What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.
Aug

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.

Ever wondered what happens when we create a space to experiment with how we relate to ourselves and others?

This event invites you to step out of your default modes of interaction, drop the masks, and explore authentic relating. Together, we'll play with communication and discovering new ways of being through experiential games.

What to Expect:

- A playful atmosphere to experiment with authentic connection.

- Activities that bring out hidden parts of yourself.

- Communicate differently, with exercises like using only two words to express yourself.

- Reflect on your experiences to deepen self-awareness and connection with self and others.

Why Join?

If you’re ready to play, connect, and explore what it means to be truly present with yourself and others, this is for you. You’ll discover new insights, build meaningful connections, and surprise yourself with what emerges.

About your facilitator: Matthew - @matthews.labs

Matthew has had an interest in self and relational exploration. Curious about how play can be harnessed to find more integrity he has used the experiences of overcoming his struggles as fuel to be in service to others. In the mid 2010s he became a certified massage therapist and yoga teacher. Over the past few years he has deepened and embodied a more expressive relationship with himself and others through exploring workshops and trainings such as Ecstatic Dance, Authentic Relating, ISTA, Breathwork, Process work and the Human Forest, a consensual touch group experience.

His struggle with social anxiety has been deeply supported by Authentic Relating more than he ever could have imagined. Matthew values creating and holding spaces that are kind, clear, expressive, and exploratory. He brings his own unique flavour of play and exploration to his facilitation. He loves holding spaces where people feel safe enough to show up as the beautifully messy humans that we all are. He believes strongly in meeting everyone at their level and that finding coherence as a group involves everyone’s input.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing and sitting/laying upon the floor with ease. A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).

Personal responsibility: Please make an assessment on whether you are feeling stable and resourced enough to explore the practices on offer in this event.

No Photo/Video Content Will Be Captured: We recognise that being at an event where content is being captured can impact the personal comfort and nervous system regulation of our community.

Arrival: Endeavour to arrive between 6:15pm - 6:30pm. To preserve the experience for all involved, doors will close at 6:45pm. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

9D Breathwork: The Awakening.
Sep
1

9D Breathwork: The Awakening.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

The Awakening

Fasten your seatbelt as you transcend the dream spell, revealing the unfiltered truth of your existence - empowered, sovereign, and free. Peel back layers, shedding fictions that kept you feeling small. This breathwork haven releases burdens of the past, bidding farewell to negativity, self-criticism, and judgments, allowing reconnection with your authentic self. Inspired by themes of acceptance, gratitude, self-belief, and courage, The Awakening sparks a potent personal rebirth, creating space for emotional resilience, inner peace, and restored balance. This revitalizing expedition fortifies sustained growth, guiding you toward a life illuminated by authenticity, self-discovery, and the empowering truth of your sovereignty.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

FEAST - A Non-Se*ual, Transpersonal Exploration of Traditional Tantra.
Sep
6

FEAST - A Non-Se*ual, Transpersonal Exploration of Traditional Tantra.

A guided afternoon of sensory mindfulness, paired ritual, and sacred presence, exploring non-se*ual touch, sound, scent & taste.

About the experience:

FEAST is an immersive afternoon of mindfulness, ritual, and sensory exploration. This is an invitation to slow down, sensitise, and savour the abundance of sensation available in each precious living moment.

You’ll be guided through practices that awaken curiosity, creativity, and connection to Divinity - before pairing with a partner to offer and receive two 1-hour rituals of sensory gifting. The afternoon closes with grounding and nourishing soup.

Unlike conventional workshops, FEAST blends devotional ritual and embodied exploration in a safely held space where sensuality is honoured without being se*ualised.

In a world that often races by in a whirlwind of responsibilities and chaos, there comes a time to slow down and reconnect with the profound beauty of the present moment - where all power, pleasure, playfulness, and perfection abide.

This is your invitation to FEAST.

Part workshop, part ritual, FEAST is a guided journey of self-discovery and sensory awakening, an exploration into the boundless realms of presence, pleasure, curiosity, and the Divine.

What awaits you:

Embodied mindfulness:

-guided practices to bring awareness into the present moment, awakening your senses to the subtle nuances of pleasure

Ritualised sensory explorations:

- immerse in a variety of sensory experiences guided by curiosity– receive the sensual gifts of a caring companion, and offer your own with intention and presence– bring personal items to play with and/or choose from our creative cornucopia of shared tools

Creative expression:

- tap into your unique expression through sensory creativity and devotional play

Divine connection:

- experience sacred communion with your own body, your partner, and the Divine presence within and around you

Feedback from past FEASTs:

"Out of body, but embodied experience. It was actually truly incredible for me"

"Stellar… Certainly brought me closer to my partner during the session and again, I felt so connected with everyone in the room despite only giving/receiving with a partner. It was incredibly opening and connecting for me."

"I felt like I feasted during both giving and receiving. It was a remarkable experience"

"I found a greater connection to self and life, and learned to stop and feast on life - taste it with all of my senses. I felt very grounded and connected."

**With respect for the ritual, registrations will close 24 hours prior to the event - at 12pm on Friday, 5th September.

+++++++++++++++

About your facilitator - Miriam Fathalla - @communion_events

Miriam creates embodied, expansive, playful, sacred & spiritually directed ritual experiences. Informed by Kashmir Shaivism, Zen Buddhist Mindfulness, Islamic mysticism, Authentic Relating, somatic practices & astrology, Miriam creates opportunities for genuine Communion - direct experience of the Divine (within ourselves, each other, and beyond) - with the rituals, retreats & events that she produces.

A note from Miriam:

Dress code: sensual, comfortable, and expressive. Wear what helps you feel most authentic and free to move.

You may wish to have some skin exposed to receive touch. The space will be kept warm.

During the ritual experience, participants may choose to remove layers (such as tops or pants) to allow for nurturing, non-se*ual touch on more areas of the body. This is always optional, guided by clear consent, and underwear remains on at all times - genital touch or stimulation is never part of this experience.

Participants will be contacted directly soon after ticket purchase with a link to a form to complete at their earliest convenience, to inform the group container of any sensory needs, potential boundaries, and trigger risks so they can be attuned to and all participants can arrive in a state where we all feel supported to relax, feel, and be fully present.

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.
Sep
6

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.

An experiential exploration of discovering the consensual touch we'd truly love to give and receive.

The Human Forest is a consensual, devotional touch experience that invites you to embody your boundaries, stay present, root into your heart, and embrace the essence of oneness through touch. This is a space where time slows, hearts soften, boundaries are honoured, and through the art of deep embodied listening within community, something ancient awakens.

Together, we’ll explore the alchemy of touch as a pathway to presence, where every gesture becomes an offering and every body is honoured. This is a container of sacred play and restorative contact, free from ongoing expectation. A space to explore boundary work, lean into the art of receiving, and be witnessed.

Who this is for:

The Human Forest is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Whether you're an individual seeking deeper connection, a couple exploring the art of non-sexual touch, or a community member curious about the healing power of shared experiences, this space welcomes all who are open to honouring their boundaries and cultivating a sense of oneness.

Whether you're young or young at heart, and whether you identify as male, female, non-binary, or anywhere along the gender spectrum, you’ll find a nurturing environment where your presence is honoured and your heart is safe to open.

Join us for this sacred journey of connection and self-discovery, where every person is celebrated and valued for their unique contribution to the collective experience.

What to expect:

We begin with a grounding circle, connection exercises, and an explanation of the Human Forest framework to create shared language and agreements.

In the Human Forest, we become the ecology, connected through consensual, symbiotic, loving touch. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be gently guided into a world where consent is sacred and boundaries are celebrated.

Half of the room will begin as trees, blindfolded, whose role is to receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room – the critters. Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both roles, twice. Communication within the Forest container will be non-verbal.

These events can be powerful, healing experiences. When the heart opens – through touch, connection, beauty, or presence – the emotional landscape can become vast and deeply personal. Participants may experience love, joy, tenderness, grief, trust, sadness, playfulness, and empowerment.

Our priority is supporting everyone to leave feeling open, cared for, and deeply held in their belonging.

Are you open to trusting yourself?

