Our thoughts create our reality. So it makes perfect sense to become a master at minding our minds and the thoughts we have.

I do a visualisation technique daily that makes a profound difference in my personal life and my business.

Let me know if you want to know how to do it so that you too can achieve what you desire.

Beautiful girl, when you are finished falling, after you hit rock bottom and watch yourself come apart into a million pieces, no one is staying to help you collect yourself, no one is sticking around to pick through your pieces to decide which parts of you are worth keeping. That’s for you to decide. So stay down for as long as you need to. This is the most important part. Take your time. Pay attention. You already broke. So the easy part is over. Go slow.... I know, you thought the breaking was the most painful chapter. It wasn’t. Turn the page. The next part is much longer. It’s the healing. The rise. The comeback. It’s the birth of the new you. And it’s not easy. But you are strong and brave and worth it. You’ll have to leave a lot of yourself behind, you’ll have to let go of all the parts of you that you’ve outgrown. We’re not making ourselves small anymore. We’re not bending to fit where we don’t belong anymore. Do you hear me? We’re going all in. Count your wounds, every scar ripped open, every drop of blood you bled like a promise, every tear you cried like a bet in the name of crossing your whole heart, your whole soul, was all for this moment. Right here. Right now. You had to hurt like that to get here to this version of you who knows exactly who she is, who she’s not, who she will never be again. Drop the apologies, babe. We’re not sorry anymore for who we are, we’re not sorry for what we had to do to get here, and we’re not sorry for the time it took to learn our worth. Step out of the box of all you were supposed to be, according to everyone who wasn’t you, and walk into the you, who’s comfortable in her own skin. It’s time. You earned it. We no longer wear the expectations of anyone else and we no longer let anyone else decide what we’re worth. Because we know now. We finally know.
And now it’s time to celebrate it.
Get up, babe. It does not hurt anymore.
Now go show YOU what you’re made of.

One of the many things I love about these oils is the multi uses.
Today I’m combining these two power houses for my fruit and veg wash.

My ‘go to’ fruit and vege wash.

Fill the sink with water ( or half fill) add a couple of drops of each add fruit and veg and swish it all around then lay on a towel to dry off.

Yep that’s right.

I get what I can organically and spray free ( you know the difference right?) grown but sometimes what I need isn’t available or sold out and I get regular store bought.

Tip of the day: soak a cut up apple in water with a drop of On Guard to prevent browning. Great school lunch tip and also immune supporting.

This week I’m back to my morning yoga.

As a beginner and a plus size, menopausal woman that comes with its own set of challenges.

Today I was really feeling it in my dodgy knee and shoulders. And even though i listen to my body and allow her to guide me through the poses at her pace, i can support her joints and tight mucles naturally.

🌿 WHY I USE ICE BLUE STICK + COPAIBA WITH YOGA:
✅ Supports aching, stiff, deconditioned muscles.
✅ Helps the body feel safe to move again.
✅ Reduces fear of pain → improves consistency with exercise.

🌿 BEFORE YOGA – Prepare & Protect:

Benefits
✅ Gently warms and awakens muscles.
✅ Reduces joint stiffness common in menopause.
✅ Improves confidence to move without strain.

🌿 How it works:
💥 Ice Blue ingredients increase local circulation.
💥 Copaiba interacts with CB2 receptors (inflammatory response).
💥 Calms overactive pain signalling before movement.

🌿 Body systems supported:
✅ Musculoskeletal (muscles, joints, fascia).
✅ Nervous system (pain perception).
✅ Endocannabinoid system (balance & modulation).

🌿 Why this matters in menopause:
✅ Lower oestrogen = reduced tissue elasticity.
✅ Nervous system is more reactive to discomfort.
✅ Helps prevent “overdoing it” after long inactivity.

🌿 AFTER YOGA – Soothe & Recover:

Benefits:
✅ Reduces post-exercise soreness.
✅ Supports faster recovery.
✅ Calms inflammation flare-ups.

