Certified Soma Breath Breath Work Coach, Reiki & Access Bars Practitioner helping you reduce stress & anxiety, reset your nervous system, and boost your energy & mood through Reiki, Breathwork, Access Bars, Meditation & Reiki Drumming. ✀ Shift with Sam
Finding calm, balance, and energy from within

I first fell in love with Usui Reiki after personally experiencing the beautiful healing it can bring. During a particularly challenging time in my life β€” navigating the ups and downs of menopause and its endless symptoms β€” Reiki became a source of calm, balance, and renewal. The deep sense of peace I felt inspired me to study further and become a Reiki Practitioner, so I could share this gentle yet powerful energy with others who need it most. Alongside Reiki, I’m also a Certified Soma Breath Instructor, guiding people through rhythmic breathing, movement, and meditation to help them release stress, rebalance hormones, and reconnect with their body’s natural vitality. Both Reiki and breathwork complement each other beautifully β€” one working through energy, the other through breath β€” together creating deep relaxation and transformation from the inside out.

✀ What Is Usui Reiki? Reiki is a traditional Japanese energy healing technique that channels β€œki,” or universal life force energy, through the practitioner’s hands to restore balance and harmony within the body. It supports your natural ability to heal and promotes relaxation on every level β€” physical, emotional, and spiritual.

✀ The Benefits of Reiki

Reduces Stress and Anxiety
Reiki promotes deep relaxation, calming both body and mind. Enhances Emotional Well-Being
By gently clearing energy blockages, Reiki helps release emotional tension and restore a sense of calm and happiness. Supports Natural Healing
Reiki works with the body’s own healing systems to support balance, health, and vitality. Helps with Pain Management
Reiki can ease physical discomfort by reducing muscular and energetic tension. Improves Sleep
Many people sleep more deeply after Reiki, waking up feeling refreshed and restored. Deepens Spiritual Connection
Reiki helps you reconnect with your inner self and promotes peace, clarity, and purpose.

✀ The Power and Benefits of Soma Breath

Combining rhythm, music and visualization help you enter powerful states of relaxation, focus, and alignment. It’s a transformative practice that can shift your energy, physiology, and mindset β€” all through the power of your breath. Balances the Nervous System
Soma breath activates the parasympathetic nervous system, switches on calming the body and reducing stress hormones like cortisol. Boosts Energy and Vitality
By increasing oxygen efficiency and improving circulation, Soma Breath helps you feel more alive, focused, and energised. Improves Mental Clarity and Focus
Regular practice supports concentration and presence, helping you think more clearly and feel more in control. Supports Hormonal Balance
Breathwork helps regulate the body’s internal systems, which can be especially beneficial during menopause or times of change. Enhances Mood and Emotional Resilience
Through rhythmic breathing, cool music and guided visualisation, Soma Breath releases feel-good endorphins, lifting mood and emotional well-being. Improves Sleep and Deep Rest
Sessions often lead to profound relaxation, helping you unwind fully and enjoy deeper, more restorative sleep. Increases Self-Awareness and Connection
Many people experience insights, emotional release, and a greater sense of connection to themselves and their purpose. Together, Reiki and Soma Breath help you shift from stress to stillness β€” restoring balance, peace, and vitality from the inside out. It’s a joy to share these practices through Shift with Sam β€” gently guiding you to find calm, energy, and connection within yourself again. ✀

Whether you’re looking for more calm, more energy, or simply space to breathe, I offer one-to-one sessions and group experiences that meet you where you are. My aim is simple: to give you the space and guidance to shift your energy, your mindset, and your wellbeing. Inspired by the dandelion seed β€” a symbol of release, renewal, and transformation β€” my sessions help you breathe deeply, let go of what no longer serves you, and invite in balance and peace.

I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to read, comment on, share or message me about my post yesterday. ❀️

I honestly didn't expect so much interest, and I've been really touched by the lovely response x

It's moments like this that remind me what a special little community we have here on our Island.
People looking out for one another, showing kindness and supporting each other.

So thank you, each and every one of you. Your kindness, encouragement and support mean more than you probably realise.

This is what makes our little Island so special. ❀️

Wishing you all a marvellous day
Sam xx

Hello, I'm Sam! πŸ‘‹β€οΈ

And welcome to Shift With Sam!

I'm a local Canvey girl with a little wellness studio right here on the Island.

A few years ago, I found myself feeling really low. Low mood, low energy, I'd lost my spark for life, didn't feel like myself anymore and knew something needed to change.

I started getting curious about the nervous system.
I began researching how stress affects us, how our bodies respond to it and the connection between our breathing, our minds and how we feel.

That curiosity led me to breathwork, meditation and a whole new understanding of wellbeing.
And eventually, Shift With Sam was born. ❀️

Outside of the studio, apart from being with my beautiful family & georgous grandchildren you'll often find me walking along our little Island's beach. I love being by the water, getting some fresh air and appreciating what we've got right on our doorstep πŸ’™

I'm passionate about sharing what I've learnt and helping others find a little more calm, balance and breathing space in their lives.

So what do I actually offer?
🌿 SOMA Breath – guided breathwork with music and rhythm

🌿 Meditation & relaxation

🌿 Reiki & energy healing

🌿 Access Bars

🌿 Personalised 1:1 wellbeing sessions

I run small group sessions here at the studio, and I'm also out and about teaching larger groups, workshops and wellbeing sessions for workplaces.

Whether you're feeling stressed, overwhelmed, struggling to switch off or simply want to do something for yourself, you're welcome here.

There's no pressure, no expectations and you don't need any previous experience.
Just come as you are.
If you're new to my page, have a little look around. And if you're curious about anything I offer, feel free to ask!
Have a beautiful day ❀️
