Lorraine Headshot

I am Lorraine, wife, mother and grandmother, leader, speaker, teacher, advocate and author.

I am passionate about empowering people to Arise and Flow (Awake to Resilience, Integrity, Synergy and Engagement in order to Flourish with Love, Optimism and Wisdom) for healing, restoration and creative, compassionate transformation into who they are meant to be and to live with authenticity, courage and purpose.

I am a qualified and experienced teacher with expertise in Special Educational Needs. I am a qualified Practitioner and Assessor in Emotional Intelligence. I have a wealth of expertise and experience in Non-Violent Communication, Neuroscience, Resilience, Spiritual Connection, Leadership Development and Mindful Self-Compassion.

I have been married to Tim for 33 years and am a mother of 5 and grandmother to 3 (so far!). I use my skills, experience and insight from my many years as a Science teacher and specialist neurodiversity teacher to:

* create social, emotional and spiritual well-being resources
* deliver training and coaching to individuals and families
* supply training and support to educational, business and faith-based organisations

Arise and Flow was born out of my passion to share with others the transformational journey I have been on. I have journeyed from the Fog of disconnection with myself, those I love the most and others around me, to the Flow of Flourishing with Love, Optimism and Wisdom. I have increased self-awareness, self-trust and self-compassion and am enjoying deeper connections, more choice for using my emotional wisdom and greater clarity of my life’s purpose. Investing my time, skill and wisdom, I am committed to building a legacy which will continue in the lives of the people who are being positively impacted by Arise and Flow.

Creative, Compassionate Transformation

What Matters the Most - VALUES

Here at Arise and Flow our vision is to enable people to live life "fully, bravely and beautifully" through creative, compassionate transformation.

Creative - To access our innate and unique creativity, human beings need to be fully interconnected with our bodies, minds, hearts and spirits. Creativity is a vital part of how we express who we are, what matters to us the most and how we courageously live out our passion and purpose.

Compassionate - To live life with compassion is to embrace ourselves and others with empathy, kindness and the motivation to take action for beneficial outcomes. Foundational to this is celebrating and honouring each other through our commitment to implementing the values of diversity, equity and inclusion.

Transformation - Everything we offer at Arise and Flow is designed to be a powerful catalyst for your own wellbeing and freedom. Just as a caterpillar is transformed into a beautiful butterfly through a natural, life-altering process, you will journey towards being fully connected with your authentic self, your values and your purpose.
