Welcome to the family Augustus (Gus) 🐶

I love this quote. However to get to this point of loving self unconditionally and being compassionate to self (being kind to self, like how you’d talk to a loved one) for some of us is a work in progress. And that’s ok. 👌🏻

Others may project onto you what they maybe feeling and perhaps you take on their energy which isn’t yours to take on?

I know myself being a past people pleaser and an empath, that I truly feel into another person’s projection. In other words taking on their positive or negative vibe without them even speaking.

What a person thinks of me is their business, not mine to a degree. I can’t control people, places or things. But I can make peace with self on what I choose to take on of others and their perception of me. 🫶🏻

It’s their ‘stuff’ they have to work on themselves and perhaps they might not be ready to accept accountability for their actions. Possibly some people maybe stuck in a rut with their rigid ways of thinking, that they don’t know any better?

There are so many possibilities, the list is endless, in how someone may project their feelings onto another.
An important factor is that you are safe both mentally and physically.

It’s up to us, I believe, as individuals, to set healthy boundaries ( to speak up, to use your voice to be heard in how you wish to be treated) in regards to what you wish to take on of others, or not . 🙌🏻

Part of my assessment for my Masters in Therapeutic Art.

Unit 3, Engaging with Materials.

I created a concertina using various materials, my main material and hero was a feather. 🪶

I’m still enquiring further into my creative expression. I have a resonance with ‘life and its fragility’.

Children creating their very own mindfulness stone they will be using to place on their bellies for when they practice their belly breathing exercises.

Often we are so busy chasing our tail in everyday life that we don’t even realise when we are breathing, for most breathing happens on auto pilot.

Being aware of our breath creates self awareness in how we breathe when we are calm and when we experience distress.

Deep belly breathing helps to soothe oneself and our nervous system.

I’ll be running mindfulness and Art Therapy classes soon for children. If you have any questions message me via Instagram or my mobile 0423 222 422.

Free flow dancing!

A great way to let go of any outside noise that no longer serves us.

Dance is a great way to step into the present moment, to ground.

Most of all to let go and dance like no one is watching!

Wow! What a ride!

•Model & Tv Presenter

•Holistic Beauty Therapist

•Diagnosed with rare appendix cancer

•Good bye to my first baby. I was in service of others for over two decades in the holistic beauty industry. And due to burnout and a health crisis, I couldn’t manage this role anymore. Not to mention the physicality of using my hands in treatments, over time started to show signs of wear and tear.

•Three years later, the launch of Amy Erbacher, Creative Therapy and now studying for a Masters in Therapeutic Arts!

Thank you everyoneKirsten Cunningham Photographer - Weddingsl wishes whilst navigating the cross roads of life!

Tweaks were made to our mirror wall during the week with a lovely visit from my parents who are located in QLD.

I ended up painting one of my sourced mirrors with black acrylic paint from my art room and I will apply a glossy top coat to finish this piece.

I love the wall and how it’s slowly coming together. I still feel this feature wall isn’t quite finished, I’m not going to rush this process. I’m happy to sit and contemplate this look for awhile.

On another note, I’m starting another Instagram page

During my time working within the mental health arena as a clinical art therapist and my masters study in therapeutic arts, it’s important for me to fill my own self care cup and this means being creative within my own home environment and creating a holistic, functional, nurturing and beautiful spaces, for our family to thrive.

My latest project is a cohesive approach to everything I have learnt over the years in the holistic paradigm as a model/ beauty therapist and clincal aromatherapist creating beautiful botanical scent / mental health, clinical art therapist / multi disciplinary artist and interior decorator.

My first project is my home and I will weave these colourful threads throughout my home environment and hopefully one day within your family’s home 🏡

I’m feeling a calling to pursue my interest in learning how to sketch. I’m looking forward to the Easter break to take sometime to be in the present moment and to capture on paper what I see and has meaning to me . ✍️
