Our Story

After a serious car accident in 2010 I recovered physically but mentally and emotionally I suffered. I was diagnosed with Clinical Depression, Anxiety and PTSD.

I knew that there a natural remedy to help ease the symptoms depression, anxiety and PTSD. I used my knowledge with aromatherapy and essential oils to create a product that would help me in each of these areas.

I also studied Permaculture and learned about organic, pesticide-free gardening and building ecosystems.

As part of my Permaculture certification, I researched and threw myself into the world of Nature Therapy. Nature Therapy has been associated with lowering risk and symptoms of common emotional and mental health issues.

Everything I studied, I put into practice on my own property - creating a veggie patch, orchard and chook run which sustains itself. I also meditate and spend as much time as I can in nature.

After 6 years of using my remedies, people started asking me if I could make a product for them - and Yarra Mist was born.

I created Uplifting to ease the symptoms of depression, Balancing to help calm your nerves but stay alert, Relaxing to help with insomnia and mind chatter, and Freedom to relieve anxiety, panic attacks, stress and worry.
