REKO RENNIE
Regalia, 2013

About this work

‘Three hand-drawn symbols − the crown, the diamond and the Aboriginal flag − are presented as an emblematic statement about the original royalty of Australia. The crown symbol pays homage to my graffiti roots and to Jean-Michel Basquiat, but most importantly reminds us that Aboriginal people are the original sovereigns of this country. The diamond symbol is emblematic of my connection to the Kamilaroi/Gamilaroi people: like a family crest, it is a part of me. The hand-drawn Aboriginal flag in the form of a graffiti tag pays respect to all Aboriginal people, from environments both urban and remote, and anywhere in between.’

Today can feel complex for many in our community.

We wanted to acknowledge this through art — sharing Regalia (2013) by acclaimed Kamilaroi artist Reko Rennie.

A reminder of the enduring strength, pride, and cultural richness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

We stand for safety, care, and belonging for everyone who walks through our doors.

What’s in my handbag

Ever feel overwhelmed by political news, even from the other side of the world? You're not alone. Many of us experience anxiety and distraction during intense political moments, regardless of where we live. Let's discuss how to manage these feelings and protect our mental health. Read more about my experience here: https://wix.to/rf3ORNu

You don’t need to live in the United States for American politics to affect your wellbeing. My friends and my partner keep sending me Trump videos purely to wind me up and watch my nervous system light up.Many Australians notice feeling more anxious, distracted, emotionally flat, or on edge during...

A little behind-the-scenes business update 💛

If you’re a friend, family member, colleague, or someone who’s crossed paths with The Conscious Health Clinic, this one’s for you. We need you.

Psychology is a bit different to most businesses. Many of the people we help are doing deeply personal work, for ethical reasons, we don’t request client testimonials or reviews related to therapy in the same way other businesses do. Anyone can review us, we just won’t ask you to.

That means a lot of the impact happens quietly, behind closed doors and we’re okay with that. It’s how it should be.

But if you believe in what we’re building a thoughtful, ethical, neuro-affirming, inclusive clinic, one simple way you can support us is by liking, following, or sharing our content, here, or on Instagram

https://www.instagram.com/conscioushealthclinic

It helps us reach the people who are sitting at home wondering if support like this even exists. And we have available appointments in January face to face in Wollongong or via telehealth anywhere you need Australia wide. If you know anyone that needs help now, they can book online at www.conscioushealthclinic.com

No pressure. Just gratitude. And a big thank you for being part of our wider community 💛 Nic

An anti-resolution for 2026

This year, we’re not setting resolutions.
We’re setting boundaries and giving ourselves permission.

Permission to:
• eat without punishment or rules
• rest without guilt
• ask for support sooner
• change slowly
• be inconsistent and still worthy of care

Instead of trying to become someone new, what if 2026 was about meeting yourself more kindly?

About listening instead of pushing.
Noticing instead of judging.
Letting go of the belief that growth has to hurt to count.

You don’t need more discipline.
You don’t need another fresh start.
You don’t need to prove anything to deserve care.

You are allowed to take up space exactly as you are, tired days, mixed feelings, unfinished plans and all.

Maybe this year isn’t about doing more.
Maybe it’s about doing less harm to yourself.

And letting that be enough 💛

Time with family can quietly activate attachment styles:
people-pleasing, shutting down, feeling “too much,” or suddenly back in roles you thought you’d outgrown. None of this means you’re failing it means your nervous system is responding to familiar dynamics.

That’s where support can really help.

Lola Von Stebut, Psychologist at Conscious Health Clinic, works with adults to understand how attachment patterns shape relationships past and present and how to respond with more choice, clarity, and self-trust.

Whether you’re navigating family gatherings, relationship tension, or simply feeling emotionally stretched at this time of year, therapy can offer a grounded space to unpack what’s happening and build healthier ways of relating.

✨ You don’t have to “just cope” through the holidays.

Organising support can make this season and the ones that follow feel very different.
