Aromatherapy only came about less than 100 years ago.

While the Egyptians, Chinese, and Indians have used aromatic plants for healing and ritual for thousands of years, the modern practice of Aromatherapy was born in 1935.

French chemist René-Maurice Gattefossé famously burned his hand in a laboratory accident — and instinctively plunged it into a bowl of lavender essential oil. The burn healed remarkably well, sparking his lifelong research into the therapeutic properties of essential oils. 🌿

From that moment, Aromatherapy began to evolve as a science and healing art, influencing practitioners worldwide.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Want to learn how to safely and effectively use essential oils at home? Book a an Aromatherapy workshop with family and friends — discover the science, and the hands-on magic of oils together. I also offer online info sessions but it’s not the same when you can’t physically smell the oils.🐽

What is Yoga? It is not a form of exercise or stretching.

It’s easy to mistake yoga for stretching or fitness — but traditionally the postures (asana) were never the end goal. They’re simply the preparation.

Through asana we purify and strengthen the body, creating stability so we can sit comfortably for pranayama (breathwork) and meditation — the real inner practices of yoga.

The purpose of yoga is not to perfect a pose, but to quiet the fluctuations of the mind and prepare the body to experience Samadhi — that state of pure awareness and unity with consciousness itself.

Yoga is not something we do; it’s a state of being.

🕉️ A pathway from movement to stillness.
From effort to surrender.
From separation to union.

"The discovery of natural law is a meeting with God." – Friedrich Dessauer

From gravity to quantum physics, the laws that govern our universe carry mystery and order. Dessauer’s words remind us that to study nature is also to encounter the divine.

What is the cost of running on empty?

You can be high-functioning… and still be running on fumes.
When we’re constantly “on,” rushing, multitasking, coping — it might look like we’re managing. But underneath?
The body is compensating. The nervous system is strained.
The mind is overloaded.

And over time, the cost builds:
• Burnout
• Brain fog
• Hormonal imbalance
• Chronic fatigue
• Disconnection from joy and creativity

Vedic Meditation offers the nervous system a way to rest deeply — even more deeply than sleep — so we stop draining our reserves and start replenishing them.
Because surviving is not the same as thriving.

🧘‍♀️ Ancient Wisdom. Modern Calm.

✨ If you’ve been running on empty, this might be the pause that refuels you.

"My mind is too busy to meditate"
I hear this all the time.
But here’s the truth:
The busier your mind is, the more meditation can help.
When your mind is constantly spinning — with to-dos, worries, ideas, responsibilities — it can feel impossible to slow down.
But that busyness is exactly why you need stillness. Busyness becomes a bad habit. One hard to shake.
When the mind is overloaded, it struggles to:
• Retain information
• Make clear decisions
• Be creative
• Feel calm
• Feel happy being still

Vedic Meditation doesn’t require a quiet mind to begin with.
In fact, it works because your mind is busy — giving it a chance to settle naturally and release the stress driving that overactivity.
You don’t have to force anything.
You just sit. And the technique does the rest.
🧘‍♀️ Ancient Wisdom. Modern Calm.

Come learn exactly how Vedic Meditation works and why it’s so effective for busy minds. Links in my bio and on my website.

Is Vedic Meditation part of a religion?
This is a question I get sometimes.

And the answer is Vedic Meditation is not religious.
It comes from the Vedas — the ancient body of knowledge that predates organised religion.

From the Vedas, many traditions evolved. Hinduism, in particular, preserves a large amount of Vedic knowledge — but Vedic Meditation itself is not bound to any religion, ritual, or belief system.

You don’t need to change your faith, wear anything specific, or believe in anything outside of yourself.

You don’t need to believe in anything, you just need to be willing to sit comfortably and close your eyes.

🧘‍♀️ Ancient Wisdom. Modern Calm.

Many years ago — it feels like a lifetime ago, yet it’s still vivid in my memory — I had two children under two, had just started a degree, and was starting a new business.
During that time I remember being so sick. I had kidney issues, and I literally had a cough and cold that lasted six months straight.

When I finally saw a naturopath, he asked, “Are you stressed?”
And I said, “No.”
How ridiculous is that?
I genuinely didn’t think I was stressed — because I thought stress meant something huge, like a death in the family or a relationship falling apart.

What I didn’t understand then is that stress builds quietly. It accumulates in the body — from lack of rest, constant pressure, being “on” all the time. And if we don’t have a way to release it, it shows up as illness, burnout, anxiety, or chronic fatigue.

That’s why I now teach Vedic Meditation and prescribe essential oils for people. Because it doesn’t just help you feel calm — it helps your nervous system and immune system heal.

🌿 There’s something deeply satisfying about planting, tending, and harvesting your own food. It’s not just about freshness or flavour — it’s the quiet joy of working with the earth and watching life unfold in real time.

As psychiatrist and gardener Sue Stuart-Smith shares in The Well-Gardened Mind, we’re wired for this kind of connection. Our nervous systems evolved alongside the natural world, so when we return to the soil, we return to ourselves.

Science is now catching up to what ancient Vedic philosophy has always known — that when we live in rhythm with nature, the mind settles, the body restores balance, and life feels lighter and more effortless.

In the garden, those laws of nature are easy to see.
What we nourish grows.
What we neglect withers.
It’s the same intelligence that moves through the seasons, our breath, and our meditation.

Growing your own food — free from pesticides and full of life — is a simple way to live that truth every day.

A calm mind.
A thriving garden.
Both grow from the same source. 💚

🌿 Why Natural Matters

Did you know that many of the synthetic ingredients in your deodorant, perfume, skincare, and even some medications can be stored in your body as toxins?

Our liver and kidneys do an incredible job of filtering waste, but certain man-made chemicals — like phthalates (used in perfumes), aluminium salts (found in many antiperspirants), and synthetic preservatives or fillers — aren’t easily broken down. Because the body doesn’t fully recognise them, they can accumulate in tissues over time, adding to our overall toxic load.

Pure essential oils, on the other hand, are made up of natural plant compounds such as limonene, linalool, and eucalyptol — substances the body can metabolise and eliminate efficiently. These molecules also interact with the limbic system, the part of the brain that governs emotion, memory, and mood — which is why essential oils can calm, uplift, or energise us on a neurological level.

This is why choosing pure, unadulterated oils and natural products makes such a difference. The body knows what to do with nature — because we are nature. 🍃

✨ Simplify. Detoxify. Return to purity.

⚠️ Always seek guidance from a qualified Aromatherapist to ensure you’re using essential oils safely and effectively for your individual needs.
