About Christina
Hello, I'm Christina, the founder of Gentle Return Healing. I offer gentle, heart-led Emotion Code and Body Code sessions supporting emotional, energetic and physical wellbeing.
My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity and respect for each person's individual experience. Rather than forcing change, I work alongside the subconscious mind and the body's innate wisdom, allowing the session to unfold around what is ready to be explored and supported.
I hope to offer a calm and supportive space where those who spend so much time caring for others can also receive some gentle support themselves.
About the Session
Sessions are offered remotely via Zoom or email and use Emotion Code and Body Code as approaches for exploring emotions, experiences and patterns that may be ready to come into awareness.
The session is personalised to you and may involve reflection and exploration of what feels appropriate in the moment.
Afterwards, you'll receive a personalised summary of the session, along with gentle aftercare suggestions and practices you may wish to explore in the days that follow.
