I’m going to try to explain my experience with Sarah Hyde without going into too many details about my life. Let’s put it this way: we all have things happen to us, both good and bad. No matter what they are, we carry them with us in our proverbial backpack.
The good things feel light and airy, but the bad things feel heavy, like rocks. We often think that if we just pack them away, they won’t be there anymore, and all will be well. But the truth is, the more we do this, the heavier the load becomes, and it starts to affect our bodies before our minds even realise it.
Sooner or later, it becomes too heavy, and we have no choice but to put that backpack down.
Reaching a Breaking Point
So why go this deep, you might wonder?
I’ve been through a lot in my life, and most recently, I experienced a significant bump in the road, alongside a traumatic incident that left me with PTSD. This in itself isn’t unusual for human beings, but at this stage of my life, I found myself feeling lost and broken, with no idea how to claw myself back up from the depths.
So when I was offered the chance to meet Sarah Hyde, I didn’t even have to think about it. I was in a place where I was desperately trying to shove everything down into my backpack, but there was no more space, and my knees were buckling under the weight.
For years, I have been strong no matter what came my way. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but I’ve been stuck in “fight or flight” mode for most of my life, since childhood, actually. To the point where I wasn’t even breathing properly—shallow breaths, constantly alert, always ready to react if needed.
Meeting Sarah Hyde
Sarah entered my life like this beautiful, powerful goddess. She is so easy to be around that I felt as though I’d known her for years. I stepped into this experience having no idea what it would be or what it would do, but even though I was nervous, I decided to go all in because I needed help so badly. I felt safe, comfortable, and ready to open up wounds and triggers in order to find a way forward.
The Power of Guided Breathwork
My sessions were one-on-one guided breathwork sessions—and no, this isn’t simply taking a deep breath and holding it. It’s a very specific form of breathing, and it’s intense. To someone new, it may feel strange at first, but I promise you, it’s incredibly powerful.
I would lie on the floor with Sarah Hyde sitting beside me, gently reminding me to return to the breath if I drifted away. The music is carefully chosen, intuitively matched to the energy she sees in you. In many ways, it’s also a guided meditation. Sarah would say things that somehow, almost magically, were exactly what my inner self needed to hear.
I often found myself breaking into tears when moments from my life surfaced—deep, soul-crushing cries. Sarah would guide me back to the breath, teaching me how to breathe through sadness and pain, instead of choking on it as we so often do.
Healing the Inner Child
I didn’t grow up in the calmest environment, to put it respectfully. Little me had to grow up fast. She went through things I wish she hadn’t, and these sessions allowed me to almost tell her that she was always enough and that she is safe now. It felt as though I was soothing myself with the words I so desperately needed back then.
Releasing Shame and Trauma
Throughout my childhood and into young adulthood, things happened that I carried deep shame for, shame that was never mine to hold. I often felt that people would look at me and see a fraud or assume I wasn’t a good person because of it.
During one session, Sarah Hyde asked me to scream, to scream, kick, and hit with all my might. And I did. I let out a guttural, heart-wrenching, soul-releasing scream. It was one of the most powerful moments of all my sessions.
Pain, trauma, shame, and the sadness I’d been carrying were released. The anxiety and distress stuck in my throat finally let go. The tension from holding my guard for so long was released through the physical movement.
Interestingly, before meeting Sarah Hyde, I had planned to go to the Seven Sisters Cliffs just to scream into the wind. I could feel something building inside me that I couldn’t carry anymore. So how did she know?
Being Held and Supported
When my emotions became overwhelming, Sarah would ground me by placing her hands exactly where they were needed, my heart, my feet. She just knew.
I began to look back at what had shaped me, not as a failed life, but as proof of my strength. I recognised how hard I fought to be where I am today. I lead with kindness, even when I feel depleted. I am proud of that now.
There was another moment when she spoke about finding my inner warrior goddess. Those words, though perhaps not said exactly that way, have followed me for years. I’ve been called both long before I met Sarah Hyde. Once again, I couldn’t help but think, how did she know?
In-Person and Online Sessions
Two of my sessions were held one-on-one on Harley Street, while my final session took place via Zoom. I was curious to see how it would translate through a screen and slightly nervous about not being physically close when my emotions took over.
But it worked beautifully. Sarah could still see everything, guide me, and calm me when needed. By then, she knew me well enough that the distance didn’t matter.
Visions and Integration
During these sessions, images and emotions emerge naturally. I had three particularly powerful visions. One was of little me walking into the woods, toward sunbeams filtering through the trees. I felt safe and happy.
Another vision was of me being supported by my brothers, feeling their pride, and standing beside them was a man who has meant so much to me for the past decade. Even though our journeys have since diverged, I felt his support deeply.
The final image still brings tears to my eyes: all the girls and women I have ever been, standing in a circle holding hands. Little me looked at the woman I am today in awe, and adult me looked back, saying, you are strong, you are smart, you are more than enough—and most importantly, you are safe. Words little me needed so badly back then.
Kundalini Activation at Home House
As a bonus, Sarah Hyde invited me to her first Kundalini Activation session at the beautiful Home House in central London. It was a small, mixed group in an intimate circular room.
We lay down with our eyes closed, music playing, energy flowing. Everyone experienced something different—some danced, some cried, some screamed. I remained mostly still, but felt my heart needing to release once again.
When I finally let go, I cried openly. I felt hands placed gently but firmly on my womb and my head. That moment of support and connection was profoundly moving. Even in a room full of people, I felt safe enough to surrender.
Some people experienced visions; others, like me, felt a deep sense of relief. I walked away with the same empowerment that every session with Sarah has given me.
A New Way Forward
I don’t think words can fully do justice to the work Sarah does or to what these sessions have given me. I am forever grateful. I know I’ve found not only an incredible practitioner, but a true friend—and a new way of holding myself.
I’ve also chosen to invest in Sarah’s online portal, which offers over 200 activations, breathwork videos, affirmations, manifestations, and self-love practices. It’s a place I know I can return to when I feel myself spiralling, a place where I feel safe.
Walking Forward as My Warrior Goddess
So now, I take the hands of all the girls and women I have been, and all those I will become, and we continue this journey with intention, strength, and the power of my inner Warrior Goddess.
