Shane’s compassion and warmth was the first thing that struck me when I started working with him. His ability to communicate theories, research and up to date pain management information in a way that was accessible and full of empathy offered me a sense of being seen, understood and supported. I have been suffering with migraines for over a decade and working with Shane really helped me reframe my own approach to dealing with these sensations and gave me a sense of control over my responses to pain.

I went to Shane as I felt continuous tightness in my upper back and shoulders and after years of stretching it was not improving. Shane taught me to integrate deep breathing and yogic exercises targeting the areas of tightness. He explicitly explained the exercises which made them very easy to follow and do. I’ve integrated these exercises into my daily routine and feel absolutely amazing. I have found a noticeable reduction in the tightness in my shoulders. I would recommend Shane to anyone who feels that breathwork might be of benefit to them as he is a calm and reassuring teacher who was easily able to target my specific area of need.

Before meeting Shane, I could feel my body starting to react to the stress and enact old chronic pain patterns that in previous years had caused debilitating issues.  Shane’s work and experience is grounded in evidence-based medically approved practices, complemented by the ancient wisdom held in mindfulness and meditation practices. It aligns with the rehabilitation processes and tools I have learned over the last decade.
Shane’s online coaching reflected deep respect, encouragement, kindness, compassion and wisdom as he listened to my story and thought patterns, and gently guided a shift in thinking, language and perspective.
The combination of cognitive and logical concepts soothed my intellect, while the simple yet effective breathing and meditation practices eased my parasympathetic nervous system into a new relaxed place. My days are more energised; and my sleep deeper, and of better quality.

I highly recommend Shane’s Pain Management Course. Thanks to a mix of breathing exercises, meditation and education tailored to my situation, I understand better how pain works, I have less fear around it and the severity of my symptoms has reduced as a result. Shane is also super supportive and caring and it’s really motivating to have him by your side.

When I first discovered Shane’s pain management course, I’d been suffering from chronic pain for a number of years. The pain was getting worse and I was feeling despondent. From the start, Shane challenged my accepted ideas around pain and gave me hope that I might one day be pain-free.
Shane’s approach to pain management is multi-modal; he shares information, works on the breath to settle the nervous system, and focuses on posture, gentle movement and strength-building. He has a wealth of knowledge about the human body and knows how difficult – and yet, how fundamental – it is to start thinking differently about pain.
Shane’s superpowers are his compassion and intuition. He just seemed to know what I needed from week to week, and he adjusted our sessions accordingly. Shane was always available to answer my questions between sessions, and he continues to encourage me to explore new ways to change my pain experience. I’m so grateful to have Shane guiding me on my pain management journey.

Taking part in Shane’s meditation course was a joy. I had fallen out of love with meditation, and couldn’t seem to get back into it. This course was the perfect way to find my way back into a regular practice with ease. The approach is super simple, and the balance of theory and practice gave an overall understanding of the positive effects it can have on my life. I didn’t feel under any pressure to be the perfect meditator, because the approach allows you to explore and be curious, while finding the calm through meditation. Shane is open and honest, which opened up a real safe place amongst the group. He asks questions that makes you explore or understand each meditation experience. He also guides you into the meditations with a soothing and relaxing tone. I would highly recommend this course. Each session became a starred event in the diary.

“The effortless meditation course provided a great introduction into implementing meditation more regularly into my routine. Shane provided knowledge, insight and feedback each week, which helped a lot with habit formation and also led to self-reflection about the practice. The use of powerpoints, images, and Shane’s own experience with effortless meditation really added a lot to starting this practice for me. Effortless meditation has become a stress-management tool for me, and helps me to feel more grounded during busier times, and this course was a great starting point. I would highly recommend this to other people who would like to include meditation into their daily routine.”

Having meditated for for some years I was interested in what new tools I could learn from Shane. The technique of Effortless Meditation was not something I had heard of before and from the first day Shane combined teaching us the technique, the theory behind it, and guiding us into our meditations. Shane created a wonderful open space where we felt comfortable to speak up about what we experienced during our meditations, the things we found difficult and what was holding us back. I really feel that I learned a lot during this week course and would highly recommend it to anyone who would like to learn more tools on how to quieten their mind while figuring out their triggers and how best to handle them.
