About

The healing arts are intrinsic to our individual + collective wellbeing.

​They provide a gateway to a deeper, more resonant way of living in alignment with life.

The healing arts offer us heart-centred empowerment and deepened self-awareness. We discover just how interconnected we are, and make choices based on this understanding of oneness.

Music, art, energy healing, therapies, dance, movement and bodywork, holistic approaches to wellness, animal wellbeing, natural + organic farming approaches, land care, preservation + sustainability approaches, small-scale businesses, creations hand-crafted with love, earth-based teachings, and spirituality - these connect us to our soul, to the light that shines within us and which links us together across time and space.

Mountain Forest Sanctuary has been created as an answer to a call to strengthen the presence of a holistic understanding of life in the collective consciousness, to bridge the gap of doing and being in order to live attuned with our deeper essence. By increasing the visibility of those working in the field, we illuminate a pathway towards a more soulful, harmonious experience of reality. In this way, we honour the great unknown, a divine presence that is hardly fathomable, while preparing the future children for a life of conscious co-creation.

The desire to know your own soul will end all other desires.
~ Jalal al-Din Rumi, as translated by Coleman Barks

My aesthetic style tends towards simplicity and spaciousness, a place where deep breathing comes easy.

On a practical level, I have a bachelor's degree in fine arts, and more than 10 years of creating soulful content.

For 25 years I've been immersed in the energetic + healing arts, both as transformative processes for my own journey, and as support to those seeking a companion in their own unfolding. Sometimes through creativity, sometimes through writing, always through facilitation in some form. 

Today I nurture + support creatives and entrepreneurs who are also responding to this call while remaining luminous during these remarkable times.   

​Approaches to visionary fulfilment.​

I'm passionate about integrating the healing arts in community. As we make abundantly clear the extent of our inherent self-healing capabilities, the depth of our being and unlimited potential together, we strengthen the holistic understanding of who we are - both as individuals in our uniqueness, and as a collective in our oneness.
We set the space for more open hearts and compassion to move us forward together.
​This world is so much more than it appears, and the healing arts can gently and safely guide us to that inner realization.

The sense of grounding, calm and peace is palpable on the land.

Quartz, known as the 'master healer', acts as a catalyst, facilitating deep soul cleansing, bringing the whole being into balance. Having many abilities, it also increases our biomagnetic field, disperses static electricity, and generates electromagnetism. Essentially, quartz restores and amplifies our energy systems, making it a multi-faceted ally within the realm of creation.

The trees and the wisdom they carry provide understanding beyond comprehension. Like the mountain, they too speak and have much to share with those who will listen.

Do you know? Pine trees are one of the most ancient plants on this planet, having existed 3x longer than all flowering plant species. Pine cones, the fruit that contains the seeds of the pine tree, remind us of our own pineal gland, an endocrine organ tucked in the centre of the brain. The pineal gland is linked to the body's perception of light. It is believed to be the seat of our soul, linking our physical and spiritual worlds as one.

Quite naturally, the energy and insights imparted from the mountain forest weave themselves into the work I engage in, providing both humility and deepened soul connection, and ensuring respite and relief amid the noise of the online + media world. ​
