Hi, nice to meet you. My name is Isabelle Fitzgerald. This started my journey towards practising mindfulness and meditation.
Neuro Transformational Therapy, Mindfulness and Meditation to master anxiety, heal trauma and re-build loving relationships 🧡 Transformative coaching for kids, teens and adults. 👉https://bit.ly/3NIfcQy I personally have been married for more than 25 years and like all partnerships my husband and I have had our ups and downs. The big shift came when I had my two amazing children and encountered debilitating anxiety during my mid-life. What happened next...
I then completed a Mindfulness-Integrated Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MiCBT) program which totally transformed my wellbeing and outlook on relationships and life. From there I became the founder and director of My Peaceful Universe. An organisation devoted to teaching mindfulness and meditation to kids, teens and adults struggling with anxiety to help them find peace, confidence and calm. After running mindfulness & meditation classes locally on Sydney's Northern Beaches for 5 years my program was launched into primary schools and and is now available to educators globally with over 10'000 downloads internationally. Now a Neuro Transformational Coach, I focus on rewiring both the nervous system and the mind, which is key to healing, breaking through anxiety and, rebuilding valuable relationships. As a leading anxiety relief and relationship coach. I passionately share my deep experience helping busy men and women, teenagers and kids struggling with stress and anxiety heal themselves and their relationships with in 6 weeks.

“When you own your breath, no one else can steal your peace.”
– Unknown
A gentle reminder,
your breath is your anchor.
In the middle of the storm,
in the noise, the stress,
Gently come back to it.
One breath.
Then another.
Inhale and exhale.
Softly and slowly.
Feel your nervous system settling.
Your heart smiling.
And remember peace begins with you.
With Infinite Love,
Isabelle 🌺💕🫶

“What’s wrong with me? Why haven’t I healed?”
It’s the sentence I hear most from the women I work with.
And truthfully… I used to ask it too.
But here’s what I’ve come to understand:
There’s nothing wrong with you.
There’s just a younger version of you,
still holding pain from moments she didn’t know how to process,
from stories she couldn’t make sense of.
When you shift the question to:
“What part of me needs healing?”
something softens.
You begin to notice her.
You begin to listen.
And slowly… she begins to feel safe again.
And when she feels safe, you do too.
This is what healing can look like.
Reconnecting with the younger you,
with presence, care, and compassion.
That’s when things begin to shift, gently, quietly…
And you begin to feel more like you again.
If you’ve been in that place,
you’re not alone.
And you don’t have to stay there.
This is the heart of what we do inside Neuro Transformation Therapy.
If you’re ready to explore this work together, the link is in my bio.
At Christmas, we’re often invited to slow down and be more present 🤍
I believe this begins with how we meet ourselves.
With kindness.
With compassion.
With an openness to whatever is here.
When we offer that care to ourselves first,
it naturally flows outward.
Into how we speak.
How we listen.
How we are with the people around us.
This is how presence becomes a gift,
one that begins within
and is quietly offered to others.
Wishing you all Christmas love,
Isabelle 🎄🥰🤍

My heart feels deeply touched today 🤍
I came home to this beautiful surprise, a gift at my door from a client who has walked with me through mindfulness and then into deeper Neuro Transformation Therapy work.
The Christmas bush is so vibrant, the colours filling my home. I smile every time I walk into the room. I genuinely beam. 🥰
To witness her transformation over time has moved me deeply.
Anxiety no longer runs her life.
Her nervous system feels settled and safe.
Peace, steadiness, and self-trust are now how she lives.
Peace is your true nature.
And staying steady amongst life’s storms becomes so much easier once the nervous system has been supported back into safety.
At our core, love is our baseline.
When the old invisible programs, trauma, unhelpful narratives, long-held beliefs, begin to clear, we naturally return there.
And life changes.
These flowers feel like a living reminder of why I love my work.
Why I show up.
Why this matters so deeply to me.
The shifts I witness never stop touching my heart.
Thank you to every single human who has put their trust in me this year.
I appreciate each and every one of you, and it has been an honour to walk beside you.
You are one decision away from returning to love.
And you deserve it.
My home feels filled with gratitude and joy tonight.
Thank you 🤍
Christmas Blessings & Love,
Isabelle ❤️

Have you noticed how quickly the mind goes to what’s wrong?
It seems to happen without effort, replaying worries, scanning for problems, assuming the worst. I did this for years without really noticing. It just felt normal.
What helped me shift wasn’t trying to be positive or pushing thoughts away.
It was noticing where my attention kept going… and gently choosing something different.
Mindfulness really supported me with that. Not as something to master, just as a way of becoming more aware. Of catching myself earlier. Of softening instead of spiralling.
And slowly, my mind learned another option:
possibility.
Not ignoring what’s hard,
just allowing space for something more.
If you notice yourself focusing on what’s not working today, pause for a moment and ask:
what else might be possible here?
Sometimes that small shift is enough. 🌿
With infinite love,
Isabelle 🤍