To being part of a community awakening to the heart-opening, honest, restorative power of non-expectational touch?

Let yourself be held.
Let yourself give.
Let yourself soften into something beautifully human.

What others have said:

“Can we please do this every day!?”

“I just feel like honey melting down a warm stove.”

“I can actually feel my body, myself, and other people. I feel so connected.”

“I’ve never felt so supported in my life.”

“It’s MIND BLOWING to share this much intimacy with so much reverence.”

What to bring:

  • Comfortable, soft clothing for lounging and movement

  • A snack or drink to share afterward in our community time, this is our aftercare

  • An open heart and a curious mind

  • Water

  • A friend or two who might just need this more than they know

++++++++++++++++++

IMPORTANT:

  • In this event, we focus on devotional, loving, and non-sexually oriented touch. Sensual, not sexual. Please note: there is no genital touch at this event, and underwear remains on at all times.

  • There is no kissing or fluid exchange at any time.

  • Participants who know each other - especially those in romantic relationships - are asked to follow the same agreements, rules, and etiquette of the space as everyone else while the event is running (e.g. no kissing your lover in the Forest). This helps avoid confusion about what is and isn’t appropriate and supports the integrity of the container.

  • All of our events have been remarkably healing and heart-opening for many participants, as seen in the testimonials above. That said, this is a touch-focused experience. If you have a history of trauma related to giving or receiving touch, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to thoughtfully consider whether this offering is right for you.

  • Participants are required to arrive on time to ensure they receive the full explanation of how to communicate boundaries with clarity and respect during the consent and boundaries section at the beginning of the event.

Nectar of the Heart – Cacao Ceremony, Sound Healing & Restorative Yoga.
Sep
7

Nectar of the Heart – Cacao Ceremony, Sound Healing & Restorative Yoga.

5Join Donna and Frankie under the light of the Pisces Full Moon for a nourishing afternoon of cacao, sound, meditation, & movement.

We’ll gather in sacred ceremony designed to help you release tension and reconnect with your heart.

The Pisces Full Moon invites softness, surrender, and deeper connection with your inner world. As a water sign ruled by Neptune, Pisces supports emotional release, intuition, and spiritual reflection. This lunar energy helps dissolve tension, blur the lines between body and spirit, and gently guide you back to trust, flow, and the wisdom of your heart, making it a beautiful ally for practices that involve letting go and coming home to yourself.

This space has been intentionally created to offer a place where your body can rest and feel fully supported. A place to slow down and let go. A space to lay down what you’ve been carrying and take the deep exhale your body has been yearning for. You don’t need to know how to “surrender.” You’ll be guided every step of the way through practices that meet you where you are.

No experience needed, simply an openness to explore what it feels like to create space within and return to yourself.

What to expect:

✨ Ceremonial cacao to warm and open the heart

✨ Medicine Wheel wisdom and elemental rituals to connect with nature and the cycles of life

✨ Gentle somatic movement

✨ Sound journey and guided meditation

✨ Restorative yoga

✨ Pisces Full Moon journaling and reflection

9D Breathwork: From Freedom to Fury.
Sep
8

9D Breathwork: From Freedom to Fury.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

From Fury to Freedom

Buddha says: “Holding on to Anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it on to someone else, but you are the one that is getting burned”

This journey is designed to help people heal through the powerful catalytic transformative emotion of RAGE to move towards inner peace and the freedom of true accurate expression and communication. Breath holds are integrated with intent to activate the body and connect with the sensations of the energy of anger and rage. Powerful visualizations, NLP techniques, binaural beats, subliminal messages, affirmations are all part of this experience to create an immersive experience for breathers to make peace with the wounded unexpressed parts of themselves, forging a path for inner peace and inner resolve.

Healing through rage will help develop more clarity for better articulation in communication, deepen self-connection, and support the transformation of these powerful emotions - enabling more authentic connection with loved ones from a place of understanding and self-compassion.

Brace yourself - this is not for the faint hearted!

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Kindred Singles (20s - 40s) - A Speed Dating Event for Conscious Relating.
Sep
12

Kindred Singles (20s - 40s) - A Speed Dating Event for Conscious Relating.

Are you willing and open for a conscious relationship?

A conscious relationship is one in which both partners feel committed to a sense of purpose, and that purpose is growth. Individual growth. Shared growth as a couple. Collective growth that makes the world a better place.

AND do you ALSO love laughing, playing, meeting kindred people, or having conversations that delve deeper than “How's the weather?”.

Maybe you've also been wondering where on earth you can actually meet epic humans that aren’t posting their best blue steel on online dating apps?

Well it's here kindred friends! It’s speed dating with real life kindred folk who are open to conscious relationship AND deep and meaningful, AND also playful, human connection!

INTENTION and FLOW

While you might meet the love of your life, we don’t want you too fixated on the outcome!

Soooooo…. Cast the intention to meet who it is you are desiring to meet and then…

**LET IT GO and LET FLOW!**

You can now relax into the opportunity for an evening of soulful, nourishing connection meeting some incredible people who are on a similar journey to you.

Let’s play some games, meet some humans, see where the night takes us!

Know that regardless of the outcome of this event, the structured games, the agreements, the sweetness of the outline of the evening will aim to ensure that this is an enjoyable evening for all.

WHO

This is a heterosexually focused event. We plan to have even numbers of men and women and you will be paired to connect with every person of the opposite gender.

(Please note we are running two separate events differentiated by age brackets)

THIS LISTING is for the age bracket of 20's - 40's!

DETAILS of the EVENING

6:15pm onwards - Arrival with Tea

6:30pm - Opening with Agreements

PAIRINGS: You will play a structured game with each person of the opposite gender.

Games will be in alignment with cultivating conscious relating. They will be simple yet meaningful, and include things like answering prompted questions, sentence stems, structured curiosity games, drawing games, and Authentic Relating exercises.

There will be breaks to prevent date fatigue :)

10pm Informal social connection at the end with tea provided. You may choose to skip this part if you'd rather head home upon event close.

------------------------------------------------------------------

TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve never felt so open and safe and held before. The room and the energy was so divine... there was an equalness between us all. It was phenomenal. I came away from this experience with so much more than I thought.”

“I had such a beautiful time. It was so healing and so hope-evoking just to experience that kind of connection and interact with conscious men. It was reaffirming that my standards for intimate connection are not too high after all and that gentle, present, receptive masculinity is out there (I'd only seen it on Instagram 😂).”

“Omg!! What an epic evening. Thank you so much!!”

“So much fun!! I feel invigorated!”

“Super edgy for me, but the facilitators made it really comfortable to be there. I enjoyed the structured games to get to know people on a deeper level.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: we understand the sensitivity and vulnerability of attending an event like this. We endeavour to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and to create an atmosphere where you feel safe and encouraged to express yourself as who you really are.

While the intention of this event is to create opportunities for romantic connection, all connection starts as two humans meeting each other for the first time and finding common ground. We suggest you see this event as an opportunity to connect to the common ground of all people participating rather than only the ones you feel an “attraction” to. This creates more safety for all those involved and also enables YOU to have a really enjoyable experience with all your pairings!

Please contact us if you are unsure about anything about this event or would like more details. We would be really happy to talk to you.

------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO BOOK!

++ Men - pledge your commitment quickly. There are literally women waiting to meet you! ++

Women’s tickets are being released as each man says YES. Women, we suggest you pop your name on the waitlist now so we can easefully release a spot to you.

A note about the waitlist... the waitlist is super essential to this event as there are almost always changes and we call names off of it, even on the day. Trust that if you're meant to be here, an opportunity for you to join will arise. Cupid is clever like that.

Please note there are no refunds for this event. When you book in we ask that you follow through with attending. We of course understand that unforeseen circumstances can occur but PLEASE let us know with as much notice as possible if you won't be joining us. Equal numbers are essential for this event and last minute cancellations are really challenging for us. *No transfers on your ticket.

Energy In Motion - An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey Through the Chakras.

Energy In Motion: An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey

Welcome to Energy In Motion, a transformational event where ecstatic dance, cacao, and emotional release come together to create an unforgettable experience. This is more than an event; it's a journey of self-discovery and expression, offering a blend of personal growth, community connection, and joyful celebration.

