What will be YOUR turning point for change?
Life is not always a smooth ride. The fact of the matter is, that in simply living, we can expect to be faced with many challenges that will push us well beyond our comfort zone. For one person it might be a relationship break-up; for someone else a traumatic accident; maybe a disease diagnosis; a job loss; or perhaps a sudden realisation of living another's truth and not our own?
How about you? What is YOUR unique turning point?
No matter the trigger, our real challenge is in recognising that we get to choose our response to anything that life throws at us. Not only that, but we can learn to live one step ahead of the game and prevent a spiral down before it occurs. For instance, disease always has an origin. Environmental factors, toxicity, genetics, stress levels, lifestyle choices, the thoughts we keep and beliefs we hold, all play their part in our illness or wellness. Why wait until we are physically sick or mentally and emotionally overwhelmed before we make the changes we really need?
The mission of Wildbanksia Life Coaching Service is to assist guide and support you to make the changes you desire to feel less stressed; healthier; self-directed and inspired. We believe in embracing a lifestyle for life!

We do this through sharing natural, self empowered living habits, conducive to keeping our body strong and our mind, emotions and spirit supported and expressed.

WildBanksia Life Coaching for Support through the Life Change you Need
My name is Lynda Ford. I am a Certified Life Coach specialising in Positive Life Change & Transition and Holistic Cancer Support/Prevention. If you are confronting life changes that are hard to deal with, whether in your circumstances or your health, I am here to help you navigate your way through them. The stress of change suddenly imposed upon us, or even the fear of change we most need, is the very thing which contributes to the development of dis-ease.
There are many reasons we become sick and there are as many ways that we sometimes block our own healing process. Periods of stress or unresolved problems will certainly take their toll. Feeling overwhelmed by imposed expectations from others or yourself can rob your body and mind of energy. Eating lots of processed foods can impair your immunity and leave you nutrient deficient. Even the discord within you that comes from pleasing everyone else and not caring enough for yourself can contribute to sadness and sickness.
I do not diagnose or treat, but will support and strengthen your capacity to prevent dis-ease and/or assist empower you to find the right healing path - through diet, lifestyle, mindset and other immune-boosting approaches. I do not believe any of us aspire for longevity without health and happiness. It is the difference between just living or thriving! The power of your daily thoughts must not be overlooked, nor your aspirations for the future. If you have stopped tuning into your hopes and dreams, then you are living a compromise that will steal your very enthusiasm for life. The more you attend to your well-being of mind, body and spirit before dis-ease has muscled in, the more powerful your capacity to live and expand into your greatest potential.
For those of you with a cancer diagnosis, consider the value of beginning your healing journey with naturally supportive, non-harmful lifestyle choices to first strengthen your mind, body and spirit before choosing a more intensive treatment strategy. No matter what stage of your journey you are at, the good news is that you have many alternate options to consider beyond just traditional Surgery, Chemotherapy or Radiation. You also have adjunct therapies which can be embraced alongside orthodox treatments, to increase their positive result, or to lessen their negative side-effects. Perhaps you have already been through the recommended treatment cycle from your Oncologist and now might be asking yourself what lifestyle choices could help me best to stay cancer free? There is lots you can do! Being pro-active can be very productive...why sit back and wait for cancer to return?
Ultimately, no matter what path you take, make it your informed choice. You are primarily a person, not a patient and life is about living well, not just existing. It has been said by many before me: "Accept the diagnosis, but not the prognosis." Wise words for sure. We are more than a body suffering sickness...we are a mind, body and spirit which needs to remain balanced in order to maintain wellness. Healing comes from knowing ourselves in this triad.
I am Certified as a Holistic Cancer Coach with the American based Charity Organisation BeatCancer.Org, also known as "The Center for Advancement in Cancer Education". I hold a Diploma in Community Services- Case Management with the Australian College of Applied Psychology; Strategic Intervention Life Coaching Cert. with Robbins Madanes Training; and Holistic Counselling and Meditation through Mind Body Education Pty Ltd.
BeatCancer.Org
Their Mission is to help people by providing research-based education on how to prevent, cope with, and beat cancer through diet, lifestyle and other immune-boosting approaches.
The BeatCancer Difference:
1) Teach true prevention, not just early detection! “Early Detection” is better than late detection, but it is not the same as prevention.
2) Their programs for diagnosed patients focus on the patient not the tumor.
3) They raise money for education, not research! There are thousands of organizations collecting millions of dollars to find “The Cure”. Prevention is the Cure!

