Trish Biography

Trish Whelan has always been in the business of raising the vibe. During the 1990s and 2000s, Dublin-born Trish was a pivotal figure in the London music industry, running Nellee Nooper’s studio and label for over a decade and travelling between London and LA working with artists including U2, The Smashing Pumpkins, All Saints and Gwen Stefani.

 

As a big-hearted over-achiever in a hedonistic and high-pressure industry, Trish soon found herself called towards shamanism and the healing arts, studying reiki and kundalini yoga in the UK, India and the US. Her healing reiki-infused sounds recorded in Goa proved a hit, soundtracking Deepak Chopra’s TV series ‘The Happiness Prescription’. 

In 2008, Trish was able to further unify her passion for healing with her love of music in running The Joe Strummer Music Foundation, which offers opportunities to aspiring musicians and support to valuable community music projects across the globe. Profoundly conscious that all souls need to heal in order to vibrate at our highest frequency, Trish intensified her kundalini practice during these years and became a kundalini yoga teacher in 2012.

 

For the past decade, Trish has been based in the Balearic Islands, dedicating herself fully to shamanism and teaching kundalini yoga, offering transformational and intensely healing retreats in Ibiza, Menorca and Formentera, and further afield in Goa, Portugal and Ireland. Trish’s compassion, connection, warmth, wit and wisdom have attracted a loyal tribe of clients that range from rockstars to CEOs. On top of her writing and broadcasting commitments, Trish currently offers a limited series of international small-group retreats every year, and develops bespoke healing programmes for private clients. 

“I  believe we all have the power to connect to our own true bliss”

 

In many shamanic societies if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask you one of four questions …

When did you stop dancing?

When did you stop singing?

When did you stop being enchanted by stories?

When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?”