Emotion is energy in motion, and this experience is designed to support emotional processing with an undercurrent of bliss. It's about inner exploration and embodied expression, all within a vibrant, party-like atmosphere. Personal development can be fun, and we're here to prove it.

September Event: Solar Plexus Chakra (fire)

This September, Energy In Motion turns our attention to activating and connecting with our solar plexus chakra (Manipura).

This energy centre is associated with our confidence and personal power. Activating this chakra allows us to shine bright and ignite the fire within.

This event is an opportunity to dance AND an invitation to transform through beauty, play, and the pleasure of being fully present in your body.

Experience Highlights

  • Ecstatic Dance: A space for free expression. Let go of inhibition and move to the rhythm. No dance experience needed, just an open heart.

  • Cacao Ceremony: Connect with this heart-opening plant medicine, traditionally known as "food of the Gods." The ceremony invites emotional clarity and deeper connection to self while fueling your desire to dance.

  • Chakra Exploration: Each event focuses on one of the seven chakras. From the root to the crown, we journey through these energetic centers, integrating their wisdom and embracing their power.

Community Guidelines

  • Be present: No phones

  • Be clear: No intoxicants

  • Be embodied: No talking during the dance

  • Be respectful: Consensual contact only

Join us at Energy In Motion for a transformative experience where you can dance, connect, and evolve with a community of kindred spirits.

Together, let’s celebrate the full spectrum of the human experience and transform through the power of movement, music, and shared energy.

Upcoming Dates:

  • Saturday September 13th: Solar Plexus Chakra

  • Saturday October 11th: Sacral Chakra

  • Saturday November 8th: Root Chakra

A multi-dynamic experience of healing sounds, supporting emotional release & nervous system regulation through ancient yogic principles.

Join Elliott for an immersive journey into a world of vibrational therapy, where sound and intention are combined to offer you a space to connect deeply within, ground yourself, and revitalize your system.

Sonic Sanctuary is a powerful 90-minute experience that unites energy activation movements, pranayama (breathwork), meditation, mantra, and ritual with a signature blend of sound healing. The practices are for all experience levels and are effortlessly woven together using a diverse array of traditional and sacred instruments, in the hopes to leave you feeling transported to a level of consciousness that both cleanses and nourishes your overall well-being.

You will be immersed in the soothing sounds of consecrated Quartz Crystal and Tibetan Singing Bowls, Crystal Harp, Monochord, Tongue Drum, Hand-pan, Native American Flutes, Chimes, Tuning Forks, Medicine Drums, World Percussion, Throat Singing, Brainwave Entrainment, and evolving harmonies generated from the bio-electrical impulses of plants. This will be an opportunity for everybody, regardless of their prior experience with spiritual practices or sound journeys, to experience improved sleep and relaxation, improved immune and nervous system health, freedom from stress and anxiety, invigorated mental, emotional, and energetic states of being, emotional release, and a healthy spiritual self-care practice.

This unique experience combines ancient yogic techniques for well-being with modern music therapy technology, offering an opportunity for the down-regulation of the nervous system and the establishment of homeostasis on physical, mental, emotional, and subtle energetic levels. It's a mystical process that incorporates modern insights from science and mind-body research, offering potent and holistic elements of classical yoga.

When you attend a Sonic Sanctuary, you will be invited to come along on a journey of...

- Bathing in healing sounds designed to cleanse your energy centers & reset your nervous system

- Potent experiential pranayama techniques for restoring balance in the system

- Intoxicating meditative processes designed to promote inner health & worldly success

- Revitalizing transcendental mantras utilizing music & Nada yoga principles

- Genuine connections with other authentic seekers of the community

These practices are carefully designed to awaken your divine nature, uplift consciousness, and establish new energy patterns for well-being. This is an opportune moment for cultivating simplicity, clarity, balance, and Life-force energy, holistically leading you toward the passionate, joyful, and possibility-filled Life you were put on this planet to manifest.

How to prepare:

Please bring whatever you need to feel most comfortable. This could be an eye pillow, water, and a journal. You may also consider wearing non-synthetic clothing.

If you feel drawn to bring a small item to charge or cleanse, such as a crystal, you may keep it by you for your practice.

Sep

9D Breathwork: Stress & Anxiety.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Stress & Anxiety

Strap in and prepare for the Stress Relief Sojourn, a targeted breathwork experience meticulously crafted to guide you towards serene tranquility. This journey navigates you through the rough waters of anxiety, liberating you from the tight grip of day-to-day tensions. Incorporating deep belly breathing, coherent breathing, box breathing, and the 4:2:6 method, it blends a harmonious rhythm of relaxation techniques. And for a hint of invigoration, the infinity breathing technique provides a subtle activation, allowing you to gently explore the sensation of energizing your system. Centered around the themes of calm, centeredness, clarity, and serenity, this expedition fosters a profound personal retreat. You'll shed the weight of accumulated stress, making way for mental clarity, peaceful repose, and rejuvenated balance. This soothing voyage serves as a foundation for continued mental wellness and resilience, bolstering the revelation of your calmest self. Embrace the embrace of quietude, enhancing your life with a renewed sense of peace and boundless tranquility.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release.

Sacred Simplicity – A Virgo New Moon + Spring Equinox Ceremony.
Sep
20

Sacred Simplicity – A Virgo New Moon + Spring Equinox Ceremony.

A heart-led cacao & despacho ceremony honouring the Virgo New Moon & Spring Equinox, returning to rhythm, clarity, & sacred simplicity.

Join Donna & Frankie for an afternoon of slowing down, reconnecting, and finding clarity. If you feel yourself craving more space, simplicity and a gentler pace, this ceremony is for you.

We’ll gather in circle to honour the Spring Equinox, the moment when light and dark are in divine balance, and the Virgo New Moon, a time for fresh beginnings and practical steps forward.

In astrology, Virgo is an earth sign connected to organisation, clarity, and tending to the small details that make life flow. A Virgo New Moon is an opportunity to clear away what no longer serves you, focus on what’s truly important, and plant grounded, intentional seeds for the season ahead.

Together, we’ll share ceremonial cacao to open the heart and anchor into the present moment. You’ll then be guided through a sound journey and meditation to bring your body and mind into flow, followed by a despacho offering - a beautiful group ritual where we create a gift for Mother Earth from flowers, leaves, and prayers.

We’ll explore elemental and seasonal practices that connect you with nature’s cycles and your own inner rhythms, before setting intentions for the weeks to come.

There’s no need to prepare anything in advance, simply come as you are.

We’ll move gently through each step, creating space for stillness, reflection, and connection, with the intention of leaving you feeling more grounded, clear, and connected, and with a renewed sense of what matters most in this next chapter.

What to bring:

  • A journal

  • A flower or leaf for the despacho

  • Something soft to wrap around your shoulders

  • A prayer, thought, or wish (it doesn’t have to be fully formed)

Welcoming Spring Wellness Day: A Half-Day of Breathwork, Yoga & Meditation.
Sep

Welcoming Spring Wellness Day: A Half-Day of Breathwork, Yoga & Meditation.

Celebrate the turning of seasons as we step into Spring with soulful practices, sound healing, & conscious community.

Join Kiran Jot as we transition from the stillness of winter into the vibrant energy of spring, a time to awaken and return to heart-centred harmony.

Gather on the eve of the Spring Equinox, a powerful portal for meditation as light and dark equalise, and an opportunity to journey into union, wholeness, holiness, and true alignment once again.

This half-day urban retreat offers a sacred blend of yoga, meditation, mantra, breathwork, and creative expression, culminating in deep rest and energetic balance through a long sound healing journey.

Between practices, enjoy a light, wholesome brunch, yogi tea, golden lattes, and time to connect, rest, and explore the curated selection of conscious yogic and wellness lifestyle products from Kiran Jot Yoga & Wellness Market Collective.

++++++++++++++++++

About your facilitator - Kiran Jot @kiranjot.yoga

Kiran Jot means Ray of Light, and it is the spiritual name given to Kirsten Sikiotis by her yoga teacher, Guru Dass, upon completing her Kundalini Yoga teacher training in Bali, Indonesia, in 2015.

