Home of Self Transformation Reviews 58

I joined the 7-week shadow work programme with HOST in early 2026, and it was a profound experience that led to unique insights and personal change.

The programme itself is incredibly well structured, guiding you through the Seven Laws of Self-Transformation and the chakra system in a way that is both deep and accessible. Each week builds meaningfully on the last, combining teachings, Reiki, and real emotional work. This is not surface-level self-help, this is honest, deep, and impactful work, held in a safe and supportive environment.

The community HOST has created is something special. In the group sessions, people shared openly without fear of judgement, shame, or rejection. That level of trust and acceptance is core to the transformation process and creates the conditions for genuine self-acceptance.

My one-to-one coaching with Cristina was exceptional. From the very first session, I felt a deep sense of trust. She is warm, grounded, genuinely caring, and incredibly insightful. She has a remarkable ability to get to the root of what you’re saying (and sometimes what you’re not saying), and gently guide you towards understanding and breakthrough.

Some shadows need a nudge, and Cristina has a natural way of guiding you through each block with care. It’s no wonder I found myself looking forward to every session.

Through working with the HOST structured approach, and with Cristina’s guidance, I was able to recognise and work through many long-held patterns from my past, making peace with my family. And as a bonus, a deep sense of loneliness I had carried for over 50 years finally lifted.

I’m incredibly grateful for the experience, the insights, and the support I received throughout the journey. If you’re considering HOST or working with Cristina, I would wholly recommend it.

This platform has giving me a whole new identity I can't describe with words how life changing this transformation it's!

I completed 7 week coaching programme with David and then attended the retreat in Hereford. The entire experience has been transformational. 'HOST is a true place of healing and self improvement. My work with David opened up a lot of things I needed to address and inspired and guided me to change my perspective. The retreat was amazing. The classes, food, atmosphere and the people involved made it a hard to describe experience. Something that definitely has to be embodied and experienced. I would genuinely recommend for anyone wanting to get to know one self. 10/10

My time at the HOST healing retreat was nothing short of transformative. HOST didn’t just guide us, they held space in a way that allowed each of us to go deep, peeling back layers we often keep hidden even from ourselves. I've come away feeling full of love, gratitude and compassion on such a deep and profound level. The experience was amazing. I can highly recommend.

An absolutely incredible weekend retreat with HOST. What an amazing community and special way to spend a weekend. Although some of the work is confronting, you are held safely and supported throughout. The accommodation & food were also amazing and super high quality. Id highly recommend 🤍

The most radically deep and authentic shadow work and self development I have ever come across.

These people are really in their heart and really caring. Really committed to bring people to the next level, not just giving them a quick fix. Really loving and safe to be around.

Recommend if you want to live heaven in this lifetime

I just love everything about Host. The loveliest group of people that you will come across. Always such warmth and great support from each and everyone of the coaches.

After 7 weeks of 1:1 of shadow work with Samantha Tune through Home Of Self Transformation.
I can genuinely say this experience has helped me uncover and release layers of stuck emotions, fears and guilt I didn’t realise I had been carrying.
Samantha held a safe place that allowed me to open up , which in the past I have struggled with this .
Face my shadows and begin to heal wounds.
The process helped my reconnect with myself and feel more grounded and open hearted .
I am truly greatfull to Samantha David And Lauren for this safe space for healing and self discovery

I started my journey with Dave and Lauren at host about a year and a half ago.

As soon as I had my first session I felt as though a lot of the weight I was carrying came off my shoulders.

The people at Host are so friendly and non judgmental, they have an incredible skill and ability to help you navigate your feelings and emotions which ultimately helping you to reflect and learn about yourself.

I couldn’t recommend anyone better.

Completing the transformation programme with host has been life changing. When I started the programme I had read lots of books on self development and I believed I was quite self aware, however with support from host I was able to uncover a whole new level of healing.

