​

Heather is a qualified Mountain Leader & soon to be qualified Yoga  Teacher, she blends her lifelong connection with nature with her various healing modalities to create meaningful, heartfelt offerings... Her work takes inspiration from her Celtic roots & invites others to reconnect with themselves & Mother Earth through the wisdom of the mountains... Alongside her guiding practice, Heather is also continues to practice as a consultant lawyer, holding a Law Degree (LLB Hons).

 

Heather has been deeply connected with Mother Earth ever since she can remember, raised in the rolling hills of the Peak District, where the trees, birds, insects and plants all became her friends, she would spend hours alone, or with friends, playing outside, building treehouses, collecting insects or swimming in the river and she would frequently walk the hills with her  (now late) father. Later, Heather’s heart found its true home in the Highlands of Scotland ~ her Motherland ~ where she continues to draw inspiration and grounding from its wild landscape that has shaped her life’s work.

 

Heather is a mountaineer and long-distance hiker, she has now clocked in thousands of miles, on long distance trails alone, where she is always self-sufficient, living simply out of her tent… Some of her achievements include Cape Wrath Trail, Tour Du Mont Blanc, Tahoe Rim Trail, West Highland Way, East Highland Way, Skye Trail, Wainwright’s Coast to Coast, South Downs Way, Great Glen Way, Alder Trail, Affric Kintail Way, Everest Base Camp, Cotswold Way, Cumbria Way, Laugervegur Trail.

 

Through Sacred Mountain Guiding, Heather shares her passion for the mountains & the outdoors and her belief that nature holds the key to healing, presence and belonging….
