Welcome

Come Home to Yourself.
Embody your Yes. Live your Joy.

Is it time to put yourself first?
To have greater freedom, vitality, aliveness and presence?
Are you ready to feel empowered as yourself rather than defined by roles and identities?
Are you eager to embrace life and live it well, with the beauty and richness of your own authentic life?

Woman looking straight forward with blurred forest behind

Perhaps you are moving through a change or transition, feeling disconnected from yourself, or you simply know the life you are living is not enough. You are searching for more. Not more doing, but more of yourself… your own needs, wants and desires.

You are longing for your inner YES!
Your own radiance and joy.

At Sacred Journeys you are encouraged and inspired to find and live your authentic, wholehearted ‘Yes’ - within the beauty of ordinary, everyday life!

Discover the freedom to let yourself shine, to take up space on this Earth, fully in the body, in your power and guided from within.

Step into sacred embodiment and ecstatic presence. Live with intimate awareness in an open, receptive body that is flowing with life - body, breath and senses animated through quiet attention and heart opening appreciation that makes the mundane sacred.

Fall in love with life and remember the innate joy of living.
Soften into BE-ing and place yourself at the centre of your own life.
Live with self-love, embodied purpose, passion and inspiration.

How?
When life feels noisy, confusing or uncertain, come home to the compassionate embrace of the heart to hear what you need next.
Bring all parts of yourself into the now. Grounded, regulated and no longer fragmented, you move into self-leadership with healthy boundaries, clearly knowing the next choice and step on your path.
Become more attentive to the experience of being alive, rooted on the Earth, connected to your body, your joy and desires, fully engaged in the life you are here to live.

Welcome! My name is Jo.
I am an Embodied Well-Being Practitioner, Transformational Healer and Spiritual Guide. I know each life journey is unique and imperfect and I will take the time to listen to your needs and desires to focus and optimise our time together.

With a bright and grounded heart, I will guide you through change and transformation to steadiness, clarity, connection and joy - back home to yourself, ready to live your deepest yes!

    Compassionate touch can unlock and reveal that which is being held on all levels and allow past emotions and trauma to be safely felt and processed.

  • “Jo is one of the world's special people. Truly one in a zillion. She is gentle, perceptive and supportive, and has a deep inner spiritual strength. Multi-skilled and multi-talented, Jo has wide-reaching life skills and a wisdom that is vast. During the time we spend together I find myself opening up and confiding in Jo, often quite unexpectedly. She holds the space between us and facilitates an honest, meaningful, safe place to share some of my deepest feelings and concerns. I feel privileged to know and be guided by Jo. She is heavenly and simultaneously a grounded being who touches my soul.”

  • "I can't stop recommending Havening every chance I get. It is without a doubt the most profoundly effective therapy I have ever experienced, and has in only two sessions completely changed my internal life. I have shifted deep rooted beliefs, and what's more the sessions are fun and I came away feeling happy, relaxed and light each time. I can't thank you enough Jo and I'm sure anyone that comes to you will feel the same way." 

    Adeola

  • “Jo's deep knowledge of the science of the body, ranging through topics as varied as integrated anatomy, epigenetics, embryology and neuroscience is combined with an intuitive understanding of the art of touch; allowing access to deeper and often previously unexplored realms of experience... often through revealing pain you didn't even know was there… and then allowing you space to come out the other side refreshed and regenerated… a bit wiser and filled with a sense of gratitude as to the mystery of being a living, lovely energetic soft body.”

    Jules

  • “I called Jo to help me with an ongoing problem I had for 6 months. I had seen doctors and chiropractors as the problem had got so severe resulting in real difficulty sleeping and unable to work, but Jo's treatments combining massage, exercises and advice was the only thing that eased the pain. I am now back doing everything I enjoyed doing before and without any pain. It relieved stress at the time too and I loved the wide range of oils to choose from. She is very skilled at working out those stubborn knots, or just giving a general massage. Whether for pain relief, or just a relaxing treat, Jo is definitely the person to call!”

    Kim

  • "Being supported by Jo is to be lovingly guided back home to yourself Being supported by Jo is to be held by the world's greatest and most loving cheerleader!”

    Sophie

  • “When Jo holds space she creates a wonderful grounded and fresh energy. She makes a safe space for emotions to bubble up and flow away, clearing the way for the new. She is a wise woman who knows the power of silence and when it's right to speak.”

The Threshold of Summer’s End
The Threshold of Summer’s End

As the sun still shines bright and hot, the telltale signs of the season change are increasingly present. The air quality shifts, the light changes… the temperature drops and morning dew arrives. This moment - this threshold of summer’s end - is such a strange place to hang out.

I used to grieve at this moment, at this point of transition. I then learnt to enjoy and embrace the changes and step into the autumn (or fall) more easily, and this year it is different again. After weeks of uninterrupted sunshine, long days and hot nights I am not ready to let that go…

When Joy Feels Elusive
When Joy Feels Elusive

I came into this month expecting to write about joy, wanting to write about joy. The wonders, the depth, the magic and that deep rooted thread that flows through and rises within us when something touches our heart and our soul. And then I found myself in a much deeper process, one of grief, change, uncertainty and contemplation. A time of transition and not knowing. I am very experienced with these spaces, I have walked this path, or so I thought, but this is different.

The Lobster in the Pot of Perpetual Doing!
The Lobster in the Pot of Perpetual Doing!

Sometimes we need contrast to see clearly. Oftentimes it is only through contrasts that we gain the insight and wisdom that leads to clarity. Forget for a moment about the bird in the cage analogy, I realised the lobster in the pot of hot water felt much more real and true in this example. That it allowed me to include more sensory awareness and why we might not fly free from the cage, surely it’s easy? The door is open… Right?

Empowerment Through Presence
Empowerment Through Presence

I have been exploring the idea of empowerment and what this really means for me and why it is so fundamental to my life and my offerings to the world. The first thing that came into my awareness was how gentle and quiet empowerment actually is. How silent it can be.

How this is not about striving, becoming more and being strong and loud… this is empowerment born from a steady grounded presence.