The group sessions and my one to one sessions with Amanda helped me to uncover subconscious hidden wounds that were ready to heal. During one to one sessions Amanda guided me through the process which enabled me to understand my childhood traumas that had led to unwanted patterns in relationship as an adult. Amanda guided and supported me to change these patterns, which has helped me grow in ways I never could have done alone. Amanda was so knowledgeable and supportive throughout the journey. Amanda held a safe space in the one to one sessions, which allowed me to feel comfortable and confident to open up.

Overall the experience has been life changing and I would recommend host and Amanda as a coach for anyone who wants to heal subconscious wounds and take their healing to the next level.

Cristina is a great coach, she has the most wonderful way in understanding how you are feeling and is able to hold space in such a way that makes you feel safe to venture further.
Her ability to recognise when there could be resistance and guiding you to overcome any fear towards that resistance is liberating.
I felt totally safe and was able to express myself fully, releasing many hidden feelings and visions I had long forgotten about at every coaching session.
At the end of each session Cristina has a fantastic ability to articulate exactly what you need to affirm and move forward to create a new path with intention.

Half way through the Healers Embodiment Program with my amazing coach, Amanda...
This is a truly transformative experience - a journey of self discovery, connection to self and opportunity to relearn how to connect with others and the world around you. It's deep healing that provides the opportunity to address what has been hidden and suppressed in your body through feeling and release. This connects mind, body and spirit to free yourself from old patterns and engage with yourself and others from a feeling and place of acceptance, worthiness and love.
Amanda has guided me so gently and lovingly on this journey providing safety, reassurance, faith and complete trust. She has allowed me to delve deep, knowing I am held in this space, grounded and supported through her intuitive coaching and loving presence. I cannot thank her enough for the connection and generosity of time and spirit, so we go where is needed and what is right for me in that moment. I am not embarking on this journey alone, she is there with me which is allowing me to feel that which was blocking. For anyone considering this program, do it. You are supported, you will be safe, you will feel the benefits.

I had the absolute privilege of being guided by Amanda through the host programme and a powerful healing journey that has been nothing short of transformational. From the very beginning, her warmth, compassion, and deep wisdom created a safe and supportive space where I could truly open up and heal.
Amanda has a unique gift — she doesn’t just guide you, she walks beside you with such grace and understanding, helping you uncover the strength and clarity that was always within. Her ability to hold space, listen deeply, and intuitively know what is needed at each step is truly remarkable.
This journey with Amanda has brought me profound healing, growth, and transformation. I feel lighter, more aligned, and more connected to myself than ever before. She is simply amazing at what she does, and I am endlessly grateful for the care, dedication, and love she pours into her work.
Thank you, Amanda, for changing my life in such a meaningful way. 🤍🤍🤍

I first heard about Amanda’s own self healing journey and instantly knew I had to take this path too!
For years I had been completely burnt out and that exhaustion showed up in my body as physical symptoms, and soon after came the self consciousness. I had always been the “go to” person for everyone else’s problems, holding my family together from a young age while pushing down anything I didn’t want to face.
In January I began the HOST journey, and from that moment Amanda guided me every step of the way. She created such a safe and supportive space where I felt free to open up without fear of judgment. Now, eight months later, I can honestly say this work has been nothing short of life changing. My relationship with myself has transformed, and naturally, so have my relationships with others. This work has become part of me and 8 months on, its still ongoing with no true finish line. Life definitely still brings its hurdles and challenges, but now I have the tools to navigate them with empathy, love, and compassion instead of fear or resentment.
I’m still learning every single day, and often I find myself having breakthroughs and moments of clarity that shift how I see the world and myself. This journey has given me the freedom to feel lighter, more connected, and more present and I know it will keep unfolding in ways I can’t yet imagine. Thank you Amanda and the HOST team I am forever grateful ✨

The past 8 months on the Home of Self Transformation platform have been one of the greatest gifts I’ve given myself at the deepest level.

I was first guided to HOST while attending the MBS event at Birmingham NEC last year. Having gone through a spiritual awakening just over 3 years ago through a 12 Step program, and being in a good place emotionally, physically, and spiritually, I was instantly drawn to the Inner Child and Shadow Work talk on the programme. I had already explored a little of this during my recovery, but I could never have imagined the transformational journey that day would set in motion.

