It’s been a while since I last said hello, and for those of you new to my website, page or thinking about working with me, I thought it might be helpful to share a little about my approach to conscious living and what that really means to me.
I’m Lucy, founder and creator of Conscious Living with Lucy. I’m 49, and mother to a beautiful 4½-year-old who is proving to be one of my greatest teachers in this life. I offer my work both in Suffolk and online.
The Birth of Conscious Living with Lucy
I created Conscious Living with Lucy after reflecting deeply on how I wanted to live my life in alignment with my values, intentions, and truth. My purpose is to share my insights and experiences around spirituality, self-development, and healing modalities. I strive for balance and authenticity, and my hope is to support others in doing the same through the practices that have worked for me.
What Does Conscious Living Mean?
For me, conscious living isn’t about perfection or making the “right” choices all the time. It’s about being intentional, living with awareness, reflection, and compassion. It’s about noticing the choices we make, the values that guide us, and the impact our actions have on ourselves, others, and the world around us. It's a practice of questioning and discerning moment to moment, and in reflection.
I often ask myself:
What did I say or do?
Where did that reaction or behaviour come from?
How did it impact me or someone else?
Do I feel aligned and clear in my conscience, or would I like to act differently next time?
This kind of awareness also extends to the wider world. I consider the bigger picture, the impact of consumer choices, fast fashion, plastic packaging, and household products on our planet. I try to take small but meaningful steps: buying less, choosing organic and natural products, supporting sustainability, and spending consciously.
Collective Action and Realistic Change
Living consciously also means being realistic about what I can do right now. Small steps matter. Whether it’s joining community groups that support equality, donating time or money to causes that align with my values, or simply making mindful changes at home. Each choice contributes to a greater good.
The Inner Work
Conscious living also involves self-reflection and inner healing. I continuously explore my inner landscape - my shadow, my patterns, my limiting beliefs. I work to understand my emotions and behaviours so that I can engage in relationships consciously and compassionately. This process helps me recognise which relationships bring me joy and which ones I may need to release. It also helps me celebrate my strengths and express myself more authentically.
Maintaining balance and energy is key, too. When I feel grounded and rested, I can process experiences with clarity and respond from a place of wisdom rather than reaction.
Connection and Practice
My spiritual and healing practices help me deepen my connection with something greater — the Creator, Mother Earth, the Universe, the unseen force that moves through all things.
I practise gratitude, yoga, meditation, Reiki, energy healing, and nature connection. I also draw on creative and earth-based wisdom traditions. These are the tools that nourish my intuition, strengthen my awareness, and help me live more consciously each day.
I find great inspiration in connecting with others walking a similar path. Not perfectionists, but genuine souls doing their inner work, living authentically, and encouraging others to do the same.
My Offerings
Through Conscious Living with Lucy, I offer energy healing, yoga, intuitive life coaching, and drum healing. These practices are designed to support women on their journey toward self-awareness and wholeness. These practices are ones that have transformed my own life. For 30 years, I’ve experienced, studied, and trained in various healing and spiritual modalities, and this journey continues to evolve.
I also host a podcast and write occasional blog posts when inspiration strikes. Each one is a reflection of the ongoing path of conscious living.
From My Heart
This work is not something I “do”. It’s who I am. It’s part of my ancestral lineage and soul’s calling. My purpose is to live in alignment with truth, to embody what I teach, and to share these gifts with others from a place of integrity and compassion. If you feel drawn to join my classes, workshops, training, or one-to-one sessions, please reach out. I’d love to walk alongside you on this journey of conscious living.
