Hi, my name is Shelley and welcome to Herbal Reconnection.
I am a Naturopath, Herbalist, Nutritionist, mother, partner, daughter, sister, friend to many and student in the school of life. I am based in the beautiful town of Dungog in the Hunter Valley in New South Wales.
According to the World Health Organisation, health is defined as “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”.
I wonder how many of us are really are in a state of health.
Despite the complexities of our modern world and the challenges it presents to our lifestyle choices, I like to think most of us are striving to achieve health and an inner sense of vitality. Fast paced, often stressful lives, living on processed foods and at times making unfavorable lifestyle choices, can result in feeling somewhat disconnected from our health goals, fatigued, unwell and eventually resulting an upset digestive system.
In addition to an abundance of fresh produce, good quality protein and clean drinking water, we are also gifted with an unlimited quantity of healing power in plants, herbals and nutritional supplements. I believe a balanced combination can assist us in pathing the way forward to achieve specific needs and health goals. Above all, I believe good digestion is the cornerstone to achieving great health. Digestion of food, absorption of nutrients and elimination of waste are all factors in
good health. When one of these factors is out of balance, good health is difficult to achieve.
Iridology; the study of the iris can assist in better understanding an individual’s “roadmap” to health. There are no two irises the same, in fact each iris is unique and individual with colours, fibre structure and markings. When provided with the opportunity to look at a person’s eye, it always amazes me how much detail is recorded in the iris – a lifetime of living. I use Iridology to assist in understanding more about you and how to best support you in achieving your own state of health.
If I can help you reconnect with your health goals, assist in improving your digestion or simply help you understand what your eyes reveal about your own health, please reach out and take the first step to reconnecting with your health goals.
Yours in health
Shelley
