Can't sleep? Exhausted? Looking awful?
Worried about the long term affects of sleep deprivation on your health?
I know personally what it’s like to suffer from insomnia night after night, month after month, year after year. I looked 10 years older than I was and felt awful all the time.
Being a business owner myself, I am fully aware of how lack of sleep ruins your creativity, affects your relationships and has serious effects on your health.
Lack of sleep and vitality will affect the way you look and you’ll age faster.
To look good, you need to sleep well, eat well, move and breathe!
Drugs are often the only thing being recommended by professionals for insomnia, but drugs have side effects internally and externally.
Using tools to calm the mind, physical cleansing techniques and nutrition, in the right order, you can overcome your insomnia and improve your vitality.
I’m delighted to run bespoke retreats at the location of your choice.
“Our study is the first to conclusively demonstrate that inadequate sleep is correlated with reduced skin health and accelerates skin aging. Sleep deprived women show signs of premature skin aging and a decrease in their skin’s ability to recover after sun exposure” Dr Elma Baron

Your host
I’ve been passionate about natural healing ever since my twenties when I was a fitness instructor and esthetician. As the years rolled on, I realised that I didn’t need to pound the streets, or lift weights in the gym to be healthy and look good, what I needed was balance. I found that balance through yoga, breathing and Ayurveda. In fact, it changed my life.
I went from a seasoned insomniac to someone who sleeps normally and feels amazing most of the time using the tools I’m teaching now.
Many people asked me about how I used the breath to take away the prison of insomnia, so I decided to write a book which I’ve recently published, ‘Breathe Better, Sleep Better’. I wanted to share one of the most important lessons I learned about life through the breath. The more you try to control the breath, the more you restrict the breath. You get less not more. That applies to life too. In order to be healthy and sleep well, you need more space, less control and to be more present.
One of the fundamental reasons I started running retreats was because I realised that people needed the space and time to let go of the stress they accumulate through sleep deprivation and over work. It’s very difficult to do it alone and it becomes too tempting to turn to drugs for respite from sleeplessness.
I believe that health and good sleep is possible when you are in balance. You don’t need drugs. The only way to achieve balance is to learn how to make the right lifestyle choices and rituals that keep you healthy.
