Suz is magical

Suz is amazing! I’ve had many different sessions over the years and every time I am truly in aww. She has been able to guide me through letting go and healing that I have held on to for decade. This was no easy quest. Others have tried over the years, but was never able to get to the root issues/concerns.
Suz is simply just a little magical.

Literally Life Changing!

I have just completed the Calm Confident You programme and for me it has been life changing. Having suffered all my life with anxiety, overwhelming thoughts and depression, I tried so many different things to help but nothing seemed to work. I'm so glad I stumbled across Suz on Facebook, she is the most kind, caring, patient and approachable person, so easy to talk to. The course was perfect for me as although I used to have good intentions when trying other self help methods, I would usually lose focus at some point, and any progress I had made was lost as I reverted back to old habits. Having the structure and the coaching calls each week was perfect for me as it encouraged me to stay on track, and get support when I needed it from Suz, and others on the course. Doing this course made me accountable, and having small tasks such as a work sheet or practicing a new breathing technique each day was great as I could see the benefits and improvements as the weeks went by. There was also lots of information about how anxiety affects the body, some of which I knew, but some I didn't and made so much sense to me. I honestly can't thank Suz enough, after almost 50 years of struggling I am in a much better place, I have a more positive outlook, my mind is no longer constantly overthinking and I feel much better equipped to deal with stressful situations if they arise.

Time to make a positive Change

This program has helped me personally and professionally. The main benefit is the length of time to work through and make changes. "As diets don't work when you stop neither do quick fixes to your emotional well being". By taking the time to work through this program with all of the exercises and calls, changes get embedded and last. This is a great program with loads of content to use and reuse in the future. Suz is enthusiastic and committed to making the course positive and successful.

Calm, Confident You Programme

Before I began the Calm, Confident You programme I had recently had a breakdown & was wanting to be proactive in my recovery.

I came across the programme & I felt it would help me to achieve my goals of gaining confidence in myself, lessen my anxiety so I could therefore look forward to the new year rather than dread it.

The programme did so much for me & I made sure I used all the available tools, coaching sessions, fb groups & healing sessions to my advantage. I was determined for this programme to be the making of me. And it did exactly that.

I've gained so much confidence in myself and anxiety is now a thing of the past. I'm a positive soul & I'm embracing life everyday.

If you want to feel the way I do & want to change your life for the better please come on board and join this amazing programme. You won't regret it!

Happy days!

I’ve been struggling with anxiety for a few years. A constant overthinking and churning in my tummy had become so bad, I knew I had to do something about it. Suz was brilliant, she gave me the tools to help with my anxious feelings and also helped me to look at anxiety in a different way. I would definitely encourage anyone who was thinking of working with Suz. These days I’m feeling much calmer and confident for the future.

Calmer, More Confident, Me!! :)

I have an extensive past struggling with Anxiety and an over busy brain! Having tried literally everything out there to help to limited success I was really happy and surprised to at last find a program that I actually connected with! So different and yet so simple and highly effective! I am now far more in control of things instead of it controlling me! Suz is also lovely and very supportive :)

Overthinker no more!

Suz has been amazing at helping me overcome my anxious and negative mindset. Everyday I would be thinking the worst and what if and now I am so much more calmer and confident. Any issues that arise for me I handle in a more calmer approach. If you have a busy mind like myself and want to invest in your mental health I’d highly recommend Suz!

Calm Confident You

Having suffered for years with anxiety and an over busy brain, I reached out to Suz. I took part in her Calm Confident You programme which turned out to be fantastic. I still get anxious but now have tools to deal with it and avoid overflowing. I highly recommend.

Thankyou Suz

I have lived with bad anxiety for 2 years now. I’m only 21 but was diagnosed with Epilepsy when I was 9. A common side affect of Epilepsy is Anxiety so It not uncommon.

Before I met Suz I had been to a psychologist, done a CBT course and had a councilor. After a full year of using these nothing had gotten better I had actually gotten worse. I couldn’t go outside my own bedroom door or walk the 10 steps into my en-suite before taking a panic attack. I had completely hit rock bottom I had suicidal thoughts, I lost my identity I had always been the fun daring one coming up with stupid ideas, I loved skiing, climbing mountains, and working with the sheep on my farm. These panic attacks stopped all that I had to cut off so many people and turn down so many hangout sessions in fear of my anxiety attacks.

My life was at a standstill it was go to work, stress about leaving work incase of a panic attack, drive home whilst panicking about if I would have a panic attack, when I got home I stayed in my car too scared to walk to my front door incase I had a panic attack. I assume you get the idea.

When I started the source full me course I dove right in with the belief I will sort this anxiety out. After a year working with professionals not one of them had taught me as much as Suz did I had never heard of these breathing techniques, and theories all of it was new to me and it was a great help. The best part of the course for me was the audio recording she puts with most classes. They helped me de-stress and calm down and realise not everything at work was on me (I had recently got a promotion to a supervisor). After the new job with the added stress I was a mess and Suz helped to calm me down and help with my day to day handling of the stress which led to anxiety.

Unfortunately I had to take anti anxiety meds and after blood tests and talks with my neurologist we figured out my panic attacks were epilepsy related. But thanks to Suz I have the skills to get myself through the “panic attack” and move forward and keep my head high.

