SmallBiz100 Spotlight: Michele Lowery, Kasama Well-being

When you step into Michele’s therapy room at Kasama Well-being, the first thing you notice is the feeling.

It’s calm and quietly powerful.  Crystal clusters, Colour Mirrors bottles, and a sense that this is somewhere you can finally exhale.

Michele is a complementary therapist specialising in energy healing and energy psychology. She works with EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Reiki, Colour Mirrors bottle readings, numerology, crystal energy and more, all centred around one aim: helping people move from pain, stuckness and overwhelm into ease, clarity and relief.

“Everything I do is energy psychology in the main. It all comes back to the same result, we just get there in different ways.”

Who Michele Works With and Why They Come

People come to Michele for all sorts of reasons, including:

  • Emotional or physical pain
  • Anxiety, stress and burnout
  • Overwhelm and feeling “stuck”
  • Fears and phobias
  • Grief and big life transitions
  • Weight and body confidence issues
  • Menopause symptoms

For deep relaxation, Michele often recommends Reiki or crystal therapy, both of which help the body and nervous system soften and unwind.

Michele’s Journey into Energy Work

Michele has always been drawn to spirituality and astrology, but her journey as a practitioner really took shape in Spain.

In around 2016, while spending time at her home there, she regularly saw a local Reiki master, booking in “two or three sessions a week” because she loved how it made her feel. One day, that Reiki master told her she’d been guided to attune Michele to Reiki.

Michele didn’t hesitate.

“I didn’t even need to think about it, I just said, ‘Okay.’”

She went on to complete Reiki Levels 1, 2 and 3, and gained her Master level.

Then lockdown hit and with it, an opportunity to dive deeper.

During that period, she explored:

  • Moonology
  • Astrology
  • Numerology
  • Crystal Energy with Kyle Gray (becoming a Crystal Energy Guide and Angel Guide)

By 2022, she’d added Colour Mirrors and EFT (Levels 1 & 2) to her toolkit, studying them back-to-back over six months. She also has Specialist Grief Training as a Level 2 Practitioner. 

The more she learned, the more she noticed how everything connected.

“Once you start doing one thing and then enter into another, you recognise the links between them all.”

A Safe, Non – Judgmental Space

One of the things that stands out most about Michele is how deeply she honours safety and non-judgment.

Only one client is ever with her at a time. Before each session she prepares the room, cleanses the space, calls in her guides and sets clear intentions so that the person in front of her feels held, supported and protected.

Her approach is shaped by her own experiences of being judged in the past.

“Whatever people are doing, they’re doing it for a reason. Often it’s a coping mechanism for their challenges and difficulties. My role is to help them move into healthier coping mechanisms.”

Her therapy room reflects that softness and care. It’s tranquil, colourful and peaceful, filled with crystals, bottles and little details that invite you to relax.

EFT Picture Tapping, Her Favourite Technique

Out of all the modalities she works with, one of Michele’s absolute favourites is EFT Picture Tapping.

It’s especially powerful for people who:

  • Struggle to express their emotions
  • Feel disconnected from how they feel
  • Have experienced childhood trauma or deep emotional wounding

Instead of talking everything through, clients draw simple images, colours, lines or symbols while Michele guides them through tapping.

No artistic skill is needed,  stick figures and scribbles are more than enough.

“It moves you out of the conscious mind and goes straight to the subconscious. You’re not overthinking, it just comes straight from deeper within.”

Because of that, things can shift surprisingly quickly.

A Client Story That Stays With Her

One client story Michele shared really shows the depth of her work.

A woman came to her with no motivation and a feeling that she’d “lost her inner driver”. Michele asked her to walk through a typical day. Most of it took place in the same chair; scrolling on the remote, scrolling on Facebook, sitting there for hours.

As they worked together, they realised the issue wasn’t laziness or lack of willpower. It was the chair.

During a very dark period of menopause, that chair had been her safe place. Her brain had wired “I’m safe” to that exact spot. Years later, she was still anchored there, stuck in the pattern without realising why.

Through EFT and energy work, Michele helped her rewire that association and feel safe in herself, rather than in the chair.

The client no longer needed to sit there all day and her motivation began to return.

“You never know what it is you’re looking for. Sometimes it’s hidden in something you wouldn’t even think twice about, like a piece of furniture.”

Values, Integrity and Running a Small Business

Working in the wellbeing world isn’t always easy. There’s still a lot of scepticism and misunderstanding around holistic therapies.

Michele is clear that not everyone will “get” what she does and that’s okay. She’s not here to convince those who are determined to discredit it. She’s here for the people who are open, curious and ready for change.

At the heart of Kasama Well-being are her values:

  • Integrity – everything above board, ethical and lawful
  • Safety – emotional, energetic and practical
  • Respect – for each person’s path and pace
  • Non-judgment – meeting people where they are

“Everything I do has to be aligned with my values and standards. That’s just the way I’ve always been.”

Small Businesses Michele Loves to Support
As part of SmallBiz100, I asked Michele which small businesses she supports.

I’m very grateful that Kate Anderson Photography got a mention (thank you, Michele 🖤). She also highlighted her hairdresser, Tracy, a brilliant example of those everyday small businesses that quietly keep us feeling like ourselves.

Starlight Sisterhood, Women’s Circles & Support
Looking ahead, Michele is excited to grow Starlight Sisterhood, her women’s circle.

  • Hosted online via a private Facebook group
  • Initially focused on menopause support
  • Expanding to include a more general circle for women who want emotional support, gentle community and a place to explore EFT and energy work

Groups will be kept intentionally small, around six women, so everyone feels safe to share. There’ll be clear confidentiality agreements and gentle “housekeeping” to protect the space.

She plans to weave in EFT and, of course, Colour Mirrors bottles, which seem to find their way into almost everything she does.

Membership will be paid, but “nominal”. Designed to keep it accessible while honouring the value of the work.

 

Working Online, Support from Anywhere

Apart from in-person Reiki, all of Michele’s modalities can be offered online:

  • EFT & picture tapping
  • Colour Mirrors sessions
  • Crystal energy work
  • Numerology and astrology-based insights
  • Distant Reiki (which she distinguishes from in-person Reiki)

That means clients can work with her from anywhere in the UK or the world, from the comfort of their own home. Given how relaxing her sessions can be, being able to roll straight into bed afterwards is a bonus.

She’s also currently finishing her hypnotherapy and NLP training, with just her final hypnotherapy case study to complete. Another string to her already powerful bow.

Thinking About Therapy?

If you’re reading this and wondering whether therapy or energy work might help you, Michele’s message is simple:

“Give it a try, you may be surprised. If in doubt, give it a go.”

You’re never “too stuck”, “too broken” or “too late” for support. Sometimes, it’s one conversation, one session, or one new approach that starts to shift everything.

Final Word

Michele’s hope for the future of Kasama Well-being is beautifully straightforward:

“To see as many clients as possible but not for too long.”

Her measure of success isn’t how many people stay, but how many feel resourced enough to go live their lives fully without needing her.

And honestly, for a therapist that says it all.
