For those who don’t know me already, I’m Shelley.
I’ve lived in the beautiful Riverland for the past 30 years with my husband and our beloved dog, Laila. I’m also a proud mum to two incredible young adults.
While I love the natural beauty of the Murray River, I grew up in the coastal town of Albany, Western
Australia, and feel most at home when I’m by the beach.
I’ve always been drawn to nature, whether it’s hiking, exploring new places, or simply tending to my garden. I also love live music, there’s nothing like a good dance to free the soul. Above all, I enjoy spending quality time with my loved one, sharing moments of connection, laughter and presence.
I have always dabbled in meditation, but it became a lifeline during one of the most challenging times of my life. When I was diagnosed with cancer five years ago, meditation and mindfulness gave me comfort, strength, and a way to navigate the emotional toll of treatment and recovery. It helped me heal not just physically, but emotionally and psychologically, guiding me toward a more balanced, stress-free way of living.
At first, I explored meditation for my own healing, but as I deepened my practice, l realised how much it could help others. What started as a personal journey organically developed into a passion for sharing this practice with those around me.
I went on to complete a meditation and mindfulness course, becoming a qualified, nationally accredited teacher and facilitator.
Now, I have the privilege of running local community meditations, creating a safe space of connection, love, and support where all are welcome.
This is how Lotus Spirit Living came to be.
Inspired by the lotus flower rising from muddy waters to bloom into something beautiful, this journey has shown me that no matter how difficult our circumstances, we
have the ability to grow, heal, and blossom.
Lotus Spirit Living embraces all aspects of wellness, offering guidance and support for those seeking balance, inner peace, and transformation.
If you are looking to slow down, reconnect and bring more balance into your life, I’d love for you to join me.
With Love and Kindness
