I'm Emma an Acupuncturist/Energy Healer, a Positive Birth Coach and an Empowerment Coach for parents of children with additional need. While I have 2 different strands to my business the overall aim of both is the same ... to empower you during your pregnancy, birth or parenting journey. 

As a Positive Birth Coach I teach expectant couples brain training techniques including hypnobirthing & mindfulness so they will feel calm, confident and in control during labour.I review the evidence around all the choices for your birth plan, walk you through how to decide what the right choices are for you and teach you how to advocate for yourself in labour. I teach birth partners lots of different pain relief techniques so they can be a strong support during labour.

Acupuncture was my first step on the road to becoming a healer. Over the years I added to may skill set by training in biomechanics, EFT and TFT tapping.  Then I  found myself more drawn into the world of energy healing.  I trained in Reiki level 1 with the intention of only using Reiki on myself but it  was so beneficial that I found myself signing up to train as practitioner almost immediately. After a few years of working with Reiki energy I knew there was something more I needed to do. But  I was unsure of what it was. So I  went on a spiritual retreat where I discovered that I have powerful Angelic healing abilities. So I trained as an  Angelic Healer and here I am!

Over the years I have come across numerous clients who have experienced birth or medical trauma (and having experience medical trauma myself)  I wanted to provide further help to these clients.  I trained in the 3 step Rewind Process for Trauma/Phobia Release is a gentle approach derived from NLP ( Neuro Linguistic Programming).  This process can help shift challenging emotions that may arise in an individual who has experienced a challenging event or phobia.  The process is not talk therapy. Some people may wish to share their story at the beginning but it is not required.  It works by helping to separate the event from the challenging emotions.  By doing so, the memory of the event can be processed by the mind and this allows you to look to the future and your own desired outcome. The 3  Step Rewind Process can be  used for any related or once off trauma including but not limited to birth, medical, infertility or breastfeeding trauma. It is also suitable if you were a witness to trauma for example for birth partners. 

My journey to being an Empowerment Coach for parents started with my second son.  As his parents we have been through  some tough years trying to get a diagnosis for him and then dealing with that diagnosis. I found that I was relying on a lot of the tools I was teaching as positive birth coach to help me deal with stress and anxiety. These tools really helped me and ultimately my entire family. I had a lightbulb moment where I realised that these were tools that a lot of parents of children with  additional needs/chronic illnesses/neurodiversity/disabilities could benefit from.  That is when I decided to set up my Find Your Joy business to provide classes, retreats and healing services to parents to both heal and empower them  on their parenting journey.

My services are  Acupuncture, Reiki Angelic Energy Healing and Trauma/Phobia Release in my clinic and online.

I also offer retreats and hypnobirthing classes - see my website for more details.

I also have online birth courses on my website. www.bewellacupuncture.ie/challenges
