Creativity is all about approaching an old idea from a new angle. As Einstein said, “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking that created them.”
Truly creative process is HOLISTIC, and occurs when you fully embrace the connections between mind, body, and soul. This allows you to look at your body from a new perspective, and develop a new relationship with it.
This leads to deeper, long-lasting change and healing.
I had body image issues from a young age.
Although I was never anorexic, I did have seriously bad eating habits. Over the years, I reached a point of healing my relationship with my body and accepting it. Only to then suffer major health issues — including cancer and colon problems. These severely impacted both my physical appearance and functioning, and my feelings about my body.
My creative process, each time, helped me to understand what had changed for me, and to see things from my new perspective. Then I could embrace those changes, physical and emotional, and build a new, positive relationship with my body.
I analysed what I had intuitively done with myself, and developed this into a 9-step creative process. I have used this process successfully to help others rethink and regenerate their lives, leading to deeper healing and new hope.
I can take your through the process so that you, too, can heal and step into a new way of living your life.
Often we believe that creativity belongs to other people…It has woken me up. Creativity is what is inside.

The workshop that Leda led was brilliant. It made me realise my worth and how important it is to take time out of our busy lives to reflect on our blessings.
