In today’s episode of the Tranquil Awakenings Podcast, Debbie will be in conversation with Rosalyn Palmer who is a transformational therapist and coach whose passion is enabling people to have lives that feel as good on the inside as they look on the outside.

Rosalyn started off her career in PR in the 1990’s, becoming a specialist for the personal development market. This encouraged her to train in hypnotherapy and NLP so that she had a deeper understanding of her clients’ craft. After the death of her father, a diagnosis of breast cancer, divorce, and going through the menopause, Rosalyn was on her knees, knowing that she needed to do something different with her life. Through taking charge of her healing, Rosalyn found purpose in helping others.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If we don’t make time for rest and well-being, then we are likely to burnout or become unwell.
• It is important to make lifestyle changes that benefit the mind and body to promote well-being.
• The body keeps a score of trauma and disharmonious situations. Therefore, it is important to work through these issues.
• Having a faith in something beyond the self can provide guidance and stability.
• Sometimes sitting with an issue is the most important thing we can do to in order to find solutions.
• Shared values are important within a relationship.
• When looking for your purpose, you can use the Japanese concept of Ikigai to discover your purpose and bliss.
• To help find your purpose you can ask yourself questions such as ‘When did you feel safe?’ ‘When did you feel happy?’ ‘What brings you joy?’

BEST MOMENTS

• “And when I was about seven, the annual I got, in the front it said, what do you want to be when you grow up? And I'd written an actress and a doctor in my spare time.”
• “Also, very importantly, in the 90s, I became a go to PR agent for the emerging new age, as it was then, and seen as very out there, personal development gurus.”
• “You know, quite a humble background. My parents were grocers. I lived above the shop in my early years, and I went to a comprehensive school, so this was not really my world.”
• “And most of them were Buddhists, they were macrobiotic, they were vegans, they were into Ayurvedic medicine, and acupuncture, and Shiatsu, and Kundalini Yoga, and all these things I'd never, ever heard of. And again, my mum thought I'd absolutely joined a cult.”
• “It's quite depressing seeing you because I'm just a sticking plaster, and I'm not sure if you're going to have the physical or the mental breakdown first.”
• “But I decided I was going to heal as holistically as I could and that was a total soul alignment and soul awakening and incredible time for me.”
• “When you train in therapy and healing, you work on yourself.”
