Meet Aeirlughe
Aeirlughe Graw - Somatic Therapist
Medicine Woman - Advocate & Educator
Speaker. Writer. Mother. Lover. Musician. Devotee.
When I was born, my parents named me Rebecca. I love this name, it’s an old, old name. For a while I traded it in, but then I decided that I wanted it back.
At the end of 2012 I found myself in a place called The Bush Sanctuary in Rosebank. With the place to myself I embarked on a 3 day fast and silence.
During that time I wrote, prayed & meditated. I was shown a name. 3 versions of the name, actually. The maiden, the mother and the crone. The mother was Aeirlughe (Aehyr-luE). My oversoul.
The names stayed tucked away in my journal for over 10 years, until my marriage ended and I found myself in need of a new name anyway, so I became Aeirlughe.
I lived wholly by this name for a while, and these days some people know me as Bec and others as Lu. My legal name now is Rebecca Lu Graw. I do still however use Aeirlughe in sacred and healing spaces.
My gift is a spiritual one. Full credit to the Divine, I am grateful everyday for the opportunity to practice healing. It doesn’t belong to any one denomination, but the One that is shared by them all.
It is the healing that happens spontaneously and joyfully. It is the journey of transformation. It is holding a loving candle of presence through the dark times in life.
I developed this gift with thousands upon thousands of hours of independent study, learning from some of the best in the world, and deepening my abilities experientially as a loving guide and channel for Healing.
Once I had my children it became necessary that my gift support my family.
I trained and qualified as a Somatic Therapist in the REST modality (an incredible, brain-building practice that heals and tones the nervous system). I went on an extensive therapeutic journey myself and I reactivated the intuitive bodywork & movement medicine practice where my foundational experience lay.
Now 15 years into my journey as a healing practitioner and integrative bodyworker, my love for this work continues to deepen. My latest professional (and personal) development venture has taken me into the incredible work of IFS (Internal Family Systems) which is absolutely rocking my world! I am excited to train in it and share it with you all!
In the meantime I am offering Family Mentoring and Support for parents, Integrative Bodywork for Healing and Movement Medicine for the People through monthly Full Moon dances at Gatt & Co Community Hub!
Welcome! Please, take a look around, and reach out if there is anything I might be able to help you with. Lu
