My brain exists in constant buzz mode, and for a long while it was all I knew. It doesn't quieten and also needs relentless order. The intricacies of life become frequently all-consuming and totally overwhelming.
This has been compounded by the last fifteen years, which have been somewhat challenging; caring for and losing my parents to cancer and Alzheimer’s, a late discovery of Autism and ADHD, homeschooling, navigating grief, trying to make sense of my brain and attempting to claw back some kind of life in my mid-forties.
In a bid to quieten my busy brain and to try and help me through the more tumultuous times during these years; I tried, studied and practised many different types of wellbeing and therapy activities; mindfulness and meditation, MBSR, CBT, yoga, DBT, EFT, EMDR, talking therapies, counselling, journalling, hypnotherapy – to name but a few!
However, I always struggled with the concepts but stoically followed them in the belief that something might eventually ‘click’.
With time, I eventually found out that some of them are simply not suited to how my brain works. I also now understand that this was all just part of a sometimes frustrating, but also fascinating journey.
Beautiful things happened on this journey; I met, worked and trained with wonderful people and I finally found, became obsessed with (!), and subsequently trained in; Yoga Nidra, Sound Healing with Shamanic Practices, Forest Bathing and Reiki.
Over time, these practices have brought ‘me home to myself’; I have found a sense of calm, a sense of purpose, an understanding of my values and beliefs and where they sit in this increasingly mad world.
Subsequently, Natura Robur was born....... to Rest and Nourish the Soul
