The Story Behind This Site

Welcome to Naturegrooves! My name is Lucie, and this website is all about my journey in search of better physical and emotional health, which culminated in discovering the legendary Donna Eden and becoming an Eden Energy Medicine practitioner.

Let me go back in time a bit. A large part of my life has been devoted to music. I have played piano and keyboards with various bands and solo artists since my adolescence. It’s been an eventful and colourful path, which I’ve described in more detail in the post My Musical Journey, if you feel like having a glance later.

However, life on the road was not always about artistic highs on stage with fantastic musicians or hilarious moments in the tour van (such as constructing authority-mocking limericks at 3:30 am on the way from Scotland.)

From the very start of my life as a musician, I became aware that the joys of this lifestyle can equal the challenges. It’s easy to get sleep-deprived and exhausted while touring, and the temptation to keep rocking with the help of booze is ever-present. I started developing a psychological dependency on alcohol.

I was also very frequently ill with respiratory issues – chest infections and even pneumonia, and my immune system was very low. I would also periodically go through depressive phases with self-destructive tendencies.

The Wake-Up Call

In 2018 I experienced a strange incident when my body suddenly collapsed and all I could feel were tangible currents of energy travelling up my limbs as if to leave me. On the way to the hospital I could hear the ambulance crew saying the words ‘possible heart attack’.

I spent several hours in the hospital unconscious, and then I was sent home with no diagnosis. Whatever the whole experience meant, it was certainly a big warning sign for me to start taking better care of my body.

What’s in Store

Since that strange experience in 2018, I have gained much more control over my health, and I am delighted to be able to share a great number of tools and practices that have helped me keep my health in balance – above all, Donna Eden’s energy medicine and her Daily Energy Routine.

Throughout this website, you will find articles describing techniques for balancing your energies, supporting a healthy immune system, and feeling more alive and joyful.

You will also find a list of inspirational books and online courses that have played a great part in my journey to better health and personal growth.