Living Longer, Healthier and Happier
Sounds a great plan doesn't it? For some of us that plan gets turned upside down when we receive a cancer diagnosis or someone we love does. For me, it was someone I Ioved very much- my mum. She died in 2007 from secondary breast cancer at age 69, despite embracing the best of what orthodox treatments had to offer. I wish I knew then what I know now about how to prevent cancer and I'm sure the outcome of her diagnosis could have had a happy ending.
Twenty years on from my mum's initial cancer diagnosis at age 48, she received the dreaded news that the breast cancer had returned. I thought I was ready to help her navigate a natural healing path through her secondary cancer diagnosis. But I hadn't factored in the pressure of orthodox family opinions, or the overwhelm from trying to figure out which natural medicines needed to be priority one. Combine this with the fear instilled by the medical system to 'do just as you are told if you want the best chance to live' and very soon Mum chose surgery, then chemo and radiation for both her primary and secondary treatments. She supported that decision with a few natural supplements and dietary changes, but they proved to be too little too late.
Experiencing the premature loss of my own mother to cancer, confirmed to me the importance of living life fully, so that no matter what the future holds, we are making every moment matter in the here and now. I have spent the years since her death steadily researching natural cancer fighting protocols and seeking out good news stories of those who have won their battle and now living cancer free, using natural lifestyle changes and mind-body awareness as their primary medicine. Living a cancer prevention lifestyle can also raise resilience to countless other diseases, decrease internal toxicity and increase longevity.
None of us want cancer but currently it is set to steal the title of our leading cause of death by 2030. I don't believe this statistic deserves to find fruition. We are all capable of taking action to prevent cancer and it begins with lifestyle change and some good ol'fashioned self-analysis to understand what makes life feel meaningful to you. Never underestimate the power of examining your reason to live.
This is my mum after chemotherapy, with my children aged 8 and 5 and her dog Billy.
When one is happy, they are more productive and positive. We all know how a smile can be contagious! Well we need more happy, smiley, optimistic people in the world and there is a way to become more consistently positive, no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in. When we align with living a more meaningful existence, magic begins to happen because we generate more positive expectation. This is such an underestimated requirement for living cancer free. We start to realise that no matter how much pain we get exposed to, (mental or physical), it is our choice if we suffer or if we grow from the experience. When we suffer we get stuck in negative emotion and become blinded to the opportunities that could raise ourselves up and out of the state we are in, so we stay there for longer than we should. When we grow, we learn, we evolve. The insight that develops helps guide and support better choices in the future and opens our hearts and minds to amazing possibilities. Like attracts like!
Live from the Heart and Love Your Life!
Natural Healing and Disease Prevention
nURTURE NATURE AS NATURE NURTURES US
Central to living a natural cancer prevention lifestyle, is to respect the natural system that supports us. We live in a material modern world, one that currently is too dismissive of the reliance we have on maintaining a healthy earth. Many people still wish to control the Earth rather than be sustainable stewards of her precious bounty.
“Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money.” Native American Cree Indian saying.
Our highly consumerist lifestyles are taking their toll on our natural environment. Economic development has taken pride of place rather than Nature. This prioritisation is back to front and the fallout of this has led to Climate Change that threatens our very lives. And to the skeptics I say that global warming is a natural phenomena yes, but it is not natural to progress as rapidly as it has since the industrial age...it is human activity which has unbalanced the rate of progression.
In its most simplest form it doesn’t take more than commonsense to understand that if you keep clearing forest (trees breathe in carbon dioxide) and keep producing it then you are going to speed up greenhouse gases building up in our atmosphere. You would think we'd have at least stopped deforrestation? No. Here in Australia in just one state alone over the last 2 years, three quarters of a million hectares has been bulldozed as stated by Government figures.
Our chemical dependency built on convenience is killing us
Toxic chemicals are contaminating our air, soil, water supplies and our own bodies. They are effecting natural systems and particularly causing loss of amphibians, insect life, fungi and general soil biota- all of these elements are small but essential in the web of life. People often disregard certain life forms based on insignificant size, but it turns out that some of the smallest creatures have the biggest effect on the health of our environment. Take earthworms as an example, they are highly sensitive to chemical inputs and their role is to simply create fertile topsoil! Who needs that? We do of course.
Bees are another example...they are threatened by the use of commonly used herbicides, pesticides and fungicides, but particularly the use of those classified as neonicotinoids. Can we risk losing our bee population when they pollinate all our food producing plants?
Within Nature lies every cure for every illness
As our environment degrades, so too does our own health. The more ailments we develop, the more we fear illness. When we are fearful we act hastily rather than thoughtfully and seek the quick bandaid solution offered by orthodox medicine.
Orthodox treatments have their place, particularly in the case of surgical interventions for accident and injury and value to isolate diagnosis. The trouble is that the system is broken. Doctors are stretched far too thinly and often do not have the time to explore all the possible causal factors that could be contributing to patients ailments.
Unfortunately, the flipside to this, is that in many cases patients don’t wish to have their lifestyle examined and would prefer to be prescribed a pill as a quick fix.
The time has come to reclaim faith in our own wisdom to know what our body needs to experience wellness. Nature has everything our body needs to heal itself. So many diseases we suffer from can be healed simply by a lifestyle change and a basic understanding of plant based medicine.
Synthetic drugs are beginning to create more illness from side-effects, than curing the diseases they were intended to heal. In-fact, most are prescribed not to heal the disease, but to simply manage symptoms...so a dependency develops which of course pharmaceutical companies absolutely love! Motivation? Money.
Reconnect with nature
Wild places provide a clarity of mind and deep serenity that cant be found in the busy city streets.
Everything is interconnected...our attitude, our health, our choices and the well-being of Mother Earth and her inhabitants. It exists in an inter-connective dependency. We cannot live in isolation from the natural world happily. We may think we can if it is a lifestyle grown accustomed to, but even when we live in a built up man made city environment, people always seek solace in a green parkland oasis or a serene stroll along the seashore. There exists an energetic exchange in nature which renews our spirit and provides clarity of mind.
