Next Access Course

The next Access course will be held on the 22 of November, 2009.
The venue will be at my offices in Randwick:
Level 4 Wales Medical Centre
66 High st
Randwick
Sydney.
Cost of the 1-day course is $180, including manual, certificate, teas and snacks.

I am excited to be running the course in the Eastern Suburbs. For the first time it will be really easy to have consistent practice sessions close by to where I live. I believe that will make a world of difference to every one practicing and incorporating this work into their lives.

BodyTalk at the Mind Body Spirit Festival

Once again, November is around the corner, and so is the Mind Body Spirit Festival (5-8 Nov). BodyTalk will once again have a stand to promote this fascinating and profound work. The public will have the opportunity to experience first hand Access treatments, have all their questions answered and book into our next 1 day BodyTalk Access workshop (22 Nov). This year, we have an exciting new tool to show-case the effectiveness of the BodyTalk treatments. We have bought a state of the art Prognos machine which will be used to scientifically plot pre- and post- treatment energy levels. The machine will be available at the expo as well as at future workshops. Once you have seen the difference in your energy, you will be hooked on BodyTalk forever!

International BodyTalk Conference held at Gold Coast, Australia

Well I have recently come back from a fabulous few days at the first Australasian Members and Instructors BodyTalk Conference! Thank goodness John and Esther Veltheim (Founders of the BT System) saved us the trip to the States earlier this year and offered 'Down Under', our very own grand experience!

I was once again thrilled to be meeting up with John and Esther, a dynamic duo- filled with great insight into the latest developments in Energy Medicine and Philosophy.

We also had some fabulous speakers giving us new ideas into working with breaking down belief systems and emotions that tend to rule our reactions to the outside world; Body Talk with animals; BT in drug rehab as well as marketing advise. John gave us the latest research into epi-genetics and our ability to shift genetic tendencies. 2009 presents with opportunities to implement a great many research projects around the world, highlighting the effectiveness of the BT System. Esther worked with us on highlighting and breaking down our own preconceived judgements and survival-based reactivities.

The instructors meeting was very beneficial in gaining greater consistency with in our courses and highlighting changes to enhance our course work and presentations.

All in all it was fabulous to meet up with my colleagues from national Australia and NZ and continue networking to make BodyTalk in Australasia a significant force to be reckoned with in the health care and personal development industry.


Here John and Esther are enjoying my growing babe!

Teacher Training

With the new year's preparations taking place as I type, I am being asked to be part of numerous teacher training days throughout the greater Sydney region. This is a fantastic opportunity for teachers to start the year with some great practical ideas to motivate their students and provide themselves and their students with fun and powerful ways to make their studying easier and less stressful. I am putting together some exciting programs, including techniques from my favourite therapies: Occupational Therapy, Brain Gym and BodyTalk to provide some punch, pizazz, yahoo and wow to teaching and learning! This is definitely one of my loves and passions: running trainings packed with fun and easy tools to make school a place where teachers and students want to be!

Contact me here if you would like my training to be part of your schools' 2009 program.

Please note: I have specialized workshops geared for Pre-primary, Primary and High Schools.
Click here to see some of my international Brain Gym workshops, here for BodyTalk workshops and unfortunately I don't have any footage of my Occupational Therapy workshops which were so popular in Cape Town, South Africa. I am so thrilled to be bringing all my ideas to my new home, Sydney Australia.

Together For Humanity

This past Monday I had the great pleasure to work with a wonderfully dynamic non governmental organisation, Together for Humanity. This organisation works on inter-faith issues with in the Australian school system. When ever I have the chance, I act as a presenter together with members of other faith groups to challenge our Aussie students on issues of race, stereotypes, tolerance, judgement and cultural acceptance. We play games and tell stories which make them reflect on their belief systems and embark on a journey of being part of a million good deeds happening throughout the country. We run 'Australians Together in Values' and 'Goodness and Kindness' workshops to inspire students to work Together for Humanity. It is wonderfully fun and fulfilling work and I have met some fantastically inspirational colleagues. Donna Jacobs Sife, my dear friend and story teller is one of the wonderful presenters with whom I work. Please go onto the home page of The Together for Humanity's website to see some footage of the kind of work that this great organisation is involved in. Unfortunately due to privacy reasons, I am unable to show you footage or photos from the workshops that I am personally involved in.

