Share your wellness journey with me

Hi I’m Kate, massage therapist, yoga instructor and promoter of self love. Welcome and thank you for sharing your wellness journey with me!

You might ask yourself how I am able to offer you support on your healing journey, what qualifies me to be able to give advice on such a complex and sensitive subject such as healing? Well let me tell you the TRUTH: I am also on my own healing journey.

On my journey I have among other things greatly improved my POSTURE, practically eliminated BACK PAIN, I have healed from CHRONIC SINUSITIS and taught myself how to breathe properly. I healed myself from post contraceptive amenorrhea (basically NO PERIOD) I increased my CONFIDENCE and felt more comfortable in my own skin. I healed from a very toxic relationship. I really could go on and on about all the improvements that I have made in my day to day life and health, mental and physical, and this is just a snapshot of what is possible.

But I want you to know that I DO NOT have it all together, I am not a perfect shiny person with no issues and nothing to learn. And that is why I feel able to guide you on your healing journey, because I am right there WITH YOU, I am learning and growing as YOU learn and grow. I walked much of my path alone, and now I want to reach out to you, to SUPPORTyou as you navigate this journey, to shine a light on the hidden corners of your body, mind and soul, to offer you COMPASSION and understanding, and share with you the WISDOM that I have acquired through my own journey.

My mission is to guide you towards your OWN HEALING, through tried and tested methods that elevate your mood, deepen your connection to self, and liberate the tension in your body.

Had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend the Happy Lotus! Kate is brilliant, I went to see her as I had neck and back pain. I left very relaxed and pain-free.

Had some neck and shoulder problem, but feel so much better after an hour of oil massage. Quiet studio with lots of natural light. Definitely recommended.

- Penny Yeh - October 30, 2018

A wonderful professional Thai Massage that will leave you feeling amazing! Highly recommended.

Kate is an incredible massage therapist, her holistic approach works healing and energising. Most importantly she is very authentic and pure - I like it so much that not only her massages, but also her yoga lessons, have this basic and natural approach.

- Caroline Koppers - October 31, 2018

I had a wonderful relaxing massage with Kate. She was very intuitive and adapted very well to what I needed. She knew the right pressure to use and had a great balance between relaxing techniques and when to use more pressure to work out the knots! I would definitely recommend it and will come back again the next time I’m in the city. Thank you Kate!

Kate is a gifted massage therapist. I have chronic back and neck pain and was dreading my 8-hour flight home from Barcelona. I booked an appointment before I left for the airport, and I'm so glad I did. I've had a lot of experience with therapeutic massage over the years, and I have to say Kate's skill and intuition are top-notch. After an hour's massage at her lovely sunlit studio I felt transformed. Thanks to her, my trip home was unusually relaxed and pain-free.

WORKSHOP 16/11 This workshop was born from the re WORKSHOP 16/11

This workshop was born from the realisation that as a society we are not taught how to RELAX  in neither our bodies or our minds. So I would like to invite you to my first workshop on Yoga for Tension Release - How to teach your boy and mind to relax.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In this class we will use a combination of restorative yoga poses, energy medicine techniques, breath work and massage to penetrate the layers of tension that we carry and tap into a deep feeling of wellbeing and relaxation.  Where we can rest our minds in our hearts to hear the true wisdom of our bodies and feel our own unique energy.

Expect lots of satisfying sighs, a feeling of lightness in the body and joints, and new tools for handling tension and stress in your body and mind! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

4 WAYS TO KEEP YOUR MASSAGE GLOW LONG AFTER THE MA 4 WAYS TO KEEP YOUR MASSAGE GLOW LONG AFTER THE MASSAGE IS OVER!⁣
⁣
1. DON'T make plans for after your massage appointment! Throw away the to do list and feel into the newly found space in your body!⁣🤗
⁣
2. DO the CRAZY DANCE see video for my own personalised brand of crazy dancing! What I mean is add variety into your movement practice, your body wants to shake jump twist and twirl! Give it what it wants without judgement, rules or alignment! ⁣💃
⁣
3. MEDITATE when we switch off the mind we can also learn to consciously let go of tension. Through meditation we can bring presence and awareness to areas of our body that we are holding onto subconsciously.⁣🧘🏻‍♀️
⁣
4. DON'T wait until your next massage to take time for yourself. REST and RESET often, remind yourself that BUSY does NOT equal SUCCESS. YOU can have it ALL and still take an afternoon nap if that's what your body requires! ⁣💆🏼‍♀️
⁣
TRY the CRAZY DANCE and let me know how you feel after, I promise if nothing else you will have a BIG SMILE on your face!! ⁣🤣🤪

WHY I DON’T LOVE MYSELF ⁣ Ok so I’m here to WHY I DON’T LOVE MYSELF
⁣
Ok so I’m here to end the tainted ‘Self Love’ movement because it appears to me that the ‘Self Love’ movement only exists if you are doing something labeled ‘Good’. It only exists if you are, working out every day, drinking green juices, going for massages and admiring your own body.  Well I say FUCK THAT I don’t want self love if all it looks like is trying to be perfect ALL THE TIME. And I don’t know about you but I sure as hell am not perfect! I am messy, emotional, and forever changing, sometimes from one hour to the next (or minute) ⁣
⁣
Many of us (me included) walk around with this mask on and the appearance of taking care of ourselves. How far does that care extend though? Sure you work out and eat well, but what happens if you feel your yoga/work out didn’t go well? What happens if you don’t work out at all, maybe for weeks! What happens if you eat a whole box of cookies, or don’t get all your work done? ⁣
⁣
These can be times when ‘self love’ does not extend very far, when our own inner voice can be our worst critic. “You should be more advanced in your practice/workout/dance routine by now!” “You will get fat from eating all those cookies” “You are such a failure for not finishing your work” ⁣
⁣
All that negative self talk is the opposite of the love and care we show our bodies when we eat well, move our bodies and do all the things that fill us with joy. And trust me when I say that the negative voice is LOUD and yes your body is listening, the affects of which are reaching far and wide. Anxiety, tension, trouble sleeping, upset digestion, the list is long and even more these conditions themselves keep you in a loop of general un wellness (dis-ease) of the body and soul.⁣ .

New Moon in Pisces ♓️ 🌚🙌🏻 . Planting New Moon in Pisces ♓️ 🌚🙌🏻
.
Planting seeds of intention for this next cycle. Getting clear on ways I would like to grow materially and spiritually. 🌱🦋
.
My new moon ritual is to light some candles and an incense clear my mind and write from my heart all the things that I would like to accomplish and also let go of. 💕🌙
.
Do you have a new moon ritual? Do you believe in the power of the universe to support you?
The other day I woke up with a feeling of immense The other day I woke up with a feeling of immense gratitude. I realised that I am completely happy with who I am, where I am and what I am doing. I realised that there is beauty in each step of the journey of life and the only thing that gets in my way of feeling this is a bad habit of always looking to the future to some perceived end goal.
.
As I looked back over the last few years I realised that life had been a never ending journey of twists and turns and even the dark days had helped me grow in ways that I can’t even explain. .
When I stopped always wanting and wishing and looking to the future, I felt more happiness with all that is, right now!!
.
I wrote this affirmation to remind myself to enjoy the ride ✌🏻💕
