    Who is Charlotte Henderson?Charlotte Henderson is a perinatal safeguarding advocate, birth doula and professional trainer. Known as The Dependency Doula, she works at the intersection of maternity, addiction recovery and safeguarding — bringing lived experience and professional expertise to support women and families navigating systems that too often fail them.Charlotte Henderson is a perinatal safeguarding advocate, birth doula and educator with lived experience of addiction, recovery and the systems that claim to protect women and families.Charlotte talks about:In this episode, Charlotte shares her personal story — navigating the maternity and recovery systems during her first pregnancy with little support and significant multi-agency collusion working against her, and then, three years into her recovery, being reported by the NHS after her second birth for exercising her legal right not to engage them — while her daughter lay critically ill in intensive care as a result of their negligence.She now uses that experience alongside her professional expertise to help other women and families navigate the medical and safeguarding systems where either “too much, too soon” or “too little, too late” seems to be the norm.How multi-agency collusion operates in maternity and safeguarding — and what it looks like from the insideThe legal rights women have that professionals routinely fail to disclose and how they translate into real outcomes How to document, communicate and self-advocate when the system is working against youWhy “too much, too soon” and “too little, too late” are two sides of the same systemic failureWhat recovery through motherhood could look like Contact Charlotte –Instagram: @thedependencydoulaFacebook: facebook.com/TheDependencyDoula (I don’t have many followers on here yet, but it’s worth adding)Website: thedependencydoula.com (still under construction,but will be ready well in time for the podcast)The Conduit — professional training for birth workers, launching September 2026 https://1drv.ms/b/c/6912fcd0fc4395ea/IQAy-C0ADvNSTLYZs5IO19XbAf6doFFyz_DWoak1re4X3k0Telegram: https://t.me/TheDependencyDoulaChannel (again, haven’t used it much, but useful for the freedom movement crowd)To book a free consultation just email me: [email protected]*Join us live on the next podcast here, talk to your favourite guests https://painfreedom.co.uk/the-positive-future-for-health-podcast/Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    No Child Needs to Fail: Rethinking SEND, Anxiety & Education with Peter Fekete

    Who is Peter Fekete?Peter Fekete is the founder of Black’s Academy, an educational organisation focused on helping children overcome learning delays, reduce anxiety and achieve their academic potential. His work challenges the idea that some children are destined to struggle or fail within education.Drawing on Black’s Academy’s experience and a growing body of case studies, Peter argues that many of the problems surrounding SEND and educational failure are not inevitable. He believes that with the right individualised approach, learning difficulties can be remediated, confidence restored and children given the opportunity to succeed.Peter talks about:The growing crisis in UK education and SEND provision, why increasing numbers of children are struggling, and why conventional approaches may be failing to address the underlying problem.He explores the rise in anxiety among young people, the growing financial and social cost of SEND, and the increasing number of young people becoming NEET – not in education, employment or training.Most importantly, Peter explains why he believes this is a man-made crisis that can be solved, and why no child needs to be written off as a failure.Talking pointsThe UK education and SEND crisis – what is going wrong and why the situation is likely to deepen.Why anxiety and learning difficulties are increasing – and whether the way we educate children is contributing to the problem.The rise of NEETs – who they are, why young people are becoming disconnected from education and employment, and why this affects the whole of society.The true cost of educational failure – the impact on children and families, as well as the wider economic and social consequences.Why government may not solve the problem – and why Peter believes a different, personalised approach to learning could provide a way forward.No child needs to fail – how Black’s Academy aims to remediate learning delays, reduce stress and help students achieve the grades and confidence they are capable of.Contact Peter:Website https://www.blacksacademy.xyz/index.php?Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Healing with Herbs with Elle Chaska

    About Elle ChaskaMy first exposure with plant spirit medicine was 2003, when I went to the jungle of Peru to work with the deeply humble Shipibo shamans. That sparked a lifetime interest in plant spirit shamanism and soon I became particularly interested in working with the spirits of the plants here in my ancestral land of the United Kingdom and started befriending them as allies, teachers and guides. As well as a deep plant based knowledge bank garnered through both experience and trainings in both shamanic, intuitive and medical herbalism, I have experience working as an addiction counsellor using CBT based methods and as a meditation teacher. I am Master Sekhem and Reiki Energy healer, and work both crystal and sound healing into my offerings. I am also a medicine singer/songwriter weaving the songs inspired by plants and the ceremony of life into my offerings Elle talks about: 🌿What is plant spirit shamanism 🌿How plants heal beyond the mere physical 🌿How plants want to express themselves through us 🌿How music has been fundamental to my exploration of plants Contact Elle:Website https://www.therainbowportal.comInstagram https://www.instagram.com/therainbowportal/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/eleanor.chaskaYoutube, songs that heal, herbs, foraging, woodland retreats and more.. https://www.youtube.com/@ellechaskaTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Frequency Medicine with Siobhan Mackenzie

