Mavra Root
Focusing Professional & Embodiment Relationship and Intimacy Coach
What is Focusing?
Focusing is an experiential, embodied and evidence-based practice of self-reflection. During focusing, your attention opens up to multiple layers and aspects of living, allowing you to connect with your felt sense, slow down and listen to your body. Mavra believes that we already have the answers within us if we just ask the right questions.
Mavra believes the key to any relationship, including the one you have with yourself, is communication and deep listening. This can be difficult to achieve if our nervous system is stuck in a fight-or-flight response.
Who Mavra Works With
Mavra works with individuals who want to improve their relationship with themselves and address everyday issues that may be holding them back, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, stress and inner criticism. Using somatic techniques she has honed over the past six years, Mavra helps clients untangle their emotions, thoughts and sensations, connect more deeply with themselves and build confidence and healthy relationships with others.
Mavra also specialises in working with couples who want to deepen their relationships and master communication. She understands that many couples struggle because they don’t fully grasp each other’s nervous systems or the ways they learned to communicate during childhood. We don’t choose our partners by accident, but we may not be consciously aware of our choices. Mavra offers a unique, structured, alternative way that teaches couples how to reconnect and deeply understand each other.
Whether you’re an individual looking to better your relationship with yourself or a couple seeking to improve your connection, Mavra offers tailored sessions that address your specific needs and challenges.

What is Reflexology
Reflexology is a therapeutic practice based on the principle that specific points on the feet, hands, and ears correspond to different organs, systems and parts of the body. By applying pressure to these reflex points, a reflexologist aims to promote relaxation, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural healing processes. Reflexology has roots in ancient healing traditions from Egypt, China, and India, but the modern practice was developed in the early 20th century by American physiotherapist Eunice Ingham.

“It is hard to put into words how Mavra helped me, she would probably say I did all the work.
When I met Mavra I couldn’t even really explain how I felt or what I needed. I felt lost, small, and very unhappy. I was always stressed, taking it out on my family. I knew I needed to change I just didn’t know how.
Through Mavra’s techniques and gentle persuasion, I found ways to express myself, I found me in all the noise, what I needed and how to ask for it. I don’t feel small anymore, or lost, I found my voice, literally, I’ve even joined a choir!
Life can be stressful, so much to do, I now know when it’s all getting too much and what to do to bring me back to the important things in life, the present.
The best thing is that I know I’m not perfect, not fixed and will always need to practice the techniques I have learned, and Mavra will always be there if I need her.
Thank you Mavra”
“Mavra skillfully creates a space where your conscious and subconscious minds feel safe. She then offers prompts and suggestions that invite you to listen to aspects of yourself that have gone long unheard, and she does it in a way that is wise, compassionate and supportive.
Your time with her will be a valuable journey that will help you find your way to a home you didn’t know was there.”
