Our Journey to Healing

Welcome to TAOD – The Awakening of Death. I specialise in guiding you through the shadows of addiction, anxiety, depression, and fear to reclaim the light that’s always been within you. Through powerful holistic healing methods—EFT, CBT, Reiki, Breathwork, Mindfulness & spiritual guidance—I help you break free from old patterns and awaken to the truth of who you are. This isn’t just healing—it’s transformation at the soul level.

I have been homeless, a sofa surfer, an addict, and in mass amounts of debt. I used to steal, lie, and stumble through life hating my existence. My story shifted dramatically when a life changing event happened to me that shattered my perception of reality and forced me to re-evaluate my life and who I was.

My life is now a thing of beauty and I cherish and love each day; I am proof and testament to the fact that we have the power to create whatever we please, for I have seen both sides of the coin. Learning to understand how buried trauma and beliefs that reside in our subconscious mind affect our external world directly can be truly illuminating. These unconscious beliefs we hold deep within drive our daily and unconscious behaviour. The external world is a mirror to what we hold within, and our perceptions are then reflected back to us through life.

I am now ready to share what I have learnt through my life experiences and empower you to live the life you want and deserve, just as I have. I discovered there was nothing ‘wrong’ with me and that I was perfect all along - I just had some distorted beliefs that clouded me from seeing this. That perfection that I discovered within me isn’t just exclusive to me though, it exists within all of us. When you see beauty in yourself, you can then see it in others and the world.

You are a thing of perfection and of beauty, and deserve the best. If these words already feel ‘uncomfortable’ to you, this is a sign that you hold self-limiting beliefs in your subconscious mind that are holding you back from becoming your highest and most authentic version of yourself.

If you feel like you are wasting your life, or that it’s just passing you by, or you are tired of living the same experience day in day out but are scared or unsure as to how to get out of this, I can guide you. I have turned my life around, and nothing would bring me more joy than to see you transform yours too.

I can help you become free of those limiting-beliefs that you hold about yourself. I can empower you to become care free of what others think of you, which can often hold us back. I can show you how the only person blocking you from success is you. I can provide tools that you can use so you can live authentically, act freely, and take action without fear. I can help you to go from a victim mentality to a warrior mentality and see that what triggers you is your best friend, as it is highlighting an unhealed wound or aspect of self. Everything out ‘there’ is a mirror to what is happening ‘within’; make that reflection beautiful.

David did an inspiring and moving talk at an event I went to and he spoke about his raw and impactful life experiences and lessons of his spiritual awakening and how it changed his life and he found his purpose through loss. It was engaging and profoundly emotive and enlightenong to hear his transformation. I would highly recommend David and look forward to seeing and exploring more of of his work.

I went for Reiki, Dave was very welcoming, kind and friendly. He created a nice warm relaxing environment and offered healthy refreshments. He explained everything to me and made me feel very happy and relaxed. Once finished I felt very relaxed and content. Dave talked me through what he had come across, and was very on point with what he told me. It was worth it and would definitely recommend.

I read Dave’s book The Awakening of Death a few years ago ( really interesting read) and was thrilled to hear he was opening a business in my local area.
Today I had my first reiki appointment at TAOD with Dave, who made me feel very welcome upon arrival.
The treatment was very calming and the ambience within the treatment room helped me to feel comfortable and relaxed.
Dave is very professional and passionate about his job, I felt at ease while speaking to Dave before and after the treatment.
I’m looking forward to my next treatment.

Qualifications

Alongside my personal life experience which I have learnt is the greatest teacher compared to any formal intellectual training, I have completed multiple training courses that are accredited by the CPD Certification Service, endorsed by ABC Awards and Certa Awards Quality Licence Scheme, accredited by the Complimentary Medical Association (CMA), City & Guilds, and are Ofqual regulated.

My training ranges from Spiritual Life Coaching, an EFT diploma, a Mindfulness diploma, basic Cognitive Behavioural Therapy diploma (CBT), and an advanced CBT diploma. I am trained in Angelic Reiki first and second degree from the Angelic Reiki Association. I also am also trained in Usui Reiki (Level 1).

My most recent achievement and one which I am really proud of is becoming a certified breathwork instructor endorsed by Yogalap and Yacep. I have dedicated the last 8 years of my life to learning about myself and healing, after I witnessed the fine line between life and death. From that moment, I vowed to help others and learn something new everyday to help the world heal. All of these certificates are great, and I have enjoyed the content they have taught me, but my experience is what I truly teach with.

Where I’m Located

I have a beautiful unit down in TAOD - Unit 2, Pennyfarthing Arcade, located in Sedgley Dudley DY3 1RW West Midlands. In this warm and welcoming space, it gives you the opportunity to relax and truly be yourself without judgement.

We have a beautiful community here, surrounded by The Beehive Yoga Studio, Emma’s Humbugs Coffee and Crafts, and Hope and Dreams Wellbeing and Spiritual shop.

Free parking is available nearby and there are also other car parks nearby too that charge £1 for 2 hours.

Zoom sessions are available but ideally I would love to work with you face to face, as I feel greater connection this way, but the choice is yours.
