Dear Luka, I will admit to cutting and pasting the following from my web site, I am not good at talking about ME, so I hope that this will do
Much Love

Vibrational Kinesiologist, Natural therapist, and Teacher
So who is Sheila
Kennedy-Robinson? She was born Sheila Carran in England in 1950, the eldest
daughter of a two parents who came from totally disparate backgrounds, and with
a family line of Scottish / Irish / Welsh / Manx/ and Romany
heritage.
With her Father’s
unrealised desire of being a doctor being negated by his working class family,
he left school at fourteen and became a hairdresser, putting his age up for the
second world war, he was injured and invalided out of the army and spent his
recuperation time working in an army hospital as an orderly.
Returning to
England
he turned to nursing, and it was here that he met the woman who would become
his wife and Sheila’s mother. Now normally these two people from totally
disparate backgrounds would never have met, however circumstances intervened,
and they married some years later.
Sheila’s father
went on to become one of the first men to be accepted London University
to study as a Sister Tutor, a qualification that enabled him to train nurses
and he continued to expand his knowledge and skills for many years.
A disappointment
as a daughter, not a son, and added into that strong Celtic background the
combination of a psychic Welsh grandmother and a Manx grandfather of Spanish
Gypsy ancestry, Sheila was a challenge to her very Western Medical
parents.
True to her Romany
background she was born with the ability to 'see'. This ability caused her
considerable problems with her parents as a child, including being sent to her
room on many occasions for having an over-active imagination. She was
admonished on a regular basis by her mother and told 'Not to eat biscuits
before you go to bed if you are going to have nightmares.".
The one saving
grace for her as a small girl in all of this was her paternal grandmother
Jessie Carran (nee Gretton), a wonderful Welsh woman, who not only always had a
lap and a hug for a small, very shy granddaughter, but who also understood that
the people she 'saw' those who had passed away were as real to her as
the physical people with whom she came into daily contact.
Despite her
parents medical backgrounds Sheila suffered from Ill health all of her life,
from being given a year to live at age three, and a great deal of difficulty
with her mobility during her growing years, eventually diagnosed with a bone
disease in her legs once the family had moved to East Africa, which kept her
isolated at home when other children her age attended boarding school.
Moving to Western
Australia in 1964, Sheila attended high school in Kalgoorlie before leaving
home at eighteen to begin her journey as a mother, and a mother she is, with
five children in seven years and two quite disastrous relationships, including
a violent schizophrenic alcoholic ex partner, she struggled with her own ill
health as well as the health of two of her children.
When Western
medicine continued to fail not only Sheila, but also her children and supported
by her new husband she turned to alternative therapies almost thirty years ago
in a search for health and well being. This was the start of the long and
interesting journey that has led Sheila to being who she is today.
When Sheila
suffered a fall at work nearly twenty years ago, [1989,] she spent the next
seven years incapacitated and in severe pain, a walking frame, walking stick,
crutches, and a wheel chair, which saw doctors tell her that she would never
walk again, and would die very young.
During this seven
year period Sheila had become a grandmother for the first time, buried her
husband from a severe stroke, had gained four extra children and become ‘Aunty
Mum’ from a new relationship with an old friend, as well as losing three
grandchildren and many other family members in a short space of time.
Now this was twelve
ago, and no one had counted on the sheer determination that had been the
mainstay of all of Sheila’s life. She was determined that she would walk and
walk she did. Badly and with a built up shoe to compensate for a leg which had
become ‘shorter’ through muscle spasms while in the wheel chair she spent time
on crutches and continued her visits to alternative therapists looking for
health.
Much of Sheila’s
knowledge she has gained in her own search for health, health for herself and
her family, the Grandchildren have continued to arrive, and two years ago she
became a great grandmother for the first time.
Sheila has studied
and learnt from many amazing teachers and yet often her most powerful
realisations have been from working with those clients for whom all else has
failed.
Sheila’s clients
are many and varied, scattered around the world and from all walks of life, yet
they all acknowledge that knowing Sheila has made, in many cases, a significant
change in their lives and their health.
Now fit and well
Sheila offers her clients a varied combination of modalities ranging from
Vibrational Kinesiology, [The Dawson Program], Reiki, Spiritual / Aura Healing,
Chakra Balancing, Self Empowerment and Regression therapies, Holographic
Kinetics, Hypnosis, The Children’s Learning Program and
now Vibrational Sound therapy originally known as The Healing
Sounds, and now renamed as Sounds from Source.
Sheila’s journey
into healing included studying Metaphysics and Energetic and Spiritual Healing,
Certificate of Intuitive Mastery, Practitioner of Power Imagery, Chakra
balancing, Hypnosis, Vibrational Kinesiology through The Dawson Program,
and Holographic Kinetics, as well as being a Reiki / Seichem master.
Sheila recently
married Trevor Robinson (another world renowned healer) on the 29th of December
2007.
Currently she is
completing a PhD in Metaphysics through the University of Sedona
as well as creating new programs in conjunction with Trevor as well as
continuing with programs of her own. Together, they have created and are
continuing to create a family of websites devoted to health, wellness and
healing using their very special abilities and insights.
Sheila is the
founder of The Children’s Learning Program, and The Healing Sounds and Sounds
from Source Practitioner Programs, through The Healing Sounds and The
Healing Sounds Academy, and the Sounds from Source Academy
She is a Member of
The International Institute of Specialised Kinesiologists, The Sound Healers
Association, and the International Institute of Complementary Therapists.
Sheila’s courses
have been taught both in Australia
and Brunei,
and it is planned to make them available to a wider, world wide market in 2008
Sheila in addition
to her ongoing commitment to The Sounds from Source , and the Sounds from Source Academy,
is also currently writing a book for Children, who can also 'see'. This
book is intended to help the child understand what is happening for them and
also is a help to their parents, in understanding what their child is
experiencing.
Children are a
passion for Sheila, who believes that if you can help a child you do not have
an adult with a problem.
