Sandy B Simmons
A Life Guided by Nature and Knowing
Like many children, I was captivated by nature - the intricate way humans, animals, and plants coexist and thrive. My father worked in the retail food industry, which sparked my early curiosity about where our food comes from and how it shapes our lives.
Though potatoes and stringless green beans seemed enough to fuel my boundless energy, I instinctively understood that fresh, local food carried something different - something alive.
That early awareness grew into a lifelong devotion to understanding nourishment, vitality, and our relationship with the natural world.
Born with intuitive perception, I spoke at six years old of my aunt’s throat being red, inflamed, and restricted - she was later diagnosed with an overactive thyroid. The intuitive faculties of claircognizance, clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairsentience - along with telepathic sensitivity - are capacities I believe are latent within us all.
Why Have We Normalised Bad Health?
Over decades of practice, I have witnessed a quiet but profound shift.
We have normalised exhaustion.
We have normalised digestive distress.
We have normalised hormonal imbalance.
We have normalised anxiety and disconnection.
Children rarely see where their food is grown. Convenience overrides consciousness. Industrial systems have replaced seasonal wisdom.
We treat symptoms as inevitable rather than messages.
In losing touch with nature, we have also lost touch with ourselves.
My work exists because I do not accept that chronic dysfunction is normal.
My Professional Path
My early professional life encompassed 12 years in Corporate Operations & Executive Support, where I developed strong foundations in organisational systems, governance, strategic planning, financial oversight, and executive decision-making.
This period cultivated precision, discretion, leadership discipline, and the ability to see both the operational detail and the wider strategic picture - skills that now underpin the structure, accountability, and integrity of my health practice.
Following this corporate chapter, I stepped into motherhood - a season that deepened my lived understanding of nurture, physiology, rhythm, and the foundational importance of early life development.
In 1987, I began my formal health career as a Breastfeeding Counsellor, later becoming an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with the Nursing Mothers Association (now the Breastfeeding Association of Australia). I served as Membership Secretary and worked within the Lactation Resource Centre, supporting mothers and infants during their earliest stages of life.
During the 1990s, my work at Long Life Health Foods in Melbourne - one of only three independent health food stores at the time - expanded my understanding of organics and nutritional therapeutics. This experience ultimately led me to study Naturopathy and Clinical Nutrition, marking the formal beginning of my integrative health pathway.
After navigating my own fertility challenges, I collaborated with Dr. Kerry Hampton of Monash Health to complete certifications in Natural Fertility Education.
For more than 25 years, I have worked alongside Melbourne-based Scientist and Naturopath Dr. Vagif Soultanov, whose mentorship deepened my expertise in:
-
Kirlian Diagnostics
-
Bioeffectives
-
BioEnergy
-
Balneotherapy
-
Phytomedicine
-
Therapeutic Fasting
His contribution to my knowledge and healing journey remains significant.
Internationally and within Australia, I have studied with the Endeavour College of Natural Health, Entrepreneurs Institute in Bali, trained at Damanhur Open University in Italy, and experienced William Whitecloud’s work firsthand.
During this period, I expanded my professional foundation as a Flow Consultant and Transformational Facilitator, while undertaking advanced studies in BioEnergy, Pranic Healing, and Etheric and Spiritual Surgery. I also immersed myself in Sound, Colour, Movement and Breathwork practices in the Australian Outback with Dian Booth, alongside Buddhist meditation techniques.
In addition, I have studied Sidereal Astrology and consciousness-based clearing and protection methodologies, and for over 20 years have worked with a meditation group in the development and facilitation of scripts designed to release and transform layered symbolic imprints.
As the founder and CEO of Simply Better Health, Pregnant Today, and Beyond Tomorrow, I have led teams of practitioners and pioneered integrative health initiatives. This body of work is integrated within The Raft of Life - a unified expression of decades of study, practice, and lived experience.
What I BelieveToday
I believe health is not achieved - it is restored.
I believe the body is intelligent.
I believe symptoms are communication.
I believe nature holds the blueprint.
I believe ancient wisdom and modern science are not opposing forces - they are complementary lenses.
My approach integrates:
-
Naturopathic and Nutritional Medicine
-
Biological Medicine
-
Vibrational and Energetic Therapies
-
Emotional Integration & Transformational Medicine
-
Medical Intuition
-
Numerology and Sidereal Astrology
-
Sound, Colour, Movement, Breathwork and Meditation
I support alignment across the physical, emotional, energetic and spiritual dimensions of health.
Where required, I draw on diagnostic tools including hair, tissue, iris, tongue and nail analysis, alongside biomedical pathology - ensuring a grounded, comprehensive approach.
Health is both practical and profound. It is physical and energetic. It is personal and planetary.
Personal Experience as Teacher
My own journey through lifelong digestive issues, chronic fatigue, infertility, and near-death experiences shaped my depth of study.
Healing is not theoretical for me.
It has been lived.
That lived experience informs everything I offer.
Who I Walk With
I walk with those who are ready to take responsibility for their health.
Those who sense there is more than symptom management.
Those who are willing to explore deeper causes.
Those navigating fertility challenges, fatigue, chronic illness, emotional debris, or spiritual transition.
Those who feel called to live in rhythm with nature rather than in opposition to it.
I do not promise quick fixes.
I offer partnership, clarity, and structured pathways toward restoration.
The Integration
Today, as a health practitioner, consultant, author, speaker, and mentor, my work is grounded in truth, love, and lived wisdom.
I have integrated decades of study and experience into The Raft of Life - a framework that honours the individuality of each person.
Each of us chooses which raft to board, when to step on, and when to disembark.
My role is to walk beside you - ensuring your journey toward vitality is informed, supported, and sustainable.
If you feel called to explore your health more deeply, I would be honoured to begin that conversation with you.
Let’s have a chat.
Yours in Health and Happiness

A wonderful Inspirit 1:2:1 Connection today with Sandy B Simmons. I really enjoyed this, the meditation was fun and as we continued my body relaxed more and more. Until I could hear a few quiet clicks in my shoulders as knots spontaneously undid themselves!
Sandy's insights about the foods I need at the moment were invaluable as were her tips for exercising my spine. Generally, I feel about 5 years younger than I did before our call <3
Thank you Sandy your Inspirit work is amazing.
