Vitamin Earth Natural Therapies

Vitamin Earth specialises in Neuro Kinesiology, Healthy Hormones and Life Beyond Trauma. During a treatment, our primary investigation tool is you.

We also offer Customised Herbal Consults for perimenopause, menopause, anxiety and burnout. Kinesiology is a holistic healing system, that investigates your overall state of musculoskeletal, biochemical, mental emotional and energetic health. It is an innovative fusion of five element acupuncture and chiropractic, with influences from neuroscience, behavioural psychology and functional medicine. Vitamin Earth specialises in a unique kind of Neurosensory Kinesiology, where we thoroughly address subconscious triggers, the gut brain axis and neuroemotional reactivity. This is particularly effective in treating trauma, acute digestive issues and correcting behavioural patterns. This is combined with the standard Kinesiology techniques, used to balance mind, body, spirit and promote wellness. So throughout the session, we perform a series of muscle tests, to see where stress is reflected in your central nervous system. This allows us to unpack stimuli stored in the body and neurology. This feedback shapes the healing pathways, of your individualised treatment plan. Come to VENT today & let your body do the talking!

When I treat adults with ADHD, I meet some of the best of the best maskers on the planet.

■ Masking means deliberately or unconsciously suppressing or covering up traits associated with ADHD. This can include:

• Over-preparing or over-organizing to hide executive function struggles.
• Mirroring others’ behaviour in social situations.
• Suppressing impulsive thoughts or behaviours even when it's uncomfortable.
• Forcing eye contact or rehearsing conversations to appear "neurotypical."
• Hiding hyperactivity by turning it inward (e.g., anxious fidgeting instead of obvious movement).

■ Why Do People with ADHD Mask?

• To avoid stigma or being seen as lazy, careless, or "too much."
• Due to internalised shame from years of criticism or underachievement.
• To meet social or academic expectations.
• Because they weren’t diagnosed, and masking became a coping mechanism.

■ The Hidden Cost of Masking

While masking can help people "get by," it often leads to:

• Burnout or mental fatigue from constant self-monitoring.
• Anxiety, depression, or other co-occurring conditions.
• A delayed or missed diagnosis, especially in women.
• A sense of identity confusion ("Who am I when I'm not masking?").

■ The most important factors in later life diagnosis, commonly overlooked are:

• Medication is not the answer to all your problems, you have to deliberately redesign your behavioural patterns and work through the deep seeded feelings of shame and worthlessness. Getting the right mentor who understands you, is key.

• You need to recalibrate your nervous system to operate in a smaller range of peaks and troughs so somatic therapies like Kinesiology will give you the most improvement vs hours of talk therapy.

• There will be disassociation between the mind and body and they need to be on the same team, learning to be whole takes time so hang in there and don't give up.

As the second generation Kinesiology elders retire and pass on from this world, I'm left with a sense of anxiety and sadness. In the last 15 years, I have watched something powerful and substantial be reduced to new age whimsy.

The current generation, seem unwilling to really dig in and unlock all the wonder on offer down the mind body rabbithole. Instead, preferring feel good existential tokenism, rather than deep reconnecting.

Modern life is somewhat responsible for this. When you influence and distract people into seeking things that steal their capacity and offer little contentment, they tend to live outside themselves.

Leaving the body burnt out and at the mercy of the accelerating mind. Dissociation just feels like the new normal then.

This makes me wonder, how much ancient knowledge we have lost over the years across all the fields of learning. And more importantly, where does my responsibility begin and end in passing on the keys passed down to me.

At this time of confusion, I would love to hear everyone's thoughts about this, if you feel like sharing.

If it wasn't so harmful to our health, we might even consider it beautiful...

I was reminded the other day of a client who came to me that had all the symptoms of prolonged mould exposure: brain fog, ongoing respiratory issues, endless fatigue, lethargy and joint pain.

He had been a cyclist all his life and couldn't seem to ride his old distances no matter how hard he trained. The muscle testing lead us to the mould and after detox, he was back in the saddle!

Black mould is a toxic fungus that thrives in damp, humid environments.

Health Effects of Black Mould Exposure

1. Respiratory Issues- coughing, wheezing, nasal congestion, and throat irritation. People with asthma or chronic lung diseases may experience worsening symptoms.

