The qualifications we offer are ideal for: • The natural therapist who is seeking to understand more deeply the impact of the

mind on their client’s physical health and seeking holistic counselling strategies and natural mind-body medicines to enhance their skills.

• The psychologist or counsellor who wishes to explore unique natural techniques for enhancing their client’s mental wellness.

• Anyone wanting tools to increase the quality of their life and relationships, both in understanding themselves and others and being able to deal with stress, pain and energy loss with natural mind-body medicines.

LiFE’s down to earth holistic psychology gives students the practical tools required for being a competent practitioner. For instance, in the module “Psychology of Self” the student gains great insight into human motivation and the different parts of the human psyche that control human behaviour.People tend to think of themselves as a mono entity, in other words they tend to look at their behaviour in overall terms rather than identify the parts of themselves (we call personas) that motivate and control different aspects of their behaviour. For example: a woman who is dominated by their Mother Persona, is going to behave differently than when dominated by her Feminine Lover Persona. The nature of these two personas and their life focus is totally different, so too are their priorities, talents and abilities, what causes them stress and what gives them a happiness.When one persona dominates at the expense of another it can create problems. If the Feminine Lover Persona dominated a mother at the expense of her Mother Persona then it may create a situation where the amount of money she spends on clothes and the time she takes socialising comes at the expense of meeting her children’s physical and emotional needs. On the other hand if her Mother Persona dominated at the expense of her Feminine Lover Persona then she may neglect her physical appearance and feel inadequate in social situations, deriving little happiness from being playful and sexually active with her partner.Such dilemmas are often stress generating and create inner conflict. Even when an individual is dominated by one Persona the voice of another Persona can be disturbing. In the case of the woman whose Lover Persona dominates, the voice of her Mother Persona reminding her about the circumstances of her neglected children is stress creating. The ability to break the allure of a dominating persona and holistically integrate the activity of all personas is healing and empowering. So too is strengthening one’s weaker personas and healing those that are damaged/traumatised. People’s wellness is often impaired because they live from the perspective of only one or two personas and thereby restrict their avenues for finding happiness. They also limit their ability to deal with life’s challenges because they are unable to activate the latent talents and abilities contained within their dormant personas.

Understand the positive and negative impacts the mind has on personal wellness.

This subject is based on the latest scientific research into the links between stress and health, the health benefits of mindfulness meditation and the multi-layered causes and maintenance of happiness and fulfilment. The student will learn among other things the relationship between Happiness, Stress and Energy and how these factors impact their lives, plus be given the tools to lower their stress and increase their levels of happiness and energy.

“How much energy do happy people have? What about unhappy people?”

During this subject participants will learn:

• How to track their happiness, stress and energy levels and see how they affect motivation and the ability to productively manage life (in the positive or negative sense).

• The dynamics of happiness and the impact it has on wellbeing. • The dynamics of conflict and the impact it has on wellbeing. • Highly effective techniques for relieving physical pain, stress and energy loss.

Techniques for sustaining resolutions and achieving cherished goals will be workshopped as well as techniques to overcome challenges coming from within and without. The final class will assess the levels of change already experienced and tailor each person's strategy for the road ahead. After tracking stages of the journey so far, participants will have Life Maps constructed to continue their adventures!

Discover the multifaceted healing properties of Australian flowers and learn to use them in your everyday life to increase the quality of your life, health and relationships – all in this eight week subject!

This subject presents the Mind-Body Medicine of Flower Essence Therapy and Colour (Chroma) Therapy through the therapeutic qualities of 88 flowers.

Flower Essence Therapy’s oldest known tradition is the South West Australian Aboriginal Bibulmun tradition which goes back to the global ice age (of 10 to 15 thousand years ago) and there are other historical and modern traditions in other lands.

Each flower property epitomises a positive response to a common difficulty and enables analysis of the role attitudes play in creating both patterns of behaviour and an individual’s everyday realities. The 88 scenarios explored in this subject also offer a platform to discuss the common, personal mind/physical problems as they are presented in the clinical situation as well as the difficulties arising when a person is communicating such problems to the therapist. Also included in this section are Mind-Body Medicines used on Traditional Chinese acu points for common problems such as stress, pain, energy loss, nausea fainting and sleeplessness caused by worry.

A unique holistic approach to nutrition for the body and mind.

According to western medical science, healthy eating is the foundation of life long good health. Yet it is hard to get the message through our faulty modern habits and ideas of food satisfaction.

“The natural health industry has always stated the importance of a good diet for health and wellbeing, however the state of mind of the person eating, with their ups and downs is often forgotten by health professionals.”

During this subject participants will discover:

• Good nutrition and nutritional psychology give immediate and long term benefits to the mind and body, are easy on the budget and time and importantly, are very enjoyable!

• Amazing dimensions of food where your whole being can discover the cultural, social and biological factors influencing food choices and how you can enhance this essential part of life with new and wonderful hands-on experiences of the senses including the mind.

• That food choices and eating habits have a lot to do with how happy, healthy and satisfied you and your loved ones feel- not just when they are hungry - but for decades into the future.

