Held by herbs
An in depth 1:1 12 week healing journey to unearth and treat the emotional root cause of your symptoms.
Are you ready to see the challenges in your life differently?
Are you ready to feel a shift in your health for good?
Something has called you here. Are you ready to hear and answer that call?
Together we’ll get to the roots of what’s happening and the roots of what’s possible so you can show up fully to savour this precious life.
I’m Hayley and as your guide, I warmly welcome you here to the start of your healing journey.
This is a unique, deep-dive into your story and current state of health where we get into the roots of who you are, where you’ve been and where you are going.
We will work with your body, mind, story and soul together to create the long lasting shifts you want to see in your health and in your life.
This offering is sensory herbalism woven together with mentorship, life coaching, story work, solution focused therapy, food as medicine, menstrual cycle awareness, nervous system awareness, somatic experiencing tools, body dowsing and ritual.
We will work closely together for an intensive 12 week period and in that time, will transform the way you relate to yourself, your story, your health and your body.
I aim to meet you wherever you are on your path and help you remember the roots of who you are.
I guide you through a step by step healing process of release, reclamation, restorying and restoration.
RELEASE ~ RECLAIM ~ REST ~ RESTORE ~ RESTORY
I will support you to release what no longer serves you, dream new stories and sow fresh seeds for your health going forward ~ for who you are now becoming. I will create a holistic treatment plan that provides your body with everything it needs to heal.
I’ll introduce you to the herbal allies that will help guide your healing. We will write the new stories you need to enable you to show up meaningfully to the life you want.
With your herbal allies by your side, by the end of this journey you will experience lasting shifts in your health and wellbeing.

My approach
My work is based on an understanding that our bodies have an innate internal healing capacity and with the right support, will naturally move towards a state of health. I weave a brave, trauma informed container where transformation can happen safely.
I prescribe low doses of herbs alongside other healing tools to achieve profound, immediate responses. We will work in a participatory way with you in an active part on your journey towards optimum health.
We will do some deep work together to explore the emotional root causes of any symptoms, imbalances or dis-ease you’re experiencing. I will be your guide in and out of the depths we need to visit safely.
Throughout our journey, I develop a detailed, personalised treatment plan for you that addresses these 7 things I know to be vital when healing dis-ease naturally:

This isn’t for you if:
~ you want a medical diagnosis or a quick fix
~ you’re not willing to make changes to your lifestyle, diet, patterns of behaviour or relationships
~ you’re not interested in how your physical symptoms relate to your emotional or soul life
The herbs you'll receive
On this journey, I will share my herbal magic with you and teach you how to access it for yourself.
We will work together with the herbs found naturally on our doorstep and in the herb garden rather than turning to healing plants imported from other cultures and continents.
The herbs I will offer you as remedies are either grown in my herb garden (exceeding organic standards) or responsibly wild-gathered.
They will be administered in the form of drops/tinctures, teas or tonics as you prefer and are created uniquely for you to initiate your body’s innate healing responses.
For potency, all of my herbal remedies are lovingly hand-gathered, home-processed, stored in optimum conditions and administered from my home dispensary. The freshness and vibrancy of the herbs in my dispensary often far exceeds people’s expectations. This is partly due to the regenerative way they are grown but also how they are harvested (timed carefully with optimum solar and lunar cycles), how quickly they are dried and the careful way they are stored in small batches.
You have the option of your 1:1 consultations at the herb garden where you’ll have the opportunity to meet and learn about the plants you’ll work with.
It is very important that the land is in some way part of our process together so even if we work together online, I will guide you to find the herbs you need in your local area and teach you how to make your own remedies from them.

Wondering if this is for you?
Get in touch to schedule your connection call
During our call we will get an idea of whether I am the right person to support you and whether the held by herbs healing journey will serve you.
We will discuss what you are experiencing and where you would like to be. Whether we decide to work together or not, you will learn something about where you are at from our conversation.
1:1 support in troubled times
There is nothing wrong with you because you are experiencing challenges, uncomfortable feelings or physical symptoms. You are where you are on your journey and that in itself is a miracle.
I believe you are on a healing journey and everything you experience is reflective of something far bigger than any one of us.
The healing work we embark on together holds an awareness that we live in a culture and an economic system that isn’t naturally set up for us to flourish. We are also animals living in ecosystems experiencing climate chaos and biodiversity collapse.
I consider many of the health challenges we see around us to be understandable responses to what our bodies are faced with as modern humans in troubled times.
“It is no measure of health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society” [Krishnamurti]
I can’t change the way things are but I can guarantee to walk the path with you: to witness, listen and guide you towards healing with greater ease and wellness.
Tending to our individual wellbeing is a big part of the collective change we need. It is as an act of deep love, self respect and social responsibility to recognise you need this support.
