Event Information
About this Event
Come home to your heart this summer
Find respite from stress, time for true recovery and leave feeling thoroughly rejuvenated after this soothing self-care Sunday afternoon mini-retreat!
Come and join us for yoga and sound healing to open your heart in the prettiest little eco-dome you ever did see!
Hidden in the stunning Sunshine Coast Hinterland, nestled amongst native bush and beautiful landscaping, the Wonderdome is the perfect home for this intimate, heart-based, healing retreat.
Soothe the heat of Summer with some Chi-cooling Yin Yoga based on the meridian theory of Chinese Medicine...
Summer is the season of fire and after our opening meditation and welcome to country, our opening practice will be a gentle fire-taming Yin-Chi flow that taps and tends the power and magic of this alchemical force within your body.
Expect gentle to moderate movement and some long, slow holds to cultivate myofascial mobility and inner peace.
Afternoon Tea!
Cool your jets after class and connect with chats over chilled chai and healthy snacks for afternoon tea.
Restorative, Meditation, Pranayama and Sound Healing
Our second session is all about going in and going deep - toward heart-centred connectedness. Using breathing, focussed awareness and the mystical sounds of the a range of healing instruments, you'll be gently guided home to your heart, ending the day in a state of connected peace.