Kundalini Yoga was the awakening practice and the beginning of a long love story of connecting with the self and coming home to the heart of the soul for Kiran Jot. It began as a journey of self-enquiry and discovery in Bali, the Island of the Gods, supported by a community of expats, artists, locals, soul family, and her husband.

It was a natural and smooth transition from the fashion world, where her "first love baby," a swimwear and resort lifestyle brand called Maidenlove, evolved into her namesake Kundalini Yoga and lifestyle brand. Kiran Jot Yoga is for the conscious, awakened fashion lover, where quality, longevity, small runs, and unique design are at the forefront of inspiration and curation.

After eight years living in Bali, Kiran Jot returned to her hometown of Melbourne, where she now lives with her two sons and husband. She teaches Kundalini Yoga and Prenatal Yoga in Elwood, St Kilda, and Windsor, as well as online, and hosts workshops and retreats across her home state of Victoria.

She loves to inspire others to lead with the heart and connect to their highest truth, infinite creative potential, and inner light.

Get in touch with Kiran Jot via email at info@kiranjot.yoga - she would LOVE to connect with you.

Sep
22

9D Breathwork: Transcending Fear.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Transcending Fear

Step into the realm of the Transcending Fear Breathwork Experience, meticulously crafted to redefine your relationship with the shadows of uncertainty. This journey operates as a masterclass in re-education, utilizing the potent synergy of hypnotherapy's trance-inducing language and advanced NLP techniques. By journeying through this experience, you confront fear, allowing it to serve as the gateway to the life you've always envisioned. Central themes of reprogramming, reframing, and empowerment interlace, facilitating a seismic shift in deep-seated beliefs surrounding fear. As you traverse, you'll rewire neural pathways, granting a renewed perspective on harnessing fear as a tool for unparalleled growth. This transformative expedition stands not just as an experience but as a beacon for continued evolution, championing the metamorphosis of your most empowered self. Engage with fear, unlocking a life brimming with potential and uncharted horizons.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

About your facilitator - Lee @ajourneytosacred

Lee is a passionate and dedicated Breathwork Facilitator, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the transformative practice of 9D Breathwork. As a Certified 9D Facilitator, Certified Wim Hof Instructor, and an International Breathwork Foundation Member, Lee combines various modalities to create a safe and nurturing space for participants to explore their inner landscapes. His qualifications as a Reiki Master, NLP Life Coach, Trauma-Informed Coach, Sound Healer, and Human Forest & Men’s Circle Facilitator further enrich his approach, allowing him to connect deeply with individuals on their unique healing journeys.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing and sitting/laying upon the floor with ease. Something to cover your eyes, if you wish to do so (eg. eye mask, scarf). A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).

Personal responsibility: Please make an assessment on whether you are feeling stable and resourced enough to explore the practices on offer in this event.

Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.
Sep

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.

Ever wondered what happens when we create a space to experiment with how we relate to ourselves and others?

This event invites you to step out of your default modes of interaction, drop the masks, and explore authentic relating. Together, we'll play with communication and discovering new ways of being through experiential games.

What to Expect:

- A playful atmosphere to experiment with authentic connection.

- Activities that bring out hidden parts of yourself.

- Communicate differently, with exercises like using only two words to express yourself.

- Reflect on your experiences to deepen self-awareness and connection with self and others.

Why Join?

If you’re ready to play, connect, and explore what it means to be truly present with yourself and others, this is for you. You’ll discover new insights, build meaningful connections, and surprise yourself with what emerges.

About your facilitator: Matthew - @matthews.labs

Matthew has had an interest in self and relational exploration. Curious about how play can be harnessed to find more integrity he has used the experiences of overcoming his struggles as fuel to be in service to others. In the mid 2010s he became a certified massage therapist and yoga teacher. Over the past few years he has deepened and embodied a more expressive relationship with himself and others through exploring workshops and trainings such as Ecstatic Dance, Authentic Relating, ISTA, Breathwork, Process work and the Human Forest, a consensual touch group experience.

His struggle with social anxiety has been deeply supported by Authentic Relating more than he ever could have imagined. Matthew values creating and holding spaces that are kind, clear, expressive, and exploratory. He brings his own unique flavour of play and exploration to his facilitation. He loves holding spaces where people feel safe enough to show up as the beautifully messy humans that we all are. He believes strongly in meeting everyone at their level and that finding coherence as a group involves everyone’s input.

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.
Oct
3

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.

An experiential exploration of discovering the consensual touch we'd truly love to give and receive.

The Human Forest is a consensual, devotional touch experience that invites you to embody your boundaries, stay present, root into your heart, and embrace the essence of oneness through touch. This is a space where time slows, hearts soften, boundaries are honoured, and through the art of deep embodied listening within community, something ancient awakens.

Together, we’ll explore the alchemy of touch as a pathway to presence, where every gesture becomes an offering and every body is honoured. This is a container of sacred play and restorative contact, free from ongoing expectation. A space to explore boundary work, lean into the art of receiving, and be witnessed.

Who this is for:

The Human Forest is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Whether you're an individual seeking deeper connection, a couple exploring the art of non-sexual touch, or a community member curious about the healing power of shared experiences, this space welcomes all who are open to honouring their boundaries and cultivating a sense of oneness.

Whether you're young or young at heart, and whether you identify as male, female, non-binary, or anywhere along the gender spectrum, you’ll find a nurturing environment where your presence is honoured and your heart is safe to open.

Join us for this sacred journey of connection and self-discovery, where every person is celebrated and valued for their unique contribution to the collective experience.

What to expect:

We begin with a grounding circle, connection exercises, and an explanation of the Human Forest framework to create shared language and agreements.

In the Human Forest, we become the ecology, connected through consensual, symbiotic, loving touch. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be gently guided into a world where consent is sacred and boundaries are celebrated.

Half of the room will begin as trees, blindfolded, whose role is to receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room – the critters. Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both roles, twice. Communication within the Forest container will be non-verbal.

These events can be powerful, healing experiences. When the heart opens – through touch, connection, beauty, or presence – the emotional landscape can become vast and deeply personal. Participants may experience love, joy, tenderness, grief, trust, sadness, playfulness, and empowerment.

Our priority is supporting everyone to leave feeling open, cared for, and deeply held in their belonging.

Are you open to trusting yourself?

To being part of a community awakening to the heart-opening, honest, restorative power of non-expectational touch?

Let yourself be held.
Let yourself give.
Let yourself soften into something beautifully human.

What others have said:

“Can we please do this every day!?”

“I just feel like honey melting down a warm stove.”

“I can actually feel my body, myself, and other people. I feel so connected.”

“I’ve never felt so supported in my life.”

“It’s MIND BLOWING to share this much intimacy with so much reverence.”

What to bring:

  • Comfortable, soft clothing for lounging and movement

  • A snack or drink to share afterward in our community time, this is our aftercare

  • An open heart and a curious mind

  • Water

  • A friend or two who might just need this more than they know

++++++++++++++++++

IMPORTANT:

  • In this event, we focus on devotional, loving, and non-sexually oriented touch. Sensual, not sexual. Please note: there is no genital touch at this event, and underwear remains on at all times.

  • There is no kissing or fluid exchange at any time.

  • Participants who know each other - especially those in romantic relationships - are asked to follow the same agreements, rules, and etiquette of the space as everyone else while the event is running (e.g. no kissing your lover in the Forest). This helps avoid confusion about what is and isn’t appropriate and supports the integrity of the container.

  • All of our events have been remarkably healing and heart-opening for many participants, as seen in the testimonials above. That said, this is a touch-focused experience. If you have a history of trauma related to giving or receiving touch, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to thoughtfully consider whether this offering is right for you.

  • Participants are required to arrive on time to ensure they receive the full explanation of how to communicate boundaries with clarity and respect during the consent and boundaries section at the beginning of the event.

Rebecca Day

Embodiment Facilitator | Story Keeper | Guide of Sacred Transformation

Rebecca Lee Day is a weaver of stories - those we've lived, those we've hidden, and those we are ready to reclaim. As a space holder, she creates containers where people can safely explore the unspoken narratives held in their bodies, giving voice to the truths buried beneath silence, survival, and self-doubt.

