Mindful Revival
with Kara Vaina

I'm Kara, Mumma to two amazing boys and wife to a supportive husband who's also my best mate. Living in regional Geelong, amongst the gum trees in a small community where life balance is paramount. I enjoy craft and creativity, music, dancing and pretty much all sports. I grew up playing hockey, water skiing and bodyboarding at the beach. 

 

I love most foods and cuisines but I love asian food....especially a good Banh Mi or Thai Curry.  

​​

I've started an online ecomm business (My Mindful Year) designing and creating a range of mindful products to support the everyday person, beginning and supporting their spiritual and mindful journey which in turn supports their mental health. I closed that down after 8 years and focussed more on serving and supporting others. 

 

I'm a qualified Mindfulness Coach, Diploma in Mental Health, Qualified Meditation Practitioner and Reiki Healer and love learning so I can provide a true holistic support experience. 

​​

I've always had strong intuition and spirit within me and I had to follow this path.  Throughout my mindful journey, lots of personal development, plenty of spiritual healing, shadow work, journaling, meditating, exercising, as well as acupuncture, psychologists, creative outlets and reiki I found a shining light to heal, serve and support others.​

​

My personal belief is that the younger we can provide support, tools and strategies to our kids the better equiped they are to managing as the challenges of life present.

 

Self awareness is the most important skill to develop because when we are self aware, we are able to adopt and adapt to what strategy will help us at the time.
