What an awesome couple of days last week at the ACNEM conference Australasian College of Nutritional & Environmental Medicine

Every speaker was amazing & we all learned so much about “Hormonal Health Across the Lifespan”

So great to see a (big!) room full of passionate practitioners from all modalities, lots of GPs, nat health & allied health pracs all nerding out together 🤓 great convos and networking was had by all!
Integrated health care for the win 🥇🤘🏽

Takeaways;
🌿 As natural health pracs we are very well positioned to help at any stage of the life span as there is SO MUCH we can do & we have so many tools in the tool kit

💩 The microbiome is a KEY PLAYER at every stage (well I already knew that one!) - but great to see it feature so heavily in the education & see so much new research coming out to support that knowledge, that means we can get even more specific & targeted with treatments

💦 ”Reverse osmosis water filters are no longer a luxury, they’re a necessity” Nicole Bijlsma (I also already knew this one as I invested in one last year and it’s the best thing ever)
BUT it’s not just water - environmental toxins are EVERYWHERE & in EVERYTHING and they’re getting worse *DM me for the list of tips to reduce exposures
(I cropped the photo too much to post 🤪 coz I’m such an insta expert 😂)

🥵 MHT (Menopausal Hormone Therapy - previously HRT - excellent rebrand ) is awesome for most women from perimenopause on, not dangerous (mostly due to different forms of hormones - now bio-identical, more to that story but too much to post) AS IS SOY
(whole soy foods - not processed crap) and SOY isoflavone supplements *always seek advice of qualified HP

🤓 and so much more that I’ll be incorporating into clinic practice ..

If your hormones are up the s**t - come see one of us coz there so much we can do!

EDIT ✍️ forgot to mention all my beautiful friends and colleagues that were there too - was SO GOOD to connect and network - love our community 💚💚💚

And special thanks to my super cool roomie 👯‍♀️

What a special week supporting the faculty and students of the latest CPAT cohort (Certificate in Psychedelic Assisted Therapy) delivered by an incredible team of educators across the globe! 🤓👌🏽

The residential retreat was my fave part of the course when I did it in 2024 and it was such a joy to be back as part of the facilitation team 💕..

I can’t speak highly enough of the A team tho - Scott, Lauren, Trudi & Steve - the magic weavers holding such a ‘brave space’ for the group, not just teaching PAT - but also creating space for powerful & transformational personal growth ❤️‍🩹 was such an honour to witness..

( ikr - retreat facilitators always say that - eye roll 🙄😅and it might sound w***y but I s**t you not .. ‘honour’ is the felt experience !)

🍄‍🟫 PAT is important work with such potential for healing, And so is being part of the psychedelic medicine renaissance.. and not just for TRD & PTSD..

(not sure if you’ve noticed but humans as a whole are pretty f$&ked out there in the big wide world 🌎 ) and these medicines & this work fosters connection above all else - connection to self, others, community, land, country, animals, spirit, higher consciousness etc etc and that’s where the healing really starts ❤️‍🩹

If you’re interested in the program check out .au - the next cohort is starting soon

There are many types of Breathwork & they’re not all the hard core huffy puffy crying & yelling & Trauma releasing styles (awesome when that’s what you’re after)

BUT;
Other styles and flows are different, and are more relaxing and grounding… a gentle coming home to self.. 🥰

If you’d like to try the ‘nice one’ 😉 or if you’re already a fan of the gentle style ..

Or perhaps even just looking for a lovely way to kick off the upcoming long weekend,

Join me at 8.30am Sat 6th June @ Mills Beach slsc with .vip for a gentle guided Breath Flow…
*With an optional add on of the beachside wood fired sauna before or after too .. what a freaking awesome combo 👌🏽🤘🏽🔥

This flow is designed to calm the nervous system, ground the body, and create space to reset.

Through intentional breathing, somatic awareness, and moments of stillness, this class helps you slow down and reconnect against the backdrop of the ocean.

Expect a relaxing experience supporting emotional balance, presence, and deep relaxation. Perfect for anyone feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or mentally busy..

All levels welcome, it will be a beautiful session 💕

When life gets hectic, I put balls down before I drop them 😅
And socials is usually one of the first to go — because honestly, I just don’t have the time or mental bandwidth for it.

So while I’ve been a bit quiet on here because life’s been… a LOT 🤪🫨 — there’s also been some pretty incredible things happening behind the scenes.

I’m so excited to share that I’ve joined the faculty at .au for their world-renowned CPAT Program — Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies.

I completed the training myself in 2024, and I’m deeply passionate about this progressive and powerful field of medicine being led here in Australia by MMA (Mind Medicine Australia).

Calling all Naturopaths, Nutritionists, Herbalists, Homeopaths and other natural medicine practitioners — we need more qualified practitioners involved in the rollout of these therapies.

If any of my colleagues in this beautiful community are interested in the July 2026 cohort, DM me. MMA are currently offering a generous discount on the application fee, and payment plans are also available.

I’ll be facilitating some of the online content and co-facilitating the 6-day residential retreat in November in the Yarra Valley.

It’s a pretty extraordinary time to be involved in the renaissance of psychedelic medicines — and one thing I deeply respect about the CPAT training is how beautifully the current clinical landscape is woven together with honouring the traditional and spiritual use of these medicines.

DM me for any info or check out .au, or their website

Three days. Deep work. Big Learning.

Grateful & honoured to learn from the best - also mildly undone & put back together ‘different’ (in a good way!)

Best PD ever 🤩 - Experiential psychedelic integration workshop, With Bessel van der Kolk & Licia Sky
Heartlands Retreat, Byron hinterland.

Nervous system = expanded.
Heart = full.
Brain = still catching up 🤪

So much wisdom & experience shared with such humility & grace (+ humour 😅).

Not to mention the shared wisdom & experience of the 26 practitioners in the group
🤯🦉👯‍♂️👭👫👬👭👯‍♂️👫👬👭👯‍♀️👯👫👬

Thanks , Peter & Jamie - incredible hosts as always …

Living in Fight / Flight is not the only way nervous system dys-regulation shows up.. sometimes it’s disassociation, disconnection, isolation & freeze .. sometimes it’s physical illness or disease ..

Your nervous systems job is to constantly scan your environment asking one question:
am I safe… or do I need to protect myself?

And if stress has been hanging around for a while (which, let’s be honest, for a lot of us - it often has), your body can get a bit… stuck in its ‘response mode’;

Stuck in go-go-go / anxious / wired / hyper vigilance
or
stuck in flat / exhausted / can’t be bothered / freeze
Or
Stuck in physical pain / inflammation / disease state

Even if your mind intellectually understands you’re not in danger - your body can still react & doesn’t know if the perceived threat is real OR imagined OR remembered- IT REACTS THE SAME

These stress adaptation patterns were initially built to protect you - Not to ruin your life, but to keep you ‘safe’

The good news is, your system isn’t ‘broken’ - With the right support & retraining — breath, safe connection, movement, time in nature, slowing the f& down & resting more (!!) etc — your body can start to relearn what it feels like to actually be regulated… & SAFE ❤️‍🩹

And that changes everything.

Save this if it’s something you want to come back to 🤍
