Mairead Moodie

I live by the sea in East Lothian, not far from Edinburgh. In our home is my husband, Simon, and our two boys, plus an abundance of animals! I followed my heart here around 8 years ago, not really knowing why I was uprooting my family and life from the convenience of city life. I fell in love immediately with the old, ruined farmhouse, surrounded by fields on one side and sea on the other. My husband took some convincing - that it was a ‘project’ was a bit of an understatement! But I was convinced we had been called here for a reason and so it became our home.

I work from home as an Ayurvedic Consultant & Therapist, Kundalini Yoga Teacher, Reiki Therapy practitioner and lover of essential oils. I also work with my Crystal Sound Bowls. I weave all these teachings together in my practice and hope to help all the women who come to me to find better health and more peace and joy in their lives. My vision is to build a retreat centre here to bring in-person healing to those who need it. There is a magic in the wild land here which I know will bring deep remembering to those who come to heal.

My journey with Ayurveda began over 20 years ago during a career break from the Corporate world. In truth it was a journey which was driven by bouts of poor health and frustration at never quite getting to the ‘root’ of it all. Having always had a keen interest in yoga, self-care and nutrition I learned that Ayurveda respected our unique constitutions, so began living a very Ayurvedic lifestyle, incorporating Yoga & Meditation into my every day life. Soon I found my way back to health and vibrancy and felt called to share this ancient knowledge, which makes so much sense to those who eventually find it.

I am passionate about teaching the art of seasonal cleansing and run dedicated retreats for this in Scotland, plus group events. I also love gathering in ceremony with women to honour the New and Full Moons and other auspicious times of the year, so please keep an eye on my events page for these gatherings.

I look forward to meeting you, wherever you are on your path.
