MAI’S JOURNEY & EXPERIENCE
Growing up in a family where her older sister had a severe eating disorder, Mai dealt with having heavy emotional responsibility from a young age. However, at the age of 21 the effect of living in a deeply stressful environment for many years had taken a toll on her body and she was diagnosed with a severe hormonal imbalance. Faced with being told by western doctors that this imbalance may cause her to never be able to have children and that there was no way to heal it, Mai was at a loss. It was a scary time ruled by despair and a feeling of not knowing what to do or where to turn. However it was this state that eventually led Mai to make the decision to try and find her own way to heal her body naturally - and as many crises in life tend to be, this situation turned out to be a great blessing. Because as inconvenient as it was, the beautiful thing about hormones, Mai learned, is that they are expressions of a dance between our mind, emotional and physical body. They speak of how balanced we are as a whole being - and so to heal Mai had to learn how to enquire and then listen inwards to create harmony on all levels for her as an individual.

Since beginning her Journey at 21 Mai has ventured far into holistic physical healing through education in nutrition, movement, mindfulness, sleep, and stress management. She has also traveled wide and far and sought out ancient knowledge of Eastern medicine, plant medicine, herbal supplements, the feminine cycle, and yoga. The studying of relationships through learning an incredible amount about the principles of feminine and masculine energies and the practice of applying these with grace, love, and truth both internally and externally with others has become a lifelong dedication. And finally, she has deep-dived into emotional healing through release work, trauma healing, inner child work, breath work, meditation, tantra, energy work, and working with incredible masters, keepers, and practitioners of a wide range of healing wisdom throughout the world.
Mai may have healed her hormonal imbalance, however forever a student, she continues to explore healing and wellbeing. What has become so very clear on her own journey of healing and discovery is that healing is an inside job that is individual for all of us. However, knowing how so many of us are clueless and desperate when forced to find our own way to heal, Mai not only puts forward her own experience, knowledge, and wisdom in her sessions; she is also dedicated to sharing all of the people who have helped her heal. For Mai, her purpose in life is to bring women the wisdom and knowledge we should have had when coming of age and bring women together so that we can rise by lifting, supporting, and inspiring one another.

Note From Mai: Going deeper within myself to heal my own pains is what has led me to where I am today. Making a difference on this planet by helping people evolve to living happier and healthier lives has since then become something my heart has felt a strong opening to offer to others. In the strive towards this, I have acquired quite a few skills and completed a number of qualifications over the years. In my experience however, COMPASSION and AWARENESS heals more than any of the certified qualifications that I have done could ever teach me.
The deeper I go and heal within myself, the more space I can hold for others; and the better I can lead you until you can eventually see yourself. Transmuting my own pains makes a difference to how I show up in the world. This is why I keep doing my own healing work every day and will never be done with my own self development practices. The number of self development courses I’ve done cannot be listed here as there would simply not be enough space. But do know this: I keep meeting myself in the deep therefore I am able to hold you in your depth.