Her work is rooted in deep listening - listening to the body's subtle language, to the nervous system's rhythms, and to the stories that long to be witnessed without judgement. Through guided embodiment, intuitive practices, and powerful presence, Rebecca supports individuals and groups in returning to wholeness - not by changing who they are, but by remembering who they've always been.

With a grounded, nurturing presence and a fierce commitment to authenticity, Rebecca invites people into spaces of transformation where healing happens not through fixing, but through feeling, witnessing, and reclaiming.

October DANCE TRIBE: A Sober Dance Party Experiment by Music is Medicine
Oct

October DANCE TRIBE: A Sober Dance Party Experiment by Music is Medicine

Dance, connect, and celebrate in a vibrant, clear-minded space with incredible DJs, immersive lighting, and pure, high-energy movement.

Welcome to Dance Tribe, where the energy of nightclub culture meets the clarity of a sober dance floor.

This is not ecstatic dance. This is not a typical club night. This is a space where we come together to dance, connect, and celebrate, free from alcohol and substances.

With incredible DJs, immersive lighting, and a vibrant atmosphere, Dance Tribe is about pure movement, music, and community. It’s a place where you can let loose, meet like-minded people, and experience the joy of dance in a fun, safe, and sustainable way.

💃 🕺 Why we dance

For years, dancers have found joy in movement. Whether in clubs, at festivals, or under the stars in nature. But what truly happens when people dance together?

Entrainment, a phenomenon studied in music therapy, reveals how heartbeats synchronize with the rhythm of the music and the movements of those around them. This explains why dancefloor moments feel so deeply connective. Minutes turn into hours as breath, heartbeat, and body movements align with the beat, creating a powerful sense of unity.

The science of entrainment explores how auditory rhythmic patterns influence motor responses, a key concept in neurologic music therapy. This phenomenon, known as rhythmic entrainment, allows movements to synchronize naturally with music, as seen in dancing, drumming, and other musical activities.

Who this event is for:

Dance Tribe is for anyone who loves to dance and connect. Whether a seasoned dancefloor enthusiast or someone looking for a fresh way to enjoy music and movement, this space offers an uplifting and sustainable approach to nightlife.

For those seeking more meaningful connections beyond the usual clubbing experience, Dance Tribe provides an opportunity to engage with music, community, and self-expression on a deeper level, without the addition of alcohol or substances.

Whether you're a festival lover, a longtime club-goer ready for a new kind of night out, a conscious movement enthusiast, or simply someone who thrives on the energy of a dancefloor, this space is designed to be welcoming, vibrant, and nourishing.

Dance Tribe Sundays is the perfect way to move, connect, and start the week feeling refreshed and inspired.

What to expect:

Arrival – Settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy delicious snacks while soaking in the warm-up DJ set.

Opening Circle – A short welcome to set intentions, allowing connection with the group, and tune into the space.

Dance Journey Begins – The main DJ sets take over, guiding you through deep grooves, euphoric highs, and full-bodied movement. Let loose, feel the bass, and dance like nobody's watching.

Sound Healing & Relaxation – Wind down with soothing sounds, allowing your body to integrate the energy of the dance.

Closing Circle – A space to reflect, share, and integrate the experience before transitioning back into daily life.

Official Close 6:00pm – For those who wish to stay, enjoy tea and conversation with your Dance Tribe. Some may head out afterward, while others may simply float home, ready to embrace the week ahead.

Dancing is a powerful way to shake off stress and boost your mood with high-vibe movement. It strengthens bonds with others through music and dance, creating a deep sense of connection. The freedom of movement brings pure joy, while the experience leaves you feeling refreshed, present, and grounded. As rhythm, breath, and movement awaken the body, a sense of vitality and upliftment emerges. Beyond the dance floor, it contributes to overall physical and mental well-being, serving as one of the best full-body workouts. The energy and inspiration from the experience can carry into the week ahead, bringing a renewed sense of enthusiasm and clarity.

9D Breathwork: Grief & Loss.
Oct
6

9D Breathwork: Grief & Loss.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Grief & Loss

This journey is designed to gently and compassionately guide participants through the full spectrum of grief, returning them to a state of love. We begin with 17 minutes of downregulation breathwork to create relaxation, calm, and a sense of safety. Following this, the active breathing session navigates emotions associated with grief and loss - from numbness to anger, blame, shame, guilt, remorse, and regret - ultimately leading to acceptance and letting go. The session integrates techniques such as subliminal messages, binaural beats, visualizations, NLP, and hypnosis to release stuck emotions and belief patterns. Participants may emerge feeling lighter, more connected, and with a profound sense of relief and acceptance.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Kindred Singles (20s - 40s) - A Speed Dating Event for Conscious Relating.
Oct
17

Kindred Singles (20s - 40s) - A Speed Dating Event for Conscious Relating.

Are you willing and open for a conscious relationship?

A conscious relationship is one in which both partners feel committed to a sense of purpose, and that purpose is growth. Individual growth. Shared growth as a couple. Collective growth that makes the world a better place.

AND do you ALSO love laughing, playing, meeting kindred people, or having conversations that delve deeper than “How's the weather?”.

Maybe you've also been wondering where on earth you can actually meet epic humans that aren’t posting their best blue steel on online dating apps?

Well it's here kindred friends! It’s speed dating with real life kindred folk who are open to conscious relationship AND deep and meaningful, AND also playful, human connection!

INTENTION and FLOW

While you might meet the love of your life, we don’t want you too fixated on the outcome!

Soooooo…. Cast the intention to meet who it is you are desiring to meet and then…

**LET IT GO and LET FLOW!**

You can now relax into the opportunity for an evening of soulful, nourishing connection meeting some incredible people who are on a similar journey to you.

Let’s play some games, meet some humans, see where the night takes us!

Know that regardless of the outcome of this event, the structured games, the agreements, the sweetness of the outline of the evening will aim to ensure that this is an enjoyable evening for all.

WHO

This is a heterosexually focused event. We plan to have even numbers of men and women and you will be paired to connect with every person of the opposite gender.

(Please note we are running two separate events differentiated by age brackets)

THIS LISTING is for the age bracket of 20's - 40's!

DETAILS of the EVENING

6:15pm onwards - Arrival with Tea

6:30pm - Opening with Agreements

PAIRINGS: You will play a structured game with each person of the opposite gender.

Games will be in alignment with cultivating conscious relating. They will be simple yet meaningful, and include things like answering prompted questions, sentence stems, structured curiosity games, drawing games, and Authentic Relating exercises.

There will be breaks to prevent date fatigue :)

10pm Informal social connection at the end with tea provided. You may choose to skip this part if you'd rather head home upon event close.

------------------------------------------------------------------

TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve never felt so open and safe and held before. The room and the energy was so divine... there was an equalness between us all. It was phenomenal. I came away from this experience with so much more than I thought.”

“I had such a beautiful time. It was so healing and so hope-evoking just to experience that kind of connection and interact with conscious men. It was reaffirming that my standards for intimate connection are not too high after all and that gentle, present, receptive masculinity is out there (I'd only seen it on Instagram 😂).”

“Omg!! What an epic evening. Thank you so much!!”

“So much fun!! I feel invigorated!”

“Super edgy for me, but the facilitators made it really comfortable to be there. I enjoyed the structured games to get to know people on a deeper level.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: we understand the sensitivity and vulnerability of attending an event like this. We endeavour to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and to create an atmosphere where you feel safe and encouraged to express yourself as who you really are.

While the intention of this event is to create opportunities for romantic connection, all connection starts as two humans meeting each other for the first time and finding common ground. We suggest you see this event as an opportunity to connect to the common ground of all people participating rather than only the ones you feel an “attraction” to. This creates more safety for all those involved and also enables YOU to have a really enjoyable experience with all your pairings!

Please contact us if you are unsure about anything about this event or would like more details. We would be really happy to talk to you.

------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO BOOK!

++ Men - pledge your commitment quickly. There are literally women waiting to meet you! ++

Women’s tickets are being released as each man says YES. Women, we suggest you pop your name on the waitlist now so we can easefully release a spot to you.

