Katya's Bio

In 1979, Katya established a Natural Beauty Therapy Clinic in the city of Melbourne, which serviced many well known T.V personalities. She successfully used many of her own plant preparations in the beauty and body treatments. Further study of Vibrational Therapies such as Classical Homoeopathy and Flower Essences and then a move to Tasmania where Katya founded the Tasmanian Flower Essence Centre in 1994. She formulated and taught an Accredited Certificate Course in Flower Essence Therapy that proved to be a valuable source of knowledge into the medicinal and beautifying applications of plants and flowers, activating profound personal growth for every student.

In her mid forties, Katya moved to the tropics and fully embraced a Raw and Living foods Lifestyle. She studied Colonic Irrigation and administered Colonics at a Raw Food Health Institute.

In 2002, an opportunity arose to open a Raw and Living foods Exotic café and Education Centre. This gave her the experience of preparing and introducing delicious, gourmet Living foods to many people. It was also the foundation for a greater vision which she has now gone on to creating - an Educational Raw and Living foods Centre where Katya conducts Fasting, Beauty and Detox Rawjuvenating Retreats, Intensive Workshops, Potluck Gatherings, Seminars and hosts Rawjuvenating Lunches. Through eating only foods in their original state as provided by Nature, Katya has freed herself from: arthritis, allergies, breast lumps, menopausal imbalances, cellulite, digestive disturbances and stimulant addiction. In the process she discovered that the ‘Fountain of Youth’ really is within and became younger and more beautiful from the Inside Out.

This inspired her to write and have published several articles on Nature’s Raw and Living Foods. Katya has spoken on radio, and is on the BFA (Biological Farmer's Australia) Educational Committee, committed to educating the public of the benefits of Organics, with a program to be introduced into schools in 2006, educating young children on organic fruit and vegetables. Katya has just completed writing a comprehensive book. Katya has dedicated her life to leading the way, educating and inspiring others from her extensive knowledge and experience. At 49, her enthusiastic passion and vibrant presence is a testament to the ability of Living Foods to deliver divine health and beauty, the birthright of every person.
