What's all this talk about Ancestors?
Ancestral work is bubbling up into western mainstream consciousness right now. Why? Well because as we expand our consciousness and deepen into our personal healing journeys we seem to naturally hit a point where we realise we are missing something. We also become aware of a sense that we might be carrying things that feel bigger than us or do not seem to belong to us. Ancestral work is a realm where science meets spirituality. It's new and yet it's ancient. If offers us the opportunity to reclaim long-forgotten powers from the past which enable us to step forward into a more loving, joyful, harmonious future. Without ancestral connection and healing, we cannot evolve into the true power and potential of our full Selves and unity consciousness. It offers a vital branch to the tree of life, or more accurately, the roots which sustain us and from which we grow.
Ancient and indigenous cultures honour their ancestors as part of daily life; always have and always will. Think Native Americans, Maori’s, Mexico’s Day of the Dead, Taoists etc. For thousands of years, people have known that honouring the ancestors was a necessary and positive part of life. Intrinsically linked to the natural cycles of the earth, indigenous peoples see no separation, no endings and no beginnings between the living and the dead. Here in Britain, we too descend from indigenous culture, only we have to go back 2000 years or so to rediscover it. When we do, we not only experience the benefits of ancestral reverence, we also rediscover our roots and the magic of our Celtic and Neolithic heritage....and so much more!
My passion is helping others to reconnect with the Ancestors in ways which are relevant and supportive to every day lives in a modern world. I offer personal sessions and group workshops.

The Call of the Ancestors Workshop

Reconnecting with or Ancestors brings a wealth of benefits...
Behind us stand thousands of ancestors, people who lived here on earth before us, people from whom we have come into physical being. Our ancestors may be dead, but they are still with us, both in spirit form and in our bodies through the inherited aspects of our DNA.
Through reconnecting with and working with our ancestors we uncover many buried treasures:
In working with our ancestors, we often discover helpful insights for ourselves:
Through reconnecting with and working with our ancestors we uncover many buried treasures:
- a deeper sense of place
- a deeper sense of belonging
- feelings of support and holding
- a right to be here
- a right to take up space
- the context for our own lives that we may have felt was missing
- real clarity on our life's purpose or mission
- specific skills or strengths inherited from the family line
- a greater sense of the sacredness of life
- humility, empathy, love
In working with our ancestors, we often discover helpful insights for ourselves:
- we carry our own medicine and have all the answers we need inside
- we are stronger, wiser, more creative, more talented, more courageous, more resilient (insert your own word) than we realised
- we are really loved and we matter
- we can enjoy our lives, relax and have fun
My work follows a three step process...

Here's a bit of what this work has given others...
"Connection with my ancestors was much more important than I’d realised. I’ve learnt that they’re there to support me, and encouraging me to do the work I’m here to do and that it’s more important than I’ve given it credit for. I’ve been keeping myself small and for all our sakes I need to get BIG!!"
"Feels like there have been some really big shifts and I’m more and more connected in different ways than I was before. It’s given me an understanding of who I am, permission to grow up and into my power, to step into my adult but embrace my child, and to do things that feel right for me, not just what I’m told to do, or waiting for validation."
"It stays with me, like a door that’s been opened and can’t be closed once you know what’s behind it. So a great leap in my spiritual growth, another piece of the puzzle in place. My work has been validated, the ancestors are at my back gunning for me and I have to do this for them as well as for me."
"This is deep, intuitive, spiritual, soul work. Revealing, unearthing, healing, Journeying and powerful."
"I have learnt that perhaps I’m the woman in a particular line who does not have to accept being suppressed; that I maybe hid bits of myself for later healing, rather than them being lost or damaged."
"Meeting and working with a guide reminded me I have the capacity to heal myself, to change the story I carry in my head but also in my body."
"Ancestral connection has given me more context. Which helps bring more compassion for myself. And reminds me about compassion for my parents and the problematic relatives.
"It feels like being gifted a medicine story. One which perhaps continues to open up and reveal meaning or insight over time."
