Last week, a new client arrived and we set to… she was booked in for one of our most popular facials, Prana Vayul. Meeting her, I discovered an intelligent and engaging woman. We got on tremendously, though (as so often happens) close to the end of her treatment she opened up… Perfection is someone else’s…
I have a great respect for specialists in my field who focus on one or two treatments and market them exclusively. They are saying “This is what we do. This is where our expertise lies” and I have no quarrel with sticking to what you know and doing it well… Though it may sound odd,…
I was sharing a meal with a friend of mine recently who’d migrated to Australia in 2017. Her 3 children were enrolled at the local school and doing well. Her husband was enjoying the challenge of a new professional environment. She however, was still struggling… As we sat together, her questions reflected the heritage and…
Many of you might remember this powerful image, chosen for this article… the hands in prayer, expressing in one graceful gesture honour and respect. Friends, Agnelo and I cannot think of another image which so beautifully answers a question we received recently from someone we are yet to meet … Dear Saroj A dear friend…

Saroj, I’ve known you and Agnelo since you first opened Prana’s doors back in 2010… I wonder, can I pose a personal question? You are both partners in life as well as business partners 7 days a week. Wow! Don’t you crave solitude? If it was me, I’d be thinking “Run away!” How do you…

The answer is of course that professionally trained people will always display their academic achievements where they can be…
We all see things differently, but nothing illustrates ‘quiet intent’ so much as two very different men who both came to me for an Indian Head Massage recently… THE MAN FROM MADRAS This client was visiting Australia from Madras (now known as Chennai) on business so in some respects he has much in common with…
On a warm April afternoon, the sun streams through the windows of Prana at 22 Moreau Mews, Applecross. It’s a quiet retreat – a place that seems far away from the noise and bustle of this vibrant area. Conversations are muted. This is my first visit to Agnelo and Saroj’s salon and I am reminded…
Saroj I am in my late twenties and have trained in the aged-care sector. Geriatric nursing is a rewarding profession but I am now seriously considering training as a beauty therapist so that I can refocus my efforts on promoting and prolonging wellness. I believe a different approach would prolong their sense of self and…
