Meet me

Hey!
I'm soo glad
you're here

Let me introduce myself...

Who I Am
& What I Love

I’m Hoppi. I’m a mother of three, a healer, a ceremonialist and a lover of all things creative and natural.

I adore birdsong, flowers and pollinators.

Honestly, I adore life…

My work is helping people come home to themselves, to their creativity, to Nature and to their own joy.

What I Do
& Where I Live

I live off grid in west wales amidst the most beautiful, wild nature in a consciously cultivated abundant landscape.

I teach, inspire and lead people to connect ever deeper with a direct experience of the Sacred within. In this natural beauty, I help people heal, I help people return to wholeness, and I help people embody deep connections with their own true Nature.

But I want you to know ...I didn’t arrive here with it all figured out…

So how did I come to live in this pioneering Ecovillage... and what journey led me to guide people to powerfully transform, inside and out…

?

...want to know the whole story?    then read on...

My earliest memory as a Child

was a deep knowing that I was here for some big purpose... I've always had this sense...  but it always felt just out of reach. My childhood was rocky, and my parents did the best they could.

My Mama taught me

the true meaning of Mother Love... and inadvertently helped me grasp the love Mother Nature has for humanity. How our Earth Mother is the solid ground which never falters and always provides to the best of her ability... the nature of provision may change, may ebb and flow, but the unconditional provision of "Mother" is constant - whether from my own mum or Mother Nature...

Finding my creativity & working in Nature

I worked in all sorts of jobs after school. At 25, I studied Ceramics and Sculpture, and something fundamental woke within me.

Simply expressing my feelings through creativity began to really heal me.

Later, as I connected more deeply with Nature, I became a Forest School leader and trainer. This is when I noticed that children were naturally creative and free; it was the adults who needed help to reconnect.

 

 

 

This awoke my hunger to learn ...                               

I trained in Integrative Arts Psychotherapy, in Cellular Healing, NLP, Emotional Intelligence and every healing modality I could get my hands on...

I developed my shamanic practice and created my own training company delivering creative Emotional Intelligence working all over the UK with teachers, social workers, police, fire service and professionals working with kids and teens.

I worked with 20 different nations in a European Parenting project in 11 European cities and became a leader in my field.

 

I sensed I was on track with my real purpose... but then Life took me in an unexpected direction....

I followed my beautiful Life Partner, Tao

to Pembrokeshire. I left everything I knew behind to live in the Wild West carving out a brand new natural life. I opened myself to living off grid, growing food, dealing with our own waste and building our own house with the resources we found in our immediate locality.

In the early days it was tough...

really tough.. No internet for two years, no running water, we washed in metal buckets heated over a fire and life became very elemental for a time.

My beautiful children were happy, wild and free, but honestly, I was reeling. Our planning permission required that we had to develop a landbased business and I really struggled to find my niche...

I loved healing herbs and flowers

so I started a little cut flower business and discovered that bees often sleep inside flowers all curled up through the night.

Later I developed an organic herbal business, Lammas Medicinals. I made Tinctures & Healing Salves and studied the healing properties of plants... I loved the healing parts of it, but I still felt far from my soul’s purpose.

Eventually I reached a crux point where I just couldn't continue living out of alignment with my heart. I found myself going off to India for some deep soul-searching. Whilst there, I gave my life to God, to the Great Mystery, to Life.

I went to one of the holiest places on Earth...

home to numerous Indian sages and saints and I experienced an ego death like no other... All other ego deaths in my life had been blissful, but this was just dead silence... no movement anywhere. I was told on that holy mountain, in no uncertain terms... get back to Lammas and start living from your heart, you are exactly where you are meant to be!

My life turned upside down and inside out

That return year was the most intense and terrifying process I've ever experienced. I had no clue who I was, and had no ability to navigate from my mind. All my usual plans and schemes just disintegrated and so much of the life I had built began to crumble and fall away.

Out of the ashes, I listened deeply to what my heart and soul was being called to. I was drawn to journeying inwardly to deeply heal and align. I was drawn to making sound and singing mantras. I was drawn to work even deeper with Nature and Creation for profound transformation. They were the only things that made any sense and kept me sane and safe. I very gently began to make shamanic drums after being invited by the principle drum maker in the UK. I began to train in Sound Healing and discovered the tremendous power of journeying with Sacred Sound. I was guided by life to re-ignite my connection with medicinal plants, herbs, trees, animals, minerals, aroma and Life began to talk with me in profound ways through the Stillness. I recognised how inner and outer Nature are ONE... Peace inside, Peace outside... there is no separation.

 I asked myself possibly the most important question of all...

What am I here to create, to ignite, to bring? what is my Purpose here on Earth? This enquiry gave rise to the creation of The Lammas Earth Centre as a beacon for transformation and healing.

I continued to connect deeper with Nature and Source... simply listening internally, externally for the next step. My healing mission resulted in developing The School of Natural Shamanism and grounding a number of practitioner trainings; Sound Healer Practitioner Training, Natural Shamanism Practitioner Training, Medicine Woman Apprenticeship and Somatic Drum Practitioner Training. I recognised the need for high calibre healers in the world to support the enormous shifts we are going through as a humanity in these tumultuous times.

I developed beginner programs to support people in connecting with the Elements, and with Natural Shamanism for personal spirituality, and developing connection with the drum, this ancient tool for healing and celebration.

I feel deeply humbled that I live this sacred life in Service to supporting this grand awakening. Nature is the teacher. May we all come back into Sacred Relationship with all that is once more.
