About Optimal Health & Wellness

Anna Optimal Health and Wellness

Anna Morningstar

Anna is a qualified Homeopath and Kinesiologist who has been in private practice since 1995. With nearly three decades of experience, Anna brings together science, intuition, and deep listening to offer care that treats the whole person – body, mind, and spirit.

Her work blends classical homeopathy with energetic testing, kinesiology, detox support and nutrition. She tailors each treatment plan to the individual, recognising that no two people – and no two healing journeys are the same.

Anna has a special interest in children’s health and works with families seeking support for a wide range of developmental, emotional and immune-related conditions. This includes working with children experiencing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD (including inattentive types), PANS and PANDAS, emotional dysregulation and tantrums, sensory processing challenges, anxiety, sleep issues, gut and immune imbalances. Her calm and grounded presence helps families feel safe and seen, and her approach is always collaborative, respectful, and child-led.

Her path into homeopathy began when her own daughter experienced health challenges in early childhood. After witnessing the profound healing that unfolded, Anna dedicated her life to helping others experience the same possibility.

She also works with women navigating hormonal imbalances, fertility and perimenopause, chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, emotional wellbeing and burnout. Her work is especially suited to those who are sensitive, complex, or seeking a more holistic and gentle approach to healing.

Anna lives in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland with her husband, and is a proud mother and grandmother. She understands the toll that long-term illness or emotional stress can take — and brings both professional knowledge and lived experience into every session. Her clients often speak of feeling deeply held, understood, and supported on their journey.

Kind Words

I went to Optimal Health to improve my mental and emotional state.  Since going there, Peter and Anna Morningstar have significantly changed my life and improved my health and wellbeing. Due to severe anxiety, I struggled to function normally in my everyday life however through their care, understanding and knowledge, they identified and balanced the body’s stress which led to positive outcomes and quality of life.  My family and I have always experienced great results with Anna and Peter at their Wellness Clinic and I highly recommend their service to help the body function at its optimal.

My family and I have been seeing Peter for over 6 years. He has changed our lives. We’ve learnt so much about how well our bodies work when we give them the right nourishment and support, especially when honouring the mind body connection. He is able to find and address the cause of problems phycological and physical and support healing in a natural and non-intrusive way and he has been so helpful when big lifestyle changes are needed. We no longer rely on allopathic medicine for overall health. Peter is always there for us when something comes up and I honestly don’t know what we would do without him!

My entire family has worked with Anna for quite a few years. Anna is an intuitive and knowledgeable practitioner and I cannot recommend her enough. My husband, 2 daughters and I have benefited greatly from her experience, remedies and skills. Anna not only has deep compassion but also arms you with knowledge to be able to help yourself at home with remedies in first aid and other acute situations. Anna has helped us with many long-term health issues, our children’s health and behaviour and this has been on both a psychological and physical level. Anna’s unique approach to homeopathy is holistic, deep working and extremely nourishing. I highly recommend Anna and her services.

Peter has an amazing ability to mix his knowledge and intuition in a way that allows him to be a very unique practitioner. He has treated both my adolescent children and myself over the last five years for many different issues with outstanding results.

Anna Morningstar has been treating myself and my three daughters for the past three years. We feel so much gratitude that we’ve discovered Anna who has treated us all through some difficult physical and challenging mental ailments. She’s now my first port of call when needing wellbeing alignment for myself or my daughters. I urge you to book a treatment with her.

I love seeing Peter! I always walk out of my session with a sense of balance and calm.  Peter has a special way of tapping into my body and mind’s inate healing centre.  Over many years I have had amazing emotional and health breakthroughs with Peter’s guidance, warmth and charm.

Anna has a breadth of knowledge and skills that I would travel much further than Brisbane to Maleny to see them at their Wellness Clinic! I am a sensitive person to any type of treatment – medical or alternative.  I love being confident that with a mix of kinesiology and homeopathy that the session will not only be working on the cause of the issue but that anything I am prescribed is in the right doses for me at that time.

– Cass, Brisbane, Qld, Australia

During the 17 years I lived in Sydney, I regularly saw practitioners who worked with the combination of Homeopathy and Kinesiology. I found this integration very beneficial on many levels. In 2002 I moved to Brisbane and started my search to find a practitioner who worked in the way I was used to in Sydney. Not an easy task. In 2003 I found Anna Morningstar at Optimal Health & Wellness. I have been seeing her regularly ever since and highly recommend her. Anna is a very skilled and experienced practitioner and her sessions are both educational as well as healing. I feel very blessed to have found Anna
