Each year I endeavor to commit to investing in myself, my spirituality, my growth, my healing, to continue to upgrade and evolve into the very best version of Kyrie.

Today I’m so proud to share that I graduated from my 200HR Yoga Teacher Training with my Guru /Teacher .heffernan at .

It feels slightly surreal writing that! 🤗

This feels like such a big achievement and a proud moment for me at 52. In my teens and early 20s, I was deeply intrigued by yoga but it didn’t seem accessible to me due to lack of confidence. It also felt out of reach because of my Christian upbringing. I was always curious about it, and greatly admired anyone who had the discipline to practice Asanas, Pranayama, Pratyahara and Dharana.

I could say that I wish my younger self was brave enough to walk into a yoga studio back then, because I know for a fact I would have found the quality of relationships I so deeply craved at the time. Through Yoga my relationship with myself would have also become more kind, mindful and compassionate resulting in less struggle in my life.

But here we are, July 2025, and in this perfect divine timing (of course), my yoga teacher journey officially begins.

I’m so so grateful for the opportunity to have Stew as my teacher. I admire his passion for yoga history and yoga philosophy. The depth of his knowledge and the joy he brings to his classes made me feel I was exactly where I was meant to be. It is clear to me that I had to wait until now to do this, so Stew could be the one to guide me!!

Of course there were many tears, highs and challenges throughout this experience, but also moments of serendipity with new lifelong friendships being formed.

Big congratulations to the 10 other courageous souls who walked this path alongside me. Now let’s get out there and shine our light ever so brightly!

Message me if you would like to go on my class waiting list for when I decide to formally start teaching!!

But first, it’s time to celebrate and embody all of my new knowledge and wisdom. 📿✨🙏

Have you seen our range of natural car diffusers in our shops? Maybe you’ve seen one in a car around town. 😉

These sweet little wooden disks clip onto any car vent and basically diffuse your chosen essential oil into your vehicle. We package each design with a vibrant essential oil blend of eucalyptus, rosemary, lemongrass, melaleuca and peppermint to deodorise and help keep you alert while driving.

The best part - zero toxins compared to the synthetic kind you find in petrol stations. Perfect for humans who find synthetic fragrance in an enclosed space way too overpowering or headache triggering.

Find them on the shelf at Meet the Maker Marion / West Lakes / Adelaide Arcade stores, or our Kindred Self shop online. 🤗

This is the animal rescue I volunteer for - every small donation helps and we and the cats would be extremely grateful if you can donate 1hr of your pay in May to contribute towards our vet bills.

🙏 CAN YOU HELP US STAY AFLOAT ? 🙏

We have been pulling out all stops to try to raise funds to keep the rescue functioning.

Unfortunately the reality is for every $100 we raise, we spend $1000.

We just can’t keep up with the rise in cost of living and how that has affected the rescue.

By the end of financial year our accounts must be at zero. We are currently $11,000 in debt.

This just isnt sustainable . But if we stop helping - what will happen to cats like Polly, Amira and Freydis? They wont make it if surrendered to a kill shelter 😢

One of our lovely volunteers suggested we try the following-

AN HOUR OF YOUR PAY FOR THE MONTH OF MAY

The concept is simple- the average person works nearly 2000 hours a year.

Could you give up one hours pay this May to help us continue to do what we do?

We want to keep saving lives. But we need your help 😿

An hour of your pay can be donated through the methods listed below. Please remember we are a registered charity and your donations are tax deductible.

We have nearly 14000 followers. We know not everyone is fortunate enough to be working, let alone fortunate enough to earn enough coin to get by.

But we can only hope maybe 250 of you can help ❤️.

Thankyou, gloria.

Lucky little paws rescue and adoption.

Something sacred is unfolding… A weaving of sound and spirit, body and breath.

We ~ Kyrie ( ) and Jak (.am.healing_ ) have come together to offer a new and unique experience called ‘Embodied Energy Healing’.

This is a fusion of ancient and intuitive practices ~ sound healing, Reiki, quantum healing, and light language ~ held in a space where your whole being is invited to soften and return to its natural rhythm.

Here, healing isn’t something you chase. It rises from within when you feel safe enough to rest, to receive, to remember.

This work is embodied ~ meaning we’re not just moving energy around you, we’re calling your spirit home to your body. We’re inviting your nervous system to exhale, your emotions to be felt, and your truth to rise gently to the surface.

