The Birthing of
Elemental Reconnection
Elemental Reconnection is an expression of my soul Song of fostering and supporting health and connection.
​
Since I left home in my late teens, I had been a nomad with many and no homes. Chance brought me to this country and I travelled its vastness for 12 years. Working various odd jobs, studying degrees of natural science, conservation and horticulture, living in 5 different states. The only constant was the choice of remoteness and working and living with the locals. In hindsight I realise that I lived the role of the archetypal outcast on a quest of belonging. However there was one place where I did feel at home - Nature.
In 2013 I followed an inspired spark of intuition all the way from the Northern Territory to Kalang to study and practice Shiatsu and Remedial Massage. From the very beginning I was thrown in the deep end, a common experience for many health practitioners and healers. Some of my first patients were in the palliative stages of their healing journey. A deeply humbling experience that touched my very soul and motivated me in a way, I can't even express. And I followed the serendipitous pointers of the universe into exploring the emotional and mental depths of pain and health issues.
During 2018 and 2019 I have contracted for STARTTS a non-for-profit organisation that provides culturally relevant psychological treatment and support, and community interventions to help people and communities heal the scars of refugee trauma. My learning during this time has been tremendous, and it developed my tuning into the felt-sense of trauma in the physical and energetic body in unexpected ways. It took me a long time to really understand and make sense of what resonated so deeply.​
After a sabbatical second half of 2020, I found myself called to expand beyond the shiatsu mats and massage table. Coming full circle in the big spiral of life - Earthing my vocation into the safe fold of mother nature. Exploring the rich field of nature-based, Ancestral memory evoked Personal and Cultural Change.
people from all walks of life find their way into my retreats or clinic, sharing their path to reclaim balance and experience healing. I am honoured by the trust and feel blessed in supporting each person, believing that the univervse has brought us together in reciprocity at this time and place in our journey. the giving becomes receiving and the receiving becomes a given gift.

My vision is to invite beautiful beings like you
​into healing connection
connection with themselves - with nature - with all relations.
The 5-Element Medicine Theory on which I mostly base my treatments, has been derived from nature awareness and observation thousands of years ago. In our modern day and age it seems of utter importance to reconnect to these origins. This concept is rooted in the inter-connectedness of all things. It resonates with the realisation that our health and well-being is intimately connected with our natural surrounds and utterly dependent on the health and well-being of our planet.
It is a natural step to connect with source directly with transformative deep nature connection and reconnection to ancestral wisdom of thriving with and within nature.
​
My fierce passion for ancestral skills and sacred crafting stems from an inner need to connect with the Other. It calls me into connection and wholeness, that I rarely experience in any other way … maybe it is the cellular memory to the healed and whole far ancestors that lived in harmony with nature… who knows… Truth is the transformational magick I have experienced in myself and witnessed in others through nature and ancestral skills based processes are deeply profound.
​
It is time for cultural change and move into right relationship with our Mother Earth, Father Sky, with ourselves and all our relations. Elemental Reconnection is reflecting this new dimension of fostering health and connection for ourselves and our planet.
My training with Sam and Kate from Nature Philosophy has given me a great foundation to base my workshops and programs on. Some has been handed down from the Stalking Wolf tradition from North America. Some has come from the many years of their experience in living and teaching in right relationship to land. Some has manifested as a direct way of knowing from this amazing country and some just happens in the magic of the moment...
