About
The Journey...
Michele Bland began her hypnotherapy and counselling practice in Bungendore in 2018 and after the first year, identified a community to couple health, wellness, and wellbeing products with her services. Your Healing Space (YHS) became a cooperative of wellness practitioners, artists, and products. Unofficially, YHS is known as Bungendore's holistic healing and spiritual Store. By coupling Michele's counselling and hypnotherapy practice with complimentary practitioners, artists and products, she is able to provide a full spectrum healing space.
Michele believes in education rather than indoctrination, wellness rather than illness, and calmness rather than busy-ness. She is an advocate of nonviolent communication, which focuses on healthy communication without judgment or labeling. She believes that by loving yourself and loving others, we all have the capacity to change our world for the better. Michele's goal is to help you become the best version of yourself!
Mission
Michele is a healer and wellness advocate who believes in transforming the planet, one life at a time. She is passionate about peace on our planet, which begins with each of us creating peace in our own life. Personally, Michele spent the first 45 years of her life in America, where she found the lifestyle frenetic. In 2015, she moved from America to Australia for a lifestyle change and traded in a busy, city life for a small, rural, slow-paced, "no worries" lifestyle.
Michele is happy to provide all of her services in person or using video chat in order to treat people who are not in the same area of the world as well. Through the wonders of technology, it's a small world after all.
Qualifications
Michele holds certifications as a schoolteacher (Grades K-9 and English 4-12), meditation teacher, chair yoga instructor, EFT/TFT tapping practitioner, holistic wellness counsellor (individual/family talk therapy and trauma/abuse), and hypnotherapist. She is a member of the American Board of Hypnotherapy, the International Meditation Teacher's Association, Complementary Medicines Australia, and the International Institute for Complementary Therapists. She holds a Working with Children's Check and first aid qualifications. Michele is fully insured for private practice through AON. Depending on your private health cover, it may be possible to claim her services against your fund.
Experience
Michele also provides dietary support called Auto-Immune Protocol (AIP) for clients with auto-immune disorders and has a particular interest in auto-immune disorders after healing herself of lupus, fibromyalgia, and Sjogren's disease. Essentially, she was her own first client and healed herself utilizing diet and lifestyle changes. In addition, Michele changed a number of her subconscious beliefs after determining that they were not in her best interest. She now uses what she learned to help clients do the same.
