Hello, I’m Raine Hilton, co-founder of Good Vibes Holistic Therapies (GVHT), which I run alongside my husband and spiritual partner, Phil.
I have been walking a spiritual and healing path for most of my life. Spirit first made its presence known to me when I was just two years old, and several years later I became aware of my birth spiritual guide, Running Water; I call him Ronnie. He has remained a profound teacher and companion throughout my life, helping me to develop my healing abilities, intuition and connection with the unseen world. I was later introduced to other Spiritual Guides as my abilities advanced.
What began as a natural sensitivity gradually became a lifelong journey of spiritual exploration, professional study, healing and channelled work. Today, I bring together more than twenty years of experience as a Holistic Wellness Consultant, healer, medium, channel and teacher, offering personalised healing and distance attunements for those who feel drawn to explore their own spiritual path.
A Lifetime of Healing
Healing for me is as natural as breathing; it is a part of my life and part of my identity. Even as a child, I could sense the energy of others. When I saw someone in pain or distress, my instinct was to place my hands upon them and try to help them. It was never something I consciously decided to do; I simply responded to their need.
As I grew older, I felt called to understand these abilities more deeply, adding professional training, structure and discipline to my natural intuition. Over the years, I have studied and worked with a wide range of complementary healthcare and spiritual modalities, and continue to do so. I’m committed to ongoing study, bringing you the very best in up to date complimentary healthcare. I firmly believe that you never stop learning. Healing techniques are constantly evolving and so must we as healers.
Each person is unique and I like to approach my healing sessions from this viewpoint, weaving together the perfect blend of energies and techniques. Combining various therapy modalities to form a synergistic blend, which I tailor to suit my individual clients.
I see working with my clients as a sacred spiritual partnership, involving them each step of the way to discover the right approach they need in order to reach that happy healthy place where we all want to be. My work is naturally intuitive, I am a born medium and I allow myself to be guided as to how I can best help others.
Spiritual abilities are something we are all capable of developing over time, so long as we have an open, loving, compassionate heart and the right guidance. I love to be able to guide others a little way along their journey, whether this is through healing or by teaching spiritual development I see this as a two way partnership. I’m a firm believer that we learn something from each person we meet; every encounter is an opportunity for growth and wisdom.

Walking Between Worlds
My spiritual journey has taken me into many different traditions and realms, each adding another thread to the work I do today.
In 2003, I became a Celtic Shaman, drawn to a path rooted in connection with nature, Spirit, the land and the cycles of life. For me, Celtic Shamanism is about remembering that we are part of a much larger web of life and learning to listen to the wisdom of the natural world.
I joined the Order of Bards, Ovates & Druids (OBOD) in 2009; Druidry has become a deeply important part of my spiritual path. Its emphasis on living in conscious connection with the Earth, nature, the seasons, the elements and the wider web of life resonates profoundly with the way I have always experienced spirituality. For me, Druidry is a path of relationship: with the land beneath our feet, the natural world around us, our ancestors, the cycles of nature and the unseen energies that exist alongside our physical world.
It was through my journey into Celtic Shamanism and Druidry that my awareness of the Fey realms began to deepen. As my relationship with nature and the elemental world developed, I found myself increasingly drawn towards the Faery and Otherworld traditions within Celtic spirituality.
Following many years of dedicated work within the Fey realms, I experienced a series of deep trance meditations in which I was welcomed and anointed by Queen Maeve, and was later initiated as a Third-Degree Faery High Priestess. Through this path I have developed a deep connection with Faery guides, elemental spirits and the energies of the Otherworld, through which I have received and developed many Faery healing energies and attunements.
My work with the Ascended Masters and Angels has been equally important. As an Angel Therapist, I have spent many years working with the Higher Realms, experiencing their energies as gentle, compassionate and deeply supportive. I work intuitively with their guidance during healing and have developed a range of Ascended Masters and Angelic attunements and healing sessions inspired by these connections.
The Gift of Channeling
I was sitting writing an article when I suddenly realised that the words flowing onto the page were not coming from my conscious mind in the usual way. I had entered a state of automatic writing and was receiving a message through a connection with Spirit. I had been in 2003 that I would one day become a channel, but experiencing it for myself a little later on still came as a surprise and a deep honour.
Since then, channelled communication has become a central part of my spiritual work. Through meditation, trance and connection with Spirit, I have received guidance, teachings and the foundations for many of the healing systems and attunements that Phil, who began channelling himself in 1998, and I now offer
A Shared Spiritual Journey
My spiritual story is inseparable from my journey with Phil.
We first met through an online spiritual community on MySpace in the early 2000s. I had created a thriving spiritual group called After Dark, where other spiritual seekers came together to explore healing, metaphysics and spiritual development.
Phil and I initially connected through Spirit Walkers and later worked together through his Lux Deus community and he became a member of my own community After Dark. What began as a shared interest in spirituality developed into an extraordinary spiritual partnership.
Through our experiences of channelled communication, telepathy, energy work and deep spiritual connection, we came to understand our relationship as that of Twin Flames. Our experiences profoundly shaped both our personal lives and our spiritual work.
Long before I discovered Reiki, Phil and I were instinctively sending healing energy to one another across distance. We experienced shared dreams, telepathic communication, bilocation and an extraordinary sense of connection even when physically apart. Eventually, we knew we had to meet. That first meeting was intense, familiar and life-changing, and ultimately led to us building a life together.
Today, Phil is not simply my husband but my spiritual partner and co-creator. He is a gifted channel in his own right, and together we have developed and shared many of the unique healing systems and attunements offered through Good Vibes Holistic Therapies, which we opened in 2006.
My Walk-In Experiences
Another deeply significant part of both our spiritual histories is our experience of Walk-In transitions.
A Walk-In is a profound soul transition in which one soul leaves a physical incarnation and another enters, usually around a significant life event or period of transformation. My own experience occurred when I was a child, although my understanding of what had happened emerged much later through past life regression, meditation and channelled guidance where I discovered that I was of Pleiadian Starseed origin.
This discovery opened the door to an entirely new area of spiritual exploration. As I began to understand more about my own Starseed connection, I was drawn to explore the energies, histories and spiritual teachings associated with other star systems and races. Through meditation, and channelled communication, I began connecting with a variety of celestial energies. These experiences have become an important part of my spiritual development and have led me to channel and work with energies from different star systems, inspiring the Starseed healing energies and attunements I now offer. You can read more about our experiences in our Walk-In Transitional Alignment Attunement manual.
We know that experiences of this nature can be difficult to explain, particularly when someone feels profoundly different from who they once were, or finds that their relationship with their past has changed. Our work in this area grew from our own experiences and from wanting to offer a compassionate spiritual perspective to others who may be exploring similar questions.
A Safe Space for Everyone
I believe deeply that spirituality, healing and personal growth should be welcoming to everyone, regardless of gender, sexuality, gender identity, relationship status, background, beliefs or life experience. As someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I understand how important it is to feel genuinely seen, respected and accepted for who you are. I treat every person as an equal and will always respect the name, pronouns and form of address you choose for yourself. You do not need to fit into anyone else’s expectations of who you should be in order to work with me. My role is to meet you where you are, without judgement, and create a safe, compassionate and respectful space in which you can explore your healing and spiritual journey as your authentic self.
