The Library
I love to go into my library at home where I have to hand all I need to help me guide clients on their therapeutic journey.
I enjoy spending time there, curating the many psychological tools I have, which I will later gift to individual clients.
I would also like to share some advice my meditation teacher gave me when we first met:
“No matter what you have read or learned in theory, when you sit in front of someone who is telling you their unique story. Be sure to hold your theories lightly in your hands.”
My teacher imparted a very precious life lesson, and that is to never pre-judge and to always take everyone as you find them.
The following recommendations are here for you to look at and choose from as you see fit.
As you move along your journey of self awareness and healing you will begin to find the right resources for you.
None of the practitioners, products or literature that I recommend pays me. I will only ever recommend resources and people who I have used or worked with. You can trust that the individuals I recommend are incredibly knowledgeable in their field and of the highest integrity.
So whether you are a company CEO, a teacher, an artist or an Olympic athlete, I am positive you will find something beneficial going forward.
Recommended Books.
Here are two practical books which will help you to improve your body and mind.
I will sometimes recommend books during your appointments. The books will be chosen to specifically address the issues you are facing.
Recommended Spa Retreats.
Working and training globally and living overseas has led me to be fortunate enough to immerse myself in many cultures and to experience diverse approaches to health and wellbeing.
I was fortunate enough to be a Visiting Consultant at Chiva Som Spa for over 5 years. Having grown up in my Mother’s residential Health Spa and seeing the balance of physical emotional and psychological benefits this gives, I would highly recommend that retreats and Spas are a part of your life.
Chiva Som is a Spa close to my heart and Sha is a Spa I now enjoy visiting (and is a little closer to home!). Both uphold incredible standards in treatments, nutrition and over all wellbeing expertise.

Recommended Products & Supplements.
Here are a range of products I use regularly to help maintain a healthy outlook.
SuperNova Living.
My wonderful friend Laurah and her husband Jermaine are the founders of this fantastic lifestyle brand. With the help of an expert Naturopath they have created one of the best protein powders I have used. They are also passionate about optimising health, having a great outlook and a balanced view of life and living.
Cytoplan.
Keeping a stock of good supplements is key and I would choose an organic brand with as few bulking agents as possible. When I order supplements for clients, I choose to get them from Cytoplan. You can also ask me about this in your appointments.
Supernova and the Cytoplan are available direct from Victoria, along with other supplements and tools to help you achieve optimum health and wellbeing. Simply contact Victoria to purchase these products and see what discounts are currently on offer.
