Hi, I’m Ellie

I’ve lived many lives, from pot-washing as a teenager, to travelling Europe growing drinks brands start-up’s. Chasing dreams of being a singer-song-writer, recording in studios and traipsing across London with my guitar - only to drown in shame, finding alcohol as a crutch to deal with the crippling self-doubt and anxiety and to relax my tight vocal cords. I tried my hand at office work but soon got let go because I couldn’t sit down for long, legging it up and down staircases for breaks, and down the opposite end of Regents Street for my coffee just to, “run it off”. Waitressing worked well for me because I could run, and perform, at the same time. Dog walking was even better. I played a lot of sport at school and got into the gym, where I realised that if I drank after shift for most of the night, I could throw myself straight into the gym at 6am the next morning, and it wouldn’t feel so hard - Imagine!

I’d fallen in love with acting from an early age, although was too shy to follow through to do anything about it until I realised there was such a place as drama school and so, at twenty-one, after much procrastination and soul-destroying with my under-cooked music career, I accepted my place studying a degree in Physical Theatre - what would be the catalyst for my undoing and healing journey, in equal measure. Acting made me feel important, I was good at it, I enjoyed the buzz, I enjoyed the way that Spirit moved through me… and I loved the social life with these wondrous, creative, and equally troubled new peers.

I’ve taught yoga in the South of France and lived in a tent for a Summer, I’ve travelled Asia with a backpack. I did the Australia thing that us Brits seem to love - and I did it all on a credit card (it was that or leave London to live with my parents, because my rising star career went cold and the rent couldn’t get paid). I’ve plundered myself into thousands of debt and I’ve worked my way back out of it. I’ve hosted long table dinners that have featured 7 courses of goat, and I’ve driven to the wrong addresses for children’s birthday parties - as the DJ host with full-set up (Mortifying!)

I’ve acted on film sets, I've assisted behind the camera and backstage in the West End. I’ve mixed with seedy people in Mayfair members clubs and I’ve learned how to charm my way into - and out of - almost nearly any situation (or situationship). I’ve volunteered as a listening Samaritan, and I’ve cooked breakfasts on Thursdays for the homeless community in Shoreditch church.

All I really am trying to say here is that I’m no different to you. And through all those brilliant times - I didn’t know then that I was running. I hadn’t yet realised that I couldn’t bare being myself - rooted in unexplained deep shame, and self-loathing. Searching desperately for somewhere to belong, or someone to claim me, be spotted or “picked up”. Scorsese wasn’t calling.

For a long time I chased meaning through late nights, work, parties and performance - galloping onwards until I was burning out and drifting away from the version of myself that felt most alive and true. I was battling a lifetime of poor self-image, manifested an eating disorder, and was completely unaware of my obvious neurodivergence, and even of my scholiosis (my spine is shaped like an “S”).

Bringing myself to feel a sense of safety, self-awareness and calm took a winding route through often challenging, body-led enquiry. Self-understanding and self-acceptance became the foundations for a life shaped from the inside out; A life rooted in new boundaries, clarity, and trust in my own choices.

Through Rewilding People, I offer grounded, trauma-aware one-to-one work for people who are ready to reconnect with their body, intuition and natural rhythm.

My sessions stitch together somatic enquiry (opening a dialogue with the body) through touch, breath, movement, and slowing down. I draw from fascia-focused bodywork, sound and energy vibrational therapy - with or without crystals, and intuitive practice. I will always meet you where you are, without force or fixing.

This work is spacious, attuned, and led with care. Whether we work together once for a facial ritual, or over time within a coaching pack, the intention is simple: to create the conditions for clarity, regulation, deeper self-trust… and for those open to it, a strengthened connection to the unseen.

This work exists because I live and breathe it, I’ve been where you are, and I’m still figuring it out alongside you. Only that maybe I’ve been hashing it out longer, I’ve studied a multitude of methods and I really know who I am, and I really like who I am - and it does get easier. I have courage and confidence in my ability to run towards my own dreams and ride them, because I often didn’t in the past. Instead I would self-sabotage opportunities that were meant for me, and I simply refuse to do that anymore. And I won’t let you sabotage your incredible potential, either.

Now, the thing to remember about chasing dreams is - the crucial importance of self-care and self-regulation, which no one likes to talk about because it can feel boring. It can feel like a losing position, and it can feel out-dated and gender-specific. YOU MUST POUR LOVE IN to where you’re not feeling it.

Booking a facial, or a crystal healing can be a really brave new thing. Choosing yourself can be difficult, and I know this. But why not just try a facial, and you’ll realise it’s a whole lot more than whipped cucumber yoghurt smeared onto your face, like in the films from the 80s… although that can also be rather lovely.

This is why I’ve trained in lots of lovely modalities, things that allow for true relaxation and ease from a busy mind. Things that can remind you of your pure magic, and that of the world around you. When you can master the art of rest and relaxation, you can truly start to meet yourself, to understand yourself - and be your true self.

If anything here resonates, and you’re curious to explore what lies beyond the familiar - out in the wild - I’d be honoured to support you.


My Approach

Honestly? I’d rather not do this. I’d rather not take up the authority role. I don’t want to be your Guru. What began as a passion project, helping ex-boyfriend’s and pals out of the dumps has evolved into something more .

What I absolutely am called to do, is to make the world a better place and help people to feel incredible about themselves, safe and in friendship with their bodies, empowered by their stories and driven towards their passions and goals - however weirdly niche and wonderful they may be.

I won’t let you play small, or be dishonest. I will sometimes have you making funny noises, or pounding fists on a pillow, if that’s what we have agreed that you might need within a session. And I won’t make you do it alone, I will be star jumping beside you, and howling, and shaking it off. I’ll be all elbows in your shoulders and up in your fascia, and I’ll maybe have deceased Aunty Pat for you on the line, too - because I practice psychic-mediumship. I don’t care if it’s reading weird. Life is weird, and life can be unjust, unfair and cruel. So why not meditate with crystals or dance with Spirit? What have you really got to lose? And I promise you, if you don’t like something we simply won’t do it again - but guess what? It hasn’t happened yet.

To conclude, if we can manage our feelings, speak with honesty, slow ourselves down and heal ourselves from whatever we are running from - then our life becomes sacred, and we can organise ourselves in a place rooted in love, safety and compassion. The world we live in demands us to be our best - now, more than ever.

Take the leap into the wild with me, and join so many before you.

You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
