Anusha, tell us about your background, have you always been a therapist? How did you come to it?
I have a BCom degree and majored in Business Information Systems. My journey through the corporate world has taken me from the technical side of things into Human Resources where I worked in Human Capital Development. It was at this time through my exposure to lots of self development that I became interested in the mind-body connection. I started off with Body Work in 2003 instructing Pilates and later in 2007 started with subtle energetic work doing Reiki - all part time. My opportunity to practice as a complimentary therapist came when I relocated from South Africa to the UK about four and a half years ago.
What's the most valuable lesson you've learnt from your treatments?
The most valuable lesson I've learned is that I don't have control over the outcome of a treatment. The body will heal at it's own pace and in it's own time depending on the client's belief system as well as their physical and emotional states.

How do you relax?
I find quiet time after everyone in my house as retired to their rooms, normally around 10pm. I create a dimmed relaxing environment using lights and candles and unwind with a book for about twenty minutes and then spend some time doing a quiet reflection or a Reiki healing.
You've been working on Golborne Road for a few months now, what's your favourite thing about this street?
I don't think there is one thing! The things that draw me to it are the different aromas from the multi-cultural food stalls, the lively markets and the quirky antique shops and especially the lovely friendly people who create the ambiance of lively chatter on the pavements.
If you could take only 5 things to a secret island, what would they be?
A sketch pad, pencil colours, wheatgrass, a book - what ever I fancy at the time, at the moment I'm reading a book by Dr Joe Dispenza called Breaking the Habit of being yourself. Also a xylophone
That's an interesting range of objects! Who inspires you?
Children and nature
Finally, tell us a little something about yourself - what do you do when you’re not treating your clients?
I'm a mother of three teenage boys who keep me very busy with their various sports and leisure activities! I look forward to Sunday afternoons when we get to spend time together as a family. I volunteer at my local hospice two mornings a week and in between my daily chores and clients I try to fit in an activity such as stretching or Pilates. My interest in the mind body connection keeps me reading, Googling and speaking to people in the field constantly.
Thanks Anusha - I definitely feel we know a little more about you. Fascinated by the xylophone! :)
