BHSc (Nat), Dawson Program Practitioner (Vibrational Kinesiology)

As a degree-qualified Naturopath and trained Vibrational Kinesiologist (Dawson Program Practitioner), I am fascinated by the power of mind, spirit and emotions in healing. Pairing with this, is my upbringing on a small farm in Tasmania, where quite early in life I became enamoured by the concept of “working in line with nature”. This inspired a love for, and early career in regenerative, holistic, organic and biodynamic agriculture. As the seasons of my life unfold, I have an ever-deepening reverence for the “innate intelligence and healing power” of nature, of the human body (being part of nature and ecology) and the inter-relationship between the health of the landscape and the health of the “whole” human being. Culminate these life experiences together (and more!) and you have a naturopath at your service who is interested in all things health, from soil to soul!

Meaning: “Natureal Wellbeing”

Nature

  1. the phenomena of the physical world collectively, including plants, animals, the landscape, and other features and products of the earth

  2. the basic or inherent features, character, or qualities of something… The innate qualities or character of a person.

SIMILAR: essence, sum and substance.

Real

  1. actually existing as a thing or occurring in fact; not imagined or supposed.

  2. (of a thing) not imitation or artificial; genuine. .


Well

  1. in a good or satisfactory way.

  2. in a thorough manner.

  3. in good health; free or recovered from illness.

Being

  1. the nature or essence of a person

Well-being…

  1. the state of being comfortable, healthy or happy.

In summary:

Nature Real has a double meaning. Firstly it encompasses all the elements and the intelligence of nature that holds us and allows for our health. Secondly it acknowledges the inner nature of ‘who we really are’ - living in line with that and honouring this essential and core part of ourselves.
Well Being then, is living in a way that is optimal to the nature and essence of the person, with a natural outcome of a state of being that is happy (joyful), healthy and flowing with the rhythms of life.

Values Guiding Natureal Wellbeing

“If we define healing not merely as curing symptoms but as making and becoming more whole, of bringing out the full potential, then we can include all life forms, and even the earth itself in the category of things worthy of our attention. ”
