Wanaka-based health/wellness coach providing enthusiastic + effective mobile/gym/personal training + groups

We have a conscious choice to choose what thoughts we think.
Focus on fear and lack. You’ll be in scarcity
Focus on possibility. You’ll shift into an abundant mindset.
I think we forget we have the power to choose.
6 min yarn for whoever needs to hear it. lol.

Why am I sharing something so vulnerable?
I was always so scared to share this part of what I went through. Mainly probably the stigma around mental health that still exists + actually how actually damn traumatic that time of my life was.
I carried ALOT of shame after going through that. Wild how society can condition us to think that mental health is something to hide or be ashamed of. But truth is whenever someone is physically sick, notice how everyone runs to support them, but when someone is struggling mentally for whatever reason- Often it’s hidden or unsupported. I feel, it’s because people don’t know what to do with it. They don’t know how to truly help someone in that state because they also don’t know. I can tell you it’s an utterly terrifying place to be.
It bought truth + awareness to the fact when we have inflammation in the body/stress on the cells what symptoms can come from that
A lot of these symptoms were proof of that.
Once this infection cleared, all symptoms dissipated too.
I know I was also in a state of burnout prior to all of this, from emotional + physical stress. So the combo rocked me
I’m deciding to share because I can’t not share how this mahi actually changed my entire life + world in the best way possible. I am deeply devoted to creating a safe space with love, presence + acceptance so you too can heal.
I went from having catatonia
12 literal holes in my brain
A possible brain infection
Depression
Ongoing cognitive issues
IBS
An elevated growth hormone (IGF 1) + amenorrhea (lost period for 2.5 years) when those happen together it can create a pretuitary gland tumor which was suspected, but after an MRI there wasn’t one there.
Of course I did my research + it can be from suppressed emotion
All of which I was doing. I was so emotionally stressed. So physically stressed. Burnt out. Didn’t know how to cope with my emotions. With what I’d been through. So I pushed through + I pushed through. Distracted. Until I couldn’t anymore. If you don’t listen something will stop you. Trust me, your body with stop you + you won’t have a choice. As Frou Frou sings in this song- “there’s beauty in the breakdown”+ you CAN HEAL🫶🏻
Question time- do you expect to do to the gym once and then to leave and instantly have your dream bods?
Or do you know that it takes time, consistency and dedication to make long lasting change?
Same goes for our own healing journey that we choose to embark on. We can’t rush it, we can’t make it go faster than the time it really takes to change lifelong patterns and nervous system responses.
We choose to show up because we know that we are worthy of living the life we want. That we get to change the way we think, we get to change our life. We GET to choose. We just have to get out of our own way and choose to make a different decision than we have ever made before to get a different result.
How epic is that!? You GET to choose how you want to live your life. You can decide to change it over night but you have to take aligned action to where you want to go and the direction you want to take.
Life’s short and there are no quick fixes to anything. Short term pain for longterm gain. You got this x

A Breathwork, Somatic Embodiment & Energetics Group Healing Experience with Tawna Woods and Tala Duncan | Energy Healing, Breathwork & Holistic Coaching
This is the time to remember who you are, a returning, a reclamation. A HOMECOMING ✨
The Homecoming is a powerful, intentional group healing designed to support you in returning to yourself, your original essence, before all the things you experienced that has caused suffering. We release emotional material, reset nervous system patterns, and energetic attachments that no longer serve you to remember who you are. To connect back within. To feel, to see, to know who the version of you is that you’re stepping into.
Through guided somatic embodiment practice followed by a breathwork and energy healing journey, you’ll be gently led into a deep state of presence where the body can complete what the mind has been holding onto. This is not about forcing release, it’s about creating enough safety for the body to release what it is ready to, to be able to walk forward on your path
In this sacred container, you may experience:
* Emotional clearing and nervous system recalibration
* Energetic release stored in the body
* Spontaneous insights, movements, visions or deep stillness
* A felt sense of completion, clarity and lightness and calm
* Reconnection to your inner power and life force energy
* Feeling a broad spectrum of emotion
This is a threshold moment, a conscious reclamation of your vital energy. Your clarity.
You don’t need prior experience with breathwork, energy healing or kundalini. You simply need a willingness to listen to your body and allow what is ready to move. The more we can surrender and trust the process, the deeper we can go.
Tawna and Tala are Trauma-informed practitioners, safety is paramount and at the forefront of this work
All welcome. Come as you are.

How stored emotion + past events held in our body can create a perception and lense on the world that hinders us. How these experiences can create limiting beliefs about ourselves and our lives.
How when we feel and give ourselves permission to let these experiences be revealed from our subconscious, we then have the nervous system capacity and awareness to rewrite the story and anchor in new beliefs.
Its’s then we begin to slowly and surely change our lives for the better, living a life authentic and true to us. To then take aligned action to what we want to experience in our lives because we feel and know deeply in our hearts that we are worthy of receiving it.
Much love 🌹

Are you finally sick of your own s**t? Lol. You know that internal nagging that’s been whispering to you? You have known for some time now that you don’t want to continue living your life the way that you are?
Repeating those same patterns. Feeling disconnected from yourself and who you truly are?
Feeling lost, anxious, unsure and confused on where to even start?
Maybe you know you want change but there’s that little voice inside your head that gives you every excuse why you shouldn’t. Not yet. Maybe next week or next month. Maybe when life is less stressful or you have more time or more energy.
You notice that you self sabotage the minute things are going well.
You won’t allow yourself to feel good or to receive.
Deep down you don’t feel worthy of the life you desire.
But you know you are destined for more.
You know you desire to feel safe, calm and grounded inside your body
To feel connected to yourself
To your worth
To your power
To your purpose
To be seen as you are. Held as you are. Witnessed. Supported. To let go of all of the things you’ve been carrying that you know you no longer want to hold anymore because it’s exhausting. You want more for yourself and your life. You know you deserve more.
Here’s where I come in-
We work uniquely to what you need. Some things we work with are deep nervous system repair, emotional release + regulation, feminine embodiment, breathwork, meditation, visualisation, energy healing + bodywork to connect you to your innate wisdom + worth. To learn how to listen to your body + trust yourself again. To release all that stored tension. The headaches, the gut issues, the tight shoulders, the overthinking, the ongoing fatigue.
We awaken your own life force energy
To return you home
To remember who you truly are + always were
If this spoke to you from the 21st of September I have space for one more 6 week journey client. Let’s start walking the path to call in your dreams. To connect back to your body, your heart, your wise feminine self.
Will you say yes to yourself?
Send me a DM if you’re curious about what I can do to support you. In person + online sessions available
lol guys no I’m not back on the “rails” again 😂
What is is that I actually do. Why it matters and why I felt like I needed to share a 10 min podcast with you.
As always, I trust whoever needs to hear it will.
Love you xo
