Let me introduce myself. I am Lily, an empath and a hypersensitive, diagnosed with mild to moderate and then severe anxiety and depression in 2010 and on medication for it for 10 years. It was supposed to be forever…
However, in 2019 I said ‘enough is enough’ and graduated as a Life Coach level 5 incorporating NLP, Hypnotherapy and Human Needs psychology 2 years later. In March 2020 I was taken off medication completely.
Then, right about that time Covid struck and I was ‘blessed’ with Long Covid symptoms as described above which alongside work pressures and my father’s stroke, led to my own mental health exhaustion. I am also 46 and menopause is Knockin’ on the Heaven’s door :)), therefore I completed a Level 2 in Understanding Menopause in the Workplace and have acquired and tried out several resources on menopause. I also completed an Autism Level 3 qualification because I am being suspected with undiagnosed ADHD and acquired resources for that, as well, all available on my website.
Now I have started on my healing journey and decided to accept and love myself even more.
That’s where it all begins…with love, self-awareness, acceptance, forgiveness and gratitude. So, I have continued to learn from experts, had therapy, have taken numerous courses and qualifications for almost every symptom and stage I have been going through, in complementary relaxation and healing therapies, among which, advanced hypnotherapy and hypnooncology with several in person CPD practice and specialist therapy courses, energy medicine- Egyptian Reiki and Theta Healing, EFT and TPT, mindfulness, alongside attending and completing a certification in fundamentals of homeopathy and immunology, several courses related to stress, anxiety and self awareness.
Thus I am knowledgeable, abreast with and also able to signpost to free services available in the UK. Currently I am completing a Level 3 in Counselling and continue on my research path on neurocoaching and neurpsychology, as I was myself a participant in experiential programmes of neuroscience, functional medicine and energy medicine, led by doctors and psychotherapists. I also provide live events, in person and online, using such resources which have helped me tremendously. Will it also help you? They may, if you practice frequently and consistency.
In my experience, it’s more about action, rather than perfection.
Come and learn how you can heal, improve mental health condition and acquire neurological hacks to help you thrive even after the worst moments. I’ve been doing all the research myself and gathered all resources so you don’t have to. And if we think of the public services and their waiting lists… I’ve also been there, 11 months before being diagnosed with FND (Functional Neurological Disorder), as I had traces of Epstein Barr virus in my body, dismissed at the time, as being just traces. However EB virus also causes paralysis and neurological symptoms and this is exactly what I was experiencing: muscle blocks, energy draining off me, confusion with early onset Alzheimer’s symptoms.
Yet I kept disappearing off waiting lists with my appointments being postponed in therapy, because I was not deemed such a serious case. You bet I’m not…I had to take my life into own hands, but I’m not a doctor or even a psychotherapist and would never recommend that anybody else dismiss serious examinations and consultant doctors’ recommendations.
About new integrated me
In 2019 November I weighed 72 kg, 2 weeks later I was 62kg, then in that summer went from 60ish to current 48.9-50, which is my ideal.
I no longer have migraines, period pain, severe colds (which were common and had me on lots of pills), now everything is managed by my brain and body, no more pills unless really necessary and always prescribed by doctors after regular checkups.
I was shy and withdrawn, couldn’t pass interviews, now I am confident, outspoken, successful in my roles as a previous Employment Specialist in a mental health hospital, progressed to Partnership Lead and former Senior Employment Officer in a council.
There is never a one size fits all and I feel that my mission is to guide, support and assist while also healing myself.
I am an empath- if you are well, I am well and together we can heal the planet. Moreover, my main human need is the need for contribution. Yes, I have taken big leaps, borrowed money and invested in myself, years in time and money, by learning and researching, but you do not have to. It’s a Win Win, for now, don’t you think?
