Biodynamic Medicine
Biodynamic Medicine is a holistic approach to health and wellbeing that supports us in returning to our vibrant, true selves by integrating the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual layers of our being. Working with the cosmic energy and natural rhythms it works on a cellular level with the body's innate wisdom to restore balance and vitality. It emphasises the heart-brain-gut connection, psycho-peristalsis (the body's ability to process and release life experiences), and vibrational energy to promote deep healing and transformation.
"There is a healing mechanism in the body that dissolves muscle tension and resolves emotional and psychological conflict on the unconscious organic level. This is known as “psycho-peristalsis”
- Gerda Boyesen -
How does Biodynamic Medicine work?
Biodynamic Medicine helps restore the natural flow of energy and vital fluids in the body. These can often become blocked or disrupted by stress and life experiences. These blockages can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or out of balance. By clearing these interruptions, the body’s natural energy can move freely again, helping us feel more like our true selves.
This holistic approach combines psychotherapy, bodywork, and energy healing to address the root cause of issues—not just the symptoms. It reactivates the body’s natural ability to heal and brings balance back to your whole being.
The Role of the Brain-Gut Connection
Research shows that the gut, brain, and heart are deeply connected, working together to process emotions and influence our overall well-being. This connection plays a key role in our physical, emotional, and mental health.
Biodynamic Medicine works with this brain-gut connection to release emotional stress and tension stored in the body. By activating this natural pathway, it helps clear unresolved emotions and supports the body’s natural cleansing and healing processes.
The result? Greater balance, health, and harmony—emotionally, mentally, and physically.

History and Understanding
Biodynamic Medicine was developed by Clinical Psychologist Gerda Boyesen, who discovered that the gut—often called the “second brain”—plays a key role in processing emotions and psychological experiences, not just digesting food. This natural process, known as psycho-peristalsis, helps the body release stress and restore balance.
When the body is in a state of balance (homeostasis), psycho-peristalsis works smoothly, allowing us to process emotional experiences and maintain a sense of harmony.
Today’s fast-paced, high-stress world means that this process is often interrupted and so unresolved emotions or trauma can build up and create blockages that disrupt our natural flow.
These blockages can show up as:
Emotional disturbances
Physical tension or pain
Irritability
Lack of confidence
Unease and Disease
Even subtle disruptions can leave us feeling disconnected, out of sync, or simply not ourselves.
We want to bring renewed respect to the expression
‘being full of yourself’
A phrase that, in its truest sense, speaks to the importance of reclaiming wholeness, presence, and flow within our lives.
By restoring the natural rhythm of psycho-peristalsis, and heart, brain, gut connection we allow the body and mind to clear, heal, and return to a state of vibrant balance.
“We have to un-become who we have become, and find a way home to ourselves - to become who we really are.”

Biodynamic One to One Sessions
A Biodynamic Practitioner is a psychotherapist and skilled bodyworker who works at a deep, soul level with a pure intention to guide individuals toward flourishing, thriving, and fully embodying themselves.
Holistic Methods for Deep Healing
Biodynamic sessions use a combination of techniques tailored to the individual, including:
Talking Therapy:
Gently exploring and resolving emotional and mental matters.Bodywork and Biodynamic Massage:
Supporting physical release and tapping into the body’s innate wisdom.Biofield and Subtle Body Work:
Non-touch methods that work within the body’s energy field and at the cellular level to encourage healing.
At the core of this process is psycho-peristalsis, the body’s natural ability to clear unresolved emotions and stress. By activating this function, Biodynamic sessions bring lasting and meaningful change, addressing issues at their root to restore balance and harmony. A therapist uses a loud speaker stethocope as a diagnostic tool to hear the sounds of the gut. Often times when we are working online with a client lightness comes, they start to giggle and their tummy starts to ‘join’ in the ‘conversation’ (Freud) quite audible without any speaker!
Supporting the Soul to Thrive
Each session is designed to:
Reconnect you to your essence – what truly lights you up, nourishes you, and brings meaning to your life
Restore deep balance – supporting harmony in your body, mind, and spirit (homeostasis)
Release accumulated stress – clearing physical and emotional blockages that disrupt your flow
Strengthen your sense of wholeness – helping you align with your natural rhythm and authentic self
This profound work reaches deep into the cellular and energetic layers of your being to clear, realign, and restore. By resolving what has been holding you back, each session invites you to reconnect with your natural flow and thrive in the fullest expression of yourself.
A Safe, Nurturing Space
The relationship between practitioner and client is central to the work, creating a supportive environment without judgement or criticism, where the client feels safe to explore and release anything that interrupts their natural flow. Whether it’s stress, emotional blockages, or patterns of resistance or holding back. Each session provides the time and space needed for true transformation.

