I have just recently returned from living in Essaouira, Morocco where I was living my Dream Life with my Donkey, Miss Maple and my beautiful husky dog, Pablo.
I built a gorgeous Wellness Centre, called DESERT ROSE in the middle of the Argan Forest , With many beautiful roses and olive trees, which eventually gave me amazing olive oil . I greeted guests from all over the world who came for my acupuncture treatments plus my cooking and my cooking classes plus but not least for the face readings and face reading classes. I had a gorgeous yoga shala too plus a swimming pool so guests were well looked after in my villa. The pandemic came and Morocco was shut down . The decision to come back to my roots after 4 years of being so far from the world and close to paradise was a difficult one.
So here I am back in the Noosa area, which is where I had my vegetarian restaurant, Sunflower Nibbles, in The Junction in the late 70’s early 80’s.
It was totally Organic then and was a hive of activity. My love of cooking and teaching these skills remains to this day. I am a published author of a vegetarian cookbook The Elegance of Elements.
My life of helping people in the healing field began before the restaurant when I became a naturopath /massage therapist. Then this lead to studying Kinesiology, homeopathy, having 5 children, starting up the first Home birth group and running a whole foods coop in New Zealand to studying acupuncture, living in China for Post Graduate Course then studying Japanese style Acupuncture.
Eventually this lead to setting up my own College of Applied Feng Shui & Oriental Medicine in Cairns with my then husband who was a Feng Shui Consultant. Many trips to Japan to study with the Sensei’s plus they came to my college to enhance the students and my knowledge of Moxibustion and Japanese style needling, which is painless and wonderful.
I spent many years traveling backwards and forwards to USA, using my skills with Facial acupuncture, on many actors and actresses.
In my years of study and this continues, I was privileged to be taught Meng Shiang, the art of Face Reading about 20 years ago , in China, Japan and with LillianBridges who was the worlds most loved and prestigious teacher. I now do Face Readings and teach Face reading classes also a 10 week course on becoming a Face Reader, with an additional 6 weeks of professional mentoring .
I have taught and treated in many countries for over 45 years now and love it which includes my certificate of Training Mentor for the Shenzhou Open University of TCM in Amsterdam for the next 10 years.