    Who is Siobhan?Siobhan came to frequency medicine by a circuitous route. While working in the field of writing and research, Siobhan met her partner, who was electrosensitive, and discovered that, A, it was quite a common problem, and B, she could make EMF protective clothing for her partner, and also sell it to others. That business started in 2019 and took off during the lockdown. Increasingly, however, Siobhan was nagged by the misgiving that just wrapping yourself in protective clothing or shielding your house was not enough, and more needed to be done to make the body more resilient to the increasing electrosmog in our environment.With her partner, Kit, Siobhan began to look more closely at the beneficial frequencies she knew existed, and found that there were several machines that could help with resilience, but also much more than that. The Frequency Medicine Centre is the result of over 3 years of learning and study, which is always ongoing, as there is so much more to know. My partner and I founded Frequency Medicine Centre in Glastonbury. This year we opened a second centre in Basingstoke and a pop up in Bridport. We will be opening another centre in Weston Super Mare soon.This concept is entirely community focused, and the business model does not follow an old paradigm. We run the centres as Private Members Associations. It begins with the community, and people who are guided or inspired to learn about frequency healing for themselves can become volunteers. The volunteers take advantage of the machines to begin their own healing journey as part of the volunteer package. Their personal experience is both a learning curve for them and becomes a way to inspire others. Any profit is both shared and used to expand.Our vision is to have affordable frequency medicine for as many people as possible. We want to work with others who are interested in having their own centre among their own alternative groups. We want to help them get started.So many people are becoming disenchanted with, and leaving the NHS, and seeking an alternative. Many of the private alternatives are just too expensive for the average person, especially if they need intensive care in their journey. We encourage health sovereignty, which means taking control of your own health and educating yourself. We help facilitate that journey by offering wellness solutions and continuing to improve our own knowledge so we can share our wisdom, or signpost to those who are more knowledgeable. We are building a library of alternative healing books in our centres. Glastonbury has the biggest library with an eclectic mix of volumes on many aspects of health, nutrition, and alternative viewpoints.Siobhan talks about:How we started, from EMF shielding to resilience and wellbeing.What devices we use and new developments.Health sovereignty and what it means for us all.Contact SiobhanWebsite https://www.frequency-medicine.co.ukClinics in Glastonbury, Basingstoke, Bridpot and Weston-super-MareEmail Siobhan with your questions:[email protected] / [email protected]: 01458 898567 / 01256 280777 Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Fostering Your Relationships At Work And Home With Cathie Gregg

