My Journey & Mission

My journey into healing began more than a decade ago, when my mother’s chronic illness was left unsupported by conventional systems. That moment became a turning point — leading me back to ancestral knowledge and shaping a lifelong commitment to natural medicine, cultural healing, and community wellbeing.

My work today is grounded in the belief that healing is not only physical, but also emotional, cultural, and collective. I have dedicated my practice to supporting individuals and communities often underserved by mainstream systems — particularly migrant, refugee, and diaspora communities across the UK and East Africa.

Professional Practice & Training

I later formalised my training through a Level 3 Diploma in Homeopathy (Distinction) and became a registered practitioner with the Complementary Medical Association (CMA).

In 2023, I completed postgraduate-level studies in Natural Medicine through an independent programme focusing on anatomy, nutrition, and holistic health. Although the institution has since closed, the knowledge continues to inform my integrated approach to natural healing.

My practice brings together:

– Homeopathy
– Herbal and adaptogenic support
– Traditional African, Unani, and Ayurvedic knowledge systems
– Culturally sensitive, trauma-informed care

I continue to work between East Africa and the UK, providing consultations, training, and community-based health education.

Cultural, Literary & Community Contribution

Alongside my healing practice, I am also a recognised Somali poet, cultural practitioner, and contributor to oral tradition and community education.

In 2012, I represented Somalia at the Poetry Parnassus during the London Cultural Olympiad — a global gathering of poets from over 200 nations. My poem Central London, translated by Dr. Martin Orwin, was included in The World Record (Bloodaxe Books), the official Olympic poetry anthology. Thousands of commemorative bookmarks of this poem were distributed publicly at the festival’s opening.

That same year, I co-translated Shakespeare’s Sonnet XII into Somali, performed at the Globe Theatre as part of Sonnet Sunday, a multilingual international event involving over 20 languages. These collaborations were later recognised in the UK’s REF 2014 research case study, highlighting their cultural and academic significance.

Between 2005 and 2012, I contributed to community wellbeing and mental health awareness through Cromer Café in Camden, a space later described in a Goldsmiths University PhD as “a living archive” and “a place of healing.” This work continues to influence my approach to both cultural and therapeutic practice.

My broader work across poetry, oral tradition, and community engagement has been archived and recognised as part of the evolving Somali cultural record in the diaspora.
