Someone like you: a human being with qualities and traits to improve. Someone with a story that is hardly a bed of roses, and with more or less heavy karmic and transgenerational backgrounds.
The loss of a parent upon entering teenage marked the following decade with the seal of depression, due to an incapacity to face my emotions. After those ten years, an opportunity arose (disguised as a breakup): either to keep wallowing in self pity and repeat what had not worked until then, or try another path, unknown but full of promises. Adventurer at heart, I consciously chose then to try and get out of harmful patterns to transform my pain, sorrow and anger into something lighter, softer and beautiful. My body had already been telling me for quite some years at the time that it was time to change things radically if I wanted to get a different result.
The words of the first healer I worked with still resonate within: « it takes as much time to get out of a problem than it took to get into it ». This simple statement made me realise two things: that these 10 years of depression would not be solved in one session (nor in two for that matter), and that if I wanted to truly get better, I would have to provide most of the hard work myself, whether this work was emotional, psychological, physical or spiritual. No matter how good a therapist or healer is, they are only there to hold our hand in goodwill so that we can find back our way, ideally without stumbling too much once on it.
Another decade spent working on myself led me, among other things, to a welcome career change. Exhausted by various jobs as gruelling physically as they were unsatisfying for my soul, I made the decision, once again consciously, to head towards the path of caring for the people. The profound love I have had for Nature as a whole since childhood directed me towards the world of medicinal plants and naturopathy. Simultaneously, very aware about the importance of taking all the dimensions of Man into account if any healing is to yield long-lasting results, I went on to study holistic therapy in order to have as many tools as possible to give my clients back their responsibilities in regards to their own wellbeing. Thus, working on all the dimensions of what constitutes a person (physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual, but also environmental, energetic and hygienic), I have great pleasure guiding you towards you authentic self, gently and kindly.
Thanks to various travels around the world, many transformative life experiences and a boundless curiosity that all contributed to open my perceptions, accept my emotions and put my sensitivity and various skills to the benefit of others, I now step in my role as a healer so I can help my customers to accept themselves, move forward, improve their health and develop their wellbeing, step by step, in love and gratitude. For without love, progressing on the path of life can be arduous, and without gratitude, Man would not be what he is – a bridge between The Earth and the Universe.
My values
The Universe has always sent kind people my way when I needed them. Forever grateful towards these beings who have patiently guided me in the darkest of times, always with love and compassion, I strive to develop these virtues as much as possible each and every day and implement them in my practice.
Love: Love is all. It is healing, it is compassion, it is acceptance, it is selflessness. It is a guide and an extension of the divine within, and this is what I strive to inspire in my clients through a practice based on the cultivation of universal love – love that is found within everyone and within everything, free from judgment and condition.
Benevolence: the desire to see someone else’s happiness and wellbeing realised. Benevolence is critical in my caring practice as I endeavour to encourage and support each customer to look for the best within themselves through my determination to see humanity thrive, one being at a time.
Compassion: compassion is a precious virtue that allows us to accept our humanity through connecting to someone’s difficult experiences without looking down at them. It allows us to understand and share one’s suffering without appropriating it, and pushes us to help our fellow humain beings through empathy. It is a cornerstone in most religions worldwide, although it may be named or expressed in a different way (charity, solidarity, mercy…). Compassion is at the heart of what it truly means to be human.
Gratitude: without it, it gets difficult to rise and shine! Gratitude puts us on a path of acceptation and humility. These three principles are intimately bound together and form a solid foundation for a down-to-earth, dedicated spirituality. The five stages of grief lead us through denial, anger, bargaining and depression before we reach acceptance. This acceptance is a token of humility in the face of the harrowing ordeals of life. Once accepted and embraced (even exalted in a second phase), it is possible to attain a state of continuous gratitude, for the precious lessons brought by these difficult events help our soul grow and feed our positive evolution.
Patience: without patience, how could we reach our highest goals? Patience is an invaluable ally on one’s life’s path, as much as on that of greater wellbeing. Even in the most favorable conditions, a seed needs time to grow its most beautiful fruits. No one can rush what needs time to grow, and the humanity within each and everyone is no exception to the rule. Patience teaches us to accept and honour where we are at in each moment, reminding us that just like the Universe, we are perfectly imperfect and that life is perfect this way!
Free will: freedom of choice is of utmost importance in my practice. I make sure to always have your consent to implement various protocols and cleansing processes regardless of the session you choose. In naturopathic sessions, we elaborate lifestyle adjustments together so that these are realistic and manageable and can be followed in your daily routine.
Respect: as a basic value of fraternal humanity, respect is always put in the spotlight in my sessions. Respect for your dignity, for your story, your beliefs and convictions, your life choices… Through caring, respectful and considerate listening, I offer a different perspective, free from judgment so I can help you overcome your troubles and face your challenges, gently and peacefully.
All these values are intrinsic to the work I provide during my sessions and are underlying to my practice, advice, care and support. They also apply to my own relationship to the natural world, be it with plants and trees, animals and birds, or bodies of water and mountains. Against the tide of the modern tendency to build walls ever higher between Man and Nature, my approach aims at being ever more in harmony with this nature. It is not rare to see me converse with birds and plants, make offerings to the forest and rivers, and laugh with butterflies and wildflowers alike. Far from any religious dogma, I live the day-to-day experience of connection to the divine within all things and all beings, transcending various limited concepts instilled by priests of all persuasions as much as by dogged advocates of reductive modern science. I am committed to consciously observe all that connects beings together and to learn from these relationships, ever more filled with wonder as I discover the beauty of Life and the workings of the Universe, each day a bit further than the previous one. The realisation of Unity through the acceptance of multiplicity opens the way to a global and accepting understanding of our rightful place on Earth. The teachings of Buddhism and mystical traditions of all backgrounds have reminded me that the other is but a reflection of myself, and thus that one’s true happiness depends on the happiness of all. My greatest inspiration is, therefore, the invaluable gift of witnessing my clients and kin joyfully blossoming in their true self!
