Day 2,821 of becoming an Acupuncturist 👩‍⚕️

I’m in the FINAL MONTH of my Acupuncture training at ! This marathon journey began in 2018 and has been slow going alongside clinic (with a few lockdowns and a course re-structure to slow progress a bit more!)

Here’s me at student clinic, where I’ve been honing my skills and putting all the learnings into practice. But just until 19th Dec!

You can see me for:
✨Acupuncture on Mondays and Thursdays
✨ Kinesiology, Sound Healing and Flower Essence consults @ my lovely Brunswick clinic on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays

Acupuncture is coming to Brunswick in 2026!

And the winners are …🏆

I’m thrilled to be one of ten recipients of the 2025 ATMS Simon Schot Education Grant, awarded by and supported by GSA Insurance. This grant will part-fund my final acupuncture clinical placement subject at

And yes, I did say final subject! I’ve been a little quiet on the socials of late while I finish out my acupuncture training. More on that to come! In the meantime, you can see me for:

🌼 blooms of brunswick 🌼
Spotted on a lunchtime stroll, these wattle flowers are like lil balls of sunshine and joy, don’t you think?

It’s giving ‘Sunshine Wattle’ Australian Bush Flower Essence vibes, even though it’s a different plant. This flower essence supports optimism, joy and the ability to see the beauty in the present. DM if you’d like some!

You can find me, the blooms and all the Australian Bush Flower Essences in Brunswick.

Amethyst is one of my all time favourite crystals 💎

Called ‘zi ying shi’ (true purple stone) in Chinese, Amethyst in Chinese medicine harmonises the Wood and Earth elements - I hold it on specific acupoints to help reduce stress and stress related digestive issues, tension and confusion.

You can also enjoy Amethyst’s calming and peaceful vibes by carrying a piece in your pocket and holding when needed. It does all the good things to support slowing down and meditation! 🧘‍♀️

Updating my first aid training today. So if you get bitten by a snake, rest assured, I’ll bandage you up safely!

But seriously, if you experience an unexpected medical emergency in clinic, I’ve got you covered until the experts arrive 🚑

I’ve had up to date first aid training since 2012. Let’s hope I don’t need to move on from resuscitation dummies!

It’s ✨winter solstice✨ today here in the southern hemisphere. Yep, that’s the shortest day/longest night of the year.

Symbolically, winter solstice represents renewal, rebirth and the return of the light. The energy of today supports slowing down, contemplation and releasing what no longer serves. Step into the new! I think a lil sit down in the sun or nature wander on this sunny winter day would do nicely ☀️

And tags be gone! 💨 6 colour swatches and 3 sample tins later, I found the perfect black (who knew there were so many shades of black?!?). Clinic looks beautiful on the outside again 😍

I love street art and there’s loads of amazing pieces around Brunswick. But tagging is so awful and un-artful. And a right pain to clean up!

Here I am in my online clinic space 🧡 Online sessions are a great option if you’ve moved from Melbourne, can’t get to clinic or just prefer healing from home.

Skype is retiring (I wonder if it’s moving to QLD?! 😝) so its time to move platforms.

We can now meet on Zoom or Teams. I’ll send you a meeting invite on your preferred platform for your next online session.

Online kinesiology is available for existing clients.

See you on the screen soon! 👋

Becoming an Acupuncturist, day 2,568 (!!) 👩‍⚕️

Refining my facial needling skills today at Acupuncture school with .wellness .

One of these points located near the nose is called “Welcome Fragrance”, a very poetic description of its function. It opens the nasal passages, improves breathing and allows all the beautiful (and not so beautiful!) smells in! 🌸

I look forward to bringing the magic of Acupuncture to my clinic in 2026! All going well, I’ll finish training at the end of this year🤞

Happy lunar/Chinese new year! January 29th marks the start of the lunar calendar and 2025 is the year of the Wood Snake 🐍
