The Mind-Body Naturopath ~ Mind-Body Healing, Inspiration and The Journey of Being ~ Conversely most physicians treat the body with no regard to the mind or the emotions.

Welcome to my page, I'm Dianna :)

- Naturopath- degree qualified
- Biology of Trauma Practitioner: Mastery Level Certified
- Somatic Healing Practitioner
- Certified Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET) Practitioner. I support people to move through that feeling of something isn’t quite right, the inner chaos, confusion about what’s wrong, why and what to do; hormonal imbalances, tiredness, overwhelm, stress and reactivity; to seek out the causes and support them to feel whole, healthy and calm. I work with people who are tired, burnt out, overwhelmed, stressed, have hormone imbalances, PMS, IBS, post-natal depletion and all the ways in which their body is telling them something is not right. "Most psychologists treat the mind as disembodied, a phenomenon with little or no connection to the physical body. But the body and mind are not separate, and we cannot treat one without the other.”

Dr. Candace Pert


What makes my practice unique is the extensive training that I have undergone to be able to support mind-body healing, and to be able to offer you an approach to healing that is beyond standard naturopathy, yet still encompasses all of the benefits of traditional naturopathic care. If you are interested in a truly holistic approach to healing and wellness, I invite you to send me a message here: https://www.diannamoroney.com/contact . May you find the peace that is your true nature.

Two years in, and I've just completed Somatic Experiencing Intermediate level training 🎉

The first year was about setting up the foundations. Intermediate level is focused on the different categories of trauma.

Ending with collective trauma, when a group of people, society, or community go through trauma that is not resolved. This trauma then becomes woven into the fabric of the culture. It becomes subconscious and passed on through generations.

This has been a big week. The depths I have been touched have moved me. I've seen more. I've felt more. And finally, I am landing. 🤯 😌

St. John's Wort infusion 🥰

Every day I pass by thousands of St. John's Wort plants growing in the wild. I notice my affinity and sense of happiness when I lay eyes on these beautiful yellow flowers.

Here I enjoy a glowing cup of St. John's Wort infusion, hand picked by me and infused within hours. 💛

Happy Sunny Friday 🌞

This is a bundle of joy, also known as St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) ☺️

St. John's Wort is prolific in Canberra. I love that we are surrounded by healing plants, whether we know it or not.

St. John's Wort is known for it's effects on certain types of depression* and also topical applications for minor wounds.

I will show you what I made with this bundle of joy soon 🌼🌿

*always seek advice of your qualified health practitioner before taking St. John's Wort, as it's not right for everyone and can also interact with certain medications

For as long as I can remember I've loved a road trip and the country landscapes. I've taken many an Australian road trip and even a trip through the desert in America 🇦🇺 🇺🇸

Why do I like the desert, the countryside, the beach, the open expanses of seemingly nothingness?

I can feel myself. The distractions and visual pollution of cities and busy roads are gone. It's complete openness of nature, spirit and connection with our source.

Beyond thought, beyond the things of everyday life, here I am and always was.

What makes you feel more like you?

A sunny afternoon reading outside in the shade surrounded by countless trees and a few puffs of clouds in a blue sky 💙

This is my current daily reading. To me healing is not about changing habits and taking supplements and advice from your health practitioners.

We adapt to our environments as we are born into this world as a matter of survival. When our pure and innocent core needs are not met as a small child, we need to adapt, and this can mean closing off parts of the self, shutting down our needs, guarding our hearts, feeling it's not safe to trust, to connect with other people, to even know what we truly want and need. And we may then bring these adaptations into adulthood.

When we were once children these adaptations served us to cope with our environments. As an adult, there can be a relearning of what life is actually like now. A tending to the deeper, most original parts of ourselves. A new relationship with oneself.

To be with people in this space is truly life changing and meaningful work 💗

Somatic Experiencing (SE), I've just completed a week of intensive training at Intermediate level.

This level is all about applying SE to specific categories of trauma. It was a big week.

A few key elements I can share with you:

💛 There are usually defensive and protective responses that didn't get to happen, and the body wants to do them. These incomplete responses remain stuck in the nervous system (NS) and body, and with SE we can watch for them and slowly and safely support the body to do what it wanted to do but couldn't at the time.

💛 The nervous system activates.. and it can deactivate. SE gently guides the NS through these cycles to process trauma in a manageable way, working within the body's capacity.

💛 SE does not support re-enactment of trauma, as this reinforces the pattern. We don't go back and tell the story of what happened in order. We work with a bit at a time.

💛 A lot of repair can happen through relationship. Being seen and with a caring other is often a missing piece when trauma happens.

This week has changed me a little bit more, and I am deeply grateful to be learning this work and bringing it into my sessions with clients 💗

Happy Sunny Sunday Morning 🌞
This morning I made up a blend of herbal tea for myself- a custom formula with intention. I will take this tea every morning and evening to provide consistent natural support to my body.

I happily find my flow when hand-blending herbs, with mindful awareness my body and mind settle into the moment, and when I'm done I have a product that will continue to support me every time I make a cup of tea with it.

With my Soul Herbal Tea range, my heart goes into these tea blends to offer your body support and your mind and soul a place to come home to yourself.

With love on this Sunny Sunday 🌞 💛

I've just completed an intensive week of trauma healing training, and have now completed the beginning level of Somatic Experiencing Training that started last year 🎆

Fleshing out the details of how to unwind trauma in the body and nervous system, working with my own nervous system as well as many others, being challenged and showing up honouring my whole self.

A few takeaways:

💫 Parts of our experience of being human can go off-line, we can gently bring them back online for a more alive human experience.

💫 When healing trauma, we work the edges of it in a slow, safe and contained manner, working within the capacity of the nervous system, giving it time to process what happened and freeing the person of the effects of stuck trauma and the ability to spontaneously make new meaning and feel more empowered.

💫 It's not easy.

The body has an innate wisdom and movement towards healing that we support.

We can feel each other's nervous systems and by regulating our own nervous system this helps to regulate another's nervous system via co-regulation.

This regulation supports the trauma healing process.

✨️ Time and Space ✨️

That's what I want to experience this year.

Not just clock time and empty space, more so a sense in my body. To let go a little more. To feel my deeper self, listen to her, give her the space to exist in this world, to express her heart and become more fully alive 💖

I began my summer holiday ☀️ reflections and new year contemplations with knowing what I wanted and then started to structure my time to live all the elements. But I felt constricted, a subtle message from my body that this isn't actually what I wanted.

So I decided to listen to my body. Time and Space. This is what my body wants. To have the experience of time and space, I cannot fill my schedule with all the lovely things I want to be and do. I know my values and I trust myself to make good choices.

So how these days, weeks, year will unfold will not be foretold by my plans, they will be me checking in with my deeper self, listening, and living.

May your deeper self know that you truly matter, and this is your life to come alive and flourish into 💗

💖✨️✨️✨️💖
