In this episode, I am honoured to have my mentor, teacher, and nurturing mother-figure, Rachel Gallon. Rachel has guided me through much of my healing journey, playing a pivotal role in my education, and transition from knowledge to embodied wisdom. In this episode, we introduce you to, and speak in detail about the four stages of womanhood - Maiden, Mother, Maga, Crone. Below is a poem Rachel has written about the first three stages… Maiden You dance through life on the lightest of feet The feathers swirl around you And the sweetness of the air embraces you. From being held to being free The maiden sings her song Of wonder and delight Mother Your arms now full And your step steady The dance slows As the space for you contracts Yet your heart fuller than ever A capacity for love so great It takes your breath away Now the mother holding Giving And nourishing Sings her song of love Maga You begin to dance once more With a lilt that displays grace And with an air of magic and magnificence Aware now of the great power And force within you Holding space And hands And hearts With fullness like that which was once in your own belly And you sing your song And it is yours to sing About Rachel: As a therapist my mission is to guide and encourage women to make peace within, to know how and why self-nourishment is vital and to re-imagine a loving relationship with the True Self. Drawing from my background in Professional Kinesiology Practice and other metaphysical modalities, I offer my clients potent awareness, as well as motivation to commit to change, to evolve and to travel this earthly world widely awakened, nourished and loved. Through the building of meaningful connection with clients they can expect to be involved, inspired, and stimulated creatively meaning that what I offer is an interactive review and appraisal of information that they give, to re-frame the narrative, shift perspective, balance energy and restore clarity. Healing - becoming whole - comes from the felt experience of shifting what is old, cumbersome and no longer serves. Information may be verbally communicated or given and interpreted by me via bio-feedback from muscle testing, metaphysical understanding from physical and emotional indications as well as from intuitive guidance. I have an established international business with a foundation in Professional Kinesiology Practice with over 20 years experience of working with clients 1:1 both in person and online, teaching small classes and running women only retreats. I trained in Melbourne, Australia with the leading ICPKP college, and hold the qualification of Kinesiopractor®, and am a member of ICPKP Faculty qualified to teach the foundation course in kinesiology. I am also a trained Celebrant using ceremony to honour and celebrate all meaningful stages of life. I relocated back to her native UK in February 2022 after 20 years living in Australia and is delighted to now call South Somerset home. I have two amazing adult daughters, a husband of 38 years and will soon welcome a cocker spaniel puppy to the household.
