"I feel like I did when I was a teenager" — one client's journey through Ma'at Healing Therapy (after six sessions)

Ma'at Healing Therapy takes its name from the ancient Egyptian principle of truth, balance and cosmic order. You can book a Naturopathic Appointment combined with Ma'at Healing Therapy in order to support the kind of deep, whole-person healing that a herb or a supplement cannot reach.

One of my clients is 66 and cares full-time for her 95-year-old mother — a role that had left her exhausted, in pain, and struggling with feelings she didn't know how to carry. We're three months into working together, and this is where things stand so far.

When we started, she was dealing with constant belching after meals (8/10), digestive upset and constipation, nausea with lower abdominal cramping (8/10), unstable and painful sternum (9/10), anxiety and overwhelm so severe she didn't feel safe (10/10), left hip and leg pain that kept her from sleeping on that side (9/10), and a heavy weight of negative feelings toward her mother (10/10).

Six sessions of Ma'at Healing Therapy later:

Her belching after meals has gone from an 8 to a 1, and the nausea and cramping have followed the same path — down from an 8 to a 1. Digestive upset and constipation have eased right alongside them. Her sternum pain has dropped from a 9 to a 1 — and she feels physically stronger, even doing the exact same exercises as before. Her anxiety has come down from a 10 to a 3. Overwhelm is down to a 2. The hip and leg pain that kept her up at night is now a 1, and she can sleep on her left side again for the first time in a very long while.

Her words say it best:

"I feel like someone I've never met before, I feel like I did when I was a teenager! I've even caught myself laughing. You're the first person who's actually made a difference to me, Miriam. I have a whole boxes full of supplements from years of seeing other naturopaths and none of it has helped."

This is still an unfolding journey, not a finished one — every body responds in its own time, and we're continuing the work together.

If you're a carer, or simply someone who feels like they've tried everything — I'd love to talk with you about what's possible.

If you've heard of Ma’at but aren't quite sure what it actually is, you're not alone.

Ma’at isn't a single fixed method that looks exactly the same for everyone.

It's a practitioner-led approach to emotional, energetic, and personal alignment, with certified practitioners bringing their own backgrounds, areas of focus, and session structures to the work.

That means there isn't one "right" way to begin.

Some people may be looking for support with emotional wellbeing. Others may be dealing with overwhelm, exhaustion, pain, or simply feeling that something in their life isn't quite right.

And you don't need to understand everything about Ma’at before you start.

That's part of the reason the Match Me process exists.

You share a little about what you're looking for, your preferences, language, and location. From there, you're shown practitioner options that may be relevant to you, so you can explore the pathway that feels most appropriate.

You don't have to figure it all out alone.

Sometimes the first step is simply finding the right place to begin.

Healing isn't about becoming someone else.
It's about slowly letting go of everything that was never truly you...
There is something incredibly peaceful about returning to yourself.

I am so excited to announce I am now offering Ma'at Healing Therapy, to complement my Herbal & Counselling Practice.
For 27 years, I have guided people through profound transformation as a Dynamic Healer, Spiritual Counsellor, and Medical Herbalist.
Yet no matter what the dis-ease in the human body, it always has a mental, emotional and energetic counterpart. The most exciting thing about Ma’at Healing Technique to me, is its ability to reduce stress, anxiety and pain. Unless the energetic pattern of disease or discomfort is restored, initial healing may only been temporary.
Stress = Illness and this is the level at which Ma’at heals - right at the cause, bringing back true balance.

Please click on the link bellow, to find further information and booking link, there's a short video as well ….

If you would like to chat to me about how Ma'at Healing can help transform your life, health and well-being, you can always PM me.

A groundbreaking study from Wuhan University is turning everything we thought we knew about Parkinson’s disease upside down. Researchers now believe the disease may not start in the brain at all, but in the kidneys.

The study found abnormal clusters of alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) proteins, the same ones heavily linked to Parkinson’s, inside the kidneys of affected patients. These proteins are known to trigger neurological damage when they build up in the brain. However, in animal experiments, healthy kidneys successfully cleared these proteins. When kidney function was impaired, the α-Syn proteins began to travel to the brain, setting the stage for Parkinson’s.

Shockingly, even people with chronic kidney disease but no neurological symptoms were found to have α-Syn buildup. This discovery suggests the kidneys might act as an early “reservoir” for toxic proteins, which could later spread through the bloodstream or nerves and affect the brain.

Though early and based on limited data, this research could completely change how we understand and treat Parkinson’s. It raises the possibility that monitoring and protecting kidney health might one day help prevent or delay the onset of this devastating condition.

I received a lovely email from a happy client this week.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a digestive condition that occurs when stomach contents flow into the esophagus. This is also known as acid reflux.

Symptoms include heartburn, a burning feeling in the chest
regurgitating sour or bitter liquid into the mouth or throat, non-burning chest pain, difficulty swallowing, coughing, shortness of breath, and/or increased salivation. Up to 3 million Australians suffer from this condition. annually.

The symptoms are typically treated with Somac, yet long term use can lead to kidney disease, cardiac issues and liver disease to name but a few. Somac does not address the underlying cause of GERD.

"Dear Miriam, Thank you for helping me fix my gut . I had a comercial drivers medical on Wednesday. Told the doctor I had been taking somac 40mg daily for the past 20yrs plus .

But no more as I have had a number of consults with a Medical Herbalist and I'm now taking only 1 40mg tablet every three weeks, he was impressed at the turn around and said to keep it up".

Phill is about half way through treatment now. 🙂