    Who is Cathie Gregg?Cathie teaches us how to have a healthy relationship.My first career was as an Army Officer, training soldiers and officers in a variety of skills including military subjects, languages, presentation techniques and management.My second career was running a language training business in France, where we now live.My third career has been to deliver management and leadership training courses, along with team training and customer service courses (including conflict management training and mentoring in a variety of businesses and charities, in UK and France, but mainly in veterinary practices. I like to work in small to medium businesses, where the kind of training I do reflects the values of the leadership perhaps more than in a corporate environment.Every training course I run contains an element of an idea called the 5 Love Languages, from a book written decades ago by American psychologist and family therapist Gary Chapman. In a business environment, it is applied as “languages of appreciation” , which has been systemised as business training, very successfully by Dr Chapman, working with business consultant Dr Paul White.With my professional head on I use this training to build teams and to reduce conflicts and toxic atmospheres at work, and to enhance management of personnel to improve performance – it is incredibly effective at increasing productivity, cooperation and reducing staff turn-over. But my private mission is to give people one single, powerful tool to improve ALL their relationships, which I think has a huge effect on health, well-being and resilience. I have seen some wonderful effects after 2 days of training – people talking to their mother or father after years of estrangement, couples deciding not to split up, colleagues who have hated each other becoming friends – and this on a work team-training course! I love the fact that it provides a holistic approach to work AND family and social relationships.Cathie talks about how to have a healthy relationship:The idea of love languagesWhy it is so awesome for your health.How it enhances every human relationship and feeds into a sense of well-being in a virtuous circle, and how a lack of understanding of this mechanism of the human psyche can be devastating when it goes wrong.How to discern the love languages of those around you – and your own.A few examples of how to apply this knowledge in a personal and a work context.Contact Cathie –Website www.gregglangues.comEmail [email protected] are the 5 love languages by Dr. Gary Chapman: https://5lovelanguages.com/learnI run workshops, rather than lecturing and I am very happy to train trainers to do what I do.I would encourage people to get Gary Chapman’s books – he has written a number of versions, for couples, children, teenagers (extremely useful!) application in the workplace, and one specifically for men.Dr Paul White has a website called appreciationatwork.com, where there are lots of resources for organisations and businesses. I tailor-make my training to any business, charity or school that I work with, so that it is part training, part consultancy; which I find more effective than a generic package – and we have fun too. There’s lots of laughter at our workshops, which opens the heart and mind to change in a remarkable way.The training is open to individuals and families as well, though I must stress I am not a family counsellor. Rather I treat the couple or family as a team, working out how to enhance their common life.Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Foraging for Gut Health with Rachel Robertson

    Who is Rachel Robertson?Fifteen years ago, my own health struggles, those of my family and reading the book ‘Deschooling Society’ were catalysts in embarking on a self-reliance journey to reclaim power over food, my family’s health and my children’s education. I trained as a naturopathic nutritionist in 2019 and now specialise in gut health, drawing especially on ancestral nutrition and traditional Western herbalism. I manage a busy practice in Brighton, incorporating colonic hydrotherapy into my gut-healing protocols. I offer programmes in person and remotely and run regular online group gut reset programmes. I have been leading foraging workshops since 2020, covering areas such as foraging for food and medicine in survival contexts, foraging for gut health and bespoke foraging events. I’m involved as a parent and foraging teacher at HOPE Sussex Freedom Home Education Hub, where I also co-created a thriving vegetable and medicinal herb garden.I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with traditional skills and empowering them to take back control of their health. Rachel talks about…I will be explaining the main pillars of good gut health, how to tell if things aren’t working well and how to nourish and heal your gut, matching herbs you can find outside your front door to what your gut actually needs.

    Natural Wellbeing – Brand Zero with Sasha Evans

    Who is Sasha Evans?My name is Sasha and I run Brand Zero, a small natural wellbeing business based in the heart of Gloucestershire.I was influenced from an early age by my mother who didn’t agree with doctors, instead she was totally into natural ways.My natural products can be as effective as commonly prescribed pharmaceuticals for a range of ailments. The advantage is that they are completely non toxic with no side effects.I’m inspired and motivated by finding new ways to help people overcome chronic pain, inflammation, depression, anxiety, and so on, without resorting to prescribed medication. Knowledge is freedom and power, and my aim is to help people take their health and wellbeing into their own hands by showing them how much they can achieve with the things that are available to us naturally. It’s an incredibly exciting field and it teaches me new things every day. Brand Zero was founded in early 2020, in response to the growing problem of plastic waste and unnecessary packaging, as well as the harmful ingredients found in so many modern skincare and wellbeing products.I’ve long made creams and essential oil blends for friends and family. During the lockdown, people were experiencing terrible skin problems from increased hand washing and sanitisers. Hospitals were appealing for people to donate hand creams to the staff. I created a fundraiser to supply pots of my soothing beeswax balms to over 1,000 nurses and carers across the Stroud area, and in the process Brand Zero was born. Since then, the range has grown to include massage oils, bath oils, shampoo bars, aromatherapy oils, organic handmade soaps – in real life the shop smells incredible!Sasha talks about:How Brand Zero began and the journey it’s taken me.Natural WellbeingThe Natural First Aid ToolkitContact Sasha:Website www.brandzeronaturals.co.ukEmail [email protected] offer for PainFree listeners – Buy theThe Natural First Aid Toolkit for £60 instead of £68Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

It is who I am.To help someone get out of pain and walk out of my clinic with a spring in their step or a smile is for me a moment of joy – Every time! It feels good to make someone’s day and the trust people place in me is humbling. It is also fun and people are interesting. I have a 94 year old chap who after his treatment often exclaims “Oh good! Now I can run amok!”I try to have balance in my work and life but it all tends to merge!Growing organic food, flowers and plants with which to make lotions, potions and teas make me very happy.