BodyTalk Access Workshop in Orange

This weekend I conducted a BodyTalk Access Workshop in a little town, Orange, about four-hours drive west of Sydney in country New South Wales. This is the first time that the Access Workshop has been offered west of Sydney and was met with a great positive reaction by the participants. My thanks go to Carolyn Foxall who organised the workshop and hosted us in her home. Welcome to Anne Mitchell, a BodyTalk therapist who has recently moved from New Zealand, who joined in the activities. Above is a short film of the fun workshop. Enjoy!
We also have a brand new You Tube Channel dedicated to BodyTalk Access Workshops here!

While in Orange, I was invited to work with one of the largest pre-schools in the district combining a workshop teaching parents and teachers a combination of techniques including BodyTalk, Brain Gym and Occupational Therapy. This is something I hope to expand on next year.


My next BodyTalk Access Workshop will take place on Sunday 23 November in Crows Nest, Sydney. There are still a few places open to those interested in participating. If you are interested, then contact me here!

BodyTalk at Mind Body Spirit 2008

This past weekend, Sydney BodyTalk had a stand at the Mind Body Spirit Festival 2008 in Darling Harbour.

Following the success of this weekend, two new Australian workshops have been organised, the first being this Saturday 15 November in Orange, NSW and another on Sunday 23 November in Crows Nest (Sydney).

On 4 December at 7.30pm I will also be holding a public Body Talk introductory lecture at The Southern Cross Academy of Light, Centre for Spiritual Growth, at Camperdown Branch, First floor, 176 Parramatta Road, Camperdown.

Private sessions in Randwick at PPFC

As you may have noticed, my clinic address has changed. When I am not working at Learning Links Preschool, I have the pleasure and honour of joining a passionate and fabulous team of Physio Therapists in Randwick, under one of Sydney's most prominent and well established Physio Therapists: Francine St George. Together with state of the art Physio techniques, they offer a holistic approach to health, healing and fitness. Check out their website here! I will be working at the practice on Monday and Fridays.

As well as seeing children for Occupational Therapy, I am offering my 'BodyTalk' and Kinesiology services for their Physio clients... Read all about it below...

Stress: As you well know, a lot of our physical symptoms, pain and injuries have an emotional/mental/ psychological component. This is where my skills really complement the Physios. If you have a sense that you are under stress (work, sport, relationship), or have emotional issues (eg: fear, worry, anxiety) or belief systems ("I cant break through my.... limitation"; "there's no way i can...") that are hampering your improvement; my work really assists in reducing stress and dealing with general or specific issues that are preventing optimal performance, functioning and/or healing.

In sports injury: My work facilitates healing, increased blood flow, lymphatic drainage, re-establishing musculo-skeletal balance, reduction in swelling etc...

Before sports events: I often work with assisting clients achieve their peak mental and physical alertness, focus, balance and coordination. If each of the body's systems is activated and balanced optimally, performance is enhanced exponentially.

During sports events: I also have a technique where we can do time-release sessions: For instance, we can set up your system that at a certain time during a sports event, a set of techniques can kick into effect, re-boosting energy, relieving muscle fatigue, re-balancing the brain, re-balancing hormonal system etc.. what ever is needed for your specific body.

Pre & post operative: I have done quite a lot of work with clients pre & post operatively. Surgeons and doctors are amazed at the speed of recovery, healing and rehabilitation when we have worked before and after the operation to prepare the body for surgery.

Daily techniques: I also have some fantastic self help tricks to teach you to do on a daily basis for maintaining your peak performance and health.