A note about the waitlist... the waitlist is super essential to this event as there are almost always changes and we call names off of it, even on the day. Trust that if you're meant to be here, an opportunity for you to join will arise. Cupid is clever like that.

Please note there are no refunds for this event. When you book in we ask that you follow through with attending. We of course understand that unforeseen circumstances can occur but PLEASE let us know with as much notice as possible if you won't be joining us. Equal numbers are essential for this event and last minute cancellations are really challenging for us. *No transfers on your ticket.

9D Breathwork: Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints.
Oct
20

9D Breathwork: Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints.

Welcome to the transformative realm of the 9D Breathwork Journey for Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints - an immersive exploration dedicated to resolving the imprints of our childhood experiences. Delve deep into the healing process as we address the profound wounds of premature separation from love, rejection, abandonment, shaming, and lack of presence. These imprints, carried from our formative years, silently shape our adult lives, revealing themselves through various challenges, including victim mentality, trust and intimacy issues, co-dependency, relationship struggles, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and more.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

About your facilitator - Lee @ajourneytosacred

Lee is a passionate and dedicated Breathwork Facilitator, bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the transformative practice of 9D Breathwork. As a Certified 9D Facilitator, Certified Wim Hof Instructor, and an International Breathwork Foundation Member, Lee combines various modalities to create a safe and nurturing space for participants to explore their inner landscapes. His qualifications as a Reiki Master, NLP Life Coach, Trauma-Informed Coach, Sound Healer, and Human Forest & Men’s Circle Facilitator further enrich his approach, allowing him to connect deeply with individuals on their unique healing journeys.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing and sitting/laying upon the floor with ease. Something to cover your eyes, if you wish to do so (eg. eye mask, scarf). A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).

Personal responsibility: Please make an assessment on whether you are feeling stable and resourced enough to explore the practices on offer in this event.

No Photo/Video Content Will Be Captured: We recognise that being at an event where content is being captured can impact the personal comfort and nervous system regulation of our community. As such, it should be known upfront that this event is a photo and video free space. No content will be captured.

Arrival: Endeavour to arrive between 6:45pm - 7:00pm. To preserve the experience for all involved, doors will close at 7:15pm. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

Public transport - tram: Both the number 6 tram & 78 tram stop on the corner of High St/Chapel St. This is stop 31 on the number 6 tram (Moreland/Glen Iris) & stop 45 on the number 78 tram (North Richmond/Balaclava).

Public transport - train: Both Prahran & Windsor stations along the Sandringham Line will get you walking distance to Centre of You.

Finding Centre of You: Centre of You is nestled within the arcade that Chapel St Bazaar is in (217 Chapel St). It is up a flight of stairs with a wide landing at the half-way-point. Unfortunately, this current version of Centre of You does not have a wheelchair accessible lift. If you could use support in getting up the stairs or would like to discuss ways to make your experience at Centre of You more comfortable, please reach out via hello@centreofyou.com.au or via DM over on Centre of You Instagram.

Multidimensional Heart Light Language Transmission – Awaken Your Heart.
Oct
25

Multidimensional Heart Light Language Transmission – Awaken Your Heart.

Release past-life patterns, reset your nervous system & align with Soul Truth through multidimensional heart activations & Light Language.

Are you ready to release past life energetic patterns blocking the heart chakra?

Currently, there are many cosmic and planetary shifts impacting both the individual and the collective consciousness. We are going through a rapid Soul embodiment ascension - a deeper connection with your higher self - causing a purification of outdated patterns held within the Lightbody and the mental plane. This clearing process can cause strong emotions to come to the surface, forcing us to re-examine our life path and make new choices more in alignment with our Soul Truth.

What to expect:

At this event, Michael, the facilitator, will be channelling the higher Soul Light of the group, connecting with ascended energies and galactic frequencies to support a deep energetic healing for the heart centre. You are invited to join him for this unique event. Michael works with both individuals and the group, providing energy healing in English and Light language. These activations will support Soul retrieval, accessing the energy of your multidimensional heart chakra to align all soul extensions into the one physical expression.

Join Michael for a profound spiritual connection!

Secure a spot now and embark on this journey: a nervous system reset, the gentle and respectful release of past life trauma, somatic awareness exercises for Soul embodiment, and Light Language sound healing that transcends conscious thought - targeting and activating the cell body and DNA.

Participants are encouraged to bring their crystals to support the session and amplify its potency.

Most importantly, this is an opportunity to come together and experience connection, healing, and expansion as a Soul family.

++++++++++++++++++

About your facilitator - Michael Muir @soul_magic_collective I YouTube I Website

Michael is a transformational healer, teacher, somatic psychotherapist, astral shaman, and Light Language conduit for higher galactic frequencies. His soul’s purpose is to channel energy from various realms as a vehicle for healing and soul remembrance.

After a 2013 trip to Uluru, in the heart of Australia, Michael developed a strong connection with Pleiadian energy. This marked the beginning of his journey into psychic expansion and an increasing connection to interdimensional frequencies and otherworldly beings.

This is where his traditional healing background as a somatic psychotherapist expanded into quantum realms. Michael began accessing divine keys and codes, integrating them into the therapeutic space to activate clients’ DNA and Akashic memory.

Michael works directly with lightbody and DNA activation through the 12 chakras. In his workshops, this process links participants to astrological alignments and portals. In one-on-one sessions, it supports karmic and past-life clearing while deepening connections to the multi-dimensional soul.

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.
Oct
25

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.

Ever wondered what happens when we create a space to experiment with how we relate to ourselves and others?

This event invites you to step out of your default modes of interaction, drop the masks, and explore authentic relating. Together, we'll play with communication and discovering new ways of being through experiential games.

What to Expect:

- A playful atmosphere to experiment with authentic connection.

- Activities that bring out hidden parts of yourself.

- Communicate differently, with exercises like using only two words to express yourself.

- Reflect on your experiences to deepen self-awareness and connection with self and others.

Why Join?

If you’re ready to play, connect, and explore what it means to be truly present with yourself and others, this is for you. You’ll discover new insights, build meaningful connections, and surprise yourself with what emerges.

About your facilitator: Matthew - @matthews.labs

Matthew has had an interest in self and relational exploration. Curious about how play can be harnessed to find more integrity he has used the experiences of overcoming his struggles as fuel to be in service to others. In the mid 2010s he became a certified massage therapist and yoga teacher. Over the past few years he has deepened and embodied a more expressive relationship with himself and others through exploring workshops and trainings such as Ecstatic Dance, Authentic Relating, ISTA, Breathwork, Process work and the Human Forest, a consensual touch group experience.

His struggle with social anxiety has been deeply supported by Authentic Relating more than he ever could have imagined. Matthew values creating and holding spaces that are kind, clear, expressive, and exploratory. He brings his own unique flavour of play and exploration to his facilitation. He loves holding spaces where people feel safe enough to show up as the beautifully messy humans that we all are. He believes strongly in meeting everyone at their level and that finding coherence as a group involves everyone’s input.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Reconnecting to Your Inner Child

This experience is perfectly tailored for anyone that is struggling with deeply connecting with themselves because of the residue from the traumatized child within that we abandoned along the way to be able to deal and cope with life’s struggles which led us to becoming fragmented and showing up in life and in our relationships by dissociation, avoidance, anxious attachment and so much more.

This journey is optimal for anyone that is looking to reconnect the fragmented parts of themselves by rewriting the narrative of their self abandonment so they can rebirth themselves in their adulthood as an integrated whole. This journey is definitely not for the faint of heart as it will gently encourage you to look at the parts of yourself that you may have abandoned and left in the basement of your shadows along the way. By partaking in this journey, participants will come out the other side feeling a sense of deep connection with themselves, a renewed perspective on their self image and life and a deeper love for themselves.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.
Nov
15

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.

An experiential exploration of discovering the consensual touch we'd truly love to give and receive.

The Human Forest is a consensual, devotional touch experience that invites you to embody your boundaries, stay present, root into your heart, and embrace the essence of oneness through touch. This is a space where time slows, hearts soften, boundaries are honoured, and through the art of deep embodied listening within community, something ancient awakens.

