      <image:title>Kim - Kia ora, I’m Kim,</image:title>
      <image:caption>It requires BOLD courage and commitment to back yourself and seek the positive and healthy change you desire. I help people find their “why” and “what”, reach higher than they imagined they could, and then support them to get there. After a fail (or two) in life I took a leap of faith, and travelled the world alone for a year to find out what I was made of. I was in my 30’s and terrified. By the time I returned home, I was ready to cut a new path. I wanted to learn how to empower others in health. I knew I wanted to work with natural therapies. I started with a double diploma in naturopathy and medical herbalism. For those 3 years I was afraid I would fail - all I could do was keep trying not to fail, like every one else was doing. It worked. I graduated in 2006. From the beginning it’s been an empowering, meaningful and rewarding journey. I’ve learned to boldly lean in, take 1 step at a time, and breathe. I’ve learned that anyone can achieve anything they want - it’s simply a matter of believing and then doing. I’ve continued to add to my kete over the years - scroll down to see my qualifications. My ultimate goal is to help people reach their desired health or life goals and become “influential in their own lives”. Kim x</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - why coaching?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Personal coaching opens up your world in ways you may never have imagined. Coaching has taught me that what we believe about ourselves may not be true. Our truths are the sum total of our life experiences and can be deeply imprinted in our psyche. These imprints pool together to form our ideas and beliefs some of which can prevent us from seeing opportunities for change and growth when they appear. When we realise this, it’s then possible to observe the negative scripts that have been repeating in the background. Coaching helps to dissolve fears that create inertia and procrastination, excuses and justifying. Coaching helps to identify and overcome perceived obstacles, and open the mind to the idea that anything is achievable. When the mind is open, there is space for creativity to flow and new possibilities to be discovered. Are you ready to take the 1st step and begin…? I offer a free 30minute call so you can see if we are a good match for each other. I invite you to get in touch to learn more about me or share what you’re looking for, or both.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - why naturopathy?</image:title>
      <image:caption>The foundation of naturopathy is to always consider the whole person, and not any one symptom in isolation for optimal health and vitality in all areas of your life. Naturopathy is a drug-free holistic approach, that emphasises prevention. Naturopathy combines natural therapies like herbal medicine, clinical nutrition, and lifestyle counselling to address the root causes of illness. Naturopathy is particularly helpful for those seeking alternatives to conventional medicine or looking to complement their existing treatment plans with natural, less invasive options. Information and knowledge sharing with you is an important part of how I practice. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge so you have a deep understanding your body and what it needs. I support people and families with: stress adrenal fatigue gut health sleep difficulties mood &amp; emotional imbalances weight management easy healthy eating plans for now and the future Get in touch for a free 15min call and we can discuss what’s happening for you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - why reiki?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Reiki is an ancient Japanese mind/body (non-invasive) energy healing technique originating from Sensei Mikao Usui where it was believed that the mind exists not just in the brain but in every organ and tissue in the body. This is not a new concept - traditional shamanic healing practices in ancient civilisations have understood the significance of the connection between mind/body throughout the ages. Today we see a revival in which the ancient holistic practices of the Aborigines, Peruvian Shamans, Ayurvedic healers, Native American’s, and Maōri are becoming widely trusted and accepted again. Negative thoughts and feelings in the unconscious mind has an unconscious effect in the body, causing your ‘qi’ (life force) to become hampered or blocked. Take for example when we experience physical pain, we subconsciously ‘hold into’ that area to protect it from any further discomfort - this causes increased tension and blocks blood flow in that same area. Instead, if we deliberately practice deep relaxed breathing into that area we can see tension and pain ease. The same holds true for energy blocks caused by negative feelings and thoughts. When we hold onto them we become blocked. Reiki can help gently release these blocks that ultimately cause imbalance, and if left, can lead to illness. How do you know if you need reiki? You don’t feel at ease - you might have a niggling pain or health complaint that you just can’t resolve, or you might be on an emotional merry-go-round that you can’t seem to escape, or you might be stuck in a situation that is causing you emotional (or mental) stress that you can’t seem to see your way clear of. If you’re not sure if reiki is for you, just get in touch and have a chat. How does your river flow?</image:caption>