You don’t need to do a thing ~ just lie down and let the energy meet you exactly where you are.

We hold this space for you with authenticity, deep intention and love, creating a container where you can settle, clear, and remember who you are beneath it all.

If your soul is whispering yes, then we’d be honoured to have you join us.

Our first event is being held on
Friday 9th May, 7pm
Urban Wellness, Port Adl.
This is an intimate group of 6.

May I Be Nurtured

In Mandarin’s glow, warm and sweet, a tender embrace where hearts meet.

Lavender’s touch, gentle and kind, cradles my heart, eases my mind.

Cedarwood’s strength, a sturdy friend, holds me firm, helps wounds to mend.

Bergamot’s light, fresh and clear, lifts the weight of shame and fear.

Chamomile’s calm, gentle and sweet, cradles my heart, brings restful sleep.

Lavandin’s whisper, pure and mild, soothes my soul, my inner child.

Lemon’s zest, a spark of day, guides me softly on my way.

May I Be Nurtured, held and whole, in nature’s blend, my comforted soul.

Available instore at Marion, Adelaide Arcade, West Lakes or online at KindredSelf.com.au

🤍 Small reminders to pause and feel life.

Feeling anxious, scattered, disconnected?

Kindred Self essential oil rollers have become particularly helpful for those who suffer from anxiety. They encourage and remind us to pause and take a moment to check in with self, and help to shift focus from those spiralling thoughts that lead to feelings of helplessness, isolation, self hate, nervousness, overwhelm etc.

As soon as you smell the beautiful aroma and roll it onto your pulse points the plants start to work like magic by calming the nervous system - helping to ease and manage the emotional and physical signs of anxiety or stress.

Gentle yet so effective. The invisible hug that embraces me everyday is such a big part of my health and wellness regime.

Pause and feel life.

*Oil Safety Info: It is recommended to avoid using pure essential oils directly on your skin due to potential skin sensitivities that can develop either immediately or over time. The less we use the easier for our bodies to receive and digest the full therapeutic benefits of the individual concentrated plant essence. Always dilute in a carrier (nut or seed oil) first. Or simply use our roller bottles, they are the perfect dilution for regular use if you are unsure!! 👍🏻

One of the most rewarding parts of hosting my Sound Healing events (aside from the experience itself) is hearing about the clients response immediately afterwards.

Recently, someone described their experience to me with one word - “astonishing”. I was so chuffed! It’s not a word you hear every day, and I love that it captured the essence of something I’ve created.

Sound healing isn’t just deeply relaxing, it also helps to…

✨Quiet a busy mind – bringing a sense of clarity and inner peace
✨ Soothe the nervous system – easing tension and promoting deep rest
✨ Restore emotional balance – supporting a greater sense of calm and well-being

This month, your safe space to truly let go is waiting for you. I’d love to support you through one of my sound therapy offerings.

- Sound Nest / small group meditations
- Sound Connection / Meditation for two people
- Sound Blanket / powerful 1:1 stress release & healing experience

All options are a deeply nurturing experience, designed to recalibrate your nervous system and smooth out any kinks. If you’re intrigued, you’ll find all the details on my website—www.kindredself.com.au. 💫

‘May I Be Inspired’ was our very first blend, and even after 10 years, it’s still a favourite! With its fresh, lemony scent, it’s no surprise - most people simply love the uplifting energy of Lemon!

If you’re picking a gift and not sure what to choose, this is always my go-to recommendation.

Available in a portable mist or roller, so you can enter your own personal aromatic space anywhere, anytime!

Warning: this one can be a little addictive! 😜

Every day is an opportunity to create space for your own heart - to pause, reflect, and nurture yourself with intention.

Today was a particularly special Valentine’s Day at St. Andrew’s Well-being Centre, where I had the privilege of guiding a group of women through a heartfelt exploration of self-care. We delved into the power of intentionally carving out space for ourselves, recognising that true emotional resilience begins when we meet ourselves exactly where we are—sitting with our emotions rather than pushing them aside.

There is profound clarity and healing in leaning into discomfort, allowing us to grow in ways we never imagined.

To close our workshop, we placed one hand over our heart and the other over our solar plexus, repeating three times:

“I love you. I’m here for you.”

A beautiful way to call in what we are committed to, and honour this day of love. 💚