Together, we’ll explore the alchemy of touch as a pathway to presence, where every gesture becomes an offering and every body is honoured. This is a container of sacred play and restorative contact, free from ongoing expectation. A space to explore boundary work, lean into the art of receiving, and be witnessed.

Who this is for:

The Human Forest is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Whether you're an individual seeking deeper connection, a couple exploring the art of non-sexual touch, or a community member curious about the healing power of shared experiences, this space welcomes all who are open to honouring their boundaries and cultivating a sense of oneness.

Whether you're young or young at heart, and whether you identify as male, female, non-binary, or anywhere along the gender spectrum, you’ll find a nurturing environment where your presence is honoured and your heart is safe to open.

Join us for this sacred journey of connection and self-discovery, where every person is celebrated and valued for their unique contribution to the collective experience.

What to expect:

We begin with a grounding circle, connection exercises, and an explanation of the Human Forest framework to create shared language and agreements.

In the Human Forest, we become the ecology, connected through consensual, symbiotic, loving touch. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be gently guided into a world where consent is sacred and boundaries are celebrated.

Half of the room will begin as trees, blindfolded, whose role is to receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room – the critters. Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both roles, twice. Communication within the Forest container will be non-verbal.

These events can be powerful, healing experiences. When the heart opens – through touch, connection, beauty, or presence – the emotional landscape can become vast and deeply personal. Participants may experience love, joy, tenderness, grief, trust, sadness, playfulness, and empowerment.

Our priority is supporting everyone to leave feeling open, cared for, and deeply held in their belonging.

Are you open to trusting yourself?

To being part of a community awakening to the heart-opening, honest, restorative power of non-expectational touch?

Let yourself be held.
Let yourself give.
Let yourself soften into something beautifully human.

What others have said:

“Can we please do this every day!?”

“I just feel like honey melting down a warm stove.”

“I can actually feel my body, myself, and other people. I feel so connected.”

“I’ve never felt so supported in my life.”

“It’s MIND BLOWING to share this much intimacy with so much reverence.”

What to bring:

  • Comfortable, soft clothing for lounging and movement

  • A snack or drink to share afterward in our community time, this is our aftercare

  • An open heart and a curious mind

  • Water

  • A friend or two who might just need this more than they know

++++++++++++++++++

IMPORTANT:

  • In this event, we focus on devotional, loving, and non-sexually oriented touch. Sensual, not sexual. Please note: there is no genital touch at this event, and underwear remains on at all times.

  • There is no kissing or fluid exchange at any time.

  • Participants who know each other - especially those in romantic relationships - are asked to follow the same agreements, rules, and etiquette of the space as everyone else while the event is running (e.g. no kissing your lover in the Forest). This helps avoid confusion about what is and isn’t appropriate and supports the integrity of the container.

  • All of our events have been remarkably healing and heart-opening for many participants, as seen in the testimonials above. That said, this is a touch-focused experience. If you have a history of trauma related to giving or receiving touch, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to thoughtfully consider whether this offering is right for you.

  • Participants are required to arrive on time to ensure they receive the full explanation of how to communicate boundaries with clarity and respect during the consent and boundaries section at the beginning of the event.

Rebecca Day

Embodiment Facilitator | Story Keeper | Guide of Sacred Transformation

Rebecca Lee Day is a weaver of stories - those we've lived, those we've hidden, and those we are ready to reclaim. As a space holder, she creates containers where people can safely explore the unspoken narratives held in their bodies, giving voice to the truths buried beneath silence, survival, and self-doubt.

Her work is rooted in deep listening - listening to the body's subtle language, to the nervous system's rhythms, and to the stories that long to be witnessed without judgement. Through guided embodiment, intuitive practices, and powerful presence, Rebecca supports individuals and groups in returning to wholeness - not by changing who they are, but by remembering who they've always been.

With a grounded, nurturing presence and a fierce commitment to authenticity, Rebecca invites people into spaces of transformation where healing happens not through fixing, but through feeling, witnessing, and reclaiming.

Feldenkrais + Dance – Awaken Awareness & Expressive Flow.
Aug
28

Feldenkrais + Dance – Awaken Awareness & Expressive Flow.

A gentle blend of Feldenkrais + dance to release tension, expand awareness, & move with freedom.

Join us for a nourishing 90-minute journey blending the gentle intelligence of the Feldenkrais Method with the expressive freedom of dance. This workshop invites you to slow down, sense, and move from within.

We’ll begin with subtle, floor-based Feldenkrais movement sequences to awaken body awareness, melt tension, and reconnect with your natural movement patterns. From this grounded state, we’ll transition into guided improvisational dance, designed to help unlock creativity, self-expression and embodied presence.

No dance experience is needed, just a curious body and mind. This is a space to move authentically, tapping into your sensitivity and joy.

For anyone seeking a more alive connection with their body.

What is Feldenkrais Method?

The Feldenkrais Method is a gentle practice of remembering how to move with ease. Through subtle, curious movements, it invites us to tune into the intelligence of the body, unwind tension, and rediscover fluidity. It’s a return to sensation, to possibility, to moving not from effort, but from awareness.

What to expect:

  • Guided Feldenkrais explorations to soften tension, increase mobility, and enhance body awareness

  • A somatic approach to dance that prioritises sensation over performance

  • Space to move intuitively, playfully, and with authenticity

  • Nervous system–sensitive facilitation that supports safety and self-regulation

  • A welcoming, non-judgmental environment for all bodies and levels of experience

  • Integration of stillness, movement, and reflection

Come as you are, no choreography, no pressure, just an invitation to return to your body with presence and care.

Her approach is trauma-informed and nervous-system-aware, blending the subtle intelligence of the Feldenkrais Method with the expressive freedom of dance and the grounding presence of yoga.

9D Breathwork - The 9DMT Trip.
Aug
25

9D Breathwork - The 9DMT Trip.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Elementals Love Space: Cacao Ceremony + Soulful Sound Energy Healing.
Aug
23

Elementals Love Space: Cacao Ceremony + Soulful Sound Energy Healing.

A nurturing, peaceful journey of self-connection as you soften your heart & receive with acceptance & unconditional love.

You’re invited to join Simone + Julie in an evening of soulful expansion of your true self’s vibration, embracing a journey of remembrance and inner awakening.

This meditative journey is intended to facilitate a deeper state of being, allowing you to land exactly where you need to be and receive the energy vibrations of cacao plant medicine, earthly and ethereal sounds, and Universal Reiki Energy Healing, all guiding you back home into your heart space.

Sacred Cacao Ceremony

The evening will be led by a heart-opening Cacao Ceremony. Simone will open the space container with a cacao blessing, honouring all the lands and our ancestors. With cacao in your body vessel, you will be guided into a deep meditative state.

Cacao is a potent plant medicine that opens the heart space and allows the unveiling of the heart’s shadows. Bliss, joy, love, peace, sadness, or a deep sense of stillness may be experienced.

Remember that any arising emotion is serving you perfectly, so the invitation is to allow yourself to surrender and feel fully, without any judgement, for your personal purpose of empowerment, growth, healing and expansion.

Shamanic Drum Journey

Meanwhile, the cacao medicina will move through all the layers of your being. You will be guided in an expansive Shamanic Drum Journey, where the drum will play its own rhythm, blending with the energy of the space.

Shamanic drumming is one of the oldest forms of vibrational healing and is known to bring the listener into different layers of their subconscious, as the drumbeat connects you with the natural beat of your heart and Mother Earth. You will experience a journey within yourself and may receive information, communicate with your guides or higher self, within a held and intentional space.

Sound + Reiki Energy Healing

Be lovingly guided and held - physically, emotionally and energetically - through the vibrational healing frequencies of Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls, blessed Tibetan Singing Bowls, and other Earth-grounding instruments to help you reconnect and align with Pachamama and the guidance within you.

This combination of alchemised live vibrational music is one of the most soothing therapies to transmute healing energies already contained within your own mind, body and soul frequencies.

The space will also be infused with the highest vibration of pure unconditional love and divine light, as we channel Reiki Energy Healing into your energetic field while you journey through time and space within yourself - supporting your ongoing path of etheric healing and personal transformation.

