We have almost made it! 😂
As I send this to you, we are on a day trip to Coonabarabran for a Corroboree celebration. These events are always an interesting experience as the authentic celebration and sharing of the living culture is truly heart-expanding.

Reflections 💞
Listening to your shared questions and your needs, the following subjects are for you to have some of the answers in writing, so you can revisit them and have the links for certain sequences with easy access.
Our Overall Process with what we do in Yoga with me and why you feel so great after our sessions.
Imagine your body as a flowing river of energy, where the gentle pulse from your skull to your tailbone (the craniosacral rhythm) keeps everything in sync—like a soft inner tide.
This tide lifts your main breathing muscle (the diaphragm), fills your lungs with fresh air, and lets your heart glide smoothly in its sac.
These organs are all linked by invisible energy highways called meridians, especially the “triple warmer” line that hugs your chest and connects to your stomach and spleen to spark digestion.
Science backs this: studies on fascia (the body’s connective web) show that tight spots around the diaphragm or mid-spine can choke blood flow and nerve signals, impacting gut function and stressing the heart-lung team (e.g., research in Journal of Bodywork & Movement Therapies on thoracolumbar restrictions).
Therapeutic yoga is our gentle reset button in one simple pathway with our chest opening sequence. Simple poses that melt tension in the chest, free the diaphragm, and let meridians flow…. and that is just one of our sequences.
The result? Effective breaths, calmer heartbeat, and a happier gut—all riding the same restored wave of energy and as well as supporting biomechanics.
This is why I have coordinated with Linda from The Wellness Path to deliver this workshop below for these specific needs.
Digestive Serenity & Adrenal Balance
A 3-hour healing immersion for anyone facing diverticulitis, IBS, bloating, inflammation, or adrenal burnout from chronic stress and high cortisol.
Learn simple, proven tools to calm anxiety, deepen sleep, quiet restless legs, and ease back, hip, and joint pain—so you can reclaim the energy and ease stolen by discomfort.
Held in Wellness Path’s tranquil studio—softly lit, infused with calming sound frequencies—this session blends gentle therapeutic yoga, guided holistic meditation, and restorative energy practices to:
- Smooth digestive flow
- Lower inflammation
- Recharge your adrenals
- Restore whole-body balance
Fully adaptable—every pose and breath is modified to honor sensitive digestion and low energy. These sequences will the be given to you as a recording so you have more tools available if you have an episode of challenge.
Elevate your renewal: A soothing massage, rejuvenating facial, or energy healing (booked either 10am or 1pm) to deepen relaxation and fast-track healing.

My thoughts on health demise and health recovery…..
I’ve walked the razor’s edge between miracles and surrender—witnessing bodies rise from the brink of collapse, pain evaporating like morning fog, while others whispered the quiet incantation “I’ll never get better,” sealing their fate with every breath.
In three decades of firsthand experience, I’ve learned that the body is not a machine to be fixed but a living symphony: fascia humming like violin strings, the craniosacral tide pulsing from skull to sacrum, the diaphragm dancing with lungs and heart in a rhythm older than language.
When thoracolumbar tension knots this flow, science confirms (Journal of Bodywork & Movement Therapies) that vagus nerve signals dim, gut function stalls, inflammation surges, and adrenals drown in cortisol.
Yet beneath every layer—muscle, meridian, memory—lies the sacred core: transcendent emotions that shift biology.
Hope ignites neuroplasticity.
Certainty steadies the autonomic nervous system.
Faith opens cellular receptors to healing.
Present-time awareness dissolves cortisol loops.
Gratitude floods the system with oxytocin.
And LOVE, the highest vibration, rewires despair into cellular remembrance:
You were and never are broken.
Holistic well-being is not a checklist but a sense of coming home.
A supported heart-opener (our upper back release) over a “blankie” releases the diaphragm’s sigh, our breathing technique, rekindles digestive fire along the stomach meridian, and a guided meditation anchors you in the now, where pain loses its story. You know what we do, and everything has a purpose… even my crazy stories!
