About Us
Anita Murray - Reiki Healer and Teacher
https://www.facebook.com/Anita.Murray.UK
Following the diagnosis of my father with multiple sclerosis (MS), an illness with no known cause or cure, I became interested in alternative therapies . I witnessed my father trying spiritual healing and even visiting Lourdes, whilst still a small child myself. My family often mentioned an awareness of deceased relatives being around and I was fascinated by the books by Doris Stokes, exploring and explaining psychic methods to look into the past.
Reiki
I first got introduced to Reiki whilst completing my final year at University, having struggled to sleep for several weeks, due to exam pressure. My friend had just been initiated and offered me a session, despite the whale noise CD I managed to relax and slept the whole of that night. I had often been told by palm readers and tarot readers that I was a healer, but didn't know how to "activate" this healing ability so I wondered if Reiki would work for me.
I decided to go for a Reiki attunement, as it was explained that my crown centre would open to universal life force energy to flow through my crown to my hands. I knew nothing at the time about chakras, meridians, subtle energy bodies, but it felt like the right timing.
In 1999 I received my first - master level attunements, following which I initiated my sister, brother and cousin. I joined Reiki share groups and attended several mind body and spirit exhibitions and helped out on the Reiki stands. I had studied further levels and had attunements from other Reiki Masters and in 2007 I was attuned to Karuna Grecian Reiki with Allan Sweeney and to Reyad Sekh Em with Joanna Bristow-Watkins in Egypt in 2008 and at the moment I am studying Angelic Reiki with Jacqueline Mary Piper..
Metamorphic Technique
In 2001 I learned the Metamorphic Technique, following the recommendation from my mum and a 20 minute taster session at an exhibition. I learnt directly from Gaston Saint Pierre, who developed the technique and in Summer 2008 I completed the Teacher training.
Inner Peace Movement (IPM)
In January 2008 I met Melissa Kitto, who was running a lecture and workshop associated with the Inner Peace movement program. I learnt that we are all psychic and have an order to our spiritual gifts, mine is Feeling, Vision, Intuition and Prophecy. Founded by Francisco Coll, he developed many techniques to expand our awareness and inner guidance so I joined a development group. I have since had training and now I run introductory lectures, groups and can give profiles.
Heart Intelligence
In 2009 I met Christian Pankhurst and attended many retreats and learnt how to run heart Intelligence events and I became a supervisor in 2011 and trained other coaches online and in person. I now run heart intelligence events in Preston and London and offer vision building coaching online or in person.
Heart Circles
I met Tej Steiner in 2012 and studied Heart Circles with him in
2015 and now incorporate his teachings into my coaching work
Art of Feminine Presence
I met Racheal Jayne Groover at a Heart IQ Heart Summit, back in 2012 and became a Level 1 Art of Feminine Presence teacher in 2014.
Card readings
I have been interested in oracle cards since 2005 when I bought my first deck. I have studied with Doreen Virtue at the 2012 You can do it conference and have been doing readings every since. I use a mixture of cards from Doreen Virtues own cards but also Angela McGerr and Diana Cooper to name just a few.
Bipolar Disorder Groups
I became a facilitator in 2017 and we meet in Preston, every two weeks
Laura Marie Heald - Sports Masseuse

Amy Rizza - Qualified Personal Trainer
I have been in the industry for 7 years now, starting off as a fitness coach I went on to be a group exercise instructor teaching classes like circuits, spinning, GRIT and legs, bum and tums. I love the buzz of a class but decided that I could help people more by doing 1-1 coaching. I have been a Personal Trainer for 3 years now (and Anita's personal trainer for over two years) and I love it. I have been given the opportunity to work with so many people from ages 8 to 78!
My qualifications are below
Level 3 Personal Trainer
Level 4 Pro-Fit Trainer
Precision Nutrition
Sleep Specialist
CBT Coaching
Tony Robbins Unleash The Power Within
Group Exercise Instructor
Bobby Ellison - Psychotherapist
BACP Accredited person centered psychotherapist. Qualified in 2015
Worked in a drug and alcohol centre offering one to one therapy and group therapy.
I volunteer on a website called 7cups, it offers support to people who are experiencing all sorts of difficulties. From relationship problems to suicidal intent. Some times it's just to help someone having a panic attack. My reviews can be seen here https://www.7cups.com/@TrebesDisease
I have probably spent over 1000 hours on 7cups helping people. Someone opening up their worst mental torments and then being able to offer someone support when they really need it, is an honor I don't take lightly.
