Ever wondered what the therapeutic nature of sound might be? Dorothea explains in this blog the benefits of sound and why she loves working with it….
”Sound is a potent tool for transformation, guiding us into the mysterious and feeling-based realm of subtle vibrations. It reminds us of the universal song that permeates everything, connecting us to our infinite nature.
Beyond its transcendental impact, sound healing induces physiological transformation. It alters brain waves, transitioning us from stress to flow states. By activating the parasympathetic nervous system, the body enters a state of relaxation, fostering creativity and repair. Whole brain harmony is achieved as music interacts with the entire brain, promoting clarity, sharpness, and heightened intuition.” Dorothea

Adrenal fatigue is showing up a lot with my clients lately so I thought I would jump on here and explain what it is and what the signs are if you're experiencing it.
It's a very common, stress related issue which affects the cortisol levels in the body and leads to a less than diserable state of being. In other words, burn out!
Reiki translates as ‘universal lifeforce energy’ – It is the creative intelligence that keeps us breathing and allows our body and everything on earth to grow. On a basic level, Reiki is unconditional love.
To open the Reiki session, I invite you to share any issues that you’d like to focus on during the healing ~ mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually. You can share as little or as much as you like.

As some of you may be aware, Julie has recently sold “her baby” Prana House to new owner, Rebecca Pugh. After 16 years of developing and nurturing this stunning and spiritual space called Prana House, it felt right for her on a soul level to close the ownership chapter of the business allowing her to follow her path and deepen her spiritual teaching services to the community. Julie will continue to host her yoga teacher training at Prana House and her normal weekly classes, so you will definitely still see her around.
I support women from fertility to motherhood, specializing in the energetics of fertility and postpartum care. My goal is for women to walk out of a session with me feeling totally empowered in the knowledge and awareness of their own capability. We are not taught how powerful we are, and with that, we are not taught the ways in which we can activate this power. The ways we take care of ourselves are simple and intuitive, but we have been steered away from that for a very long time. Power always comes from within, and we must come back to our bodies and learn to take care of ourselves in a way that is sustainable and will ultimately enhance our experience and our vitality.
Here is a sneak peak into my New Guide: BREASTFEEDING ENERGETICS being released July first for purchase on my website. I am so excited to share this intuitive, transformative and joyful wisdom with you.
In these unprecedented times we are all going to be challenged in ways we’d never envisaged. And one of the biggest challenges will be to keep our intimate relationships from imploding under the stress and strain of the new circumstances we find ourselves forced into.

