Hello + Welcome
Welcome to my world of holistic wellbeing, where I blend the art and science of naturopathy to nurture your health and vitality.
I'm Amelia Bernauer, though most people call me Millie.
Where It All Began:
From Fijian Villages to the Central Coast
My journey into natural healing didn't start in a classroom- it started in the villages of Fiji. As a child, I spent time there with my family, immersed in village life and the rich tradition of Fijian medicine. Watching healers work with plants, ritual, and deep reverence for nature planted something within me - a connection to the earth and an understanding that healing goes far beyond treating symptoms.
That childhood curiosity grew into purpose. After high school, I attended an open day at Endeavour College of Natural Health, and everything clicked. The naturopathic principles- especially "first, do no harm" - resonated deeply with what I'd witnessed in Fiji. I knew this was my path: helping people heal from the root cause, using diet, lifestyle, and herbal medicine first.
I earned my Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy) from Endeavour College and became a qualified Relaxation Massage Therapist. As an ATMS (Australian Traditional Medicine Society) accredited practitioner, I'm committed to evidence-based care that honours traditional healing wisdom.
Florēa:
Where Natural Care Becomes Ritual
You may have known me as Travelling Tinctures Naturopathy or Mea Kanu Tea. Florēa Botanicals & Wellness is the evolution of that work- a more aligned space where everything I offer is woven together under one harmonious identity.
Florēa represents the beautiful intertwining of naturopathy, massage, and hand-blended herbal botanicals. It's not just about treatment, it's about creating rituals of care that fit naturally into your life. Whether you're sipping one of my naturopathically formulated teas or working with me in a consultation, my intention is the same: to help you reconnect with your body's innate wisdom.
My Approach: Affordable, Realistic, Root-Cause Healing
Here's what sets my practice apart: I focus on affordability, understanding, and relatability. I want you to feel at ease, not overwhelmed.
So many people come to me exhausted - not just physically, but financially and emotionally drained from expensive testing and cupboards full of supplements. My approach is different. I prioritise diet and lifestyle changes first, supported by herbal medicine, before we even think about costly tests or excessive supplementation. Where possible, I work with what your body already knows how to do—heal itself—when given the right support.
I create treatment goals that are realistic and achievable for your life. No rigid protocols, no judgment—just personalised care that respects where you're at and where you want to go.
Who I Love to Support
I have a special place in my heart for women navigating chronic fatigue, ADHD, stress, brain fog, burnout, and sleep issues. If you're running on empty, struggling to focus, or just feeling like you've lost yourself in the chaos of daily life - I see you, and I'm here to help.
My practice also supports gut health, hormonal conditions (like PCOS, endometriosis, and menopause), skin health, nervous system regulation, and general wellness. Wherever you are on your health journey, we'll work together to find your way forward.
Practicing from Erina, Central Coast NSW
I now practice from Erina on the beautiful Central Coast of NSW. You'll find me offering in-person naturopathic consultations at Go Vita Erina Fair on Tuesdays, as well as telehealth appointments for those who prefer the comfort of home or live further afield.
Living on the Coast means I'm never far from the beach (a typical coastie essential!), and I find balance through yoga, playing guitar, discovering new music, and spending time in nature. Music is my therapy—my house is never quiet—and I bring that same sense of rhythm and flow into my practice.
The Florēa Botanicals Tea Collection
Coming Soon....... A revamp is on its way!
Every tea I create is personally hand-blended by me, right here on the Central Coast. I use my training in herbal medicine to carefully formulate each blend, selecting botanicals for their therapeutic benefits and their ability to support your unique health needs.
From classic teas to naturopathically crafted herbal blends for sleep, immunity, mood, and detoxification—each blend is chemical-free and made with intention. These aren't just beverages; they're part of your wellness ritual.
Your Wellness Journey Begins Here
Whether you're seeking holistic guidance through a naturopathic consultation, the nurturing touch of relaxation massage, or the comfort of a thoughtfully blended herbal tea,
you've chosen a path that prioritises your wellbeing.
My mission is to harmonise science with tradition, empowering you with the tools you need to reclaim your health and vitality—naturally and sustainably.
Thank you for trusting me as your guide. Together, let's explore the path to natural harmony and a healthier, more vibrant you.
