Overcoming stress and pain: Why I founded Wellbeing with Emma
How it all started…..
I began practising yoga regularly in 2015. When I stepped onto my mat that first time, I was a very different person to today. I was stressed, overwhelmed and had been suffering with chronic back pain for so long, I couldn’t remember not being in pain. All this meant that I wasn’t sleeping well and I was constantly turning to comfort food (especially sugar!), shopping and alcohol to support and distract me.
Yoga and mindfulness helped me to build strength and flexibility back into my body, then my mind. It helped me to tune into what feels good for my body and more importantly what doesn’t! I soon learned that sitting on chairs is one of the worse things for my back, which is why you often see me sitting on the floor!
I was hooked pretty much immediately and I’ve since found that yoga is beneficial to all parts of my life. The ability to manage pain and stress through regular yoga and meditation practice is transformational. In 2019 I decided to train as a yoga teacher, to deepen my personal practice, learn more and share this wonderful practice.
I started Wellbeing with Emma in 2021. Initially, I offered one yoga class per week online, this has grown and expanded over time. In December 2023 I left my corporate job, so that I could give this wonderful business all of my energy and create even more magic.
Going deeper……
Through yoga I discovered Reiki healing and the powerful transformations it offers. I started to train in Reiki healing in 2020. Reiki has enabled me to deepen my meditation practice and protect and boost my energy levels. It has also enabled me to heal on a deeper level and in particular deal with self confidence issues and feelings of low self worth.
I love to offer Reiki to others, supporting their healing journey and enabling them to learn more about their energy system. Energy work is such a privilege, in 2024 I start to train people in Reiki, supporting them to learn about this sacred practice, so that they can offer self-healing to themselves and healing to others.
In Summer 2021 I trained as a wellbeing coach. The training was transformational and I find coaching people to live more mindfully and be healthier and happier very fulfilling.
It is a joy to see people blossom and become the best version of themselves.
All the energy work I have done led me to a love of crystals and the magical properties each has. I use them everyday to support me and my energy. In 2024 I qualified in Crystal Healing - a powerful energy healing which uses crystals to balance the energy system.
