About
Cindy is a mindful movement practitioner and coach, who loves to support people to slow things down, move beyond the negative effects of prolonged stress, and to help them breathe again. Using specific movement sequences, she gently guides them to feel better in their bodies by releasing holding patterns of tension and emotions, gain greater mobility and feel more ease in their whole selves.
After her own experience of years of high levels of stress, as well as an unhealthy, long-term relationship, Cindy felt the negative impact it all made on her health and wellbeing - physically, mentally and emotionally. At the same time, the level of caregiving support to her elderly parents was rapidly increasing. Deciding to take care of herself as much as she cared for others, she made changes in her life - through daily calming practices and habits, deeper personal awareness, and holistic body work. Not that every day is perfect by any means, she now lives life slowly and with intention, which often brings simple beauty and joy into her every day experience.
Spending over twenty-three years serving the needs of patients as an optometrist assistant, in 2018 Cindy decided to follow her passion and serve in a different way, becoming a life coach and certified Neuromovement ® Practitioner. These skills, together with her extensive life experiences, bring together her unique approach to exploring what is possible with her clients and students.
Cindy loves being outdoors walking, hiking, canoeing, cycling, or generally exploring - and has a particular passion for gardening and native bees. She is a beekeeper on hiatus, has a thing for trees, and is an armchair birdwatcher. She has a multitude of creative interests, but especially enjoys creating handmade soap and handcrafted paper, and watercolour painting, and loves to hang around antique shops and bookstores - all things that slow her down, fill her soul and has her feeling more grounded, more peaceful and calm.