• How people can enjoy food and still give the body the right nutrition.

Classes are held around the dinner table in LiFE Academy's unique nutrition subject. Participants explore a holistic approach to nutrition, often whilst sampling something very tasty!

• Diagnostic Keys to the Subconscious subject booklet.

Diagnostic Keys to the Subconscious - Session Outline

Session One – Survival and Wisdom Concepts This session explores the two basic approaches human beings can take when facing difficult life situations. One approach is to fall into old reaction patterns. Another is to respond with appropriate talents and abilities. The difficulty is in knowing when you are reacting and when you are responding. In this class we workshop these differences and uncover the hidden wisdom within us all.

Session Two - The Autopilot settings of the eight personas This session takes wisdom and survival concepts to a new level as we see them expressed by the eight personas, each with their own happiness goals and fulfilment agendas covering the vast arena of human expression. In understanding the motivations of ourselves and others it is possible to utilise innate abilities to free our life from self-imposed limitations.

Session Three - Tapping into Ancient Skills The human hand has been used by first peoples in many cultures as a tool of great refinement in sensing states and changes of states in the human body. In this session, body scanning and mindfulness techniques are taught to enhance mental focus and equipoise.

Session Four - A Map of the Mind The subconscious mind responds before conscious thought. Catching those responses is a way to assess why we feel and behave in the way we do – to see what our auto pilot looks like. In this session the first of two self-assessment methods are taught. After the practical assessment session, participants will take home their own flower essence combination.

Session Five - An Ancient Key The Baihui acu point is the most important acu point in Chinese Medicine, and is also related to the Sahasrara point of Ancient Yogic science. In this session, participants learn how to use this point to test and refine self-assessments including choice of flower essence mind-body medicines for an individual’s healing pathway. During the refinement process, the individual experiences the healing potential within themselves.

Session Six - Fine Tuning This session further develops skills learnt in earlier sessions with enhanced techniques that can speed and deepen the self-assessment process. Mindfulness meditations are used to further engage the individual process of realisation and regeneration.

Session Seven - Preparing and Using Mind-Body Medicines During this session, participants - from the lay healer to health professional - learn to prepare flower essence mind-body medicine prescriptions based on the assessments made in holistic counselling. Participants learn how to prescribe flower essences for both oral and topical applications.

Session Eight - Practical Work In this final session, participants learn to incorporate their skills step by step to achieve a full holistic assessment and prescription. The session will be mentored through the process of assessment and each participant will receive their final prescriptions to take home.

The journey of energy from the sun, to life on earth and firing up the dynamic human body, is awe inspiring and full of wonders. In this 16 week subject such fascinating and essential knowledge is gradually revealed while relating directly to everyday health and well-being.

Starting with the atom and our DNA and continuing through organs and systems, you will appreciate, understand and be empowered to look after your body like never before. You will see the impacts of diet and lifestyle on mental and physical capacity.

Your guide on this tour is Kadambii Barnao whose love of science sees a blending of physics with biology and human health. For those wanting to work in the health sector this subject leads to holistic and practical knowledge and skills and the health unit of competency Confirm the physical health status.

Counselling One

Counselling One is presented as an introduction to general counselling, addressing the needs of students studying the Certificate IV in Holistic Counselling and Mind-Body Medicine qualification with LiFE Academy.

The focus is on developing practical counselling skills and building self-awareness in the student practitioner.

The building blocks of this subject are based on Carl Roger’s Client Centred Therapy which

• is based on a sound ethics and deals with the client’s unique problems, feelings, and attitudes

• sees the client as being in charge of the therapy and focuses on the equality inherent in the client/therapist relationship

• encourages exploration of thoughts and feelings in order to obtain insight into the causes for behaviours

• takes the client’s internal frame of reference as the starting point • is especially useful during the early phase of the counselling process when relationship

building is paramount

Also explored in this subject is a number of techniques drawn from Gestalt Therapy - the use of specific language and the use of role-play - which combine well with Client-Centred Therapy.

As the counsellor is the main instrument of change for the client, therapist self-awareness and ethical practices are most important. As such, this subject will also focus on developing self-awareness in the student practitoner. Ethical practices for counsellors will be discussed in Counselling Two.

Natural Mind-Body MedicineThere are natural healing substances, for example flowers, that primarily target the emotional/mental aspects of a person as opposed to their physical health. The use of the essences of flowers for healing has been used by Australia’s Aboriginal people for tens of thousands of years and also by Buddhist monks to restore mental wellbeing.Buddhism and Aboriginal culture believe that a human being is more than just a physical entity, they see a human as being composed of mind, body and spirit. Indigenous cultures that have given birth to different healingsciences such as traditional Chinese Medicine and Yogic science employ unique techniques to understand health issues. Accurate assessments and matching these to the right therapy is essential for achieving healing outcomes. At the LiFE Academy the student is given in-depth generic assessment techniques using the healing properties of local native plants as a basis for gaining experience using these techniques. This knowledge equips the students to assess and then apply these techniques to natural mind body medicines including homeopathy.