    Violet Ray Devices with John (the violet ray guy)

    Violet Ray Devices: A Forgotten Invention of Nikola TeslaWho is John Drakeford (the violet ray guy)?Violet Ray Devices: A Forgotten Invention of Nikola Tesla.I’ve long admired Nikola Tesla, but until a few years ago I had no idea about one of the most curious legacies of his work: the violet ray device.Tesla is among the most prolific inventors in history. He pioneered alternating current, which powers our modern world, and contributed to early X-ray imaging, wireless communication, radio, and even visionary attempts at wireless global energy transmission with his Wardenclyffe Tower. Among his many inventions, Tesla’s high-frequency “resonance transformers” — better known today as Tesla coils — laid the foundation for a class of electrotherapy devices that became famous in the early 20th century: the violet ray.How the Violet Ray Works –At the heart of a violet ray machine is a Tesla coil, which generates a high-frequency, high-voltage, but low-current electrical discharge. This current is delivered through glass electrodes filled with inert gases, usually argon or neon. When electrified, the gas produces a glowing plasma discharge. With argon, the light appears violet — hence the name.The treatment involved placing the electrode directly on the skin or holding it slightly above, allowing a gentle spark to jump to the body. Users described the sensation as a mild tingling or warmth, often accompanied by a faint ozone smell.Rise of ElectrotherapyIn the early 1900s, electricity was seen as a force of wonder, mystery, and untapped potential. Naturopaths, alternative healers, and even mainstream doctors were fascinated by its possibilities. An article from 1900 captured the spirit of the era when Schaefer declared: “Nothing in modern science causes us so much amazement as electricity, the sovereign ruler of all.”Manufacturers quickly capitalized on this fascination. Violet ray machines were marketed as miracle devices, capable of treating hundreds of ailments. Advertisements claimed benefits for conditions ranging from arthritis, rheumatism, poor circulation, and nervous disorders to hair loss, skin conditions, digestive issues, cataracts, and even psychiatric illnesses. Some spiritual healers, including Edgar Cayce, even suggested they could aid in cases of “possession” or mental imbalance.Home-use kits were sold alongside professional medical models. The main difference was the number and variety of glass attachments, each shaped for a particular part of the body. The literature often listed more than 200 ailments the device supposedly treated, making it one of the most widely marketed health products of its time.Decline and ControversyDespite their popularity, violet ray devices faced increasing resistance from the mainstream medical establishment, which was becoming more tightly aligned with pharmaceutical-based treatments. By the 1930s and 40s, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration began cracking down on manufacturers for unverified medical claims. Court cases, fines, and stricter regulations led to their decline.By the late 20th century, only a handful of manufacturers remained, including Holo Electron in France and Tefra in Germany. Today, only Tefra continues to produce a version of the device, though modern units use solid-state circuitry and are generally marketed for cosmetic or relaxation purposes rather than medical claims. Many enthusiasts feel these modern versions lack the power and effectiveness of their vintage predecessors.A Personal ExperienceFor me, the violet ray story isn’t just historical curiosity — it’s personal. Years ago, I underwent four surgeries on my right shoulder for repeated glenoid labrum tears. When I later injured my left shoulder, I dreaded the prospect of going under the knife again. Around that time, I discovered violet ray devices and bought a small vintage unit.After two weeks of daily treatments, my shoulder improved dramatically. The surgery I thought was inevitable was no longer necessary. That experience lit a spark in me — I’ve been collecting, restoring, and researching these devices ever since.Over time, I’ve heard countless testimonials of people finding relief from arthritis, cystitis, and other stubborn ailments using these old machines. While modern medicine doesn’t endorse such claims, it’s hard to ignore the passion and stories of those who’ve experienced benefits first hand.Legacy of the Violet RayThe violet ray is a fascinating intersection of science, invention, and culture. It represents an era when electricity was still seen as a mystical force, a time when inventors and healers believed it could transform health and human potential.Today, these devices live on as collector’s items, curiosities, and tools for enthusiasts like myself who continue to explore their possibilities. Whether one views them as genuine therapy, quirky pseudoscience, or simply a piece of Tesla’s incredible legacy, the violet ray stands as a testament to human curiosity and our search for healing in unconventional ways.John talks about:How Nikola Tesla’s Tesla coil technology led to the creation of the violet ray device.Why violet ray machines became hugely popular in the early 1900s as electric cure-all devices.Why the violet ray faded from mainstream medicine but still has a loyal following today.Contact JohnWebsite https://violetray.co.uk/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/1566007327611920Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

I have been studying dowsing for some years now and am happy to get others to also pick up the dowsing ball and run with it.