How it works:
💥 Menthol + camphor create a cooling analgesic effect.
💥 Copaiba helps down-regulate inflammatory messaging.
💥 Encourages parasympathetic (rest-and-repair) response.

🌿 Body systems supported:
💥 Musculoskeletal recovery.
💥 Inflammatory pathways.
💥 Nervous system relaxation.

🌿 Why this matters in menopause:
💥 Slower recovery times.
💥 Higher baseline inflammation.
💥 Helps the body adapt positively instead of flaring.

🌿 EMOTIONAL & NERVOUS SYSTEM BONUS:
✅ Cooling sensation reassures the brain: “I am safe”.
✅ Reduces tension held from stress, sleep disruption, hot flushes.
✅ Supports body trust when returning to exercise.

🌿 BEST APPLICATION POINTS:
💥 Knees, hips, lower back.
💥 Shoulders, neck.
💥 Soles of feet (nervous system grounding).

How do you sleep at night?

Are you getting the rest you deserve?

While it’s all too easy to sacrifice sleep to other pursuits, getting good sleep is one of the most essential elements to a healthy life.

Benefits of a good night’s sleep.
During sleep, your body is hard at work rebuilding and repairing itself:

Processing the day
As you rest, your brain prepares you for the day ahead. Sleep affects how well you think, react, work, learn, and get along with others. Your brain actually does a 'brain dump' when you sleep.

Mending blood vessels
Sleep affects your heart and circulatory system.

Balancing hormones
Getting adequate rest affects your hormones and regulates cortisol (the stress hormone) levels produced by the adrenal glands. Are you feeling like you are in constant 'fight and flight' mode?

Immune functioning
Sleep deprivation has been shown to decrease the production of infection-fighting antibodies, meaning you get sick quicker and for longer.

The Sleep Problem
If you’re having trouble getting a good night’s sleep, you’re not alone.
Over 1/3 of Australians and New Zealanders report not getting adequate rest and more than 55% of us need help falling asleep.

Meet the doTERRA Two-Step Sleep System
One Sheep, Two Sheep

Drift off to sleep naturally supported by the ancient wisdom of all-new Valerian essential oil 5mL and Lavender Peace® Stick + Valerian and say goodbye to sleepless nights.

I remember years ago I used to take Valerian root tablets to help me sleep well, now I use TGA approved, natural products like these and am sleeping better than I ever have and it is showing in all areas of my life.

Need support with your sleep routine? Let me guide and support you.

I was explaining this in a wellness consult yesterday and thought I would share with you all. It’s also a reason I use this in my Aromatherapy treatments.

🌿 Why doTERRA recommends diluting essential oils with Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO)

1. Dilution is about skin safety, not reducing effectiveness

Essential oils are highly concentrated plant compounds. One drop can equal the aromatic constituents of large amounts of plant material.

Diluting with Fractionated Coconut Oil:
✅ Reduces the risk of skin sensitivity or irritation
✅ Makes oils suitable for daily use, children, elderly, or sensitive skin
✅ Allows oils to be applied over larger areas of the body

👉 This is especially important with “hot” oils (like oregano, cinnamon, clove) but beneficial for all oils when used regularly.

💥💥💥You are NOT reducing potency — you are enhancing performance💥💥💥

This is the key point many people misunderstand.

Essential oils are potent, not necessarily long-lasting.

When applied neat:
💥 They can absorb too quickly
💥 Evaporate faster
💥 Sometimes stimulate the skin too intensely

When diluted with FCO:
✅ The oil is absorbed more slowly and evenly
✅ The therapeutic compounds are released over time
✅ The oil stays in contact with the tissue for longer

👉 This actually improves bioavailability at the tissue level, rather than overwhelming the skin all at once.

🌿 Fractionated Coconut Oil as a “delivery system”

Think of Fractionated Coconut Oil as a carrier and amplifier, not a filler.

