Holistic health

Our breath is the bridge between the mind, body and nervous system. Working with our breath can profoundly alter our health and wellbeing

A transformative therapy that uses a state of deep relaxation to uncover and release subconscious habits, fears or beliefs

A traditional Japanese healing practice that uses gentle touch to facilitate energy flow through the body, restoring balance to the nervous system

Also known as Internal Family Systems, parts work uses the creative mind to explore the root of physical and psychological challenges

Explore your physical health beyond medical labels and treatments, to connect the dots through the wider lens of you as a whole person

Voice & sound healing

One to one or with groups, voice healing uses breath, tone and resonance to unlock and empower your true voice.

I create sound baths using crystal bowls and singing for a blissful and transcendent experience.

My background...

My initial training was in Speech and Language Therapy, and I spent 8 years working for the NHS and privately treating adults with voice and breathing difficulties. To read more about my work visit lydiahartvoice.com.

My journey with holistic therapies has grown organically. As a voice therapist working with body and breath has been a core part of my work, and I have always been interested in understanding the bigger picture. I had my first Reiki session in early 2022 and it was a profound experience that led to me training that summer. Introducing Reiki into my work with people who hadn't been making progress enabled huge shifts for them, and opened my mind to how I can best serve people as a therapist and healer.

I trained in hypnotherapy after an NHS patient of mine was cured of a voice problem with just a few sessions with a hypnotherapist, helping me to see beyond the biomedical model of care I was used to. I have integrated this with my experience of Internal Family Systems (parts) therapy, which has facilitated profound healing in myself and people I have worked with.

Women's work has been a core theme of my personal journey and work with others, particularly helping women with high stress levels or chronic health conditions.

I have attended and facilitated at multiple retreats and run regular group sessions.
