Wellness Workshops
Wellness is the road to reconnecting with culture and an individuals spirit. Aboriginal people are overwhelmed dealing with extremely poor emotional regulation and management as a result of the past 200 years of colonisation. A shame considering the well-being that was present here before this tragic period in this country's timeline. However, tapping back into these methods of self-care and self-awareness is the cradle towards healing as a people, and nation.
Participants in this experience will benefit in a range of areas that will have a positive impact across many aspects of their lives. A measure of success in workshops like this is the awareness of the core topics that are generated through participation and feedback following this workshop. The outcomes of the complete workshop are as follows
- Explore emotions through mindful methods such as meditation, visualization, and hearing from a successful story using these methods.
- Experience a light introduction to shadow work and past childhood healing.
- Improve understanding of emotions and their impact on mood and social interactions.
- Become aware of positive strategies to use in day-to-day experiences with emotions and overwhelming situations.
- Enhance social and emotional well-being.
- Have the opportunity to experience a unique connection to Aboriginal culture and spirituality.
