DENISE JAMES

Denise's Story

Hi, I’m Denise James. I’m a qualified and highly experienced Naturopath, Iridologist and Wellness Coach. Over the last 25+ years, I’ve helped thousands of people to find balance, health and happiness in their lives. People often ask me why I became a Naturopath. Many healers begin their journey with their own personal transformation.

This is my story…

I was in my mid 20’s, exhausted, overweight, addicted to sugar, stressed, anxious, hormonal, working full time nights in hospitality and studying for a music degree. I also smoked cigarettes! I was a wreck at 27!

 
A friend recommended I see a Naturopath and I was so amazed at what I learnt, it changed the course of my life forever. I discovered how many of my lifestyle habits were seriously undermining my health and wellbeing. I started exercising for the first time in my life and lost 25kg, and I’ve kept it off easily. I ditched the coffee and cigarettes and my love of herbal teas began. I got my diet right, embraced Meditation and other Mind and Body Techniques and I started to feel great!

I finished my music degree and began a Diploma in Naturopathy and Traditional Western Medicine. I graduated in 1996 and I’ve never looked back! I’ve worked in Retail Heath, Pharmacy and Private Practice and I’ve enjoyed and continue to enjoy every minute of it!
 
I’ve also experienced the pure joy of becoming a mother to a wonderful daughter and together we’ve had many adventures traveling the world!
Tragedy struck in 2010 with the sudden loss of my brother and then again in 2014 with the devastating loss of my daughters Dad. It was a bleak, sad and difficult time for us. (and why not throw Menopause in too!!).

I learnt so much about resilience and how we have the power to  choose how we respond in the face of adversity. It was an opportunity to go deep into my own healing. I had Hypnotherapy, I meditated and took lots of calming and adrenal support herbs and nutrients. I took my self care to a new level and it paid off. I now have a new level of inner peace and acceptance in my life that I’d never experienced before.
 
Life is challenging that’s for sure and we need a team around us to help us through. I’m so grateful that I had great people around me and a wealth of accumulated knowledge and experience of self care techniques for stress management and body support.


Now, as I approach 60, I can honestly say, I’ve never felt better! My life is in balanced and calm. Life is good and I certainly savour the little things with renewed appreciation and gratitude.

I’m very passionate about all aspects of health and wellbeing and keep up with all the latest research in the areas of Microbiome Health, Epigenetics, Nutrigenomics, Autoimmunity, Weight Loss, Sleep Disorders, Healthy Ageing, Diet and Exercise, Stress Management, Anxiety, PMS and Menpause, Vagal Nerve Activation, Functional Medicine Testing and more.

So that I can be at my absolute best to serve my clients, I embrace a personal growth mindset for my own wellbeing. I admire and highly recommend the work of Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, Alain De Botton, Eckhart Tolle, Joe Dispenza, and Brenae Brown. I love Yoga and walking in the hills or on the beach. I’m a keen herb and veggie gardener too!
I absolutely love being a Naturopathic Practitioner and it gives me great joy to see my clients reach their highest potential.


I’ve learnt so much on my life journey so far, and I’m very keen to share my knowledge and experience with all of my clients so that they too can feel fantastic and regain their inner glow!

Remember…
