What our mentors say

Mentor training & Service

Gráinne – Freya Hammond, Health Creation Mentor, Ireland

As a qualified Nurse, Psychotherapist and homeopath, teaching over 25 years and practicing over 30 years in the field of complementary medicine, I have focused my studies on Positive Psychology in resent years and on How to Keep People Healthy.

This has inspired me in 2005 to study with Dr. Rosy Daniel, to become an accredited Mentor of this wonderful Health Creation Programme, which has enriched my personal and professional life. The very moment I embarked on a career in the healing arts of becoming a Health Creation Mentor, I undeniably entered also again on my own Healer's Journey. The Mentor training was a journey of my own inner exploration, which has helped and supported me personally and professional on the healer’s path. It is my believe that anyone working in the field of therapy, including myself, cannot be truly effective in assisting others in their healing process without also paying attention to themselves.

I became aware of the very many great needs a person facing a cancer diagnoses and their families have, therefore I was delighted to discover the Mentor training of the Health Creation Programme, which enables me to coach individuals more effectively through all aspects of their life’s journey.

Born out my own first-hand experiences with cancer several years ago, the Health Creation Programme (with its Cancer Lifeline Kit) and the Mentor Training was a fresh take on how someone can live with cancer, get medical care and still have a life as a real person, not just a diagnosis. For me, the training opened up new understandings and stimulated creative therapeutic responses for people with a wide range of clinical conditions and also helps those who are still well to develop strategies for feeling even better.

As a practitioner, I gained throughout the Mentor training new skills and tools in helping people come to terms with a diagnosis and ultimately to turn the crisis around into a real opportunity to get his/her life and health on a stronger footing then before. The Mentor training has helped me to guide and assist my clients and patients in mobilizing their resources, to strengthen their will to live and to survive.

I experienced the Health Creation Mentor training as an educational, informative and interactive training opportunity for the development of a comprehensive framework, for inspiring and motivating individuals to take an active and meaningful role in their health care.

The training is a highly personalised system and it is very unique. I experienced lots of joy and fun throughout my time with other participants. Throughout the Mentor training I have learned from other participants. We have shared the insights of our personal journey, and co-created a more vibrant and fulfilling life for our patients and for ourselves. The trainings provided for me an exciting environment for personal healing and growth and has fulfilled my need for connection with a supportive, like-minded community.

I have been privileged to study with Dr. Daniel. She is a remarkable kind woman, a great teacher with an amazing spirit and wisdom. I believe that those fortunate enough to make the decision to attend the Health Creation Mentor Training will sense this in all of the information Dr. Rosy Daniel presents.

It is my opinion that the Health Creation Programme and the Mentor training puts the health back into health care. It is a refreshing approach after years of "strictly by the numbers" health risk appraisals. Without a doubt, the Health Creation Mentor training and its work manual is the most valuable and useful resource on wellness ever written. It has often been said that there is, unfortunately, no manual for living, but this well-loved manual comes pretty close. I highly recommend the Health Creation Mentor training to anyone who is interested to join a professional and personal training programme. Health Creation is a big part of my personal and professional life; I'm shouting it from the rooftops, because it works!

Comments from Di in Exeter
 
I enjoyed growing through learning in the training, hugely. It was extremely exciting being part of the first set of Mentors during the birth of H C. The teaching was delivered with beautiful clarity by Rosy. She imparted her deep knowledge in an easy and accessible way.
 
It was most important to go through the process of being Mentored to help clear out ones own issues, and to get an understanding of how it feels to be on the receiving end.
 
There was always enough time to absorb a week ends work before doing the next one.

I never cease to be amazed at the two way nature of the work. One receives so much back. I often finish a call when I have aimed to inspire, feeling as if I am in the position of having being inspired.
 
We always needs to remember that it is not our responsibility to heal others, in order that we do not become drained. It always feel as though it is a true privilege to be in a Mentors shoes.
 
You get to support all different type of folk.
 
I was somewhat dubious about doing the work on the telephone, concerned that I would not be able to pick up the right cues and keep it appropriate. I have since discovered that it can be even more powerful than one to one. Both parties seem able to hone in one another and keep the concentration going, it's wonderful!

What it was like for me to do the mentor training?
 It takes you on a personal journey of discovery that opens new worlds of possibility on every level – and I should know – I did it twice!The first time I was swept up in the extraordinary process and on the second time around I had the enjoyable status of a qualified mentor and had the opportunity not only to refresh my own knowledge but also to participate in the amazing shifts that the trainee Mentors were making

What it is like for me giving mentor support?
As a mentor I see my job as a guide to people who are embarking on the voyage of discovery that taking responsibility for your own health and welfare represents and this involves much empathic listening.  In my training I began to appreciate the magic of this skill.  When clients feel fully heard often things become clear to them in an instant.  For myself, I find that during the mentor calls I inhabit an almost aboriginal intuitive state that is a great gift.  When it happens, the joy of knowing that your extra sensory perception has helped someone feels amazing.  I would never have discovered this latent capacity in myself without the Health Creation Mentor training.
