Barbara O’Neill was born in 1953 in Ingleburn, New South Wales. Barbara was born into a conventional Australian home and she was the second child with one older brother and three younger sisters. Her father owned and operated a Shell Service Station at Lugarno, NSW, and Barbara had the misfor- tune to see her mother die at the young age of 51 from rheumatoid arthritis. Barbara’s first work on leaving school was as a hairdresser and some years later trained and worked as a psychiatric nurse at North Ryde Psychiatric Hospital. Barbara’s journey into natural health commenced when her first child Emma contracted whooping cough and spent 6 weeks in hospital. This became the motivation for Barbara to search out the cause, find a remedy and live a life- style that would prevent this from happening again. With her partner, she embraced an alternative ‘hippie’ lifestyle and moved from Sydney to a north NSW rainforest area west of Coffs Harbour. Removed from close proximity to conventional medical facilities Barbara studied health and home schooled her six children. Her reputation grew as a ‘healer’ and people brought their sick children to her for advice and assistance, and she became locally known as ‘earth mother’. In addition to her passion for health, Barbara embraced Christianity at 26 years of age. This put her on a new path to look at the human body in the light that it is not a product of random uncontrolled evolution, but that it was in-tricately designed with all its in-built mechanisms to self-heal. Barbara was particularly inspired by the health writings of a 19th century female writer Ellen G White. After 12 years of living in a rainforest, and in a difficult relationship, Barbara left the marriage and moved closer to civilisation to allow her older children to obtain work. Barbara’s interest in health knowledge led her to study and obtain a Diploma in Naturopathy in 1994 and later in 2005 as a Nutritionist. Barbara’s real heal- ing success springs from
