Why Do Inner Work?
There’s a saying, “old habits don’t open new doors“, which means, life will put us in the same situations again and again, until we learn to do things differently. And we can’t do that until we heal, grow and awaken through inner work.
Inner work is the process of deep, embodied, self-exploration that helps us to identify, unpack and heal our psychological material, then reintegrate it back into the wholeness of our being. It’s a life-changing journey that gradually frees us from the limiting beliefs, stuck emotions, deficient feelings and energetic blockages that have adversely influenced our entire life. It leads us to greater clarity, freedom and wholeness, allowing us to live with more peace, purpose and authenticity.
Inner work is most effective when done with embodied presence, an accepting heart and an open mind. It requires courage, curiosity, compassion and commitment, but the rewards of investing in yourself are enormous and eternal. No other investment will benefit you now and forever.
The Two Sides of Inner Work
Psychology and spirituality are simply different frequencies of our consciousness. Psychological healing works on the lower frequencies of our consciousness, while spiritual awakening activates the higher frequencies.
Deep psychological healing is the key to spiritual awakening and greater wellbeing because the more low-frequency baggage we release, the higher we can ascend and the freer we feel.
The more psychological healing and reintegration we do, the more we embody our true spiritual nature – pure awareness, presence, groundedness, peace, bliss, love, compassion, wisdom, strength and empowerment.
Embodying more of our spiritual nature or soul, calms our nervous system, and develops its capacity, tolerance and resilience. This, in turn, increases the sensitivity of our consciousness, allowing it to penetrate deeper into our psyche to reveal and heal even deeper psychological material.
The Nondual Influence
Nonduality is the recognition that, fundamentally, there is no separation between us. So, nondual presence enables me to sense things within your body and soul, as if they were my own. This allows me to assist with the identification, deepening into, and healing of your psychological material. It also helps your soul to more easily access spiritual states and dimensions, via attunement with mine.
It is most effective when you are consciously with me (in embodied presence), because two souls are more effective than one. However, I can’t make your system connect with or release specific issues. Your system determines what material is ripe for processing, and when. My role is to create and hold the space for this to occur, and to guide and support you through your process. So, I can’t do the work for you, but I can do it with you.
It’s similar with the spiritual aspect of inner work. I can readily access spiritual states and dimensions, which can help your soul to access them too. However, I can’t make anything happen – I can only create the resonant field, then it’s up to your soul to decide if it’s ready and willing to join me there. Usually, the more time we spend inquiring together, the more your soul will attune and awaken.
The Practicalities
I’m based in the UK but I work exclusively on Zoom, which allows me to support clients all over the world.
Inner work requires spiritual presence, not physical presence, i.e. we don’t need to be in the same room. The non-local nature of consciousness, energy, space and time, means powerful transformations can happen wherever you are in the world.
Working on Zoom is so convenient because there’s no travel time or stress, and being the comfort of your own home allows you to feel more relaxed and go deeper, quicker.
No special preparation is required for a Zoom session, you simply need to sit in a comfortable chair with your computer, tablet or phone in front of you. Then click the Zoom link in your booking confirmation email to join the session at the scheduled time.

What is inner work?
Inner work the process of healing the wounded, deficient, unworthy, overwhelmed and conditioned parts of us, and reintegrating them back into the wholeness of our being.
Inner work begins by feeling into and working through the psychological material (emotional wounds, deficient feelings and core beliefs) that is holding us back. This liberates our soul’s essence that’s bound up in those conditioned parts of us. The more essence we liberate, the more we awaken to the inherent wholeness and spiritual nature of our “being”.
How can inner work help me?
Inner work can help if you feel lost, stuck, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, unmotivated, unfulfilled, not good enough or worthless. Your soul is calling out for you to awaken from the mundane world of the ego-self, and inner work is the pathway home. It can help you to improve your life on every level – physically, energetically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually – to rediscover your essential self and improve your sense of wellbeing. Investing in “inner work” not only makes your life better now; it makes the rest of your life better, and all of your future lives better.
What happens in a session?
Each session is unique because each client is unique – with a different level of consciousness, different levels of wounding, fear, sensitivity, capacity and resilience, and different goals. I’ll meet you exactly where you are in each moment, so you’ll get exactly what your system needs. Some sessions may focus on emotional regulation, some on coaching, some on healing, and some on self-discovery and awakening. But generally speaking we’ll begin by sitting and talking, while sensing down into our bodies. We may close our eyes as we deepen into your somatic or emotional experience. I will be right there with you, energetically speaking, because my empathic connection and nondual awareness allow me to sense what’s going on in your body, heart, mind and soul.

How to prepare for healing and awakening?
The more prepared you and your nervous system are, the faster and easier your journey of healing and awakening will feel. So, before you begin, I highly recommend spending a few weeks cultivating your somatic awareness (improving your mind-body connection) and developing your capacity to tolerate uncomfortable feelings. Working somatically allows us to access psychological material that your conscious mind isn’t yet aware of. The body gives us to access the wounds, and the mind allows us to understand the body’s wisdom. This is why a good mind-body connection is a prerequisite for effective inner work.

The False Self (who I am not)
Unless we are enlightened or self-realised, we we have lost touch with “who we truly are”, and we live from a mentally-created false self or ego-self. Our belief that we are our ego-self makes us feel separate and insecure – cut off from the unity and oneness.
The Key to Happiness
We are all looking for happiness in different places, but the places all have one thing in common – they are outside of ourselves. And that’s the issue, because when we look outside of ourselves, our level of happiness goes up and down like a roller-coaster in response to external events.
5a: An Esoteric Theory of Everything
For decades, scientists have been trying to devise a single unified theory to explain all known physical phenomena, but a model that appears to unite the seemingly incompatible String Theory and Standard Model has existed for 100 years. It described baryons, mesons, quarks and preons over 50 years before conventional science.
