About Christian

I am a fully qualified Sound Therapist, Reiki, Meditation & Mindfulness practitioner based in the beautiful spa town of Harrogate, North Yorkshire. I offer services across Yorkshire and beyond including for private group events, corporate and school wellbeing and team building workshops, including 1to1 Sound Therapy/ Reiki, group soundbath relaxation, meditation and mindfulness sessions, cacao ceremonies and didgeridoo workshops.

I have always loved music, whether it is just to be sat there listening to music, or playing instruments of my own. I was never really drawn to playing instruments, where I had to learn to read music first, in a structured way (although I did have piano lessons as a kid, for a while), but always wanted to play instruments, where I could just dive in and experience the sounds, in a very much free flow form, it just felt totally natural to me, and now, many years later I understand, why as a child, this was the case. The first instrument that I really found I had an affinity with was the didgeridoo; I fell in love with the gentle sounds of this ancient instrument, a tribal instrument known to be thousands of years old. I bought my first didgeridoo when in my late teens and have amassed so many since, including making my own beautiful didgeridoos out of Ash, Birch and Blackthorn wood, with a lot of love and care going into each and every creation. The didgeridoo is not the only instrument though, of course, I added to these, with the Native American Flute, Hand Pan, Singing Bowls and many more. I often came across them at various festivals and for one reason or another; I just had to have one, not knowing the real reason as to why. I am an ‘Earth’ sign and having experienced Soundbaths before at some of these festivals, I found them to be so grounding and relaxing, many times, taking me on such a deep and meditative journey. So knowing the profound effect that sound can have upon the Mind, Body and Spirit, it seemed a natural progression to me, that I could use these amazing instruments, to create a beautiful healing ‘Journey Through Sound’ of my own, to bring the energy and resonance of these sounds and frequencies, along with Reiki, Meditation and Mindfulness, combined, realising and understanding the power and the healing qualities, of each of the modalities and how they can benefit our health and wellbeing.

Aside from all the above, I am at heart a very creative person and love working with wood, being in nature, hill walking, just being out in the fresh air, hearing the birds, the trees, the gentle stream or powerful waterfall running by, I have an allotment too, and love growing my own food and camping, a truly down to earth person in both heart and in spirit. This really does, I feel, come through in the energy I bring to any sessions I host, when I am holding space for you, for your transformation, for your moment to just be, to relax, I feel the warmth in my heart, the love for all beings, after all we are all energy, we are all one.

I qualified as a Sound Therapist, training with the 'Sound Healing Academy' and continuing with the Centre for Excellence, to gain my Sound Therapy Diploma, which was accredited by the Complimentary Medical Association, where I went on to become a member.

I then went on to expand my knowledge of energy and healing, through training as a Reiki Practitioner, as well as training in meditation and mindfulness practices, and I absolutely love working with energy and sound, all of which put together, create the perfect balance for me to support you on your journey of personal transformation.

As a practitioner, it is profoundly important to me, that I hold space for you in a professional and compassionate way, so that I can assist you on a journey that will aid in the healing of your mind, body and spirit, whether this be on a mental, physical, emotional or spiritual level, helping to return you to a more balanced and positive state of health and wellbeing.

The services I offer centre around connection, whether that be on an individual basis or within a group setting. Working with you in a supportive and non - judgemental way, compassion, consideration and support is at the heart of everything I do. You can find out much more about the services I offer by visiting my website, or feel free to get in touch for a chat.

Always, with Love, Light and Gratitude,