It can get as complex as you care to make it, but there are simple benefits that one can acquire and work with, right from the start.I’ll attempt to explain this, but like everything we strive to become good at it does take time to make it a subconscious act. The important thing is that it is fun and, if entered into, with due care, will develop level headedness, as you get results.Geoff explains all:How does dowsing work?What are the basic principles?What can you find with dowsing?Contact GeoffMob: 07770898909Email: [email protected] Dowsers https://britishdowsers.orgWaverley Dowsers in Godalming, Surrey https://www.waverleydowsers.co.ukTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    The Buttafly Technique with Loulou James

    Gentle realignment for natural back care and spine health.Who is Loulou James?Loulou James is a retired physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and spine health specialist. A chance discovery – using precise pelvic support with the Buttafly prop she originally designed as a simple yoga block and meditation seat – led to immediate spinal realignment and, within weeks, resolution of long‑standing symptoms. That insight evolved into the Buttafly Technique: a gentle, non‑invasive approach that works with the body’s innate intelligence to calm the nervous system and support natural healing. Loulou now teaches individuals and practitioners practical, safe protocols for natural back care and spine health.Why I do thisToo many people are suffering needlessly. I believed in body wisdom, yet it wasn’t until the Buttafly Effect that I finally joined the dots: the spine has its own intelligence. After 30 years in physiotherapy, that realisation was shocking and transformative. I am committed to sharing with people how to engage that intelligence so they can experience natural back care and spine health gently and consistently, for themselves at home.This session introduces a gentle, practical way to engage your body’s wisdom for natural back care and spine health. Loulou shares the story behind the Buttafly Technique and how precise pelvic support can facilitate natural spinal realignment while calming the nervous system. We’ll unpack core principles—positioning and relaxation, and why this approach often avoids post‑treatment soreness. Attendees leave with clear, at‑home steps and guidance on when to seek practitioner support.*Loulou has been shortlisted for the Complimentary Medical Association’s “Innovation in Healthcare” award at this year’s Global Excellence Summit.Loulou talks about:The discovery: from a simple prop to immediate realignmentWorking with the body’s innate intelligence: the craniosacral “still point” and nervous‑system calm (plain language)Safety and consistency: protocols that avoid overwhelm and post‑treatment sorenessCommon outcomes: relief from back pain/sciatica; improvements in posture, pelvic stability, neck alignment; adjunct to pelvic‑floor programmes like MUTUHow to get started at home: what you need, simple steps, and practitioner pathwaysContact Loulou:Website: https://thebuttafly.comLearn the Buttafly Technique (programs and workshops): https://thebuttafly.com/the-buttafly-technique-for-a-healthy-spineBook a 1:1 consultation (online): https://thebuttafly.comPractitioner training and certification (protocols and safety): https://thebuttafly.comBuy the Buttafly (Standard for the Technique): https://thebuttafly.comEbook — The Buttafly Technique: https://thebuttafly.comContact/Social: Instagram @the_buttaflyLinkedIn /in/louloujamesYouTube @TheButtaflyTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Health Retreats For Chronic Illness With Sally Beck

