Frances Englehardt is a holistic therapist and the inspiration and
vision
behind Gaia Visions yoga and meditation retreat on the Greek Island of
Zakynthos.
I had an intense spiritual awakening and life
transformation after a chronic illness which changed my life.
I share what I have learnt so far with others to help them on their
path. I have created a space for spiritual growth and
holistic healing for people to come and remember how to be!
My wish is that we all make a contribution to world consciousness and
peace by starting the process within ourselves.
My Background
In 1996 I was a successful high flier. I had my dream
job. I was 28 and was working on a joint management training
project with the British Council and Institute of Management. I had a
team of 10 people working for me and was living in Hong
Kong. I thought my life couldn't have been better.
I had a great lifestyle. I loved my job and had good friends
and a great social life. I was certainly someone who burnt
candles at both ends. I would go to work and then go out
straight after work - like many people in cities. I
used to hang out at the yacht club, eat in nice restaurants
didn’t have to worry where my next penny was coming from and
had frequent champagne lunches. This is what I had imagined
it would all be like after leaving my student days behind.
Then one day I went out, I was having a great time when
suddenly I felt terribly sick. I was so ill I could hardly
make my way home. This was the effect of ME. I
didn't know it then and thought I had a combination of a flu
virus and being hungover, but this is just how you feel with
ME. I felt too dizzy to stand up, I could hardly speak and
had so little energy and I just felt dreadful. I was someone
who was never ill and this was a real shock to me.
Eventually, I was so ill I was virtually bed-ridden for 2 years, not
knowing if I would ever work again or live a normal life.
I slowly retrained and left the corporate world of marketing and
training
and now I successfully work as a licensed practitioner of
NLP, a life-coach, Reiki healer, qualified massage therapist and yoga
teacher. I use my skills and experience to run my centre and
to help people transform their own lives.
My whole belief systems have changed. I had some very strange things
happen to me while I was ill. I received channellings, which I recorded
and use as guided meditations. I saw spirits and Angels who I am now in
touch with them and they help me in my healing work. I hope my
story inspires others through difficult times.
Gaia Visions offers yoga, meditation, massage, healing, Reiki training
and Life Coaching. Our activities are perfect for stress management, alternative
healing and spiritual growth.