Every practice is adaptable—whether you’re tender from IBS, stiff from adrenal fatigue, or simply weary—enter with safety, not strain. I’ve seen restless legs still, sleep deepen, and inflammation fade not because of a pose, but because someone felt hope in their bones for the first time.
This is the alchemy:
When LOVE becomes the medicine, the body remembers it was born to thrive.
You don’t need to believe yet—just show up.
The emotions will do the rest.
Chiropractic: The Core of My Health Journey
Chiropractic isn’t just a modality I utilse for myself and my family —it’s the heartbeat and essence of my entire approach to wellness.
When you ask me about modalities, pathways, or protocols, know this:
Chiropractic is my foundation.
It’s the lens through which I see all foundation healing.
Why? Because Chiropractic empowers you – me to take comprehensive responsibility for your/ my health.
It’s not about waiting for someone to “fix” you.
A great Chiropractor will simply say that they helped you by getting your body doing what it should do, which is healing itself!
The hardest patients who walk through the Practice door (and we still love and care for them!) are the ones begging for a quick fix—they’ve surrendered their power. The next pill, potion, remedy, intervention….
But the ones who thrive?
They understand:
You do the work.
You invite experts into your journey.
You ignite your own innate healing capacity.
That’s the miracle. By keeping your “electrics” in order—your nervous system clear, coherent, and unobstructed—everything else flows.
Energy.
Vitality.
Clarity.
Joy.
When your spine is aligned and your nerve channels are free, you’re not just surviving—you’re radiating.
You’re embodying the living miracle you were born to be.
Just like your car engine has a service, that is the beauty of keeping our nervous system at optimal function. To continue the car metaphor for a moment…. You keep the outside of the car polished, put the best fuel in… but without the electrics, the car will not start. The electrics need to be at optimal function.
In your body the electrics are your nervous system.
That is why I encourage Chiropractic.
Holistic Wellbeing
Cultivating feelings of joy, gratitude, awe, and love—especially by keeping happy mental pictures ready during tough moments—helps calm the body’s stress reaction right away.
Ongoing stress keeps the body in high-alert mode, raising tension that tightens the shoulders, pulls the head forward, and rounds the upper back into a “hunch,” while flattening the natural curve of the neck.
In contrast, turning to joyful thoughts or warm memories quickly eases that pressure, relaxing tight muscles, opening the chest, and restoring upright posture with a gentle neck curve. This shift lifts mood, lowers swelling in the body, strengthens focus and connection with others, and builds greater strength to handle life’s challenges.
When stress drags on, the liver gets overloaded trying to clear excess stress hormones, which can lead to a buildup of harmful substances. This strains the liver, causing it to store extra fat, become inflamed, and work less efficiently at its cleansing job. As a result, toxins back up and affect the whole body—feeding a cycle of tired energy, mood swings, skin issues, digestive trouble, a weaker immune system, and even more muscle tension that locks in the hunched shoulders and straightened neck. For a deeper look, read Why Zebras Don’t Get Ulcers by Robert M. Sapolsky (3rd edition, 2004), a clear and trusted guide on stress and its effects on the body.
So why do I encourage puppy and cat videos as an example….
Watching cute puppy and cat videos triggers a real feel-good rush in your brain by releasing dopamine, the reward chemical that sparks pleasure and motivation, along with oxytocin, the bonding hormone that warms your heart and reduces stress.
The wide eyes, playful antics, and innocent expressions of baby animals tap into our natural caregiving instincts, lighting up the same brain circuits as when we hug a loved one or eat something delicious. This quick hit of positive emotion lowers tension, slows your heart rate, and even eases muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders—helping undo the hunch and forward-head posture that stress locks in.
Just 30 seconds of giggles at a kitten chasing its tail or a puppy wagging in slow motion can shift your body from fight-or-flight into calm and joy, proving that a little online fluff is more than just fun—it’s a mini stress-relief therapy session.
There is method in my madness! 😂
My best wishes and support are with you always!
