My Story
Lou was born and raised in the country, lived in 4 different states and travelled the world. She has participated in elite sport, worked in the Australian Defence Force (Army), Police Force, multiple AFL clubs and the fitness industry. Most recently, she has been living, exploring, and immersing herself in the beautiful healing ambience and crystal waters of Byron Bay.
Lou understands the incredible power of the breath and somatic healing~ dedicating this work to the continuous liberation from her own lifes deepest challenges.
As humans, the Soul has an incredible yearning to feel seen, heard and understood deeply. Malakai Sun creates a safe, heart- centred, nurturing and sacred space to walk alongside you in your healing journey~ guided by your innate wisdom, power and incredible intelligence within to heal. Uniting the mind, body and Spirit we can embody a greater sense of nervous system safety and feel empowered to fulfill our highest potential from a place of love, resilience and courage.
Louella is an Ox* Gen Breath Movement Breathwork Therapist, Emotions and Metaphysical Kinesiologist, 200 Hr Yoga Teacher (30 hrTrauma Informed), Biodynamic CranioSacral Therapist, L1 Zen Thai Shiatzu (Bodywork), L2 Reiki Practitioner and Fitness Professional.
Louella blends knowledge and experience from a range of modalities, combining modern science, ancient wisdom, touch and sound to guide a session unique to your individual needs. Lous extra sensory intuitive connection, presence and gifts to channel Light Language brings an element of magic to her sessions where it needs to be ‘felt’ and experienced rather than logically understood.

A note from Lou..

I believe as a guide for others to meet themselves more deeply, I have had to walk with the flame to the depths of my own being to come back with the medicine for others. I understand the rawness of life and depth of suffering in many ways, hence the authenticity of my purpose to shine a light for others on their journey. One of my greatest intentions through Malakai Sun is to allow a safe and nurturing space for others to connect to the deepest parts of themselves, and to be led from that higher truth.
The diversity of my lived experience (through self, loved ones or work) understands the challenges of grief, parental loss, mental health, addiction, PTSD, chronic stress and disconnection from self. In more recent years, Post-concussion Syndrome, sudden hearing loss and navigating the healing process with physical and neurological injury has also been of special interest and incentive to help others experiencing these challenges. Malakai Sun prides itself on being an inclusive space for all.
I am forever grateful to experience my deepest healing through these modalities and they continue to change my life in so many beautiful ways, my gift now is to share this open-heartedly with others.
