All Round Health and Healing Introduction

Ideally I like to surround myself with people who have very positive attitudes about their direction in life and aspirations for their future. I particularly love sharing with people who are also not afraid to travel beyond the confines of the norm in their thinking and being.

I guess I’ve had the notion of escaping the norm ever since I can remember. As a child it seemed that whatever you wanted TO BE in life was inextricably bound to whatever ‘career’ you chose and I changed my budding “careers” nearly every week.

Science always attracted me, wanting to know how everything in life and the universe worked. But my final criteria, at the age of about 18 was to have the ‘Personal Freedom’ to explore and follow my own ‘dreams’ which were still forever changing and my priority was never to be restricted by a 9 to 5 lifestyle. At that time I didn’t equate ‘Personal Freedom’ with ‘Financial Freedom’ and the only people within my ‘realm’ that seemed to be living life to the fullest were ‘The Artists.’

In order to earn the essential ‘roof over my head’ I’ve been everything from an art teacher/professional artist to a gardener/waitress and along the way as an added interest studied various forms of natural healing modalities, eventually specializing in Polarity Therapy.

It seemed only natural to become immersed in the reciprocal relationship between art and healing and in my silk art work in particular I aimed at infusing the healing vibrations of the native bush plants/flowers into my paintings. At that time I was also making my own Australian bush flower essences. From there I moved into multi-media and photography and of course digital image-making. Still interweaving Art with Natural Healing * Instilling Healing into Art and Creative Energy into Healing.

‘All Round Health and Healing’ started as a reflection upon my own personal healing journey. I believe that health and healing is ALL encompassing and involves far more than the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. Although all these ingredients are vital for our overall survival, our total wellness is also dependent on our reactions and responses to people/animals/circumstances, the myriad of impressions we absorb and assimilate on a moment by moment basis and all the dynamics of our relationships with each other and all living creatures including the earth herself.

‘All Round Health and Healing’ brings together my understanding of many different facets of our living that can play an essential role in the integration of the physical body with the emotions, mind and spirit, thus contributing towards becoming ‘A Complete Human Being.’

‘Allyinspirit Wholistic Solutions’ is my blog for information on products and services that can contribute to one’s all round health and healing. And it will now include some new and exclusive ecological products.

Somehow with the shift from working with visual imagery to on-line writing, I’ve re-discovered as it were, my love of writing * But I can at times be given to making up words. So forgive me if the Academic English isn’t always “Queens” but I’ll continue to do my best to keep you informed about ALL that I know, both from my own experiences and from that gained by others of how to seek, gain and maintain all round health and healing.

About my Avatar now: I love natural law as exemplified in mathematics, nature and in indigenous handicrafts. I don’t begin to understand the higher mathematical/cosmic laws of the Crop Circles but I have responded to them visually and emotively ever since they were first sighted and incorporated them into a lot of my art.

This little Avatar is one of my favorite Crop Circles and to me represents a harmonious convergence of energy. But if my image is a rose to you, then a rose it is as I love images that are inclined to be ambiguous, meaning something different to everyone who sees them.

I wish ALL who come to “All Round Health and Healing” much joy, health and abundance in all areas of life.
