We cannot change what has happened in the past. We cannot change what was said or unsaid, done or undone, felt or not felt and sometimes we don’t always understand the effect our experiences have on us. Sometimes we know what the effect is but can’t find the solution or even give the feelings and experiences accurate language.
As you approach the final weeks of pregnancy, it’s natural to start thinking about labour and how it will unfold, how your body will cope, and what you can do to prepare. Labour preparation acupuncture focuses on supporting your body in the lead-up to birth…
After a big month in February with the historical conjunction of Saturn-Neptune at 0° Aries, the erosion of a known future and bringing form to a new dream, we enter March 2026 in the midst of Pisces and eclipse season, with Mercury already retrograde in Pisces, revisiting unresolved stories requesting a revisit and re-working….
The start of a new year often brings a quiet sense of reset. A chance to pause, reflect, and gently look ahead.
For many people on a fertility journey, this time can feel layered, hopeful, heavy, and full of unanswered questions all at once.

Organising supplements that help your digestion, sleep and immune system
Staying hydrated and listening to your body’s rhythm
These small steps help you feel your best — so you can fully enjoy your
well-deserved holiday.
Every spring, I see a wave of patients struggling with hay fever; the itchy eyes, blocked nose, and tiredness that make the season feel flat instead of fresh.
Yoni massage is a sacred practice with ancient roots in India and China, designed to support women in releasing stored emotion, trauma, numbness or tension in the pelvic space. It’s not goal-driven or sexual, but a gentle and healing way to reconnect with your pleasure, power and feminine energy. In this blog, I share what yoni massage is, the benefits it can bring across body, mind and spirit, and what you can expect from a therapeutic session.
As winter settles in, it’s time to slow down, nourish deeply, and support the systems that keep us well. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is linked to the Kidneys—the source of our vitality—and the Lungs, our first line of defence against illness.
Here are a few simple ways to stay well this season:
Through Reiki, healing the masculine and feminine energies within us involves creating a harmonious balance between these complementary forces. The masculine energy, characterised by qualities such as strength, assertiveness, and logic, and the feminine energy, embodying intuition, nurturing, and empathy, both play crucial roles in our well-being….Read on
The Nervous System The nervous system is an intricate web that allows our brain to communicate with our body. It’s divided into two main parts: The Central Nervous System (CNS) – the brain and spinal cord, responsible for processing and sending information. The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)– the network of nerves that connects the CNS to the rest of the body…
From a naturopathic perspective, sleep is considered a cornerstone of overall health and well-being, as it plays a vital role in the body’s natural healing and regeneration processes.
Naturopaths view sleep as a necessary restorative period, allowing the body to detoxify, balance hormones, and repair cells and tissues. Sleep is also integral to supporting a healthy immune system, cognitive function, and emotional regulation…

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
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.

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.

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 highly distressed and disconnected couple’s enter my therapy room, it’s quite common for me to observe the distance between them as they take a seat on the couch. Sitting on opposite ends, they sit with their legs and arms crossed, and sometimes, even facing away from each other. I know in my head and heart that my job will be done when they are sitting close to each other, their bodies leaning in to each other, and their legs and hands intertwined.
