Hello, I am Carine
Born in France, I moved to Sydney Northern Beaches about 20 years ago, working in the corporate and public sector. In the recent years, I had the opportunity to develop Wellbeing, Inclusion and Diversity initiatives in the workplace. This opened my eyes to the stress and struggles that our modern life can throw at people from all directions: work stress, burnout, conflicts in relationships, community or lack of belonging, lack of motivation or purpose, feeling stuck, mental or physical health issues, and the impact of natural disasters.
​
I have also been practicing Yoga for over 20 years, and teaching Yoga and meditation for about 5 years now, in local yoga studios in the Sydney Northern Beaches. In 2020, I opened The Beacon Hill Sanctuary, and over time, added other forms of therapies, such as Yoga Therapy, EFT Tapping, Reiki, and Donna Eden Energy Medicine.
Now my mission is to support you and share the tools and techniques that I have been very fortunate to learn from masters, and integrate into my own practice.

My story
Born on French Reunion Island, I came to Australia 20 years ago, lived a rather comfortable life. And yet, something was missing ...
Six years ago, it all spiralled down. I found myself at the peak of recurring states of depression, anger, feeling stuck into old patterns and overreacting to daily stuff, strangled relationships, overall life dissatisfaction and lack of purpose. This impacted me physically with lower back pain, digestion issues, insomnia, cold hands and feet, and regular colds and flus.
And this is when I decided that enough was enough. Was I going through some sort of midlife crisis? yes I believe so.
This is when I turned to yoga and meditation then Yoga therapy, energy healing, and Reiki, as ways to raise my own self-awareness, learn tools to restore balance in my body and mind, and keep evolving.
I will be forever grateful for the masters and teachers who have taught me that there is a way towards inner peace and harmony.
​
Today, at 45 years old, I can say I haven't been sick for years, and I feel physically, emotionally and mentally resilient. My sleep patterns, digestion and blood circulation have improved significantly.
I experience a deeper sense of calm and peace most of the time, a deeper sense of Love, a connection to a greater purpose, to Mother Earth, Nature and its laws.
Today, I feel in control and in the flow. I have tools to help me get back on track when I need it. I continue to learn from teachers and masters. Most importantly,
I learnt that things get sorted more easily and quickly with a bit of help and guidance from those who've walked the path before me. I now have a support network, people in my corner.
​
Now one of my goals is to be in your corner, and support you where I can.


My philosophy
Yes, we can all cope with life stressors and still feel okay, surviving another day.
​
But how about feeling great, awesome or sensational? because we deserve optimum health, to let go all emotional burden, so we can give back to others, our loved ones and our community with all our focus, strength, love and creativity.
There is no better time than now to change direction and optimise your health.
With the Beacon Hill Sanctuary, I make it my mission to give back and share with you the knowledge and experience I have gained over the past 10 years, and support you on your journey of self-discovery and self-healing, so you, too, may also experience profound changes.
​
We can heal on many levels, knowing that all the work we do is interrelated:
​
-
Yoga can help you find out exactly what the imbalances are in the body and energy channels, for specific conditions, and take control of your health with specific yoga postures to restore balance, as well as suggested meditations, lifestyle and nutrition changes.
-
EFT Tapping helps remove blocks at an emotional levels, that stuff we carry from distressing events, limiting beliefs, stress, pain. This is an essential part of the work, for anyone who would like to achieve greater balance on a physical, emotional and mental levels.
-
Reiki works directly at a energy level, channeling the universal energies into your body and restoring the body's innate ability to heal, leaving you feeling profoundly relaxed.
​
To me, those three ancient techniques complement each other extraordinary well, and will help you release physical, emotional or mental stress, so you can start living a peaceful, loving and fulfilling life.
​
This is my wish for you. And I would be honoured to support you in your own and unique journey.
