Get to Know Rita ...continued
In 2006, Rita commenced on her journey to learn more about Mind –Body Medicine to assist her clients to better understand the messages their bodies were sending them. It was an opportunity for her clients to understand how their stresses and negative reactions to life situations began and could be released forever. It was the only way to be free, happy and healthy. You can find out more about Rita’s course at www.life-academy.com.au
Rita has a strong connection with women. Although women have many more rights than they ever have, they seem to have more responsibilities and pressure. If they have children, many of them are raising children, managing a household and employment. Even those women who don’t have children seem to feel the pressure in areas of their lives that they haven't had before. For many women, this creates confusion, depression, anxiety, physical and mental stress and an inability to cope. Women want to feel secure, confident, know who they are, know their worth, be able to set boundaries, feel guilt free, be loving towards others, and feel loved and happy.
Rita practices what she preaches. She uses mind –body medicine in her daily life and with her family. As a mother of a 4 year old who was experiencing bed wetting problems, Rita made up a flower essences remedy for him to take. Within three weeks the bed wetting ceased. Flower essences are used for pain and stress in her family also. Similarly is the use of Reiki and Massage.
At other times depending on the issue Rita will consult with other Natural Health Practitioners such as a Naturopath, Homeopath, Kinesiologist or Physiotherapist.
Rita and her family are also very conscious of their physical bodies and eat organic foods, use organic creams, soaps and lotions on their bodies and cleaning products in the home and exercise on a regular basis. They are also very aware of the impact they can make to the environment and have their own organic vegetable garden and compost, are in the process of purchasing a water tank and are using as much environmental products in the renovation of the healing centre.
