Janey Colbourne

I am a poet and a philosopher. I also write about health and wellbeing, in both my non-fiction writings and my poetry. Many of my poems express my deep relationship with nature, and with the plants in particular. Some aspects of my writing I consider to be therapeutic through recognition and expression of people's needs and feelings or through presenting a new, empowering perspective. Healing can be achieved through reconnection with ourselves, our human family and with nature. I seek wisdom, courage and humour in life, and to discover new, deeper and broader consciousness and awareness.

For years I have been practising meditation and shamanic journeying as a means to growth.

I have a degree in herbal medicine and formerly I worked as a consultant medical herbalist. I have also worked in natural health retail and have training in shamanic healing and breastfeeding peer support. I love most of all to support and inspire people through my writing. I am a neurodiversity advocate, raising awareness and understanding of the diverse ways people think, feel and perceive the world.

I have a lovely young daughter who is also a budding writer!
