Hello. My name is Bridget Finklaire. I’m an author, writer, speaker and change-maker. I create positive change in my life and the life of others. I have a background in psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and healing, and a former career in public relations.
I was born in Hampshire, England and lived for over 25 years in London before moving to Cape Town.
I was a professional psychotherapist for 15 years, including 3 years in Harley Street. I went on to coach professionally for a further year.
Having trained in using my intuition, I brought together the threads of my journey thus far and in 2012, I followed my inner guidance to South Africa – a country I had never set foot in until then. I knew only three people – two of whom I had met only once, the other a distant friend. I began coaching people to create what they would love ‘on purpose’ (purposefully, and according to their soul purpose), before writing my first novel ‘Golden’. I now live in Cape Town with my South African husband.
Since 1994, I have studied many spiritual, metaphysical and esoteric teachings and explored different techniques – from meditation to yoga and from chanting to prayer. I still follow my own daily practice, which changes as I evolve.
I have facilitated and taught personal and spiritual development courses, including meditation, using your intuition to create your soul purpose, healing, dowsing, sacred geometry, space clearing, A Course in Miracles, TruthYoga (a return to yoga as a spiritual practice) and FreedomDance, a free-form conscious shamanic trance dance.
I currently facilitate a study group for The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch (R) (Dr JJ Hurtak, 1973 – www.keysofenoch.org), which I have been studying since 2007.
I am both a writer and a speaker – teaching what I have learnt through stories and talks. If you would like to chat to me about articles, interviews, podcasts or speaking events, please contact me.
My intention is to share my spiritual wisdom and my personal journey with you in order to inspire you to awaken to your truth. In finding who you truly are – what really makes you tick, what you really care about – you’ll begin to find your bliss. Your bliss may not be what you think it is. More correctly, it’s your Soul’s Bliss – the thing your soul yearns for and the thing your soul came here to do. Once you’ve found the golden thread of your Soul’s Path, you can follow the trail, learning, growing, healing, sharing and becoming more fulfilled as you take your own unique journey through life. In creating what your heart and soul loves, you’ll feel more connected, more at peace, more joyous. You’ll create a greater measure of love in your life and the lives of others. We each have our part to play in the Greater Whole and we each have a gift to contribute. It is the expression of that gift and the sharing of it that brings joy. As each person expresses and shares, we create a cohesive and harmonious society.
These are some of the questions I hope to raise so that you can find the answers within your own life: Where am I on my own journey of creating purposefully? How do I move forward? How do I follow my path? What must I do to awaken further? What is my contribution? What does it all mean and why does it matter?
Thank you for reading,
Love, Light & Blessings
Bridget
