A diagnosis of breast cancer is a shock for a woman regardless of what age she may be or stage of cancer she has been diagnosed with. Her world can be turned upside in a matter of moments as she is faced with many decisions to make, appointments to attend and a myriad of information that is available that can often leave her feeling confused.
At Yoga & Healing we offer women support through her diagnosis and her chosen treatment and beyond. Having been through breast cancer herself, Donna Nolan was diagnosed at 33 and had surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, hormone therapy and IVF. Donna brings a depth of knowledge and understanding to women who have been diagnosed and has been working in cancer support for the past ten years.
Breast Cancer Support Programs
Our programs offer women support alongside their pre and post medical treatments and are an opportunity for the woman to deeply nurture during this trying time.
Each woman’s program is tailored to the individual needs and can incorporate:
The bodywork therapies support women physically as well as emotionally going through surgery, chemotherapy and radiation and are complementary to medicine (not alternative to). For some therapies clearance may be required from your doctor or oncologist.
We offer sessions at our clinics and also online via Zoom.

Breathing My Own Breath
by Donna Nolan
$35.00 AUD
From a young age Donna recognised that there was a deep unsettlement within that led her to outwardly ask the bigger questions of life such as “Who am I?” and “Why am I here?” Having fallen in love with yoga on a trip to India, she sought answers from this ancient tradition. Her search extended to all corners of the globe, exploring yoga, spiritual practices, visits to ashrams, hanging out with gurus, Tibetan monks and meditation courses – all in the hope to satiate the underlying feeling that there had to be more to life.
