About

Susana-Norte-2015-Copy-1-292x300

Having both spent twenty years working in sales and business development within the corporate sector, we decided to leave behind our successful careers and discover our true selves and explore the world. This inspirational journey gave us the courage and knowledge to listen to our intuition and ultimately follow our Life Purpose.

 

Susana Norte is a fully qualified Spiritual Counselor and a Practitioner of Holistic Therapies accredited by the Complimentary Medical Association (CMA) in the UK. Susana is also a fully qualified Nutritional Therapist and a Detox & Clinic Weight Lost Specialist accredited by both the International Institute for Complementary Therapies in Australia and the organization for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in the UK. Susana provides her clients with a deep and broad foundation of knowledge and understanding about their personal health, both physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. She operates from a space of empathy, experience and knowledge, providing her clients a professional and trusting environment that supports the necessary inner work to take place. Due to her holistic approach, Susana teaches the importance of connecting with the Higher Self in order for an individual to more clearly understand the real meaning of their life and purpose. The Soul Plan Reading is an extremely accurate and effective tool to help in understanding an individual’s ‘soul contract’. This inner work enables an individual to discover their core personal values, gifts and passions, however, this personal transformation may only take place when the client is ready let go of old often unhelpful negative habits and limiting beliefs. You can read more about the positive impact of her work from her client testimonials.

 

Originally from Portugal, Susana lived in U.K. for 17 years. During this period Susana built up a successful career in the fashion retail business working as a senior manager in both in Portugal and the U.K. Her life experience and education are very profound and unique. Since childhood, she felt a special awareness and presence of a strong intuition that provided guidance throughout her life.

 

Susana faced many personal difficulties at an early age. It was through these difficult life experiences that she learned and developed a deeper understanding about the existence of a Higher self. During this early stage she began a journey of mysticism that continued beyond the boundaries of this physical world. Susana’s interest in spirituality started when she was very young partly because she was very intuitive toward people’s feelings, emotions and thoughts. She could ‘see’ their unfulfilled potential and how these people could sabotage their own life journeys. She was attracted by the complexity of human behavior and the psychology of the mind, whist also feeling great inspiration from the spiritual masters of the East.

 

In 2008 Susana left the corporate world behind along with her comfortable life and began to explore many different countries in South East Asia. This journey led to many healing shifts from within along with gaining a greater perspective of the world and her role in it. During her travels she spent most of her time studying meditation, participating in Vipassana retreats and learning new holistic healing techniques.

 

Upon Susana return from her travels in 2010 Susana made the decision to change her career, transferring her skills, knowledge and education into a new stream of work related to Spiritual Counseling, Nutrition and Detoxification of the mind, body and spirit.
