Testimonials

"I arrived exhausted and left remembering parts of myself that had been silent for years. Connection is clearly one of the best remedies for healing."

"Thank you Nicola for offering us such a rich and open hearted day. Arriving in the morning my nerves were almost unimaginable, not knowing anyone there, but by the end of the day I felt so grounded and connected to community. All my swirling thoughts of life seemed to have met like minded people and I was able to feel a wholeness I haven't experienced for a very long time. I can attest to the power of the day given I'm writing this two months after the event and still feeling connected to something bigger than myself. Thank you for your dedication and devotion to the art of connecting people."

"I was lucky enough to spend a very special and deeply personal day at Spark, led by Nicola Lester, who is so talented and experienced over such a broad range of teachings and natural therapies. More than anything, Nicola has a rare and unique energy that touches all who know her and she quite literally shines from within. Always loving, giving to others and having the ability to guide and bring people together, we couldn't have been in better hands to experience a day full of sharing, feeling and examining our current paths in life and the direction we wanted to take. It's quite amazing to start the day with other people you know nothing about, and yet, by the end of the day, you have shared your vulnerabilities, joys, worries, griefs, sorrows, successes and happinesses with them, and you feel you have formed a real bond together. It's a very safe and nurturing environment to give thought and discussion to what is happening in your own life, thinking about where you might be getting stuck, or if you might need to change direction, or open up new opportunities — and with these new friends, they help you to see and feel things more clearly."

"I attended the SPARK rite of passage workshop at the beautiful Ballam Ballam building and was blown away by what can happen in a day with a group of open hearted people, guided by the thoughtful and insightful Nicola Lester. Nicola managed to hold the space with such generosity and kindness it was impossible not to feel fully immersed in the topics we were exploring. It was transformative and I loved it. I can't believe how much I felt like I'd 'gone through something', with wonderful women, who I felt very close to by the end. Thank you Nicola."

"I've been going to treatments with Nicola for several years and they have been so valuable to me. Each treatment is such a peaceful and relaxing experience, always tailored to address any concerns I have at the time. Nicola has helped me greatly in many areas of my life. In particular, her treatments have subtly guided me to my purpose in life, and I now find myself loving the work I do, surrounded by like-minded people. It's truly amazing how much my life situation has changed since starting treatments with Nicola, and I am extremely grateful to her for that."

"My heart sings when I get to visit Nicola. Her wholistic approach is the only practice that has helped my mind, body and spirit. The intense shoulder pain and mind fog I've experienced for years disappeared after a couple of sessions. I continue to be amazed at how Nicola is able to balance my emotions, I leave my session feeling big shifts of energy. The feeling of full body calm is a welcomed “new” to me — it's like I catch her happy, positive vibes. Nicola very kindly provided me with a personalised Qi Gong routine that saved me during lockdown, it's the only thing that helps my anxiety when it visits — kinda like a practical toolkit for life."
