The Holistic Entrepreneur
I’m Carly Penfold and I have been a holistic practitioner for over 12 years. I founded the Holistic Market & Psychic Fair in 2015 and have held over 40 live events supporting the holistic community, and created an Online Summit which featured Expert Panelists addressing health and wellness topics, healing circles, and collective readings. I find the effectiveness of healing and self-care is optimized when both the physical AND energetic bodies are supported.
A pivotal moment on my holistic journey happened when my daughter was 6 months old and had an allergic reaction to cottage cheese. She broke out in hives and was crying in pain. My worst fear was that she’d stop breathing as her throat swelled up. Once she recovered, further testing revealed an anaphylactic allergy to dairy and eggs. Since 2001 I’ve been reading labels on EVERYTHING!
In search of remedies and support for my family’s health, I have explored multiple healing modalities and even went back to school to become a Shiatsu and Reiki practitioner. In my practice I discovered the healing benefits were greatly enhanced when essential oils were added to the sessions.
A Young Living Essential Oils distributor, I enjoy sharing my love of all-natural and toxin-free products for personal and home use.
On the faculty of the Metaphysical School, I have developed a video series of 'Acupressure & Oils for Common Ailments' in which you will learn about the dynamic rivers of energy flowing within us and the essential oils that support them. You will discover how to balance meridian points for self-healing and naturally relieve stress, tension and pain.
Recently I would like to invite YOU to a 'Pain Relief Breakthrough' session to provide easy-to-use tips for pain relief with acupressure! I'll share what I've learned over 30 years in business so that you can cut right to what matters and receive the help you need. Book your complimentary session for tips on how to relieve pain naturally (and see if it's a good fit to work together further). Available by video. $120 value.