    Who is Sally Beck?Sally is a freelance national newspaper journalist, author and ghostwriter. Only one British newspaper has escaped her byline – The Guardian.Health is a driving interest. She has commissioned and edited alternative health books and in 2022 and 2023 organised two doctors’ conferences with dissenting medical experts.From the start of the pandemic, she questioned whether issues — including vaccine injury and regulatory oversight — were properly examined. While mainstream titles declined to pursue that perspective, The Conservative Woman has published around 170 of her articles. More recently, the Daily Mail has published two of her investigations into vaccine injury.Sally talks about:I’m really keen to discuss health retreats that address serious chronic health issues.I’ve launched two retreats in Zanzibar, Deep Reset & Restore which is a clinical hypnotherapy retreat to address chronic stress, burnout, and living in survival mode. And Thyroid Wellness. Thyroid patients rarely get holistic care which means an endless round of specialist appointments, no discussion about nutrition or supplementation or the psychological drivers of thyroid dysfunction, or what to do if you don’t want to take the meds. The Thyroid Wellness retreat is suitable even if you’ve had your thyroid removed or partly removed or if you’ve developed a goitre. Here are brief details:Deep Reset & Restore,focuses on the physiological imprint of chronic stress—working with the nervous system at a foundational level. Over nine restorative days, you’ll step away from the noise of everyday life and begin to recognise the survival patterns—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—that keep the body hypervigilant, depleted or shutdown. With expert guidance, this work becomes less about managing stress, and more about gently retraining your system towards safety, regulation, and a more sustainable energy.Our ten-day Thyroid Wellness Retreattakes a deeper approach to thyroid health by recognising that thyroid dysfunction is rarely the beginning of the story. In our experience, chronic stress is one of the most significant drivers of thyroid imbalance, and meaningful, lasting improvement is difficult to achieve without addressing the underlying stress burden on the body.The thyroid is often the final signal, not the first signal, that something is wrong. Symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, low mood, and hormonal disruption can reflect deeper imbalances that have developed over time. Rather than focusing solely on the thyroid itself, our holistic approach combines advanced biofeedback diagnostics with personalised care to identify potential root causes, reduce stress, and support the body’s natural capacity to heal.Contact Sally:Website purehealthzanzibar.comTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Grief As A Portal Of Deep Healing with Mani Hirani

    Who is Mani Hirani?Mani Hirani is the founder of The Veda Soul Company and a ceremonial guide who weaves cacao, sound, and sacred grid work to support deep inner alignment.After more than two decades in investment banking, Mani followed a calling toward healing and creative expression, training in cognitive hypnotherapy, shamanic energy healing, and vocal transmission.Her work invites people into embodied connection with their true essence through ceremony, art, and sacred space.A theme that has become central to my work is grief as a portal for healing. This comes from my own lived experience, where grief has been one of my greatest teachers. Often grief is something people around us don’t quite know how to hold, so we can feel pressure to rush through it or move away from it altogether. Yet when we allow it the space it asks for, grief can open a doorway to deep healing and transformation.Through ceremony, cacao, voice, and sacred space, I now support others in gently meeting those tender places within themselves. When grief is met with presence, compassion, and sacred space, it can become a powerful portal back to the heart.Mani talks about:Grief as a portal for healing, and what it has taught me through my own lived experienceWhy grief is often avoided in our culture, and the pressure many people feel to rush through itCreating sacred space for grief through ceremony, cacao, voice, and presenceThe journey from surviving loss to reconnecting with the heartHow honouring grief can open the doorway to deeper self-understanding and transformationContact ManiWebsite www.thevedasoulcompany.comFacebook https://www.facebook.com/VedaSoulCompanyX https://x.com/vedasoulcompanyYouTube https://www.youtube.com/@vedasoulInstagram https://www.instagram.com/vedasoulcompanyCourses or programs – https://thevedasoulcompany.com/chakric-voyageCeremonies – https://thevedasoulcompany.com/cacao-ceremoniesFree resources – https://thevedasoulcompany.com/free-resourcesTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Who is Annie Lei Dobbs?Annie Lei Dobbs is a mental-health advocate, peer-support guide and holistic healing practitioner dedicated to helping women who feel lost, overwhelmed or misunderstood.After years of being misdiagnosed, over-medicated and told her pain was simply “female angst,” Annie found herself trapped in her own body—sad, self-harming, disconnected and struggling to cope as a young mum. Doctors placed her on antidepressants, anti-anxiety medication, sleeping tablets and hormones, leaving her feeling like a zombie, unable to recognise herself or feel present with her children.Everything changed when Annie chose a complete reset.