Ayurveda - a natural extension
A Path Back to Vibrant Health
While my one-to-one sessions with clients will always hold a special place in my work, I felt a growing desire to share this knowledge more widely, empowering individuals to take charge of their own health and wellbeing.
Through my ongoing studies, I discovered Ayurveda – the ancient, holistic guide to life – and realised it was the “practical arm” of Biodynamic Medicine that I had been searching for. Ayurveda’s profound wisdom offers a tangible, step-by-step approach to cultivating balance, healing, and vibrant health.
It was life-changing for me, and I knew it was the key to expanding my offerings beyond individual sessions.
The Power of Ayurveda
Ayurveda is a comprehensive system of lifestyle practices and resources that teaches us how to:
Undo and heal the effects of past imbalances
Maintain wellbeing through preventative, daily care
Live in harmony with our natural rhythms, the seasons, and ourselves
This ancient wisdom provides a clear path to self-love and self-care, equipping us with tools to restore balance and thrive – even amidst the many demands of modern life.
The Enrichment Programmes
In our Enrichment Programmes, we share these Ayurvedic lifestyle practices in a way that feels accessible, practical, and sustainable – even for the busiest among us. Step by step, you will:
Discover what works for you based on Ayurveda’s timeless principles
Integrate simple practices into your day-to-day life
Live what you learn so that it becomes instinctual – a natural, effortless part of your daily life
Over time, these practices create a new normal – one that feels nurturing, spacious, and orderly. Rather than adding to your to-do list, Ayurveda helps you reclaim time, energy, and a sense of calm. It aligns you with a natural flow of life, supporting you to feel grounded, balanced, and truly alive.
This is embodied knowledge – knowledge that you experience, feel, and live.
Join me on this path back to vibrant health, and discover how small, intentional steps can transform your life, inside and out.

The Five Senses: Windows to the Soul
Ayurveda beautifully describes the five senses as the “windows of the soul”—how we experience life, after all, is through our senses.
Among these, the sense of smell stands as the most powerful. Unlike our other senses, it directly connects to the brain's limbic system, which governs emotions, memory, and behavior. This unique connection allows scents to evoke deep emotional responses and trigger vivid memories instantly—bypassing conscious thought and creating a profound, immediate impact.
The Power of Pure Essential Oils
Working with pure essential oils offers a simple yet transformative way to:
Calm the mind and balance emotions
Promote physical healing by supporting the body's natural processes
Stimulate psycho-peristalsis - the body's innate clearing mechanism
Aromapoint Therapy
Aromapoint Therapy continues to amaze me. The idea that a single drop of oil, applied with light touch on a targeted quantum acupoint, can instantly shift how you feel is nothing short of astounding.
For me, pure essential oils have been life-changing. Over time, they have helped me reset my nervous system, bringing me to a state of deeper balance, relaxation, and embodiment. I have also witnessed clients experience immediate and profound shifts—feeling more centred, grounded, and connected to their inner self.
Pure essential oils feel like a family of friends—reliable, supportive, and wise. They are a beautiful resource for anyone looking to create subtle yet significant changes in their daily life.
