Welcome to Banksia Space
At Banksia Space, we are dedicated to holding space for women, and supporting them through their unique and individual process of womanhood. We provide a nurturing and supportive environment for women to explore the benefits of Reiki, Yoga, and Meditation.
Our holistic approach aims to provide a nurturing space for relaxation, and promote overall well-being.
Banksia symbolises rebirth and new beginnings. To move on from the past courageously, to have the strength to look forward to tomorrow.

Amy Layton
Amy has a wide range of knowledge and experience that she draws upon to hold space for women. She supports and honours the individual journey and the process of womanhood.
Amy sees herself as a life-long learner, completing a Bachelor of Social Science (Counselling), Graduate Diploma of Education (Primary) and Masters of Education (Early Years). She has also completed 500 hours of Yoga Teacher Training, Reiki Trainings, Ayurveda and Women's Holistic Health Trainings.
Amy's experience is in Education and Mental Health, which lead her to work predominately in the space of Eating Disorders and Body Image issues, offering counselling, holistic support, conducting research and developing educational materials. She was then lead back into the Education space where she passionately supports and works with children with disabilities.
Amy has felt deeply drawn back to holding space for women after a prolonged fertility journey and exploration of the work of conscious conception. She was diagnosed with Endometriosis and Adenomyosis after 12 years of misdiagnosis (unfortunately she knows she is not alone in prolonged diagnosis). Amy has been through the many ups and downs of the fertility journey and honours each woman's individual experience providing a non-judgemental and safe space for women to explore and connect with the self.
Amy strongly believes that each individual woman deserves to be held, supported and nurtured which flows through her offerings of Reiki, Meditation and Yoga.
"Stay true in your intentions, creating a loving space for yourself. Loosen the tightness of your grip and let go of expectation - surrender. Remember the power and strength that surrender and gratitude bring. The practice of surrender can support us with the next steps and the unknowns of what is yet to come. The path is challenging however, rewarding in so many unexpected ways." - Amy x
