Life as a Spiral...
|
Born on the magical isle of Jersey, U.K., Sarah Spiral’s journey through life has taken her far and wide, driven always by the unquenchable thirst for Truth, Discovery, Laughter and Adventure.
Her life is a rich tapestry of experiences, for which she is truly grateful...

A year in South America at the ago of 20 opened up a world filled with awe and wonder and a life-changing experience as a Volunteer Teacher at a centre for street children in Quito, Ecuador (Centro del Muchacho Trabajador) instilled a lifelong passion for peoples’ stories, firmly planting deep within her soul a belief in the transformational power of love and sharing.
The love affair with South America continued throughout her 20s and shortly after graduating from university she found herself back in Brazil teaching and training local staff as Academic Co-ordinator in a chain of private English schools – an experience that would strengthen her fascination in people, group dynamics and the power of working towards a collective aim.
A growing interest in Yoga, Transcendental Meditation™ and Natural Therapies led Sarah back to Europe where she initiated her training as a Holistic Therapist and immersed herself in the fascinating world of healing and bodywork.
Initial training in Reflexology, Indian Head Massage and Aromatherapy was to open a path of energy work and training through to Master level in Usui Reiki and Karuna Reiki, followed shortly by further training in Brazil with Joel Aleixo (creator of LABORCIV Brazilian Flower Remedies) to become the first U.K. LABORCIV practitioner.
In 2003, Sarah returned to Jersey to bring together all her skills in the creation of The Spiral Tree and her first Holistic Centre in the town of St Helier opened its doors, offering a unique blend of Therapies, Courses and Yogabugs classes for children.
A deepening practice in meditation and inner journeywork led her to develop further courses and events and create a series of Meditation & Relaxation programmes for both private and corporate groups. A series of Retreats in France and Personal Development workshops soon followed, with visiting facilitators travelling to Jersey to host events through The Spiral Tree.
A sanctuary and haven for all ages, The Spiral Tree soon outgrew its town premises and in 2005 expanded into a beautiful farmhouse, hidden away in the Jersey countryside. The launch of a series of celebratory events, including a Charity Breakfast for International Women’s Day and an annual Christmas Celebration drew networks of people to The Spiral Tree and helped shape a wonderful community of like-minded souls.
In 2006 Sarah travelled to the US to train with international teacher Denise Linn to become the first certified Soul Coach and Past Life Regression Coach in the Channel Islands and her coaching programmes have been transforming lives ever since.
Her most recent work has included Meditation & Relaxation training for the staff and pupils of Jersey schools and the training and development of a 6 week Empowerment Programme for the Jersey Women’s Refuge.
Sarah has had the privilege of training with some incredible teachers and masters along her journey. Her fascination with people, sharing and growth continues to inspire her work and her travels and in 2008 she is spiralling her way from India to Canada & the US in search of new adventures.
The journey continues...