2. Allergic Reactions – Black mould can trigger allergic responses, including sneezing, itchy eyes, skin rashes, and sinus congestion.

3. Toxic Reactions – Prolonged exposure to mycotoxins can cause headaches, dizziness, nausea, and even neurological problems in severe cases.

4. Immune System Suppression – People with weakened immune systems (such as the elderly, infants, or individuals undergoing chemotherapy) are more vulnerable to infections from mould exposure.

My 5 Natural Remedies for Killing Black Mould

1. White Vinegar – Undiluted vinegar can be sprayed onto mouldy surfaces, left for an hour, and then wiped clean. It kills around 82% of mould species.

2. Baking Soda – Mix baking soda with water or vinegar to create a paste, scrub the affected area, and rinse thoroughly. Baking soda also helps absorb moisture to prevent mould regrowth.

3. Clove Oil - Add ¼ teaspoon of clove oil to 1 liter of water. Avoid using it undiluted, as it is very strong and can stain surfaces. It contains eugenol, a powerful antifungal compound that helps eliminate mould spores and prevent regrowth.

4. Tea Tree Oil – A natural antifungal, tea tree oil can be mixed with water (one teaspoon per cup) and sprayed onto affected areas. Do not rinse to allowas it helps prevent regrowth.

Stay healthy

I was talking to a friend recently about jealousy. It's such a frowned upon emotion, yet it's the expression that determines if it's healthy or unhealthy. Here is the difference:

🩷 Healthy Jealousy 🩷

This type of jealousy serves as a natural response to potential threats and can even strengthen a relationship when managed well. It includes:

● Awareness of value: Feeling a bit jealous can remind you of how much you care about your partner and value your relationship.

● Motivation for improvement: It can push you to invest more effort into the relationship, fostering deeper emotional intimacy.

● Respect for boundaries: Acknowledging your feelings without acting irrationally encourages open and honest conversations.

● Leads to constructive communication: Expressing concerns in a calm, non-accusatory way helps build trust rather than break it.

❤️‍🩹 Unhealthy Jealousy ❤️‍🩹

This form of jealousy is rooted in insecurity, control, or fear and can damage a relationship. It includes:

● Possessiveness and control: Trying to dictate your partner’s actions, such as who they talk to or spend time with.

● Constant suspicion: Assuming the worst without evidence, leading to accusations and interrogations.

● Lack of trust: Instead of fostering intimacy, it creates emotional distance and anxiety.

● Emotional or verbal abuse: Extreme jealousy can escalate into manipulation, guilt-tripping, or even threats.

💞 How to Handle Jealousy in a Healthy Way 💞

♡ Self-reflection: Identify if your jealousy stems from personal insecurity or a genuine relationship concern.

♡ Open communication: Share your feelings with your partner in a calm and honest manner.

♡ Build trust: Strengthen your relationship by prioritising honesty, reassurance, and mutual respect.

♡ Set healthy boundaries: Both partners should feel secure while maintaining individual freedom.

In short, healthy jealousy is a signal to check in and nurture your relationship, while unhealthy jealousy can be destructive and manipulative.

Little compares to the deep reset we get from exercising in nature. The specific combination of fresh air, natural scenery and layered sounds helps restore balance to the nervous system and supports healthy dopamine activity.

Screen time (especially apps, social media & games) does the complete opposite. They, by design exploit our reward system and unnaturally overload our dopamine receptors.

Today while walking in the Dandenongs 2 in 3 people I saw were on their phones. I couldn't help but think WOW, what a missed opportunity for a well-being deposit.

Screentime and artificial stimulation has become the new norm and like everything moderation is key. This is your reminder to UNPLUG and mindfully embrace what's around you.

Here are five fascinating facts about hormones:

1. Testosterone and Risky Behavior: Testosterone levels can rise in men when they engage in competitive or high-stakes activities, such as holding a gun, playing sports, or even driving fast cars. This hormonal surge is associated with increased confidence, risk-taking, and aggression.

2. Oxytocin and Trust: Oxytocin, often called the "love hormone," is not just about bonding and affection. It also plays a critical role in fostering trust between people. Studies show that oxytocin can make individuals more likely to trust others in social or financial transactions.

3. Cortisol and Decision-Making: High cortisol levels (the "stress hormone") can impair decision-making by reducing cognitive flexibility. However, moderate levels of cortisol can enhance focus and alertness, helping people perform well under pressure.

