GETTING THE GATEWAY READY.
One of the fabulous benefits of having 9 months of pregnancy is that it gives us time to adjust and prepare for what is without a doubt one of the biggest transitions in life. The first trimester is often a time of wonder or maybe shock, excitement but with a edge of nerves and worry and anticipation of what is to come.
A WHOLE NEW LEVEL
Before having children, I loved my sleep. I loved my space. More on point would be to say, my nervous system loved my sleep and loved my space .

Carolines has been on a path of healing and self-discovery for over 20 years. Having trained as a psychotherapist 15yrs ago it quickly became apparent that working with the psyche alone was a one dimensional approach with limited scope. Having always had a strong connection to the natural world, the study of plants was a natural coming home of sorts. Caroline now combines her experience and training in many modalities to offer a unique natural mind-body approach, offering people an oppurtunity to co-create a sustainable, mind-body health and wellbeing plan through the use of plants, purpose & the power of the psyche.