Suz taught me I was avoiding situations, using the wrong type of wording and she taught me how to use affirmations something I never knew or heard about,

My 2 favourite audio files are “identifying Anxiety in your body” and “changing negative thinking” I still listen to these everyday. So Thank you Suz for going above and beyond to help me with the mess which was my life. I will be forever grateful for your help.

The Calm Confident You Programme with Suz

I have suffered with anxiety on and off for most of my life and approximately 25 years ago I went through a particularly bad period following the breakdown of a relationship, so when the symptoms I knew so well started to set in again a few months ago, I started to panic. I suffer with physical symptoms of palpitations, nausea and severe IBS. I’ve tried anti-depressants before which had minimal effect and left me with horrible side effects, so I knew I didn’t want to go back on medication, this is when I started to look for alternative treatments. One day Suz’s name popped up on Facebook and the rest is history. I can’t say I wasn’t sceptical at first, but after my first session with Suz it became clear that with her help I could overcome these anxious thoughts and feelings. I completed The Calm Confident You Programme about a week ago, and I can honestly say I am very proud of what I have achieved. I am now much happier, have more confidence and I feel positive about the future. Oh, and best of all, my anxiety has almost gone. Thank you Suz, you are one amazing lady xx

I had lived with anxiety since…

I had lived with anxiety since childhood, in the form of panic attacks and heart palpitations. Then Suzanne popped up on my Facebook feed. I was skeptical at first and wondered how it could work over zoom calls but am now in awe of how Suz managed to stop me having palpitations. I now feel so much more relaxed and confident in all situations. Well worth the money. Thank you so much Suz 😊

I signed up for the Anxious to Calm…

I signed up for the Anxious to Calm coaching package with Suz and I have to say it has helped me go from feeling stuck and unable to see a way out of anxiety to feeling more empowered and positive about the future, and her coaching is perfectly geared towards helping anyone who struggles with anxiety or dealing with past trauma. Suz is an excellent holistic therapist who truly cares about the well-being of her clients.

Divine Life Purpose sessions

Divine Life Purpose sessions

I have always believed in fate, and fate certainly took me on my path to meet Susie.
What I wasn't prepared for was what happened next......
Susie was offering 1-1 sessions to help find your life's purpose or clear anything that may be blocking this. I have always been fascinated by chakras and crystals but didn't really make the time to know where to start.
I responded to Susie's offer, she called to discuss and talk me through the process. Both sessions were amazing, I've never experienced anything like it, where I was in such deep relaxation state that I actually managed to not think of anything else apart from Susie and I talking. Many things came up which I didn't expect, However, the real magic happened just like she said could happen, (Susie certainly must have released blockages that I had or things I was holding on to which were stopping me from seeing my life and feeling excited about the future) immediately after our sessions, My business has taken off, I am clear of what I need to do, where I am going and how to get there. People have come into my life, new opportunities and I have been shown such kindness
( so much I am speechless ) my relationships are better and I feel in control. I truly feel positive, for the first time in my life I have no fear or worry, these were only emotions that I created. Susie helped me to forgive and have closure on past experiences and move forward. I also have belief in gratitude and manifestation, I CAN create the life I want.
I am so grateful to Susie and happy that I invested in myself to make the changes needed to a positive and happy future.
Thank you Susie xx

Theta Healing with Suzanne

I had a Theta Healing session with Suzanne for working on my Divine Life Purpose. Suzanne and I worked together to identify what my true life purpose is and ultimately the right job for me. Suzanne then removed blocks and old beliefs which were stopping me from achieving this. Suzanne is so calming, understanding and non judgemental.

Suz is a game changer!

Suz is a game changer! She saved me by giving me the tools I needed to manage my anxiety and to learn how to live MINDFULLY, every, single, day. At the time of my first visit, I was experiencing the strangest most insecure, anxiety riddled period of my life - palpitations, body shakes and tremors, vagueness - anxiety attacks! I did not know what it was I was experiencing nor how to describe it. Suz helped me unravel it. First up, she taught me how to BREATHE. I thought I knew how to do that already!! But she taught me specific techniques and different types of breathing that I could use to help me calm down. It worked! And the more I used it and the longer I kept at it, the better I got at it and the more effective it became. I had sessions dedicated specifically to breathing which she tailored to my needs.
Next up was MEDITATION. I was previously wary of this 'meditation' thing and thought it was a bit too 'alternative' for me. But, this has probably been the biggest game changer. Now when I meditate, I am able to shut down ALL other thoughts and focus ALL my thoughts just on my BREATHING. It is pure, CALM space. No other distractions, just getting the brain to QUIET down so I can clear space and come out of it CALM and SERENE and REFRESHED! I began learning how to do this by doing Suz’s guided meditations. She does them with you and guides you through the breathing and tells you to ‘clear your mind’ and ‘slow down the breath’ and ‘to let the thought pass’ and ‘to come back to your breathing’. She has the most soothing but uplifting voice and it never felt ‘weird’ or uncomfortable…or ‘alternative’. By doing guided sessions together with Suz, I started to get the hang of it and learnt to do it myself. I now do it 1 or 2 times a day without even thinking about it - when I wake up, when I'm sitting in the car waiting to pick up my kids, or if I start to get jittery or anxious – it just takes 5 minutes.
Using my breathing techniques and applying them when I meditate, helps me to live MINDFULLY every, single, day.
Thank you Suz for being a guiding light and teaching me how to live mindfully. You and all you provide at Sourceful Holistic Wellbeing has been an absolute game changer for me!
