Based on the spectacular north west coast of Tasmania, Thirst2Thrive came into existence as a result of Julia's search for answers to her own medical concerns. The diagnosis of an autoimmune disease indicated WHAT was happening but not the HOW or WHY. The thirst for knowledge, for empowerment and the path to wellness...TO THRIVE NOT JUST SURVIVE. After dabbling in essential oils for some 25 years, Julia began to dig deeper and found there was so much more to essential oils than 'lovely smells'. Extensive references throughout history could be found. Multiple examples in the bible and numerous cultures held essential oils in high regard for their medicinal, spiritual and therapeutic benefits. Julia set about making small but significant changes for her and her family. She created ways to reduce the toxic load in the home, developed recipes for safe household products and changes to diet which included these powerful aromatic compounds. Whilst the autoimmune disease remains, Julia and her family continue to celebrate the amazing benefits of nature's bounty with renewed vitality and quality of life. She's passionate about helping others to experience the same remarkable benefits, enjoys travelling alongside others on their wellness journey, and loves to celebrate and applaud achievements big and small!
