The Story

Over a decade ago, I was diagnosed with both PTSD and PMDD, at the time, these words felt heavy, confusing and extremely hard to accept.

In truth, their roots had been growing for much longer than 10 years, due to the echoes of deep, unresolved trauma, quietly shaping the world beneath my surface...

At the time of diagnosis, I had hit rock bottom, waking up each day became a chore and getting through that day felt like climbing the worlds toughest mountain...

Looking back, that metaphorical mountain was the beginning of my healing journey, one that would stretch across years and layers, and one that would venture me through forgiveness, tears, stillness and profound emotional growth...

There were days I broke and days that I rebuilt, but always, one breath and one movement at a time, I moved closer to something that felt like safety and peace.

On my journey yoga found me, movement directed me, strength training protected me, mindfulness anchored me and compassion (for myself and others) softened everything around me...

Moving forwards 10 years...

Today, I live off-grid, content, happy and with both feet firmly planted on the earth, traveling the world and sharing what I have lived, learnt and experienced along the way...

I am now a health and wellness practitioner on an entrepreneurial journey, creating a wellness ripple that touches the hearts and lives of millions of women and teenagers around the world.

I  have created A State of Mind, not as a brand but as a sanctuary to those walking their own physical and emotional journey, supporting them to find...

• The release from no longer serves them
   
• The restoration of inner peace and confidence
   
• A reconnection to their true self, their inner purpose and the world around them
  

I believe that each and every one of us are on our own personal journey and we all have our own emotional mountains to climb, it is how we choose to climb them that determines our future...

I can't wait to walk by the side of all of those whom wish to welcome me on their journey, offering softness,  gentle guidance, compassion and motivation along the way!

With love always, Gina Louise
