Sistah Raquel

Hi to all, my name is Raquel.

i am an indigenous girl originated from The Northern Territory, descendant of the Stolen Generation. I am reaching out to those who have a kind understanding of mental health as I have been healing from chronic burnout (as I was a workaholic) which then turned into psychosis. I was unable to function in a ‘normal’ state, day to day tasks had suddenly became unrecognisable to do so. Through this process, I reached out for medical assistance and did not agree, as they weren’t there to better my health, but rather then them to benefit from my sickness. My son went to live with his dad (other side of Australia) to complete his year 11 and 12 studies. (He graduates next month) ♥️ It was in his best interest to do so, it was also the hardest as I felt I was failing as his mother.

Through these struggles, I decided to educate myself with overall health of knowledge, being the mind, body and soul. As I did not want to loose myself being away from my child. I needed to gain a new strategy of wholesome living with inner peace.

My awakening showed me things, naturally I then questioned “everything”.

Coping through studying health.

Herbology, is Herbalism and Biology of the body working together with natural plants, herbs, spices and flowers.

Human Anatomy & Biology, is the 11 systems and bodily functions.

Microgut health, is the health of the gut microbiome itself.

Self defence training and tactics, since a young girl for protection.

Yoga and Kundalini recent teachings, has taught me to simply ‘slow down’ and learn how to consciously breathe.

I did work in Mount Tambourine/Brisbane to prove to myself that “I am able” to be back in the working work. Two weeks of employment, I became manager. The boss was a drunk and triggered everything I had been trying to heal from. Proud to say I handled it professionally, however, Why was I accepting verbal and mental abuse for the sake of proving to myself I can “handle it” I refuse to be tested and made to accept that this was considered ‘the normality’ for employees. I removed my presents. I decided to manage and work apon my own life. Packed up the car and drove. Practicing all I had unlearn to relearn all with a positive and opened mind set. I do live in my car, having the company of my three pets. Two birdies and my puppy-doggie. They keeps me actively engaged, they are fantastic for my mental health. I am on job seeker payments, a little bit does go along ways. My car troubles are random and do set me back, having to stay somewhere longer then needed. My safety is questionable due to this. Please find it in your heart to help contribute financially towards my animals and I. It will go towards food, fuel, studying and car needs. Sincerely grateful for your time & your kindness. I Thank You, I Thank You, I Thank You Bless your soul
