about mybodo & me

Hello and welcome!
My name is Nishani, and I offer an integrative approach to well-being that honours the deep connection between mind, body, and spirit.

 

'mybodo', as an approach, grew out of my own journey through chronic illness and self-healing, with the realisation that self-exploration and awareness helps to build resilience and balance. In this approach, my role is to support and, sometimes, guide you but not to claim any greater insight or power on you. 

​

Drawing from both personal experience and professional training, I instigate and support explorations in self-mastery, living with greater vitality and purpose  - as well as exploring deeper, more spiritual connections.

​

Compassionate, non-judgemental support is at the heart of all I offer. ​The individual 1:1 sessions (in-person or online) support you as a 'whole' - made up of physical, psychological, social, cultural, environmental, energetic and spiritual dimensions. You can use this time to help yourself self-heal, change your energy, talk, move, instigate and nourish your own route to self-mastery. Each session will be different because we are in a permanent state of movement and sometimes, being dogmatic about what method or form is not always the most helpful. 

 

To give you an idea, here are some of the tools I regularly use:​

  • Massage & touch therapies (Renato Pappalardo School for Energy Balancing)

  • Mind-Body Stress Reduction (MBSR)

  • Conscious Movement  (a fusion of movement practices to help get to know yourself better)

  • Vibrational Healing Touch

  • Guided visualisation & meditations (a wide range of applications depending on need)

  • Energy Healing (inspired by Essenian methods combined with my own intuitive healing)

​​

Influences include pioneers like Dr. John Sarno, my extensive arts background in photography, dance and performance (which started at a very young age), and more recently a long-term collaboration with Renato Pappalardo (author, consultant and pioneer of energy balancing massage and therapy in France).

​​

Recent Events & Projects:

  • 2022: Introduced the mybodo approach to a leading physiotherapy and rehabilitation center in Iceland’s Westfjords, focusing on chronic pain, stress, burnout, and trauma.

  • 2023: Collaborated with choreographer Léa Leclerc on Like Me 2, an inter-generational movement performance, and co-facilitated movement workshops.

  • 2024: Completed a short film titled DIVAS.

  • Ongoing workshops with Margaret Pikes, (author, performer and voice trainer in the Wolfsohn-Hart tradition of extended voice work) 

​

I'm bilingual and an advocate for the choice and affordable access to CAM/TCIH therapies within our healthcare systems because health is not a one size fits all system.
