‘Havening brings a new dimension to my work with people seeking healing, personal empowerment and growth. It offers powerful ways for clients to:
using their inner creativity and resources alongside the gentle Havening touch.’
My clients have found it ‘deeply relaxing’, ‘transformative’, ‘highly energising’ and ‘personally empowering’. ‘I started this session as still water and am leaving with sparkling bubbles’. ‘I have moved from feeling powerless to standing in my own power’. ‘I have tools to take away and practice’. ‘This is the best thing I have done in the whole of lockdown.’
