About Louisa
Many people come to this work carrying stress, overwhelm, burnout, or emotional fatigue. They are searching for a way to reconnect with themselves, regulate their nervous system, and feel grounded again.
That is where my work begins 🙏
“My work is gentle, grounded and tailored to your individual comfort level. No previous breathwork or personal development experience is needed.”
My personal connection to healing and regulation began early in life through horses, nature, and the quiet awareness that comes from deep attunement.
I have ridden horses since I was 6 years old. It was literally the only thing I felt I was good at as a child living in a chaotic, unbalanced world of confusion. A daughter of 3 siblings, where there was no time or room for any emotional support. The stables really was the only place I felt seen and recognised, until one day the stables I loved—the place I felt safe, the place I spent any free moment—took away the horse I loved. The horse that was too difficult and misunderstood by anyone else but I felt was mine.
With no warning, no explanation, she was gone.
Yes, she was a horse that would bolt, she was completely unpredictable—but so was I. What I now realise, some 3 decades later, is that she just mirrored the unheard, unseen me. Which is exactly why the connection we had was so strong. Even in my unconscious state, we understood each other.
What followed that loss really was years of struggle. Wearing a mask, being strong, having to win, having to lead, having to hold it all together. That was my mantra for years to come, and career-wise it stood me well, and I had lots of success. I was stronger, more determined than anyone else.
My deep, strong passion to be seen, heard and noticed led my whole life. My success in everything I did and my business came first, life was second. It wasn’t ego—it was a need to make all that past stuff feel better. I couldn’t not be heard or fail.
My strong continued determination, and a very special horse that came into my life named Boomerang, made me want to change the world for horses and led me to launch my own business in the equine industry some 10 years ago. I did with my heart open. I did this believing I would be embraced, and I went in totally vulnerable. No boundaries, people pleasing, no love for me—just love for the horse and the people that were just doing their best with the years of stuff they were carrying around.
What a way to function in the sometimes harsh world we live in!
Having come close to a mental breakdown some years ago, after supporting a young girl who I recognised as that young troubled girl in me, I knew I had to walk away from me and this role—or find change.
After much pain and then the soul searching, I firstly found the only quiet, authentic place to be was in the silent communication of my horses. Talking at this point wasn’t going to help. Walking around the countryside with them was giving me some strength.
This, along with the support of several amazing divine feminine women and their teachings, my life has changed. The despair of being here, on this unconscious planet, has gone away. Being with my horses, experiencing the wonderful support of groups during Cacao Ceremonies and 18 months of weekly breathwork sessions life really does feel different.
I do also realise that real life here on this planet, at this time, means action is vital to function and live. Having run my national equestrian business for the past decade that grew beyond my expectations, working directly with 500+ clients annually, I am well aware of the pressures of work-life balance.
Alongside my career I am mum to a gorgeous ADHD child, a wife, a dressage rider at heart, and an entrepreneur. I know what comes if you are not one to follow the crowd, not to fit into a box, and not to fall into a society that wants you to be part of the gang!
Choosing my own path has had to come with its own price, but working hard on a deep inner knowing, an inner strength, an authentic guidance and belief through my actions has meant that I could continue in the valuable work, where horses gained the biggest benefits.
Shutting out the noise, feeling the truth, going to that deeper place of knowing that guides you to a better place makes joy possible.
Having realised how much this self-development work made the impossible feel possible, calming my nervous system, allowing me to function with self-worth, boundaries and a positive outlook - I have created my own unique way of delivering these beautiful support services. I trained as a massage therapist over 20 years ago so I intuitively use touch and pressure. I trained 12 years ago to level 3 as a counsellor with ABC Awards. I have trained with AIR Breathwork school who work with a gentle conscious connected breath. Inspired Healing trained for holding Cacao Ceremonies. Athena Herd trained to level 4 for Equine Assisted Interactions. And currently half way through my training as a Trauma Informed Somatic Counsellor. I am fully insured and accredited through the ACCPH. All nature based, nervous system regulation led treatments. Whether we are guided through going deep into breathwork on land or in warm water, bringing the horse's into this healing space or we feel into a group ceremony sharing ceremonial cacao. Whatever brings you here, we find the best path for your own personal needs. It takes time and work—but the magic that comes, the inner peace, is so worth it!!
If you feel drawn to know more, if you feel you are ready to quiet some of the mind noise, make some changes to find a better way of living life, get in touch. Louisa would love to discuss supporting you in this change.
