Introducing Ella 🌸

“I’ve just finished 100 clinic hours with Ally - I was feeling a little rusty as I completed my studies quite some time ago and then had a baby..
I’m leaving feeling super inspired and confident! Ally is a wonderful mentor, she’s taught me so much about plants and people, and especially myself.
I’ve used some of my favourite herbs and also learned so much about many new herbs and the traditional person pictures.

I’m so grateful to Ally for the support, encouragement, inspiration and laughs along the way.

I’m walking away feeling confident in supporting my community with their journey to wellness.”

Thanks Ella, loved having you hanging with myself and the plants 🌱

🌿 Ever wondered what actually happens when you see a Naturopath or Herbalist yet worried about the price?

👩🏻‍🎓For the next two weeks, I’m running Student Clinic in the Blue Mountains
— which means you can have a full consultation with one of our wonderful final-year students for just $20.💃

Every case is discussed with myself and I oversee and approve the final treatment plan.

Prescribed herbal tinctures and/or teas are additional
- usually $15–$44 for approximately 4 weeks of herbal love 🌱

So if you’ve been curious about natural medicine, this is an affordable way to come and experience Plant Love

Bookings via the link in my bio 🌿

Let’s bring the healing power of plants back into our homes, where they belong.

People have asked me why I chose to work with traditional herbal medicine and old-school naturopathy.

🕵️‍♀️The truth is, I chose it because I find it endlessly fascinating.

🙏🏽I am captivated by the observations preserved throughout history—
📖in ancient texts, medical writings, monasteries and convents
🤲🏼the wisdom carried from one generation to the next through
🗣️stories, apprenticeships, and lived experience.

🌀Across cultures, languages and thousands of years, people repeatedly observed many of the same patterns in plants, in people, and throughout nature.
☀️They noticed how the seasons influenced health,
👅 how taste revealed a plant’s actions
🦶🏼how the body, too, speaks in patterns.

🌍 The remarkable thing is these observations still hold true today.

💚The longer I practise, the more I realise that wisdom isn’t about reaching the end of the path. It’s about
continuing to walk it with curiosity.

🍂Every season, every patient, and every plant teaches me something I hadn’t seen before.

📚After more than twenty years in clinic, you’ll still find books open on my kitchen table and beside my bed. I still get excited by a new insight. I still find myself returning to the writings of herbalists from generations before me, discovering something I missed the first time.

To me, that’s the beauty of herbal medicine.

It isn’t about looking backwards.

It’s about carrying forward the wisdom that has stood the test of time while continuing to observe, question, and learn.
It

It is spiritual, it is a responsibility, it’s a journey I take alongside you. 🫶🏼

A little unexpected detour… 🚽
A 24hr bout of urgent 💩 toilet visits 😳 between lying on bathroom tiles in a cold sweat - oh the joys 🥹

I sourced some local plant medicine to get me back on track. 💃
While in the thick of things lying on bathroom floor etc
🥥 Coconut water is the best for hydration - along with simple, filtered of course, 💧 H2O.
🥥Coconut water contains naturally occurring electrolytes to replenish what had been lost during the enthusiastic evacuation process your body does to get the nasties out of you! (Go you self healing machine 💪🏼)

As my appetite returned (always listen to your body)
I focused on settling the tummy with gentle digestive support/restoration

🥃 Ginger shot – to ease nausea - I’m just sipping on this as needed.

🌿 Traditional ginger & turmeric jamu juice – soothe my stomach and support digestion.

🍍 Fresh pineapple juice – for hydration, fresh enzymes and gentle digestive support.

🍉 Watermelon juice – Hydration and antioxidant support, and so 😋refreshing

Tomorrow I’ll get some (even though I don’t particularly like it)
🍈 Papaya juice – great for travellers 💩 recovery. Containing digestive enzymes & providing further gut nourishment.

📝 no more brushing teeth in shower ✅

Sickness always reminds me how much I relish good health.

Tomorrow I’m going to feel a million bucks. I know it. 💋

🤔 Might even find some fermented food to further help recovery.

🕵️‍♀️There are no hard and fast rules, think more in goals - settle digestion, replenish fluids, aid recovery.
These herbs/food certainly do that job but have you used other plant medicines to get back on track while out traveling ?