How it supports essential oil absorption:
✅ FCO is made primarily of medium-chain fatty acids
✅ These fatty acids are readily absorbed by the skin
✅ They help “escort” essential oil molecules deeper into tissue

This means:
✅ Better pe*******on
✅ More even distribution
✅ Longer therapeutic contact

Rather than a sharp spike in activity, you get a sustained, gentle therapeutic effect.

💥💥💥Does dilution help oils stay in the tissue longer?💥💥💥

Yes — absolutely.

Research and practical aromatherapy evidence show that:
✅ Essential oils applied neat can peak quickly and leave the skin faster
✅ Oils diluted in a lipid base (like FCO) remain in the tissue longer
✅ The body can engage with the compounds more gradually

This is especially beneficial for:
✅ Pain and inflammation support
✅ Nervous system regulation
✅ Hormonal and emotional support
✅ Skin health and repair

🌿 Why doTERRA specifically uses Fractionated Coconut Oil

Not all carrier oils are equal.

Benefits of doTERRA Fractionated Coconut Oil:
✅ Odourless and colourless (doesn’t interfere with the oil’s aroma)
✅ Non-greasy and lightweight
✅ Long shelf life (won’t oxidise easily)
✅ Doesn’t clog pores
✅ Absorbs quickly but still provides slip and spread

Unlike whole coconut oil:
✅ It stays liquid
✅ Doesn’t go rancid
✅ Doesn’t harden in cooler temperatures

This makes it ideal for:
✅ Roller blends
✅ Daily body application
✅ Facial oils
✅ Children and elderly use

🌿 Dilution actually allows you to use oils more effectively

Another important point:
✅ Dilution allows you to use essential oils more frequently
✅ Encourages consistency (which is where real results happen)
✅ Makes essential oils more accessible and comfortable for everyday life

One drop diluted and applied well can often be more effective than several drops used neat.

I have a beautiful client who is out of action due to c* #!d, lots of coughing and sore throat and is really suffering with it.

I am preparing a soothing blend with raw honey from a friends bee hive. This is taken with hot water or straight off the spoon to sooth the razor blade feeling in her throat and to support her immune system, calm her nervous system and open her respiratory pathways.

Always looking towards Mother Nature first for natural remedies that are tried and tested. And of course only using TGA approved essential oils.
If you want to start your oil journey comment and I’ll support you.

I cant believe another year is coming to a close.. Wow what a lesson it has been.

I have been listening to friends talking about what new resolutions they are putting into place for the new year. (does anyone out there actually follow through on theirs after the first month?)

I decided that yes, there are about 6 or 7 things I would like to do or have, better relationships with people, eat cleaner/healthier, move my body more, expand my business, continue with my study, get my family cook book finished and spend more time in nature.

On top of all that what I really want to do is to show my gratitude and appreciation to everyone and everything that I have in my life, I know that I am truly blessed to have the husband I have, who sees past all my imperfections and I kid you not, even after 33 years together he still tell me multiple times every day that he loves me… The children I adore and am in constant amazement that I helped create such beings.
My parents who I am forever grateful for, and have taught me how precious life is, and with the passing of my darling Dad the reality of deep loss and how important it is to follow our dreams and that our time here is indeed finite.
These last few months the friends who have seen me at my worst and lowest points, particularly in the last 3 months and still love and support me. The ‘friends’ who left me (I thank you for the lessons and I send you off with blessings )

I am healthy, loved, abundant in all that matters, have a roof over my head, live on our dream property and have food on the table.

I really could not ask for anything more.

I am living my life in alignment with my core values and am so very grateful for this.

So this is my goal and vision for 2026.

To be more aware and present, grateful, connect within on an even deeper level, to accept all the challenges life presents me with ease, grace and flow, to be kinder, create space for you to feel safe and supported, continue to expand my knowledge so that I may help support others and to express my appreciation and love for all of you. (are you feeling the love yet?)

Happy New Year to you all, may you all find your path and feel the gratitude and love from within.
Always from within.❤️
We all already have everything we need to thrive. The choice is to accept, enhance and share.
