Hi, I'm Lauren Short, Meditation & Movement Facilitator & Holistic Coach
About me
Hey, I am Lauren Short
My business name is @heart_of_the_hunter. I am originally from the Hunter Valley. I previously worked in credit management for a top tier law firm and student education (corporate for 10+ years) in London and Sydney. I lived in Newcastle for 2 years, London for 8.5 years and Sydney for 5 years. I work at the beautiful Elysia Wellness Retreat.
In my spare time you will see me at the:
* Beach
* Picking flowers from the garden
* Relaxing and having a BBQ/picnic
* Dancing
* Moving (walking/yoga/bush walks)
* Learning something new
* Spending time with my loved ones
I have always had a passion for holistic health, wellness and fitness. I am a meditation and movement facilitator. I completed a Certificate IV in New Small Business through the New Enterprise Incentive Scheme program and was mentored for 12 months.
Highlights of my fitness and wellness journey so far:
* I have participated in two London marathons in aid of cancer research UK (26.2 miles).
* I have participated in several running events supporting charities: Breast cancer UK, children’s literacy foundation, Beyond Blue and Dementia Australia.
* I have trained a client to run in the city to Surf and complete the Kokoda trail in aid of Beyond Blue.
* Working for a not-for-profit charity teaching boxing and circuit training to a community.
* Teaching seated movement to elderly people
* Teaching chair yoga and meditation for a not-for-profit disability respite organization.
* Teaching meditation to the largest accounting firm in Australia.
* Facilitating a Mental Health Campaign ‘Kick Fear in the Hunter’.
* I have sponsored a child through the Young Living Foundation in Ecuador.
I was a ballet dancer for 10 years and I am a network marketing professional and brand partner for Young Living Australia. I am a mental health and suicide prevention first aider
When I work with my clients, I offer a holistic approach. I provide support that looks at the whole person, not just their mental health needs. The support addresses their physical, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing.
My inspiration is my pop it was so painful to watch him suffer with dementia. Sadly he passed away in February this year. I can’t stress the importance of good nutrition, exercise and reducing the chemical load in our homes and bodies by going lowtox (natural is best). He was always my number one supporter in everything I did.
