“it is only the seeking that prevents the finding ”
I am Alex
With training in kinesiology, mind-body medicine, reiki, ka huna Massage, & herbal medicine, & a deep interest & exploration of non-duality, Zen Buddhism, trauma informed care, polyvagal theory & psychosomatic medicine, my work is rooted in guiding others back to their wild self—their body, their emotions, & ultimately, their innate sense of being.
Like you, I am the dance of many stories.
Some have been painful, traumatic.
Others, expansive & ecstatic.
And many have lived quietly in between.
These stories led me on a search—for the part of myself that felt missing. For peace. For a sense of unity within.
I spent years avoiding, & years seeking.
Running away. Running toward.
Until one day, I simply stopped—
& in the stillness, recognised what had been there all along.
I am not a story.
I am the dance.
-
Our suffering begins when we believe that a story—any story—will complete us.
We spend our lives running from pain, chasing pleasure, clinging to the narratives we think will make us whole.
But in doing so, we miss the truth:Peace isn’t found in the story—
but within the kind allowing of what is:
The sorrow. The chaos. The joy. The wildness within us & the stillness in between.I’m passionate about supporting those who long to build a gentler, more inclusive relationship with their emotions—
those who want to feel safe in their bodies,
to find peace in who they are,
not in the story they’ve been told to believe,
or the one society says they should be.Because I’m not here to tell you another story.
I’m here to remind you—
you are already the wholeness of the dance.So if you’re a highly sensitive person, neurodivergent, the black sheep of the family…
if you’ve struggled with unworthiness, not-enoughness,
if your relationship with your body or emotions feels unkind or unsafe…
if you’ve felt unloved, alone, like an outsider…
if you navigate anxious, avoidant, or disorganised attachment…
if your mental health feels heavy to carry—I see you.
I feel you.
And I am here to walk beside you,
if and when you’re ready.
