Alison Pollard
Alison has spent the last four decades supporting the wellbeing of both children and adults through therapeutic and holistic practices. Her work draws on a range of modalities including Yoga teaching, Angelic Reiki, Hypnotherapy/NLP and other complementary therapies, all of which support emotional, energetic and spiritual balance.
Throughout her journey, Alison has developed a deep love and appreciation for the energy and language of crystals. Working with them has helped her to better understand and compassionately challenge her own patterns of thinking and to live with greater awareness. Over time, this connection has naturally woven itself into her work with others, where crystals offer gentle yet profound support for reflection, healing and personal growth.
Alison trained as a Crystal Therapist through BACH, an experience that further deepened her relationship with the crystal kingdom and supported her ever-evolving spiritual path.
She remains in constant awe of the wisdom held within Mother Earth’s crystals and feels deeply honoured to share their beauty, energy and teachings with others.
