I'm excited to be in planning mode this Winter... Bachelor of Midwifery in 2019!? Maybe one day I can be as cool as Sheryl Sidery ♡

Quirky meets Broth Bar! Yay, go Soula Star Anise Organic Wholefoods ♡♡♡

Our beautiful beach - always home ♡

Did I really say that?! I think Patty Terri Kikos makes me sounds funnier than I am. Officially Autumn now, what a great time to be in the warm water and enjoy our quiet beach ♡♡♡

2 weekends ago, Baby G and a clad of brilliant mermaids helped and midwifed me to make a deer hide medicine drum. It was the Opening Gathering of the 4 Season's Journey with The School of Shamanic Womancraft, at the Blue Mountains location. This coming weekend I am blessed to sit with many of my mermaid sister's at 1 day workshops in Darlinghurst! If you are interested in the life-altering work of Jane Hardwicke Collings, I hope you come too...

My new deer medicine drum inspired me to craft a drum bag tonight (from a shirt, belt and necklace) ☆ Already looking forward to settling children to sleep tomorrow and crafting a new Grandmother's hand (drum beater/donger) for her ☆ Then taking her out for her first drum this Sunday evening when she is 8 days old, along with all the other recently birthed mermaid drums, via the drum waves ♡♡♡ #schoolofshamanicwomancraft #4seasonsjourney #4sj #bluemountains #openinggathering #beginnings #birthing #karunacentre #cominghometomyself #directionstokaruna

What ARE these creatures?! We saw 4 Species of blue beings at Bronte bogey hole this evening: Bluesbottles Sea dragons (babies and bigger) *round thingies with trim around, size of 10c piece* *small floating being with 4 "limbs" and small black and white details* Some photos below...

My humble respect to the traditional custodians of this land that I am blessed to call home. My children and I loved watching the dances and hearing the brave stories at Yabun Festival today. We then swam in glorious Mahon ocean pool. Gratitude Day indeed ♡ In my early 20's I lived and worked in Alice Springs as an anthropologist with traditional owners. That time was more special than I knew at the time. The women of the land and the land itself healed me of what had been diagnosed as "bipolar" in my mid-teens. Ever since, my appreciation and gratitude for Mother Nature, the mother that connects us all, is what brings me back to my centre and source everyday. I am sorry for what my ancestors did to your ancestors. Please forgive us. Thank you for sharing your home. I am so grateful to live here and that my children get to learn about the survival spirit of our indigenous sisters and brothers. #survivalday #gratitudeday #australiaday #alwayswasalwayswillbeaboriginalland

As my monthly yoni steam brews and I prepare a take-home package for another woman, it occurs to me that this could be the perfect festive season gift for all sisters, aunties and mothers 💞 Contact me to purchase this nourishing gift of herb blends that I have hand picked or are certified organic and non-irradiated.

Mer-baby had her first oceanswim at 8 months 💓

This Wednesday I'll be speaking about Aquatic Education at our local ABA meeting in Bondi. Dangling a carrot can really work for some babies learning to swim 😁 As usual, there will also be wonderful breastfeeding counsellors available to support you ♡ https://www.facebook.com/events/167661337164153/?ti=cl Video by Candice Epthorp
