Talitha’s Story
As a teenager I started practicing yoga to help my tennis game and to manage the stress of daily life. At 17 I experienced a roller coaster ride with my health, doctors suggested more medication… but I decided ‘I want to heal holistically first’ and this is when my journey began. I did everything to feel like myself again, rest, yoga, reiki, crystal healing, nature. By the time I graduated school I felt like a whole new person and couldn’t believe the power of holistic healing.
I was awarded a scholarship in the U.S. to play college Tennis so moved to North Carolina and had an experience of a lifetime. Unfortunately I tore my ACL playing tennis, this left me unable to walk for months and I required knee surgery. I felt as if I had no purpose in life so turned to drinking, partying, and completely lost my identity, forgetting the power of holistic healing.
During this process I decided to pursue a degree in Exercise Science & Kinesiology as I knew it would aid my healing and I was passionate about the human body. However, COVID hit as I was recovering from my surgery which meant I had no access to gyms, physios, and equipment. Luckily I started doing functional yoga online and I couldn’t believe the results I was getting! I came back to play tennis better than ever and we graduated league champions, I believe it was the yoga that enabled this.
After falling in love with functional yoga, I decided to become certified and taught the college volleyball and tennis teams throughout their seasons. Once I graduated I spent the next couple of years moving across the U.S. trying out different jobs such as personal training and tennis coaching while continuing to teach yoga online - searching for a place that felt like ‘home’, unsure of exactly what I wanted.
Until it hit me… I needed to learn myself first, understand what I like, listen to my body, be in my own energy and heal to discover what I wanted. I dedicated myself to this and fell in love with the journey, holistic healthcare became a part of my lifestyle not just a way to ‘heal’. I got my first place and found a corporate job as an Employee Wellness Coordinator that I believed was my ideal position. However, one day I decided to sign up for a reiki and energy healing course…
Ever since that course I knew it was what I wanted to do and incorporate with my yoga teaching. Within a month of becoming a reiki healer I made the decision to move back to the UK, open my own studio and share this work and healing with the world. What’s crazy is that at 18 I wanted to be a healer, yoga instructor, reiki master but society’s standards made me think that was impossible at the time. I know I needed to experience this journey to be where I’m at today and am forever grateful.
I now teach yoga classes all around Norfolk, have 1:1 clients in person and online, provide energy healing and intuitive readings, and am a Stretchologist. My mum and I host pop-up stretch events all around Norfolk offering dynamic assisted stretching.
My mission is to erase the stigma around ‘spirituality’. I believe spirituality is different for everyone but the key is finding what works for you. Essentially it’s connecting to your intuition. Energetic management quiets the outside noise from our crazy world and identifies your true voice within.
I’m here to help you simplify, connect and align with your energy and body.