4. Estrogen and Memory: Estrogen has been shown to play a significant role in memory and cognitive health, especially in women. It enhances neural connections in the brain, which may explain why some women experience memory lapses during menopause when estrogen levels drop.

5. Leptin and Sleep: Leptin, the hormone that regulates hunger and energy balance, is closely tied to sleep. Poor sleep reduces leptin levels, which can lead to increased appetite and cravings for high-calorie foods, contributing to weight gain.

Turns out the guy at the lights in the hectic car isn't a flog after all just low on testosterone 😂

The limbic system wants, what the limbic system wants 🧠

Rather than the colloquial heart, it's actually our limbic system that drives romantic love and sexual desire. The limbic system is a key region of the brain made up of the amygdala, hippocampus
thalamus, hypothalamus, cingulate gyrus & basal ganglia.

❤️‍🔥 Romantic Love engages the amygdala, hippocampus, hypothalamus and ventral tegmental area.

• The amygdala processes emotional experiences and assesses the value or danger associated with a romantic partner.

• The hippocampus consolidates memories of romantic interactions, helping to strengthen emotional bonds over time.

• The hypothalamus regulates the release of hormones like oxytocin and vasopressin, which promote bonding and attachment.

• The ventral tegmental area (VTA) and nucleus accumbens, part of the limbic reward system, are activated during romantic love. These regions release dopamine, creating feelings of pleasure and motivation to seek connection with the loved one.

🫦 Sexual desire relies heavily on the hypothalamus, which regulates hormones such as testosterone and estrogen that drive sexual behavior.

• The amygdala plays a role in sexual arousal by processing stimuli and linking them with emotional significance.

• The reward system of the limbic system, especially the VTA and nucleus accumbens, also contributes to the pleasurable aspects of sexual intimacy.

Together, romantic love and sexual desire are intertwined but distinct processes, both of which depend on the limbic system’s regulation.

I'm not sure my new saying will catch on! Not quite as eloquent as "the heart wants, what the heart wants". It is more accurate though 😜

Next post I will explore the heart's role in romantic love and sexual desire 🥰

Within you, lives a collection of sub personalities, each with its own perceptions, motivations, emotions and rationales.

Each coming forward to play different roles, around different people and in different situations.

When I consider them in relation to any trauma you have experienced, they are very significant and here's why!

The parts or sub personalities that latch onto trauma and monitor your primary safety and stability tend to be the same ones over and over again.

The complicated bit is, those parts create protectors and defenders. And so, before I can access the part that holds the trauma, first I must earn the trust of your gatekeepers.

When this is done, with both the mind and the body, a unique kind of reconciliation takes place. And you arrive somewhere new...beyond trauma.

Today, I shared a special moment with this gorgeous soul. I nearly didn't go via the beach today because of the chilly wind and now I'm so grateful I did.

Seals embody themes of adaptability, intuition, and mystery, largely due to their unique ability to navigate both land and sea. Here are some core spiritual and mythological meanings behind the seal.

Adaptability and Balance

Seals and sea lions symbolise the balance between different realms—land and sea, conscious and subconscious, the physical and the spiritual. This adaptability highlights resilience and the ability to thrive in multiple environments.

Intuition and Emotion

Associated with water, seals are often seen as intuitive and sensitive creatures, representing deep emotional awareness and the mysteries of the unconscious. Many spiritual interpretations suggest that seals encourage people to explore their emotions and intuitions.

Transformation and the Unseen World

In Celtic and Norse mythology, seals are often linked with the concept of transformation, as seen in tales of selkies, beings that can shift between human and seal forms. These legends suggest seals are symbols of hidden potential, transformation, and connection to the unseen, magical world.

Grace and Playfulness

Seals and sea lions are known for their agility, grace, and playful nature. Spiritually, they remind people to embrace joy and play, even amid life’s challenges. In Native American beliefs, sea lions, in particular, are associated with humour, family, and communal life.

Guidance and Protection in Dreams

Seals are sometimes viewed as spirit animals that guide people through dreams and inner journeys. Some cultures see them as guardians, helping individuals safely explore inner depths or guiding them toward self-discovery.

I hear you Mr Seal, thank you for your much needed message from the deep.
