About me

My reiki practice ‘2Breathe Holistic Healing’ is based in Great Bookham in Surrey.
I’ve been practising Reiki since 2019 and I feel blessed I can share and help people and animals with my gift. I have helped people with anxiety, depression, injuries, mental, physical and emotional pain, stress management, pregnancy, cancer patients and so much more.

I was introduced to Reiki at a day spa in 2003, I love having beauty treatments but was a bit bored of the usual treatments and wanted to try something different. A dear friend who was with me at the time thought I was crazy going for something ‘holistic’ or a ‘tree hugging’ treatment as she called it. I was a burnt-out corporate type who thought the opportunity to lie down for an hour whether the treatment really worked or not was something worth a shot. My first treatment was a bizarre experience and left me with some unexplained physical and emotional feelings. I then for many years would find myself drifting back to having the occasional or a series of treatments. Until I met my Reiki teacher in 2017, Kathy at Horsell Healing whose treatment techniques really gelled with me as an individual. Having regular treatments brought an awareness of my own gift and ability to naturally sense pain in others and bring a sense of peace and calm to those I treat.

My holistic journey continues and I am constantly learning and assisting those that need my help. My practice as the original and traditional Usui method is a treatment-based method rather than anything that might be conveyed as a ‘hippie’ or ‘tree hugging’!

Each person experiences Reiki differently depending on their individual needs at the time. Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

Clients may or may not feel sensations during a Reiki treatment. Benefits reported by recipients include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well-being on all levels. Some people feel sensations of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colours, whilst others can have an emotional response, indicating that shifts are taking place, allowing harmony to be restored.

Reiki energy is part of the universe, and this energy is a gift to the individual from their higher power or source – whatever system of beliefs the person may have.
