to my range.

My name is Gillian and I am a qualified Shamanic Practitioner/Counsellor, Reiki Master & Teacher and Holistic Massage Therapist (so far). I started my journey 6 years ago when I was crippled with health anxiety. I knew I had to get to the root of where this was stemming from. The road eventually led me to taking a deep dive into my own past pains and traumas. I had to go within to look at everything that was pushed so deep inside of me, allow it space to breathe and acknowledge all that was, so I could eventually process it and allow it to be released. It has been, and still is at times, quite tough but it has also been the most liberating journey too. It has made me look at how I show up in the world, in many aspects of my life, so I can be the best and most authentic version of myself going forward. I have learned many tools to use in helping myself and created space for me to be able to help others on their journey too. I can only pass on the knowledge and wisdom I have gained along the way but I know how powerful those tools have been for me, which is why I'm so passionate about the work I do. Life experience will always be our best teachers and we will always be our own best healer. I simply provide a safe space for you to be able to do that. Thank you for taking the time to read my article today. With Love ❤️ If you would like to explore this beautiful and powerful healing modality more you can reach me on: Email: themedicinemum@outlook.com Instagram.

I am originally from the ‘Beautiful Rainbow Nation’ - Southern Africa. I have lived in Ireland for over 30 years in a very special place of great beauty and more importantly the local people that have supported and inspired me through this wonderful holistic journey. This place I call home - Killeshandra, Co Cavan - a countryside village surrounded by beautiful lakes, famous for its friendly people, great fishing, the amazing Killykeen Forest Park and of course music. Since a very early age, I always had a unique interest in Complementary Medicine / Holistic Therapies. So I decided to follow my dream, as it is something I truly love & believe in. Nestled in the heart of Killeshandra, is my Holistic Studio based in the Focus Resource Centre. I pursued a career in Holistic Therapies, which cover an array of subjects from Holistic Massage, Holistic Facials, Indian Head Massage, Reflexology, Thai Chi Foot Massage, Crystal Healing & Reiki.
