about me
Christine Martin
I live in Uckfield, East Sussex with my husband and our 2 beloved rescue dogs, who are always keen for our daily walks. With my children grown and carving their own journeys in the world, I find myself in a new chapter of life that feels quieter but also full of meaning and purpose.
Like many women I’ve journeyed through my fair share of life’s challenges – relationship endings, health challenges, the bittersweet rites of children leaving home, the shadows of depression, and the ups and downs of self-employment. More recently, I’ve stepped into a deeper caregiving role, supporting my husband as he lives with heart failure and serious sight loss.
These experiences have shaped me, brought about a gentle wisdom. Through it all nature has been my sanctuary, turning to Essential Oils and Flower Essences as allies in times of both stress and calm. Reiki has been my daily devotion, a quiet balm in times of crisis – especially in hospital corridors and uncertain hours, keeping me centred, softened, and strong.
During my training as an Advanced Flower Essence practitioner, I learnt the art of dowsing, – using a pendulum to tap into intuitive insight. It quickly became a trusted tool in my everyday life, especially for selecting the right Essences and Essential Oils for myself and my clients. It reinforces my knowledge of these modalities. I found it so empowering and effective that I’ve gone on to deepen my skills, and now offer simple, supportive workshops to help others learn this simple technique for themselves.
Over the last few years, I’ve also become more aware of how natural rhythms – the seasons, the moon, and even our own energy cycles – can affect how we feel. Tuning into these rhythms has brought a new sense of balance to my life, and it’s something I love gently weaving into my work with others.
As I step into my next chapter, I am releasing massage from my offerings- I am honoured to have worked with so many lovely clients for nearly three decades.
During this time, I have witnessed the power of this work to soften pain, ease movement, invite deeper sleep, and gently dissolve layers of stress. It has been an honour to walk this path and to serve in this way.
Now my focus is turning more fully toward the vibrational realms – Reiki and Flower Essences- modalities that have profoundly transformed my own life and continue to do so. These are not simply treatments. They are invitations into stillness, into remembrance and into the healing within each and every one of us.
about soul haven
I’m a Reiki practitioner and teacher, a Flower Essence guide, and someone who understands what it means to give deeply of yourself, especially when caring for others. This work was born from my own journey of healing and holding, and from witnessing how often those who care for others – be it family, friends, or clients – place their own wellbeing last. My mission is to gently shift that, one person at a time.
Here, you’ll find a calm, supportive space where you can receive healing, learn to work with energy, and reconnect with your own inner balance. Whether you’re looking for nurturing treatments, empowering training, or natural remedies to support emotional wellbeing, everything I offer is designed to bring you back to yourself. I believe healing isn’t about fixing – it’s about remembering.
Who you are.
What you need.
And how powerful it is to choose yourself again.
If you’re seeking rest, renewal, or a deeper way to support others without losing yourself in the process - you’re in the right place.