From there, she began a deep healing journey—Reiki, tuning forks, chakra balancing, aura work, crafts for mindful grounding—and slowly reclaimed her identity, purpose and joy.Now diagnosed as ADHD and autistic, Annie uses her neurodivergent empathy and lived experience to support other women who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in cycles of anxiety, panic, stress, trauma or confusion. She helps women explore holistic options, empowering them to make choices that restore balance, independence and self-belief.Annie works with vulnerable women, neurodiverse women and anyone needing compassionate advocacy, emotional support and a safe space to breathe again.She offers:Reiki (mobile + treatment room in Colchester)Sound healingChakra and aura balancingEnergy cleansing for homesTailored consultations and coping-strategy supportGuidance for women navigating mental-health challengesAnnie is creating her dream: a hippy-style crystal shop and healing space dedicated to women finding their truth.Annie talks about:On the podcast, Annie shares:Her powerful personal journey from over-medicated and overwhelmed to awakened, grounded and self-healedHow nature, spirituality and holistic healing transformed her lifeThe reality of being misdiagnosed and misunderstood as a young womanThe emotional experience of ADHD, autism and deep empathyHow she helps women break the cycle of panic, stress and mental fogPractical tools and gentle healing approaches for young women needing supportWhy no one is meant to “stay strong” all the time—and the importance of allowing yourself to feel Annie’s Tip:“Take a moment to be upset.

    Healing with Essential Oils with Tanya Maidment

    Who is Tanya Maidment?doTERRA Wellness Advocate Tanya Maidment is a mother of two and the owner of #GreenLifeOrganics. Fifteen years ago, she stepped away from a career in environmental science to begin a personal journey towards creating a happier, healthier, and more sustainable future for herself and her family.Passionate about supporting others on their wellness journeys, Tanya loves to educate and inspire people to embrace a more natural, low-tox lifestyle. She regularly teaches about the physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits of essential oils, empowering others to make simple, positive changes in their everyday lives.Currently residing in the south west of England, she was first introduced to doTERRA essential oils by an integrative GP while she was living in Australia. She quickly discovered their potency and effectiveness, particularly for emotional support, immune health, and minor first aid. This passion for a natural “first aid kit” led her to start sharing with others, and she soon built an international team, teaching and supporting communities around the world.Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts containing natural compounds that interact with the body in different ways. When inhaled, their aroma stimulates the olfactory system, which is closely linked to areas of the brain involved in mood, stress, and emotions — helping to promote feelings of calm or uplift. When applied to the skin (properly diluted), some components can be absorbed and support relaxation, soothe discomfort, and promote overall wellbeing.Some essential oils, including certain doTERRA oils labelled as “food grade,” can be used in small amounts internally to support areas such as digestion, immunity, and inflammation. Essential oils are highly concentrated, so quality and safe usage are essential.doTERRA essential oils are rigorously tested and responsibly sourced from around the world. Their purity and potency are important factors in achieving consistent results.In this session, Tanya will explain:• how essential oils work and why purity and sourcing matter;• how to use them safely and effectively;• practical ways to support emotional wellbeing, sleep, digestion, hormonal balance, inflammation, immunity, and low-tox living;• the best oils to start with and how to purchase them at the most affordable prices; and• how to access ongoing resources to support your essential oil wellness journey.Contact Tanya –If you are interested in another essential oil topic such as low tox living, digestive health, a deeper dive into pain or emotional wellbeing then let me know!Essential oils have been a game-changer for my family’s physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing—such a wonderful addition to any wellness toolkit!

    Energy Medicine with Mel Riley

    Who is Mel Riley?I’m a vibrational therapist. It’s all about changing the vibration of you and also the planet and the land that you live on and your home.I’m a land and body dowser who locates and addresses the imbalances and stresses in the body and land.I use crystals because they change the vibration wherever you put them. Depending on how big the blockages are depends on how much they change.I mostly do group work but also for 121’s I dowse the body, the centre and chakra system and the outside of the body. I place crystals on and around. The crystals I chose also help me to understand what’s going on inside the body eg Rhodonite I would know that person has a blockage in their heart or might be female damage, an over baring parent. It’s for unconditional love where that person needs to forgive and forget. Female energy.I do this for the land, sometimes up to 5 crystals. If I’m dowsing the land I figure out where the lay lines are, soldier activity etc.I use crystals or stone circles and earth acupuncture to clear difficult energy and realign. Working with the person so the energy can’t return. Raising the vibration of the land raises the vibration of the person. I’m a medium and clairvoyant for the land to identify the trauma that’s gone before – negative activity and use crystals to clear it. There is ALWAYS a connection to why we are on that piece of land.I run meditation and personal development groups called Personal Psychic and personal development. Where I teach people how to get some tools in their kit, basically what I do.I also teach dowsing, meditation.Mel talks about:Body and land dowsingRealigningContact Mel – Phone 07923132922Email [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/beinthelight_mel_Facebook https://www.facebook.com/melanierileyWebsite https://www.beinthelight.co.ukTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Multi-Story Meat – Tales of a Welsh Hill Farmer with Andrew and Liz Baker

