In this episode Amanda chats to Anna Hunt, international best selling author, health and wellbeing expert and shaman. A Cambridge graduate and former senior editor at The Mail on Sunday, Anna started to study mental & emotional health and their impact on the body upon developing stress-related health challenges, in her late twenties. This led her to a Jungle in Peru and for almost 20 years since, she has travelled back annually to study one-on-one with her mentor, a shaman based in the Andes. Her work has been featured widely in the international press, including the BBC, The Sunday Times, Harpers Bazaar and other numerous monthly glossies. For the last 16 years she has worked with a global client base of leaders, private clients and corporations. The techniques Anna uses include a combination of Peruvian shamanism, meditation and principles of quantum physics to shift how we think, to become healthier, calmer and more grounded.
