Nurturing

This is about taking a clear look at your attitude to self nurturing and looking after yourself, including general appearance, hair, make-up, (for women) and on a deeper level your attitude to yourself and your body. Other factors to be considered are your attitude to food and your general overall lifestyle including stress. What you do for fun and just the pleasure of it, holidays or learning something new.

Support Offered
Self-esteem sessions will be offered to balance and improve the relationship between the client and their body, as well as an exploration into mind attitudes to nurturing the body image. Additionally, clothes shopping support will be available, with advice on styles and colours, hair and also make-up consultations for women. Charaka is trained as a beauty therapist and taught in this field in her twenties. She would offer to provide you with advice on your current wardrobe, with what items work well together, what needs to be gotten rid of and what is missing, helping to complete your wardrobe. This section could be fun even for the person who hates to shop. All steps are made at the individuals’ own pace.

“Your body is your temple to worship”

Personal Story  -  De-Clogging

As a creative person designing and making clothes for my work I was surprised by my lack of connection to my own femininity.

Charaka helped me to transform from my layered clothes that hid my body and clogs that did not flatter me into a woman. I felt she showed me a way of being that I longed for. She gave me full permission, encouragement and practical ideas to open the doors to forbidden/unknown areas like shoes with heels, clothes that flattered my body, handbags, beautiful sensual clothes that I had never even considered. She gave me an opportunity to taste my womanhood in all its many flavours.

I can't express how this seemingly simple shopping experience transformed my life and the experience of myself.

This opened whole new vistas of pleasure, fun, frivolity and enjoyment of myself. I had got stuck in a way of being and Charaka helped show me other aspects within me. She helped open me to who I really am with so much generosity of heart and understanding, caring and humour. I am so deeply grateful. My life is richer for this priceless gift. Thank you.
