This post is part of a longer post on supporting you and your family through winter, particularly in relation to what is currently going on. It is also useful if you are just looking for a little extra support for yourself or your kids if they are at school or going to childcare and of…
The summer of 2019/20 was a shocker, with bushfires in several states in Australia and loss of life, habitat and homes on an unprecedented scale. Community support was amazing and donations and offers of help came from around the globe. Sometimes apart from donating money it’s hard to make a contribution. As a homeopath the…
In 2001 I opened The Children’s Ear Clinic in Western Australia and spent the next seven years seeing primarily children under six. What I saw a lot of obviously were kids with ear problems, asthma, some allergies and very occasionally anxiety. At that time, with a small child in childcare myself, I can safely say…
I always love to share data about homeopathy; both research and successful cases. Sarah Saunders, a homeopath in Sydney and a keen researcher, wrote this great article for the Aurum Project, our very own Australian research organisation, dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of children through natural medicine research.

At this point in mankind’s evolution and at the start of a new decade we are working hard on building community to make change in our world: physically in our towns and villages, as parents and in families, and in a big way online, extending the reach of community globally. The power of the people…
There are many levels and kinds of trauma which can impact on an individual. Anything from sexual abuse or domestic violence to a car accident, difficult childbirth (for both mother and child) or bullying at work. Add to that intergenerational trauma which becomes evident when we look at the treatment of Australia’s indigenous people, children…
I hear this question often in clinic and see it frequently on Facebook. “Why is my child always getting . . . and here you can pick whichever applies or add your own! . . . worms, head lice, ear infections, UTIs, colds, croup, school sores, gastro”. This is a common and recurring question in…
