I am not really one for talking about myself, but I understand that you might like to know a little about me before you let me work with your nervous system which relies deeply on trust.

Before I was a Spinal Flow practitioner and Emotional Anatomy advocate, I was a high school English teacher in schools in Brisbane and England. I excelled in my profession through a genuine love of teaching and connecting with students. I ended my career as a Deputy Principal in a wonderful Brisbane school.

A series of personal events led my husband, myself and two children to explore rural life away from Brisbane and landed us on a 3000 acre property in a little community called Atholwood (minutes over the QLD border from Texas). Upon reflection, we were seeking simplicity and a connection to land. And that we got! Though we now live in Warwick, Queensland, our five years in a rural community and farming taught me a lot about myself and what I deeply desired for my future. We still own a small property in the same community and return on weekends so our kids can still live that life.

An attack of ‘what now?’ when I left education and relocated to Warwick sent me down a rabbit hole of who am I and what I want to contribute in this life. I went back to the drawing board and thought hard about the things that set my soul on fire and what I loved to learn about when I was a kid. You know what it was? Two of my Mum’s books - Louise L Hay’s ‘Heal Your Body’ and ‘Astrology for the Soul’ by Jan Spiller.

So, here I am. Monique; a Spinal Flow practitioner who believes that there is always a root cause to our illness and pain. I believe that we are more than skin and bone. I believe we are energy and more than anything in this life we seek connection to others and most importantly ourselves.

Though my love of teaching and education is on hold, I truly believe that there will be a space in the future to teach others how to read the signals their physical pain is sending and deeply heal themselves. This is the space that I am working towards, one willing client at a time.
