Nicky Mott has always had passion for nature and movement and this was anchored by her mother and father who spent many hours taking her into the country as a child and nurturing her love of dance. She has danced all her life and loves the freedom that movement through dance and yoga brings to the physical body.

At 16 Nicky began the first part of her working life in banking and the car industry. It was during this time she asked the question, "there has to be more to life than this?”

She met Susan and David Hill who nurtured her growth through the teachings of metaphysics and the ancient ways of the Native Americans. It was here that she experienced her first Vision Quest and went on to assist Susan and David facilitate these events in Kent, England. She also attended the works of Denise Linn and Gill Edwards.

Nicky then went on to study Homeopathy and worked at Helios Homoeopathic pharmacy for almost 10 years before moving to France. During this time she worked with the knowledge of Tom Brown wilderness survival and began her journey with Alberto Villoldo and Linda Fitch of The Four Winds Society. An incredible journey with the teachings of the Laika, the medicine men and women of the Peruvian Jungle and Mountains.

Nicky now works as a shamanic practitioner and is a senior staff member at the Four Winds Society.

She looks to assist the energy of the medicine to come to France and currently runs small workshops in a beautiful retreat center in Tours, France.

Nicky enjoys the simplicity, complexity and rhythms of the natural world. From her own experiences she has learned to read the signs of spirit/God and understands that we fully participate in creating our own reality. The difference is whether we do this consciously or unconsciously.

Nicky loves to share the ancient teachings that show us there is no one our there to blame, that we no longer have to be victims of life, but masters of our own journey through life. The greatest work we can ever do is our own personal inner work. If we want to see peace in our relationships, families, countries or the world then we want to be peace within first. When we are peace then that is how we program the world and peace is what we experience.

The song Man in the mirror, by Michael Jackson, says it all – “if you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make the change.”

Nicky’s dream is to make these teachings available to everyone.

“What makes me smile are the shifts that people make purely by showing up. Life still happens, it is a journey after all and there are challenges and achievements to be experienced. The ancient teachings help us, through great tools, to know that when we let go of our old stories and beliefs, we can shift our perception of the world around us and as we do so, so our world shifts. We begin to understand that every belief is in itself limiting and through the experience of the ancient ways we begin to make choices from a place of personal power.

The greatest gift is that any personal work that we step up for is ultimately for our children’s children. It is not just the personal benefit but the knowledge that we all play a participatory role in dreaming a world into being that we want for future generations, not just human but the generations to come in all walks of life.”
