Thanks For stopping by

I'm so glad you're here.

Hi, I'm Irene. My original professional background was in nursing but I always had a leaning to alternative therapies. Eventually this interest blossomed into a small practise that I was blessed to work in for thirteen years. At that point life took over and illness led to my having to take a step back. I learned a great deal from this experience especially that Body, Mind and Spirit all need nurturing.

And the illness?

Well that’s little complicated. I have a family history of Alzheimer's disease and found myself experiencing cognitive decline from 2012. I tried to get help but there was none available through mainstream medicine which led me on a journey to try and stave off symptoms myself. I thought I’d succeeded only to discover I was wrong when symptoms worsened in 2018.

Thankfully I found the ReCODE protocol in 2019 and started to make my way back from cognitive decline. I discovered through this I carry one copy of the Apoe4 gene, a recognised risk for Alzheimer’s disease. However, discovering there is help available is a game changer and such information should be in the public domain.

Other people who have benefitted from this approach shared their stories and friends from my alternative therapy practise suggested I should share mine after what I thought was my initial success.

I tried but illness in the family and my own ill health meant that project got shelved for some time. However, I won’t forget how despairing it was feeling there was nowhere to turn and I plucked up the courage to share my story. My book The A Word, Living in Harmony with my Alzheimer Risk is now available from most book retailers and from this website. Click here to access the store.

While I knew there was no successful medication on the market to stop the progression to Alzheimer disease, I guess before experiencing symptoms, it wasn't something I gave much thought to. Facing the reality that not only was it a dead end in mainstream medicine, but that many patients are dismissed either as stressed or being too young, was truly a wake up call. From THe A Word Book dropdown menu you can read about the day that was my darkest moment and from there you can access a link to the Apollo Health website where you can find more information. My interview with Kim from Indie Authors World is also available to watch here.

I currently offer the following healing modalities.

Please check the Contact Me page for availability. I'm still attending the hospital and unable to offer some therapies due to this.

I had always felt healing energy flow through my hands. But believe it or not I procrastinated for years over whether or not to learn Reiki. Childhood programming and religious doctrine left me feeling I surely couldn't be worthy enough to be involved with healing. I'm glad I eventually got past that mindset.

When I first tried to learn shamanic healing I couldn't find a teacher. Then during a stressful period I attended a workshop with the Isis School of Holistic Health in Glasgow and continued to do the course. Working with the school was a great support. They have created a website for their graduates "Healing Practitioners in the World."

I started to receive energy downloads around the time I started to experience the initial cognitive issues. I didn't know what the downloads were but I could feel they supported me in some way. My health prevented any elaboration on the energies I was receiving but I have trained in a number of channelled modalities. The one I now work with is The Thorp Healing Method.
