When one person models empathic behaviour – even in small ways, like making eye contact with a cashier or using a kind tone – it ripples outward. Others mirror it unconsciously.

A single calm, emotionally literate person in a group can shift the whole tone of interaction.

This is a big part of what I teach my healing apprentices. It's a clairsentient (empathic) ability technique where we intentionally evoke within ourselves the mindbody state we are hoping to make stronger in the client. Empathic ability isn't just used in a passive way to sense, scan and gather information... it can be used in a more active, 'radiant' way, where we imprint a way of being into the mindbody of the client via the attuned connection we share.

“The Naturopathic Path: Supporting the Whole Transition”

Menopause isn’t just about declining hormones – it’s a whole-body adjustment. From a naturopathic perspective, we look at the bigger picture: the nervous system, digestion, liver function, bone strength, and emotional wellbeing.

Instead of “replacing” hormones, we help your body adapt to a new rhythm. That can mean fewer (or no) flushes, calmer moods, deeper sleep, and renewed confidence – often with simple, gentle adjustments that work in harmony with your body.

For some women, this approach stands alone beautifully. For others, it complements MHT or other medical treatments. Either way, the goal is the same: to help you feel balanced, grounded, and vibrant again.

“The Myth of ‘Natural’ or ‘Plant-Based’ HRT”

Many women come to me asking about “natural” or “bio-identical” hormones. It sounds lovely – but most of the time, what’s being sold as "natural" is actually compounded MHT (Menopausal Hormone Therapy) made in a lab.

These creams and lozenges are not TGA-approved, and their doses can vary from batch to batch. Despite the marketing, they are not extracted directly from plants. The plant materials (usually soy or yam) are simply starting points for a chemical synthesis process.

The Australasian Menopause Society and Endocrine Society both recommend using regulated, body-identical MHT through a GP rather than compounded versions from private clinics.

If you prefer to stay as close to nature as possible, we can take a truly natural route – supporting your body with herbal and lifestyle care instead.

🌿 Seeing Through Charm: Reflections for Counsellors, Mediators, and Helping Professionals

Lately, I’ve been supporting families through complex separations and noticing a pattern that many of us in the helping professions still struggle to recognise.

When a relationship ends, and especially when children are involved, the story we hear depends a lot on who tells it.
Charismatic, confident individuals often present as the “reasonable” ones – calm, articulate, charming. Meanwhile, the partner who’s been living under that charm’s shadow may appear angry, anxious, or emotionally frayed. It’s easy to misinterpret composure as credibility and distress as instability.

But charm isn’t proof of sincerity.
Charm can be a form of social camouflage – a survival strategy for the manipulative, an automatic bias trigger for the rest of us.
As professionals, we’re trained to stay objective, yet even the most self-aware practitioner can be disarmed by someone who seems pleasant, cooperative, and well-spoken.

We must remember that abuse doesn’t end when the relationship does.
Many women find themselves re-traumatised through the systems meant to protect them – questioned, doubted, or subtly judged as “over-reactive.” The bias runs deep: centuries of stereotypes about “hysterical women” and “unfairly maligned men” still shape our instincts.

It’s not about vilifying men; many fathers navigate separation with integrity and care.
It’s about staying awake to the power of presentation, especially when privilege, position, or charisma make scrutiny harder.
As one client said to me, “He was the hero in every room except our home.”

We can do better – by pausing, listening, and checking for congruence between words and behaviour.
By remembering that calm isn’t always truth, and distress isn’t always manipulation.
And by extending compassion to those who have already endured enough self-doubt for one lifetime.

Empathy and discernment can coexist.
Let’s make sure both are present in the rooms where decisions about families (and futures) are made.

To imagine someone else’s perspective is to think flexibly. The same neural networks that power empathy also power imagination, innovation, and moral reasoning.

Businesses, families, and communities thrive when they can see from multiple viewpoints.

So often, in my Aura Therapy consults, helping a client use their emotional imagination to "see" from new perspectives, is exactly what gets them unstuck. Sometimes what I'm helping them see is themselves, in a new light, with the kind of compassion that changes EVERYTHING for them. Being your own best friend gets you much better results when it comes to reaching your higher potentials, when compared to what I see most people do: berating, abusing and shaming themselves into better performance (and usually for all the wrong reasons).

"The Truth About Horse-Urine Hormones” (with welfare insight)

Yes, you read that right – some of the earliest hormone therapies were made from the urine of pregnant mares. The brand name Premarin literally stands for PREgnant MARes’ urINe.

While effective, this product raised serious ethical concerns due to the way the horses were treated.

To collect the hormones, mares were kept constantly pregnant in confined stalls for much of the year, with restricted movement and limited water to produce concentrated urine. Foals were often sold for slaughter once weaned so the mares could be impregnated again.

Many animal welfare groups have long campaigned against this practice, and thankfully, demand has declined as more humane, plant-derived options have become available.

Today, most modern MHT products are body-identical and synthesised in a lab from plant materials – no animals involved at all.

If you’re unsure what kind of hormone therapy you’ve been prescribed, it’s worth asking your doctor or pharmacist. Knowledge and compassion go hand-in-hand when it comes to caring for your body... and our fellow creatures.

🌿 Facebook, you tricky beast...

Apparently, I can’t message anyone who’s clicked Interested in my Awaken Your Vision consults – not even my husband (who, bless him, is clearly just trying to score more time with me). 💜

So, if this offering caught your attention, please message me directly instead.
Just click here 👉 m.me/omanisahealing

(or tap “Message” on my page).

That way I can find out what you’re hoping to focus on, and let you know when the next round of sessions opens.

These consults are very much about alignment and readiness, not pressure or sales – I don’t chase clients, and I don’t do “discovery calls.” I simply love doing this work, and when it’s the right time, we’ll both feel it.

With love, clarity, and maybe a touch of lavender,
Omanisa 🌸
