Words of appreciation from clients Healing experiences

I was guided to use crystals to help heal my condition. Geraldine and I had had encouraging experience of their power and energy personally, including her Cornish drop amethyst and moonstone pendulum for sealing up the tear in my aura after surgery. I now use one with great effect and interesting results.

Dear Geraldine, Many thanks for the two emails and the diagrams. But more to the point, many thanks for showing me what to do with my hand/arm (or should I say neck/arm/hand?!). I should have written to you before now to thank you for all the time that you spent with us (not only discussing lymph!) but I was waiting until your email arrived. What a feeble excuse because I could so easily have written in my own fair hand!
Anyway many thanks. I am doing the exercises and the hand is so much smaller - almost back to normal I think. The Breast Nurse saw it in hospital when I was having my last but one treatment (hooray!) and she was very impressed, particularly as she could see my knuckles. I can see the veins on the back of my hand which was certainly not the case before I saw you.
Many thanks again for all your help. Love from us both,
Pat H.

My 50th Birthday present to myself
It started when my husband asked me what I wanted for my 50th birthday. After a lot of deliberation and turning down ideas such as gold jewellery, a handbag, a new dress, a show in town, etc: my gut feeling was that I needed to be pampered ‘mind, body and soul’ style. I didn’t want to go to a commercial spa, I wanted a personal experience and going on line I found just that.
It was a lovely feeling to get away from London and breathe some fresh clean air – just what the doctor would have ordered! I would call my few days with Geraldine in many ways a ‘cocktail’.
On awakening each morning and taking in breathtaking views from my bedroom window, I was set up for each day. Geraldine took me on local beach walks along the Jurassic coast and we explored market towns seeing local crafts in Bridport, Lyme Regis and Burton Bradstock (amongst other retail therapy opportunities….!) She even stopped where I would call the middle of nowhere where we entered a field and collected water from a holy well said to treat ailments of the body and mind. On the nurturing side, Geraldine, being an experienced therapist for many years was able to offer many different treatments. I enjoyed my Swedish massage with lymph drainage, learning about crystals and dousing and lounging around reading about holistic health – all in an unhurried relaxing atmosphere. The breathing exercises I learned, I use on a daily basis to feel more at one with my mind, relaxed and have more general appreciation of life.
One morning, on my 50th birthday I saw spring lambs being born in a field just next to where Geraldine takes you to her class where she teaches yoga – it was here that I realised that there was more to yoga than a few writhes on the floor!
Geraldine presents food which is healthy, organic as she grows most of her own vegetables, and mainly vegetarian fat burning foods but meat options are always available.
Geraldine and I got on very well from the moment I met her when she came to meet me at Axminster station, due to her calm and relaxed nature and I felt sad waving to her as my train pulled away, Waterloo bound. I felt revitalised, renewed and like I’d seen a totally new aspect of life. It was healthy, nurturing, cleansing country life which will stay with me in my memory for eternity. I recommend every moment, thank you Geraldine.
