I’m Eloise and I’m happy you found me
My Story
Founder of Your Safe Space
Your Safe Space grew from my own journey of overcoming many physical and emotional struggles. Anxiety pushed me to a choice: find a way to feel better, or hit rock bottom.
Today, we begin by training the mind to feel the body. Together we uncover where fear is blocking your ability to feel, so we can reconnect with your own wisdom, intuition and belief in yourself.
I’ve travelled the world to learn how to work through my past, and I’ve seen that every story is connected to another. I believe confidence, health and a positive mindset lead to happiness and fulfilment. The protections and coping mechanisms we build to numb our feelings, often from childhood, are tended to with care, until trust and safety in the body can return.
Where It Began
For years I tried to disconnect from my body. I numbed the pain and escaped through alcohol, drugs, toxic relationships, anything to avoid feelings that were too hard to face. Eventually I questioned whether life was even worth living.
Another perspective
The physical injuries in my body became a catalyst, bringing my attention back to where it needed to be. The emotional stories were woven through them. As I learnt, somatically, to bring mind and body back into connection, something massive began to shift, and I found hope for my life.
I had always believed I was too broken, too messed up. Then, in Bali, a spark of hope ignited. That curiosity helped me unravel and heal pain I had buried for years, and I knew I wanted to share what I’d discovered.
Healing in Honour of My Brother
In 2019 my world was shaken again when my brother, James, tragically took his own life. That loss showed me even more clearly how needed this approach is. I feel him behind me, driving this work forward.
The Bigger Picture
One of the most transformative things I’ve learned is that there is always a bigger picture, a deeper meaning behind the events of our lives. When you step back and see the sequence that brought you here, you can stop being consumed by fear, pain and the endless cycle of seeking approval and validation.
Much of what we’ve been taught, the stories, the labels, the identities, was a way to make sense of the world, and it may not actually be helping us. So we try something different.
When you don’t believe in yourself, insecurity leaves you vulnerable. But we have the power to turn everything we’ve been through into something useful for the world, and in doing so, make it all worthwhile and enjoy life again.
Trust Yourself
One of the most profound lessons has been learning to stop abandoning myself in moments of fear and discomfort. I saw a huge pattern in my own life: allowing others to manipulate and control me. Adapting myself around people I didn’t feel comfortable with was exhausting.
Now I trust my body and listen to its wisdom. I speak up, and I don’t override myself when something doesn’t feel right. I have overcome and applied what I have learnt and teach to literally love my life now and I feel so lucky.
I’m here to share what I’ve learnt with you. If you’re ready to reconnect to your body, uncover the deeper truths of your life, and move forward with more peace and trust, please reach out. Share your story, ask questions, and let’s explore how we can work together.
Life can be so exciting. ✨
