Our Story…
“Sometimes transformation begins simply by recognising that the light is still there…”
Ember Within
“To me, the ember represents the light of the soul—the living spark within us that remains even when everything else appears to have gone dark.
Sometimes that light burns brightly.
At other times, it becomes faint, hidden beneath grief, trauma, exhaustion, responsibility or the weight of experiences we have carried for too long.
There may be times when we fear it has disappeared completely. Yet even the smallest ember still carries warmth, life and possibility.
When protected and nourished, it can begin to glow again. It may rekindle into a stronger flame, illuminate a new direction or transform us completely—like a phoenix rising from the ashes of a former life.
The ember is the part of us that remembers, even when we have forgotten, the light that remains within us even when parts of us have become lost, awaiting to be found again.”
Founder | Rebs Baigent
“Rebs is out of this world... but in it!! She was here to help when we really needed it. Rebs is the salt of the earth, with her feet planted firmly and humbly in it. She is moral, ethical and keeps your confidences in a safe and supportive space so you can work through them. There is a great balance of humor and sincerity to her approach - she keeps it raw and real; it will change your life like it did mine.” - Brian.K (2016)
Our Locations: Two Spaces. Two Different Ways of Being Supported.
Ember Within works from two very different settings within the Illawarra: Ripples Allied Health Consultancy and Calm the Farm.
Each space offers its own atmosphere and way of supporting the therapeutic process. Some people feel safest within the privacy and structure of a dedicated healing &therapies room. Others find it easier to settle when they are surrounded by land, animals and the natural world.
Neither setting is better than the other. They simply offer different ways of meeting you—and different environments in which your healing and self-exploration can unfold. ONLINE Appointments can be accessed from anywhere Australia & International sessions available.
