Creating Well

Creating Well acknowledges the Jagera/Yuggera and Turrbal people, the First Peoples of Meanjin/Brisbane where I live and work, and recognise their continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. I pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and to Elders past and present.

Creating Well acknowledges the traditions, cultures, lands and people who gathered the knowledge, developed the practices and shared the wisdom that underpins the services, practices and therapies I share with clients. This includes the vast tradition, practice and science of Yoga, which originated, and is still practiced today, in the lands we now call India. I acknowledge my teachers, mentors and peers from all wellbeing systems and modalities. I have deep appreciation and gratitude for all I have learned and practice. I acknowledge their teachers before them through lineages of teacher and students that shared wisdom in the past.

We acknowledge all healing traditions from Eastern and Western cultures have histories marked by privilege and that some groups of people's health and wellbeing were not always served by these traditions. Such discrimination and inequity unfortunately exists today. We support the World Health Organisation's principle that health and wellbeing are every person's right.
