Julie-Anne's Why 

It all began with a quiet vision, one that came to me 10 years ago, in a moment of stillness while I was recovering from heart surgery. In that space, I dreamt of something more—a sanctuary where people could gently slow down, reconnect, and truly come home to themselves—a place where the heart, body, and mind are held and nurtured in harmony. In 2025 my dream came true and I created a sanctuary for nervous systems, in the beachside town of Portarlington,Victoria. 

Where to start is the tough part, followed by words that could even grasp the feelings and emotions towards this course, this space and towards the beautiful teacher Julie-Anne.

The Trauma Informed Meditation Teacher Training has been my second experience being taught by Julie-Anne. Id have to say it is the first learning experience where I actually felt held, safe and where my uniqueness was celebrated and not dismissed. Julie-Anne creates such a safe space to express one’s self, to learn in a space that isn’t rushed, and where you are met with compassion and understanding.

This course has been an incredible mix of information that I feel covers all different learning styles, tactile, visual, auditory and kinaesthetic, the practical was always well structured but at the same time open for individuality to shine through and of course always a little bit of gratitude and dance snuck into the sessions. The Soul-Full Mind college is a wonderful place and truly a sanctuary for the nervous system, it makes me feel like, this is what the world has the potential to be like, safe, loving, and everyone being honoured just as the divine individuals they are.

Because the way you teach Julie-Anne, you are creating a ripple, a ripple effect of love pouring out into the world. I feel this after being in your space, learning from you and also being seen by you with all your support. This course was a piece of her heart, and I could feel that, every written piece of information with intention, every practical held in class with great care. I feel as though there is something special that is a little harder to find in these days and that is heart felt service, one that is just embodying devotion to the wellbeing of others.

Whether it be, to guide others and hold space, or for your own personal development, I highly recommend the meditation teaching course, or any course, any class or any therapy session held by Julie-Anne …. They are simply divine.

Never before have I believed so much in myself, with the tools gifted. Never before have I felt so deeply seen and heard, Expansive, and damn straight inspired. And there are times where doubt may have came in, but it was always washed away by the support of Julie-Anne. But don’t just listen to me, go experience her blessings for yourself. 

Thank-you, from my heart, Julie-Anne, what a blessing you and your teachings are to the world.