I’ve been thinking a lot about the little ways we check out…
the extra glass of wine, the endless scroll, the quiet numbing at the end of a long day.
Most of the time, it isn’t because we’re doing anything wrong.
It’s because the old, invisible program inside us is still running,
the one that learned to cope by disconnecting, pushing through, or staying busy.
And that program is powerful… until you start noticing it.
This is why checking in matters.
A gentle pause.
A breath.
A moment to ask yourself,
“How am I? What do I need right now?”
It seems small, but it shifts everything.
Because when you actually notice yourself,
you interrupt that old pattern
and your system doesn’t need to escape anymore.
Those automatic coping loops soften.
Your body settles.
And you start choosing what truly supports you,
instead of what gives temporary relief.
It’s not about perfection.
It’s about slowly, steadily updating the program,
one honest check-in at a time.
This is the work I hold for so many women,
helping them release the unhealthy patterns
that have been running their life for decades,
so they can finally feel calm, safe, and present again.
With Infinite Love,
Isabelle Fitzgerald đź’›
Have you noticed the unhelpful patterns that still try to run your days?
06/12/2025
The last few days, I’ve felt completely out of it.
Nausea, coughing, zero energy and just flat.
I had to cancel work on Friday.
I missed my daughter’s Christmas concert, the one she’s been rehearsing for and so looking forward to.
I missed my sister’s birthday today.
And I had to cancel getting our Christmas tree this weekend… something we’d all been looking forward to.
It’s been a lot.
And what’s interesting is… when you finally stop, all the old stories start showing up, the ones that say you should be doing more, don’t let anyone down, push through.
But this time, I’m not listening to them.
I’m listening to my body.
I’m giving myself permission to rest.
To be still.
To not feel guilty for just being.
We all need that space sometimes, to reset, to breathe, to come back to ourselves.
Our bodies are always speaking… we just get used to ignoring them.
It’s a quiet weekend here. And that feels okay.
If you’ve ever found it hard to pause, even when you know you need to, I’d love to hear…
What helps you slow down and actually honour what you need? 🤍

So many women I work with tell me the same thing…
“I’ve spent my whole life pushing down what I feel… I don’t even know what I need anymore.”
And I get it.
When we’ve been the responsible one, the strong one, the peace-keeper…
it becomes almost automatic to override our own needs.
But something beautiful happens when you pause —
even for one gentle breath.
Your whole system softens.
Your Wise Self comes forward.
And suddenly, there’s space…
space for clarity, space for truth,
space for the guidance that’s always been there.
This is the quiet shift that changes everything…
not by trying harder,
but by gently returning to the truth of who you are beneath all the noise.
With Infinite Love 🤍 Isabelle

Here’s the hard truth most people avoid:
No outside solution can heal your internal suffering.
You can leave the relationship.
Change careers.
Move to the country.
Even pour another glass of wine to soften the edges…
But if the younger parts of you, the ones carrying old wounds, still feel unseen and unsafe…
you’ll keep looping through the same patterns, just in prettier packaging.
Not because you’re too sensitive.
Not because you’re doing life “wrong.”
But because your nervous system learned how to survive, not how to feel safe.
The sadness that visits quietly.
The anxiety that grips your chest.
The moments you reach for something, anything, to take the edge off…
These are not flaws.
They’re invitations.
This is the work I guide my clients through in Neuro Transformation Therapy—
Gently meeting the hidden parts of you with compassion…
and guiding them back to safety, softness, and truth.
✨ You don’t need to be someone new.
You just need to come home to the truth of who you’ve always been.

Hello, my name is Isabelle Mary Fitzgerald, Mindfulness and Meditation has had such an amazing impact on my life and can have an amazing impact on your life too!
First I would love to tell you a little bit about myself, I am a mum with two beautiful children aged 9 and 12. I personally have been meditating for 20 years and started practising mindfulness since completing a Mindfulness-Integrated Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MiCBT) program 11 years ago.
Like a lot of children, I suffered low self-esteem and low self-image issues. In my early 20’s I was diagnosed with Anorexia Nervosa. This was a very difficult time for myself and my family and in my mid 30’s after having my 1st child, I began struggling with anxiety.
Discovering MEDITATION in my early 20’s really helped me manage a lot of my anxiety issues. But it was discovering MINDFULNESS that truly made a significant impact on my mental health transforming my life in every way.
Rivers Story
In 2016 my son River was accepted into the opportunity class at Mona Vale Primary School and started suffering anxiety just before his Year 5 school camp. His anxiety caused shallow breathing and started causing serious trouble with his sleeping. River stopped going to his dance classes, and didn’t want to go to school. As a parent his struggle was heartbreaking. I decided to introduce River to Guided Meditation, as well as Formal and Informal Mindfulness. River learned to observe his thoughts, and, with breathing techniques was able to calm himself at night to sleep.
Thankfully, with the help of River’s school counsellor, who understood mindfulness, and his caring teacher, River conquered his fears, had a great experience at school camp, and went on to become prefect at Mona Vale Public School in year 6.
A Profound Impact
Seeing first-hand the positive effects Mindfulness and Meditation can have on a child’s life I made the decision that it was important to create accessible Mindfulness and Meditation resources for families and teachers experiencing the same struggles I experienced with my own son River.
Today, I am extremely passionate about providing these vital tools for parents and educators in a flexible format, that will greatly benefit all our lives. I am also personally dedicated to teaching Mindfulness and Meditation to children in a fun and engaging way, encouraging children to see life as an amazing adventure with new and curious eyes.
