Welcome to the Health Commons Community

Taking back health

Welcome to Health Commons

Welcome to our Health Commons Community –  where frustrated health seekers confidently navigate their journey to wellness.

Millions of people are living a life absorbed by illness, whether their own or when caring for loved ones. A direction has been carved towards greater drug dependency with a blatant disregard towards the root causes, which has led to the exponential rise in chronic disease and cancer, a total loss of quality of life, and for many, medical bankruptcy.  

In our community, all bets are off!  We are here to focus on addressing the root causes, and we are here for people who want to make that happen in their own lives and for those they care about. 

This isn't another support group or medical forum. This is your pathway from "It's too overwhelming" to "I've got this!" It's where we get agency, become health assets, and reshape our future!

Why Health Commons exists

We know what it's like to:

  • Feel lost in a maze of medical opinions and alternative treatments
  • Question whether you're making the right decisions
  • Wonder if you're the only one who feels this way
  • Struggle to be heard in a system that often dismisses your experiences
  • Want to take charge but not know where to start

We've been there. We've walked this path. And we've developed the proven Health Commons framework that has helped hundreds of people move from confusion to clarity, from powerlessness to purpose and to get real and meaningful health outcomes.

Included in the membership

  • Twice Monthly Live Events: Catch up online with deeply informative 60 minute events to ask your questions, learn from others and join meaningful discussions
  • Supportive Community: Share experiences and insights with others who understand your journey
  • Resource Library: Access our collections of free resources on health and nutrition topics, including self-help for ailments in our medicine chest

What sets us apart?

Health Commons isn't about quick fixes of miracle cures, more products to fill your shelves, another voice telling you what to do or generic advice that doesn't fit your life.

Instead, we offer an active learning, doing and supportive community; where you can discover your path, get practical strategies that work for you, stand strong in medical conversations and get support and inspiration from real people who've found their way forward.  



Let's reclaim our health and drive the journey to a holistic, sustainable, and vibrant future for generations to come.

About Kathryn

A long-time seeker of truth, and a tireless warrior helping people find their best health, in complex situations and often painful decision-making. Often described by those who've traveled with me as a rock-solid navigator of tricky waters and difficult terrains, I started this journey over 40 years ago...as a Dietary Therapist, then Naturopath, and still not satisfied, went on to train as a Gerson Therapist, later joining the Board of the Gerson Institute, where I developed the practitioner training and authored Nutritional healing, after the work of Dr. Gerson, which was heralded by Charlotte Gerson as the nutritionist's 'bible' of the future. This complements my own Dietary Healing based on these same healing principles for all people, a work accredited by Dr Lawrence Plaskett as bringing naturopathy into the 21st century: 'a clear and uncomplicated exposition that transmits these concepts to others and enables people to work with them.' 

Never deviating from the central question 'Shouldn't the end result of all our efforts bring people to their own self-healing?’  I took many people intent on healing themselves on that journey. Their many remarkable recoveries were my inspiration and reinforced what we need to do to make it happen – the No 1 principle - when we keep the engine clean, it works. 

In 2019, funded by the then Minister for Health, Dr. Steven Miles (Australia, QLD), we launched the Smart Patient program, taking people on transformative health journeys with resounding success where 50% of our participants were able to reduce their medications. All those who completed the program transformed their lives in significant ways. This program is now brought to you as The Confident Navigator.

This community is my opportunity to engage and get things moving. My contribution is to share all my knowledge and to create a learning environment that will stand the test of time and, most importantly, help each and every one of you make your journey a reality. I welcome anyone who is on this path into our community to use our collective social capacity to make this happen.