    Andrew and Liz Baker talks about:The Baker's Pig - Welsh Charcuterie and Smokehouse.Creating a successful farm-to-fork food business.Sustainable farming methods.Who are Andrew and Liz Baker?founders of The Baker's Pig - Welsh Charcuterie and Smokehouse. They are passionate, self-confessed foodies who have transformed their love of pigs, wellies and the great outdoors to create a successful farm-to-fork food business. They create a delicious range of award winning air-dried, fermented and smoked meats on their farm, located on the edge of the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park.Andrew & Liz first started keeping Berkshire pigs nearly 30 years ago when they moved into a small rented farm in West Wales. Andrew says "Our main reason for moving to the countryside was to escape the bustle of the city and look for a better quality of life". Andrew & Liz reared free-range, Berkshire pork on the farm, grew their own vegetables and collected the chickens eggs.Life really was sweet, if not a little chaotic.Work commitments took them both away from pig keeping and out of Wales for a short while. After several career moves they settled back in South Wales and lived in Swansea. Liz says "We lived in a three storey townhouse with a garden around 10 foot square, before moving to an 11 acre ramshackled farm in Upper Brynamman".Andrew and Liz bought Ty'r Cwm farm in 2011. Over the following seven years they both worked hard to re-instate a traditional farmhouse property that dates back almost 200 years. Once owned by the Amman Valley Iron Company, Ty'r Cwm farm can be found nestled at the base of the Black Mountain. Although the land had not been farmed since the mid 1970's, local residents still have very fond memories of it as a traditional working farm. Andrew says “We have received help and advice from neighbouring farms to bring the land back into good order. Today, we are committed to running the farm using sustainable farming methods.”Contact Andrew and Liz:Website https://thebakerspig.com/Email [email protected] are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

Hawkins, whose scale of consciousness identifies higher human qualities such as Courage (200), Reason (400), Peace (600+), and Enlightenment (1000), which the organisers believe represent the highest values in human development.The ceremony brought together researchers, journalists, campaigners, academics, and independent thinkers to discuss ideas often considered controversial or outside mainstream viewpoints, with repeated emphasis on open discussion, critical thinking, and questioning official narrativesTalks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.

    Family Constellations with Poppy Altmann

    – Healing and trauma in a group experienceWho is Poppy Altmann? – I worked as a homoeopath for over 10 years before finding Family Constellations in a field in Somerset in the summer of 2015. Suffering with some serious stress related health problems, as well as a hefty load of inherited trauma, I was blown away by the improvement in my health within a couple of days – this was even before I had done my own piece of work. I went on to start my training with Barbara Morgan a few weeks later, becoming a facilitator in January 2017. I did two more trainings as an apprentice trainer with Barbara and started working as her assistant trainer in 2022. I am now working for the second time in this role, and plan to start my own training in the next year or so. Family Constellations is a group practice where we look at unconscious loyalties and traits that are carried through families as a result of trauma. My particular passions are around the processing of trauma through embodiment practices, and also atunement, both as a facilitator and a participant. I lead Family Constellations group workshops and retreats in London, Wales, Greece, Ireland and elsewhere. I offer individual constellations sessions in Richmond, Surrey, in Twickenham and online, as well as working as guest trainer on Roisin Fallon’s training in Ireland.Poppy talks about:What happens in a Family Constellations group session.Other situations where Constellations can be used (Nature constellations, organisational constellations etc).A bit about the history and the main principles of Family Constellations.The story of my own health journey relating to inherited trauma, particularly on my father’s side (he was a holocaust survivor).Anything else that comes up in the moment.Contact Poppy –Website: www.poppyaltmann.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063592629222 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/poppy_altmann_constellations/ Email me on [email protected] to set up a 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝟏𝟓 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.Talks are hosted by Althea Finch at The PainFree Method, how to be pain free by tuning into you.