As I listened to David and Lauren, something inside me clicked—the penny dropped. Their authenticity and depth awakened something in me, and I knew I had to find out more. Since then, I have discovered that the programme is beautifully structured, the community is loving and supportive, and the somatic classes are both grounding and energy-shifting.

David and Lauren bring such genuine authenticity, having done the work themselves, and the whole platform carries a real family energy. But don’t be fooled—this is deep, committed work. I have faced my shadow self, released blockages, and embraced change so I can live more freely, without judgment or self-limiting beliefs.

Although I never planned to become a coach, I signed up for the full programme and have been able to move through it at my own pace. Now I’m just one step away from qualifying in somatic practice—something I couldn’t even have dreamed of last year.

I am beyond grateful to everyone who has guided, helped, and supported me on this journey. HOST truly is life-changing.

The coaches of host met me with such love, care and compassion, and knew how to guide me through resolving the pain I've been carrying. I'm feeling SO much lighter and more free. better than any counselling I've ever been to, powerful tools and space holding made me feel safe to release and step forward in life renewed. 100000% recommend, the best investment of money ever.

Home of Self Transformation has been the most impactful program I've ever experienced.

I've served in the military and walked the corporate path — and nothing has come close to what HOST has given me.

This program made me take true accountability for my life and actions. It taught me self-respect, boundaries, and empathy. But more than that, it gave me the inner strength I had been missing for years.

I used to struggle to show up in relationships. For the longest time, I carried the belief that I wasn’t good enough. I was often told I was cold or emotionally shut off — a recurring theme that left me feeling unseen.

Deep down, I knew this was rooted in my upbringing, societal conditioning, and past experiences. But I had no idea where to begin healing.

I tried everything: meditation, breathwork, podcasts, even my own attempts at emotional work. But something always felt incomplete. I still felt disconnected, like there was a missing piece.

Then, by chance, I discovered HOST at the Mind Body Spirit Festival. The moment I spoke with Lauren, the founder, something clicked. I knew this was what I had been searching for.

In just six months with HOST, not only did I become a fully qualified coach and get the opportunity to work at Mind Body Spirit London — my entire life changed.

I feel fulfilled. I feel in control. I’m creating deep, genuine, loving connections. I finally understand and feel my emotions — and know that they’re just that: emotions. They don’t define me.

My perspective on life and myself has completely transformed.

I feel unstoppable.

Wow, this is such a beautiful space to be in right now. I’ve noticed so many changes not just internally, but externally too. My connection with my mum is deepening, my relationship with my daughter is growing, and I’ve landed a job I literally manifested. It’s helped me get a car, a gym membership, and it feels easy. Like everything is finally falling into place.

I feel like I’m finding myself again but on a whole new level. And I can’t thank this space enough. The layers I’ve been peeling back, the soul recognition, the understanding of who I really am it’s powerful. I’ve never felt so seen and heard before.

For so long, I tried to get help and no one really listened. But now I’m in a space where I can trust—trust this journey, trust myself, and trust life again. And that’s changing everything.

Thank you. Truly.

My partner and I joined the HOST program together with the goal of strengthening our relationship and growing individually and it has been nothing short of transformative. The first seven weeks were incredible. We peeled back deeper layers of ourselves, improved our communication and gained a profound understanding of both our own needs and each other’s.

Following that, we entered the Coaches Program, which took things to a whole new level. Not only did we begin training to become coaches ourselves, but the personal journey deepened even further. We started to uncover and truly understand the roots of our triggers and emotional wounds, why they exist and how they show up in our lives. This experience has been life changing for us both, I don't think there's anyone out there who's life can't be changed in a positive way from what Lauren and David teach, what they've created is what I was always searching for on my self growth journey and I am forever grateful for what they have taught and continue to teach me.

Thank you both so much for upgrading my life!
