I thought it was time to re-introduce myself. It’s been a while. 🤍

I’m Kasie. I’m a Vedic Meditation teacher, yoga teacher, aromatherapist, and advocate for natural health. Not in a “never do anything unhealthy” way, because I absolutely do. 😂 I’m Gen X. I grew up on Tang and Frosties!

A lot of what I teach comes from my own health story.

I was born with kidney problems. Years of hospitals, surgeries, invasive procedures and antibiotics for recurring UTIs. My mum eventually turned to naturopathy and traditional Chinese medicine.

Fast forward to adulthood. I had whooping cough six weeks before giving birth, and my immune system never really bounced back. Two children under two, a new business, a degree, all at once. Then kidney stones. Then one kidney stopped working. I now live with one kidney.

I genuinely believe chronic stress played a huge part in how unwell I became.

So I went back to yoga and naturopathy. I started using essential oils & studied Aromatherapy. No more antibiotics! 🤗 And eventually, learnt Vedic Meditation. The missing piece.

For me it’s not about becoming some permanently zen person who never gets stressed. Life is still life. It’s about giving the body a chance to settle and release, instead of piling stress on top of stress. It’s about having the tools.

I’m not anti Western medicine (though I do own a tin foil hat 🤣). I just believe in a Medicine 3.0 approach. Prevention, root causes, conventional care working alongside evidence informed natural therapies.

Before all this, I worked in pre-press, including six years at Cosmopolitan magazine in Sydney. A very different life!

These days I live semi rurally outside Sydney with my husband, two adult kids, and three kelpies. I enjoy gardening, hiking, growing food, travelling, crochet, learning about Eastern devotion and Vedic philosophy plus sheep herding with my dogs.

Healthy doesn’t mean perfect. You can meditate daily and still come unravelled sometimes. You can use essential oils and still go to the doctor. You can eat the cake.

It’s about balance, because we only get this one short life 🤍

It’s Shravan at the moment, one of the most auspicious months in the Hindu calendar and a time of deep devotion to Lord Shiva. So it feels relevant to share these photos from my visit to Virbhadra Temple between Rishikesh and Haridwar.🇮🇳

This is a Shiva Lingam, one of the oldest symbols of Shiva. Rather than depicting him in human form, the Lingam represents the formless, infinite nature of consciousness. ☀️

One of the most common acts of devotion here is Abhisheka, the ritual bathing of the Lingam with water, milk, or other offerings. According to the Siva Purana, it was during this month that Shiva drank the deadly Halahal poison that emerged from the churning of the cosmic ocean, saving the universe from destruction. The poison turned his throat blue, and to cool the intense heat, the deities poured holy Ganga water over him. 🌊

This is why millions of devotees visit Shiva temples during Shravan, fasting, chanting Om Namah Shivaya, and offering water to soothe and thank him, especially on Mondays, which are considered the most auspicious days. 🙏

I took these photos in Haridwar and loved the simplicity of this Lingam beneath the roots of an old tree, seemingly in the middle of nowhere. 🌳

That is one of the things I love most about India. You don’t have to visit a temple, devotion is everywhere and anywhere where people create a space for it. 🕉️

At some point you have to put yourself first. No one else can look after your wellbeing for you, and running yourself into the ground isn’t doing anyone any favours.

Vedic Meditation gives your body the deep rest it needs to start releasing accumulated stress from your physiology. As that stress begins to clear, you can feel calmer during the day and, importantly, actually sleep at night.

Look after yourself first. Everyone else gets a better version of you because of it.

Check out my website for upcoming course dates. Four short sessions where you receive your own mantra, the simple technique and we dive deep into how and why it works. We work together to ensure you integrate the meditation as a habit into your life for happily ever after. ❤️

Guided meditation apps can be a great introduction to meditation, but if you’re always listening, following instructions and waiting for the next cue, your mind is still actively engaged.

The technique I teach is different. Vedic Meditation uses a personalised mantra that allows the mind to settle effortlessly, without guidance, concentration or trying to switch your thoughts off.

Once you’ve learned, the technique is yours for life. No phone, no app, no headphones and no one guiding you. Just a simple practice you can use anywhere, anytime.

Meditation shouldn’t make you dependent on something outside of yourself. It should give you a tool that makes you self-sufficient. And that can be life changing.

My next course starts Monday night.

In the book ‘Care of the Soul’, Thomas Moore reminds us that the soul doesn’t need fixing — it needs tending. Just like a garden, it flourishes when we give it time, presence, and care.

Caring for the soul isn’t about striving for constant happiness or perfection. It’s about slowing down enough to feel life, to sit with both the light and the shadow, the joy and the ache, the ups and the downs. It’s about noticing the beauty in the ordinary: sunlight through trees, a quiet morning, the wagging tail on the dog.

When we stop trying to “improve” ourselves and instead nurture the parts that are already whole, something softens. We return to a quieter kind of contentment, the kind that doesn’t depend a constant dopamine rush 🌞

At the moment I’m reading the Mahabharata, and one thing that keeps coming up is the idea of dharma.

People often translate dharma as “duty”, but it’s much more than that. It’s living in harmony with the natural order of life. It’s doing the right thing at the right time, for the right reasons. The interesting thing is that the Mahabharata shows us that dharma isn’t always obvious. Even the wisest characters wrestle with it.

The Vedas speak of Ṛta, the natural intelligence that governs the entire universe. It’s the force that keeps the planets moving, the seasons changing, the tides flowing and a flower blooming exactly when the time is right. Nature isn’t forcing anything. It’s simply functioning according to its own intelligence.

As human beings, we’re part of that same intelligence, but chronic stress clouds our thinking. It disconnects us from our intuition, our clarity and our ability to respond to life wisely. Instead of acting from dharma, we often react from fear, pressure or habit.

One of the greatest benefits of Vedic Meditation is finding that place of quiet and stillness.

It gives the nervous system profound rest, dissolving stored stress so the mind becomes quieter and clearer. From that place, making decisions feels less like a battle. Life begins to feel less forced and more aligned.

Maybe that’s why so many people who meditate regularly say they don’t necessarily have fewer problems. They just seem to meet life differently.

Maybe that’s living in dharma.

The more we explore our inner stillness the more we return home to ourselves.

“We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.”
— T. S. Eliot, “Little Gidding”

5 things that makes Vedic meditation easy:

1. You can sit anywhere (chair, floor, car or plane - anywhere your back is supported)
2. You don’t need an app, the internet or any device. You have your own personal mantra sound in your memory that you have access to forever.
3. It doesn’t have to be a quiet space. Just a safe space.
4. You don’t have to fight natural thoughts away. It’s all good. We just favour the mantra.
5. You have access to your teacher forever. You can check your mantra anytime. You can also access group meditations from ANY Vedic Meditation teacher, and go on rounding retreats.

Vedic Meditation isn’t about making life harder with an extra thing on the to-do list. It’s about removing stress and making life better.

Check out my website for upcoming courses.
P.S A special deal coming soon……
