How it all started?
Natural Medicine | Naturopathy | Folk Medicine
Since I was a child, I remember our fridge with cut out notes about vitamins and minerals & where you can find them. Also my Mum was always saying “eat herring because they have lots of phosphorus which is good for your brain” , “eat carrots they have Vitamin A which is good for your eyes.’ This definitely made me more conscious that the food we eat can provide us with health benefits. Since then it has been my passion.
The next big step in my Natural Medicine & Naturopathy journey was 13 years ago when I was during my Business degree and working in new solutions for cardiology (eHealth) and my Mum was diagnosed with breast cancer. I dropped everything and moved back to my home town to support my Mum. It was a time when I started intensely researching how I could support my Mum through natural medicine and dietary changes.
My own health issue for many years was Endometriosis. This is something that words can’t explain how painful it can be. How many times I needed to take sick leave from work because of it. Before my first pregnancy I decided that I wanted to prepare my body to be ready to become a Mum. To create a beautiful & healthy space for this future human being. My love for my future child resulted in a massive journey for my body & mind including the miracles of detox, changing eating habits, hormonal regeneration & starting my journey with wonderful Essential Oils. All of this resulted in accidentally healing my Endometriosis FOREVER ! So straight after my labour (2 hours only & no pain killers), I said to the midwife that “I was thinking that will be much mooooore pain”… and she was shocked and siad “No one ever said that!!!” and I replied “I had Endometriosis for most of my life, so labour was a similar experience for me”.
Spinal Injury, 8 weeks in a neck brace, appointments, rehabilitation - yes this was me. After a car accident in 2012 my body and mind went through big trauma that lasted for a really long time - physically and emotionally. Not to mention memory loss at such a young age - I felt like an eldery lady. My memory issues took the longest to recover and I wasn’t even sure if it would return to normal. Then, in 2017, my wonderful friend Jo excitedly called me saying I should try Essential Oils. My first order would be Rosemary oil (as it is well known to improve memory by up to 70% even for people with dementia!) After regular use a few times a day my memory started to improved a lot! I couldn’t believe the improvement each day ! That was how my journey with Essential Oils started and I’m still in love. It is wonderful how they can support us with the healing process on a physical and emotional level.
Another significant reason that pushed me to start my formal education - Food as Medicine (Monash University) & Certificate in Naturopathy was due to personal tragedy - my Son’s vaccine injury. It was a long journey but it was worth all the effort to have his smile back.
So most of my motivation comes from the strong need to support my and my family’s health. Trying to find the most recent and best research about natural solutions to support body natural healing abilities that will actually work.
As difficult or painful as some of my experiences have been, I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn and now being able to support others with their healing journey.
So if you are interested in natural & personal approach
- I’m happy to support you and your Family.