It's a little crazy out there right now and it can feel overwhelming. We don’t want to add to the fear and sensationalism but we feel it is our duty as a public space to take care of our community. We invite you to take a read of one of our natural tips for staying healthy during this time.
Julie has shared a recipe for Thieves Oil, an essential oil blend known to ward off viruses in the ancient days. The benefits of Thieves Oil includes things like boosting immune function, fighting infections and promoting respiratory and cardiovascular health, as well as energizing or uplifting mood.
“When I experience dadirri I am whole again, I can sit on the riverbank or walk through trees. Even if someone close to me passes away. I can find peace in this silent awareness. There is no need for words. A big part of dadirri is listening.” - Miriam Rose Ungummerr-Bauman, Ngangiwumirr Elder
Let’s face it, there are not many relationships where at some point one or both partners haven’t considered whether they should toss it all in and start afresh. Relationships are tricky things, and creating and maintaining a consistently happy union is quite an achievement.
Imagine if you lived purely from feeling. I do not mean from emotion but from feeling yourself, so that you know what feels right in the moment for you. Feeling when to rest, when to move, when to create, when to work or be with others. You simply listened to yourself, and followed the energy that flows through that says “yes”.
One of the most difficult times for many relationships is the Christmas holiday season. On the surface it seems like a time of joy and celebration, where you get to spend quality time and create special memories with your partner and family. But the reality is often quite different. Stress, conflict and tension often accompany the fun times, and can turn the holiday season into a nightmare.
Christmas is the time of year we celebrate our family connection. So it highlights the love and the difficulties as we come together or choose not to. So this Christmas I am offering family healings. I will feel into the overall energy of your family and, with my spiritual healing team, will raise the vibration, then clear and transform unserving energy. All I need is a photo of you and the names of the people in your family. I will give you a report of the healing when complete.
Hello beautiful Prana House Community, lovely to connect with you.
I would love to introduce myself and my offerings.
My name is Georgina & I’m a down to Earth, passionate and holistic beauty therapist and practitioner. Nurturing you and your soul is my mission & passion. I have been in the health and beauty field for over 30 years now and am greatful every day for all my learnings and connections along the way.
My goal is to share ways women can feel supported throughout their pregnancy journey from the wisdom of a Doula. My passion lies in holding space for women to feel truly capable of bringing new life into this world. It brings me joy to see women embrace their fire and bear witness to the power they hold within. I feel that women and families today are not getting the full support that they need. The modern day healthcare system is set up to devalue personal advocacy, emotional care, and the empowerment to trust the innate intelligence within our own bodies. The current system isn’t balanced, in that there is a fear-based focus on a process that is completely natural. This is counterintuitive, as this leads parents further away from inner trust and intuition, pushing them towards being afraid of birth, and feeling they are incapable of trusting such a natural process.
One of the biggest mistakes we make when we enter into a long term relationship is giving up our passion. Not the passion in the relationship (though this is often a by-product), but the thing or things that really touch our soul and give us drive and motivation in our lives.
It is deeply satisfying to understand why we act or think a certain way. It can show us how unique we are, but more importantly for negative patterns it can show us that that we don’t have to be that way. It opens the possibility for change and the ability to see things with fresh eyes.. and we become closer to who we truly are, beyond the influences of our culture, our upbringing or other past experiences.
Meditation has become quite a buzz word in the wellness world as a remedy to the busy mind, but before it became trendy, meditation was something more personal - mostly limited to close knit circles and for practicing yogis. Meditation can be worth its weight in gold: supporting a reduction in stress, improving sleep routines, increasing energy levels, helping us to feel calm, and supporting our general, emotional wellbeing. In a world that is changing and evolving so rapidly, harnessing your inner calm is of the utmost importance, and worth taking the time to explore.
One aspect of my work as a Spiritual Healer is to support teenagers to find greater ease in life. Teenagehood can be a trying time for many. It is a time that we pull away from home, family, friends at a deeper level, and from ourselves. We isolate ourselves physically and emotionally. In the greater scheme all of this has purpose. As teenagers, it is time to separate so that we can take steps to independence. The separation helps us to see who we are and how we stand in the world. But, now more than ever, it is easy to feel lost, isolated, anxious and uninspired. The pressure of social media, body image, access to porn, self harm, access to drugs, and gaming addiction are difficult influences when we are trying to find our way. It leads to being thrown from our centre, a loss of self. Our centre settles our emotions, helps us to feel empowered and inspired and connected to what and who we love. Without it we are easily influenced negatively by others and the world around us.
Thinking of your relationship in terms of a bank account can be hugely valuable in understanding whether your relationship balance is growing or depleting. Every single day we are constantly doing things that either enhance our love and connection (deposits), or reduce it (withdrawals). The key is to understand what constitutes deposits and withdrawals so that we can continue to build our relationship bank.
I wanted to write this article because many clients I see, seek help to understand and untangle relationships, whether they are staying or leaving. What I see is that there are many ways that we transfer energy to each other that is fundamentally a form of dependency. I wanted to share how we carry another’s energy from a spiritual healing perspective, especially our partners, and how we too can put ourselves in their energetic field or body.
I use the term meditation as a state of being rather than the act of sitting down and focusing. A state of meditation begins when a strong mesmerising vibrational feeling settles through the body. The state is all-encompassing. An example may be going for a run that feels hard and effortful until you suddenly feel buoyant and tireless. This then becomes a meditation. There are may ways to find the state of meditation, but the consistent thing that happens is that energy kicks in throughout the body and the mind becomes secondary…
We are such dynamic beings! Our health is affected by all aspects of our life, our internal and external worlds. All of our stress, emotions, trauma and limiting beliefs are held in the body. If left unresolved they sit in our systems and cause a ripple effect, producing difficulties in our lives. Blocking our energy flow, they contribute to physical pain and problems, and keep us stuck in loops of behavioural patterns and reactions.
My favorite part of working so closely with families is that I get to help them see the small ways they can improve their loved ones’ health - especially the kids! I am consistently asked the same questions: How can I make healthier meals for my kids? What’s your number one tip for nutrition? How can I prevent the cold and flu naturally? There are many components to a healthy lifestyle, but I always start with a discussion about SUGAR. It’s in everything! The most loved cereal brands, juice boxes, yogurt - even processed foods that are marketed “healthy” are chock full of that sneaky devil!
We’ve all heard the quote ‘treat people the way you would like to be treated’. At its heart the saying is a positive and worthwhile message. It’s telling us to be respectful and thoughtful to others. So, why is it so dangerous, and why does it lead to the downfall of many relationships?
Various symptoms in our body can come and go, or they may hang around until we get used to them and they feel normal to us. While some symptoms may be little more than an inconvenience, the reality is that they are giving us an insight into what might be going on inside our body. Here is a naturopath’s perspective on 5 common symptoms, and what they might be telling you about your health…
