Adventures of Paula Ruane
Founder, The Juggling Goddess
My name is Paula Ruane, Bio Energetics Practitioner and run my own business based primarily on helping
the busy, working female of the species.
This is my third career – I have had many jobs and interests but my first business was an interior design
company in Chelsea. My husband, aged 35, had a heart bypass during that time when our 3 children were
under the age of 5 so I switched and trained as a mortgage broker and set up my second business.
When my daughter Katherine was diagnosed with Leukaemia in 2007 aged 22; based on a combination of
the attitudes and opinions of the medical profession, I started researching the whole area of health,
wellbeing and discovered the all-important and essential fact that your genes do not control you, that you
can change your genetics by changing other things – the three “T’s” – Trauma, Toxins and Thought*.
Genes count for less than 5%, closer to 2% of all illness.
So I set up doing something pretty much unheard of. No clients, no track record and no existing model on
which to run my business. I have developed a programme which is a combination of techniques and tools
for resolve and rapid release of the blocks and stress build resilience for today’s market place and fast
paced life. Not talk therapy or counselling but dynamic and simple essential tools.
So what do I do? Hard to explain!
Think of yourself as a computer, usually it is the software, the programme. It becomes overloaded and
eventually will shut down. We are just the same so my work is like a detective’s – finding what causes the
original blocks from trauma, toxins and thought? It could be anything from heavy metals to geopathic
stress, travel, vaccinations but usually there is an emotional component somewhere. Generally speaking,
thought, the medical profession tries to fix the hard-ware.
The heart is 40 – 60 times more powerful than the brain – and sends more messages to the brain than vice
versa – the brain is a chemical factory to produce the necessary response to keep the body out of harm’s
way. And at a deep level, we know this but this isn’t something discussed in the doctor’s surgery.

2. The hardest part still in my work is for people to understand what I do because it is a new emerging
science and is experiential. Yet it can give alternatives and fast acting results to eliminate the need for
prescriptions such as statins and other drugs to help with normal living; getting to sleep, waking up, feeling
happy, damping down extremes of emotions. Also many drugs are one a day for life!
My area is holistic, self-help, preventative and has to be experienced – it is proactive not reactive.
The secret for the growth and expansion of my practice is the same as for the other two businesses I ran:-
Talk to lots of people, give good service (manage expectations) and smile a lot. Not every enquiry
becomes a client but every client benefits from my programme.
My inspiration is seeing profound change in women – in this country women tend to be at the bottom of
the “to-do” list. Women are the enablers, the change-makers and if they aren’t full of healthy energy,
mentally, emotionally and physically, how can they survive the unexpected and the unwanted that this
ever-increasing pace of change brings?
Balancing life. This is part of my programme and something that is essential and key to happy family and
marriage, healthy life and inner peace. Part of my programme includes a mindful technique which I
practice as well as Yoga, gym, socialising, cooking, being curious and asking questions.
To any one starting out in any business – not just this area –the advice is the same – talk to lots of people,
give good service and smile a lot. Have expectancy in your mind all the time and be consistent and
persistent. 95% of everything seems to be wasted but the 5% will give you what you need. Never give up
if you know in the very core of your being that what you have is good, right and benefits all – just keep
going! Network – 70% of my business comes from networking and in particular Women in Business
Network. I was fortunate enough to be able to set up a licenced group of my own which jet-propelled my
business.
My legacy is education – teaching and demonstrating that “our biology is controlled by our mind – change
your mind and you change your biology and your genetics” No-one need be a victim of anything. Life is
work in progress and you never get it wrong and you never get it done – Abraham-Hicks
I have two favourite quotes:-
Tough times don’t last – tough people do!” – Dr Robert Schuller
Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions. Oliver Wendell Holmes
US author & physician (1809 – 1894) - (we can forgive him by using the generic “man’s mind”!) * Dr
Bruce Lipton
