I have some very big news to share!
We're moving and....
1. We’re Moving!
The clinic, apothecary, and tea & tisane store are moving! After 30 years (with a couple of years gap in Newcastle), I am leaving Paddington and I’m happy. I tried to stay in the neighbourhood, but the rise in rents has now officially priced me out, and I just couldn't find anything close to what we have had. So, I looked outside of the village and found a beautiful heritage building in Surry Hills. It’s larger and it’s on the ground floor. It’s actually only around the corner on Bourke Street, the Taylor Square end, a 10-minute walk from where we are now.
We will let you know the exact date, address, and also share an exciting new design and fit-out for the apothecary & clinic of dreams. I will be sharing videos and live reels over on my Instagram, so do make sure to follow as the design & build unfolds. It's going to reflect the colours of our new website, returning to the look and feel of old world apothecaries, much like my very first clinic, apothecary & store in Paddington.

6. I am handing in my Book Proposal to be considered for publishing!
It is by no means all written, but I have been diligently writing and researching, and it has been the most pleasurable thing to do! I have a working title of 'A Holistic Approach to Healing Persistent Stress, Symptoms & Dis-ease.' This is not the final title, but it captures what's in it. Wish me luck. If I have no luck with this publisher, then I will try again and again, because I believe in it so much. Or maybe I will self-publish... In the meantime, I will keep writing.
A little snippet:
‘A Holistic Approach to Healing Persistent Stress, Symptoms & Dis-ease’ is more than just a guide—it is a lifeline for those who are weary, for those who are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. It offers solace and a source of renewed energy to those weary in their journey of finding no answers, helping you explore a myriad of paths towards health and healing. This book is a compilation of considerations, not prescriptions; it presents possible underlying reasons and contributing factors for why you experience persistent stress, symptoms, and dis-ease, and outlines how to address all these possibilities.
Within these pages, I share the wisdom garnered from 30 years of naturopathic clinical practice, which will illuminate your path from the overwhelming shadows of exhaustion, fear, and despair, to the luminous realms of clarity, hope, and inspiration in your healing journey. It confronts the relentless nature of certain stressors and chronic conditions that burden the human spirit. This is our journey together, during which you will rediscover your inherent healing potential and embrace the undeniable truth that health and healing are within your grasp. With every page turned, we will attentively tend to and harmonise the facets of your being that contribute to your persistent stress, symptoms, and dis-ease, revealing that health and healing are indeed your birthright.
What, then, constitutes a facet of your being? A holistic approach to healing recognises the multifaceted nature of health by embracing the full spectrum of a person’s life. It isn't limited to addressing a single symptom or area; instead, it examines the interplay of multiple dimensions that shape one's overall health. This includes physical well-being, emotional landscapes, professional and personal relationships, creative expression, spiritual and soul connections, environmental influences, self-care practices, medical care, personal growth, and the cumulative effects of one’s heritage and upbringing, as well as the immediacy of the present. A holistic healing paradigm appreciates the unique genetic blueprint of an individual and how it dynamically interacts with both the environment and lifestyle choices—whether at home, work, within the family circle, or in response to the changing seasons and weather patterns—crafting a comprehensive and tailored approach to healing.
Many patients, by the time they come to see me, are navigating the complex and often exhausting landscape of chronic, persistent stress, symptoms, and dis-ease. They are deeply entrenched in an energy-depleting cycle, wearied by the ceaseless quest for healing — a journey marked by trial and error, often met with the disheartening sentiment of 'been there, done that.' My patients are not just fatigued by their symptoms, the persistent pain, and discomfort, but also by the weight of their own narratives and those imposed by others. They find themselves drained by the confusion and lack of support that pervades their quest for well-being. The absence of clear direction amplifies their exhaustion, as does the uncertainty and fear that shroud their path to healing. They are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. My book will provide you with insights and practical strategies and it will become your steadfast companion for those journeying through health challenges. It acts as a beacon of encouragement in times when illness casts a shadow over life, providing wise counsel in doctor's offices with insightful questions and considerations. It stands beside you as a kind and supportive friend, through the uncertainties of different healing modalities. Within its pages is a narrative of transformation, offering you a beautiful pathway to change, to reshape your perception of wellness and to reimagine your story of health and healing.
