Hi, I'm Therese
East Coast Adventurer, truth seeker, coffee drinker...
I wonder if you can relate to being a seeker?
I’ve always been one – a seeker of knowledge, of truth, of belonging – always trying to understand the world around me.
Looking back, I see that what I was really seeking was myself.
Curiosity to understand the body at a physical level led me to studying biochemical sciences. And later, seeking wellbeing, I studied massage therapy and delved deeper into anatomy and physiology to gain a fuller picture of the body’s intelligence.
When I found myself seeking happiness and healing, I turned to an exploration of counselling studies. That’s when I began to understand why we behave the way we do—and how our patterns are shaped by past experiences and unconscious conditioning.
Led by my inner drive to find personal happiness, I stumbled upon a simple key – one that opened the door to healing and awakening to the deepest aspects of myself.
Using this key, I not only learnt how to cultivate deep relaxation and rest at ease within myself, I connected with a deeper wisdom far beyond my own – an awakening to something more.
I was seeking freedom from mental anguish: I didn’t know what awakening was…
I never set out to “awaken”. I didn’t know what that meant. Now I do – because I’ve lived it.
And it’s not some fluffy, unreachable state just for a chosen few. It’s real, it’s messy and its tangible and its available to us all.
Awakening doesn’t have to be complicated, or out of reach, in fact, it is incredibly simple and easily cultivated once we know where to direct our awareness.
I feel that I have inadvertently connected to an inner purpose that now powers me. I’m here to share the tools that supported my own awakening so others can discover their true Self and reconnect to the magic, the joy, the deep peace that arises when we remember that we are part of something so much greater than this 3D world.
I share not as an authority, but as someone walking this path beside you.
I’m not here to preach or pretend I have it all figured out. (because I haven’t) I’m here to share the simple roadmap I discovered– to offer raw, real support that helps us to stay grounded, connected, and awake in everyday life.
