Welcome to The Owl in the Oak Tree

About me.
Hi, I'm Maxine, I'm married and have two amazing children and I currently work part time as an admin clerk in the NHS.
In April 2024 I attended a Mind, Body and Spirit Fair and had a reading that altered my life. From my early twenties I have always had an interest in holistic therapies and connecting with Spirit. Life always seemed to get in the way, I would try something for a short while but then my work would need more of me or it was put on hold when I started a family. During my reading I was told to stop procrastinating about it and get on with it. Unfortunately there are no career advisors to help me with the decisions of what direction to take but after a tremendous amount of reading and looking into what was out there I found a Shamanic teacher that I felt a good connection with and completed a six week introduction into Shamanism. Getting back to nature and working with spirit guides made complete sense to me. Along with my amazing new friends that have been my training partners and my wonderful teacher I will complete my training to be a shamanic practitioner early in 2026. I have also completed my Reiki 1 & 2 training and Hopi ear candle treatments.
I look forward to welcoming you to the "Hideaway" at The Owl in the Oak Tree.
In today’s fast-paced world, where the demands of work, technology, and social commitments often leave little room for self-care, many individuals find themselves in a constant state of stress and overwhelm. The relentless pursuit of success and the pressure to keep up can lead to physical and mental fatigue, making it essential to seek ways to restore balance and harmony in our lives.
Here at The Owl in the Oak Tree we offer holistic therapies that offer a supportive approach to counteract the chaos of modern living. By focusing on the mind, body, and spirit as interconnected aspects of our well-being, these therapies encourage you to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with your inner self.
