Garri Holness
Soulful Wellness Coach
Trauma Transformer
I'm Garri, a dedicated advocate for mental health and well-being. With a background in metaphysics and a NCFE CACHE Level 2 Certificate in Mental Health First Aid and Advocacy in the workplace, I offer a unique and holistic approach to supporting clients' well-being. By combining my knowledge of metaphysics and mental health, I have strong empathy and understanding for individuals facing mental health challenges, creating a safe space for them to express themselves and help identify the underlying causes of their distress and create personalised support plans using various techniques and practices.
My goal is to empower clients to take charge of their well-being by providing practical tools and teaching self-care practices. Through this approach, clients become active participants in their healing process.
Garri uses a variety of Techniques and Practices to create personalised support plans for clients. Some of these techniques and practices include:
1. Meditation: Garri incorporates meditation into the support plans to help clients relax their minds, reduce stress, and cultivate mindfulness. Meditation can also aid in improving focus and promoting emotional well-being.
2. Visualisation: Garri may guide clients through visualisation exercises to help them imagine positive outcomes, release negative emotions, and enhance their mental and emotional well-being. Visualisation can be a powerful tool for creating positive change and achieving goals.
3. Mindfulness Exercises: Garri may incorporate mindfulness exercises into the support plans to help clients become more aware of their thoughts, feelings, and sensations in the present moment. Mindfulness can promote relaxation, reduce anxiety, and improve overall mental well-being.
4. Positive Affirmations: Garri may encourage clients to practice positive affirmations as part of their support plans. Positive affirmations involve repeating positive statements about oneself to cultivate a positive mindset and overcome negative self-talk.
5. Journaling: Garri may suggest journaling as a practice to help clients explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Journaling can provide clarity, promote self-reflection, and serve as a therapeutic tool for managing emotions.
These are just a few examples of the techniques and practices that Garri may include in personalised support plans. The specific techniques used will depend on the unique needs and preferences of each client.
Testimony
Garri’s calm and positive outlook on life and his uplifting, bubbly personality is infectious.
When i met Garri i had been struggling physically and mentally for years and found it very hard to open up to anyone specially a stranger, but with Garri he’s understanding, empathy and kindhearted ness just draws it out of you. Always there to listen to all my problems then to give me positive advice, encouragement and to remember there is always someone worse off than you.
I am doing so much better these days, I would still be going through if it wasn’t for Garri.
Thank you for always being there.

Garri’s energy and guidance has helped me over the past 5 years as I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2022 and before that a burnout from work. Meeting with Garri regularly encouraged me to stay focused whilst fighting the battle through his words, experience and support. He gave me the tools of wisdom to get through the tough days and show me that there is light. And to accept what has happened, have gratitude and the hope to heal. Garri really listens and has empathy and understanding which helps you to open up and share your journey and to navigate it in a safe space. His energy is infectious and I feel a lot of people could learn from him. I feel grateful our paths have crossed and can now call him my friend.
