about Katie Hart

I’m Katie

Certified Trauma Informed Breathwork Facilitator & Usui Reiki Master

​

I battled with my own mental health for most of my twenties. I experienced first-hand the toll that anxiety and chronic stress can have on the mind and body. It resulted in me making my mind and body very sick. Unable to set boundaries and say no, I needed to people please to feel loved. Shame ruled my life telling me that I was unworthy and a failure. I constantly felt drained and lacked confidence.

The pandemic made me realise I needed to prioritise my mental health. I experienced what Carl Jung calls my dark night of the soul. Depression and anxiety had won. I was in a very dark hole and it felt like there was no way out. Feeling completely broken I began to piece myself together. I started to set boundaries, learn to love myself and heal.

During this period of healing, I discovered the power of breathwork. It was a way for me to reconnect with myself. It was a safe space for me to release emotions, quieten my mind and become empowered. Breathwork became my number one tool for self-care. I was immediately hooked simply because of the way breathwork made me feel. 

My first breathwork class was so transformative it left me needing to understand the modality. I was curious about what had happened to me during that session. Continuing to turn up to breathwork classes and have such a powerful experience, I booked in to study it. I had no intention of using the certification. However, as soon as I had completed the training I knew I was meant to be a breathwork facilitator. I was meant to help people heal through the power of their breath.

I went on to study Reiki. I have had the honour of experiencing the benefits of energy healing and wanted to pass this on to others. I have yet to give someone a treatment who hasn't felt the magical effects of reiki. Whether it's someone going into such a deep meditation, they're able to leave the world behind for an hour. Or someone whose chronic pain has been eased because they've released passed traumas and pain.

Before I retrained in alternative therapies I was an actor. My passion for singing and voice work helped to ignite my passion for breathwork. I felt called to explore the science and spirituality behind the power of the breath. My goal is to create a world where we all feel a little less alone. To do this, I'm now on a mission to help everyone transform their lives and overcome their anxiety. I want people to live feeling empowered, worthy and confident. I know first-hand how broken it can feel not to be living as your true self.

When I'm not guiding others on their own journey, you'll find me in the ocean. It's my happy place, I love to surf and swim. I'm always keen for an adventure and will never turn down an opportunity to explore. I'll never lose my love for performing and will happily sing along to any musical theatre song at the top of my voice. I have discovered my soul purpose of helping others heal their anxiety. I love sharing the gift of breathwork and reiki with others.
