ABOUT OUR PRACTITIONERS: Katherine, Stewart and Brigid
KATHERINE ARMITAGE
MLCHOM (Complementary Therapists Association)
Katherine is a qualified, registered &
insured Yoga teacher, homeopath & flower essence prescriber.
She is also a healer/Reiki practitioner and member of the North Devon
Natural Health Organisation
I have been using yoga, homeopathy & natural healing systems for transformation for 20 years. Having been fully dosed with antibiotics as a child and watching my mother die of Cancer when I was 18, I sought to find some answers to my questions about life and started on my healing journey. When my son was born in France 1987 I discovered homeopathy and I've been using it ever since. I teach homeopathy for the Lakeland College in London.
I was brought up in a beautiful old water Mill and I have always been inspired by the natural world and how it can help us heal. It is also a major reason for setting up a healing centre in an area of outstanding natural beauty on the north devon coast. I like getting groups of diverse people together, hearing their stories and learning from them and having fun. Other interests include, playing tennis, walking by the sea and making hearty vegetarian soups and salads. I am a trained Sivananda Yoga teacher and a follower of many great yogis including The Master Babiji, Sivananda, Yogananda and my own spiritual teacher George King.
I work with all kinds of health issues ranging from insomnia to arthritis, from depression to diabetes. I enjoy working with adults, babies, children & elderly people. I do follow up telephone consultations to give people extra support through challenging times and to prescribe for acute illnesses.
STEWART JOHNSTON

Transcendental Meditation and I have been practising since then.
Inbetween times I have raised a family and worked as an aircraft
engineer, all the while continuing my spiritual quest to explore the
frontiers of metaphysics and avenues to improve my health and other peoples . I am an active student of
Yoga and healer.

guests informed on a range of subjects from natural cures for prostate

Brigid Hurley MA
Brigid
trained in Environmental Studies and Whole Systems Design (
Whole systems design is discerning the hub of a wheel
that connects different spokes which represent disparate or component elements
of, for example, a family, a community, or a large corporation, so that the
‘whole’ can work better and more efficiently.
Whole systems design can be applied to the smallest family or to the
largest country, from a small storage closet to an oil refinery. Brigid’s experience as a whole systems
designer has been mainly working with community and environmental projects and
in the field of education.
Brigid
focuses on the relationship between community and environment as it pertains to
Human Ecology – the wider association we have with the planet that expresses
and hopefully promotes environmental and cultural survival – right down to the
function people have to ‘place’, as it relates to daily existence in our homes
and the workplace. Her Celtic Metaphysical
workshops at Cranleigh House bring all these various components together.
In
courses she has developed over the years, Brigid has joined aspects of history
with those of Ecology, promoting cultural and environmental sustainability
wherever possible. In TUATHA: The
People, a communication and community development course she taught at the
University of Washington’s Experimental College, she used the model of a 16th
century wool producing Irish village to bring zoologists, engineers, university
fundraisers, midwives, other professionals and students together to create
community and learn about the value each individual can have in designing a
communication process.
Brigid loves the natural world especially plants
and animals. Brigid says, “Nature has
always been our teacher; cultures embraced similar cosmologies, myths and
archetypes that were significant to them even though they evolved from very
different ecosystems, from temperate forests, deserts or at the edge of the
sea. Oral traditions speak of the
phenomenal aspects of the spirits in the environment; dryads in the forest or
the Jinni of the desert”. She is
fascinated by the sacredness of place defined by each culture as it evolves
from within its own specific environment, with its own characteristics and
ecology having its own biological peculiarities and particular foods. She is
also great at space clearing and teaches courses in ‘Voluntary Simplicity’ to
help you to keep your everyday or sacred space clutter free!
Brigid is also a chef and housekeeper
extraordinaire and her positive influence can be experienced in the smooth
running of the daily life and organisation of Cranleigh House and enjoyed at
mealtimes, in the kitchen, in funny and interesting conversations.
She helps to bring all the diverse elements
of Cranleigh House together, using her skills as a whole systems designer to
keep all the horses running well as a team.
Katherine,
Stewart and Brigid met while attending a Practitioner course in Body
Electronics – www.bodyelectronics.co.uk -which includes sustained acupressure point
holding and other related naturopathic therapies that align body mind and
spirit.