About your facilitators -

SIMONE (he/him) | IG: elementalslovealoha | Website

Simone upholds a special relationship with the Elements and Mother Earth. This relationship stems from many lifetimes of exploring rituals and undertaking sacred plant medicine ceremonies, following shamanic ancient traditions + the rites of passage and honouring his plants and human teachers.

He came into his body in the Northern Hemisphere of the planet, in a little town surrounded by mountains, rivers, forest and wildlife. Simone has been moving around since a young age looking for a place to call home, when he finally realised that this place is within him, in the heart centre, Anahata.

Simone is a space holder, ceremonialist, Reiki master, sound healer and Yoga teacher who draws upon different tools in his offerings, in reverence of the lineage that he has be initiated in as: Reiki energy healing, guided meditations, Himalayan Kundalini kriyas, Pranayama, sound and sacred Cacao Ceremonies. The connection between Simone and Cacao medicina and the Elements is profound, full of respect and reverence.

Julie (she/her) | IG: @zeninn.space | Website

Julie, heart-led President of zeninn.space is too a Reiki energy practitioner, a SoulNar Sound and Energy Healing Therapist and Sound Healing Facilitator.

Julie created zeninn.space to be a safe and nurturing environment to warmly welcome her clients to receive universal healing energies, and have the opportunity to be immersed in vibrational healing frequencies through her passion of sound therapy. ‘zeninn.space’ is purposely spelt with two letter ‘n’ to guide you to not only ‘feel’ your heart space, but to truly go deeper within yourself.

Trusting in divine guidance, Julie’s holistic approach through energetic, mindful practices and meditative states, makes her a true connector to inner peace, love, harmony, and she is deeply passionate in sharing this profound experience with as many kindred souls as celestially able.

A few notes from Simone + Julie:

Cacao: It is highly recommended to refrain from ingesting caffeine after your morning breakfast. Cacao contains theobromine, a stimulant similar to caffeine, and we wouldn’t want to overstimulate your body system.

We recommend having a large lunch no later than 3 hours before the ceremony, so your time spent journeying is on a relatively empty stomach.

Please let us know if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you are on heart medication, MAOIs, or SSRI-based antidepressants, so we can adjust your dosage and check in with you.

* This event is not suitable for under 18s or for anyone under the effects of drugs and/or alcohol. *

We honour the traditional custodians of the land, the Wurundjeri people, all the Indigenous, the First Nation People and all the Elders past, present + emerging.”

Breathwork Ceremony – A New Moon Decode.
Aug
22

Breathwork Ceremony – A New Moon Decode.

A transformative evening of breathwork, meditation, & self-enquiry to release the old, set new intentions, & align with the New Moon.

What to expect:

In our fast-paced world, where stress and ‘busyness’ seem to have become the widely accepted ‘normal’, finding moments of peace and inner calm has become more essential than ever. This workshop invites you into a space of uncovering hidden truths, unlocking insight, and reprogramming from within - all aligned with the energy of the New Moon.

The New Moon represents:

  • New beginnings

  • Darkness as fertile ground

  • Turning inward

  • Letting go of the old

  • Setting powerful new intentions

It’s a time to quiet the noise, access deeper layers of the self, and redefine what’s next.

Through deep, rhythmic breathing, we’ll embark on a journey of self-exploration, fostering greater understanding, healing, and self-compassion. Breathwork allows us to bypass the conscious mind, opening a direct pathway to the subconscious - where our inner wisdom resides.

We hope to provide a supportive space where participants feel held and encouraged to nurture themselves and embark on a journey of deep self-enquiry. With gentle guidance, you’ll be encouraged to embrace vulnerability, let go of defences, and allow yourself to ‘feel’. As you connect with the core of your being, you may uncover old memories, feel a wave of emotions, or simply experience a blissful state of being. These moments of reconnection can lead to profound shifts, helping you heal emotional wounds, overcome limiting beliefs, and access a deeper sense of self-love.

Throughout the session, we will also incorporate guided meditations, reflective exercises, and integrative practices to help you fully process and integrate your experience. We hope you will leave feeling lighter, more connected, and empowered to continue your journey of self-discovery and healing. At the end of the event, there will be some additional time provided for you to stick around and connect with other like-minded people.

About your facilitator: Katharina @seeds.of.prana

Kathy is a certified Breathwork coach with over 500 hours of training and years of experience in the field. She is also a Practitioner of Neuro Transformation Therapy and holds certifications in Reiki Level 1+2. Her method is a unique blend of breathwork, subconscious reprogramming, intuitive movement practices, sound and guided meditation. She has been holding breathwork sessions since 2021 and her focus is on providing a more holistic Yin approach to breathwork. By offering and applying the knowledge and teachings that have served her along her own transformational journey, Kathi helps people improve their physical, mental & emotional well-being.

A few notes directly from Kathy:

How to prepare:

  • No prior experience required

  • Please don't eat a large or heavy meal within 2 hours of the session. We don't want to do Breathwork on a full belly (a light snack like banana, nuts etc. is great)

  • Avoid coffee or other stimulating drinks (Cacao would be okay)

  • Optional - an eye mask or somethibng to cover your eyes, journal & pen

  • Read the CONTRAINDICATIONS below carefully

On the 'work':

The majority of breathers first experience deep (and at times, intense) emotional release or catharsis. It is possible to feel anything from grief/pain/discomfort to ecstasy/joy/bliss and anything in between. Again, these are parts of self that are not being met in waking life (even ecstasy and bliss can be energies that are being unconsciously repressed) and thus want the freedom to be completely and uninhibitedly expressed in a safe container of exploration, as we will create.

However, not everyone is ready for this kind of transformative dive, especially if they are new to inner work and self-awareness. And, as always, we honour where each person is on their path of healing and awakening. That said, *please have a self-check in and make sure you are fully ready for a deep and powerful journey into your being. This also includes a willingness to meet any discomfort, hurt, grief, pain or wounding that you are unknowingly holding onto.

Contraindications

If you are on the contraindication list, you are *not* a candidate for the full breathwork technique, however Katharina will happily discuss modified, gentle breathwork with you for a later date. Please do not continue to book the session if you have any of the contraindications listed below.

You may email Katharina at seedsofprana@gmail.com to discuss a more gentle alternative.

  • Pregnancy (at any stage)

  • Severe PTSD or trauma

  • Actively using recreational drugs

Aug

9D Breathwork - Healing Ancestral Trauma.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Healing Ancestral Trauma

Break free from intergenerational trauma - the root cause of human suffering. This transformative journey is for those seeking to sever the chains of these struggles and halt the cycle of trauma. Unresolved intergenerational trauma manifests as chronic anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and disconnection. Experience profound healing and resilience as you release these burdens. Rewrite your narrative, restore harmony within, and create a legacy of empowerment. Liberate yourself from the cycles of suffering and pave the way for a brighter future.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Aug

Energy In Motion - An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey Through the Chakras.

Energy In Motion: An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey

Welcome to Energy In Motion, a transformational event where ecstatic dance, cacao, and emotional release come together to create an unforgettable experience. This is more than an event; it's a journey of self-discovery and expression, offering a blend of personal growth, community connection, and joyful celebration.

Emotion is energy in motion, and this experience is designed to support emotional processing with an undercurrent of bliss. It's about inner exploration and embodied expression, all within a vibrant, party-like atmosphere. Personal development can be fun, and we're here to prove it.

August Event: Heart Chakra (Air)

As we reach the middle of our chakra journey, Energy In Motion is taking to opening our hearts this August.

The heart chakra, also known as the anahata, is the energy centre that is associated with unconditional love, compassion, joy and forgiveness. The bridge between the lower and upper chakras, the heart chakra connects the manifest world with the spiritual realms.

The anahata chakra is associated with the element of air, which like love is both inside us and all around us.

Join us this month as we flow and move with the energy and intention of love.

This event is an opportunity to dance AND an invitation to transform through beauty, play, and the pleasure of being fully present in your body.

Experience Highlights

  • Ecstatic Dance: A space for free expression. Let go of inhibition and move to the rhythm. No dance experience needed, just an open heart.

  • Cacao Ceremony: Connect with this heart-opening plant medicine, traditionally known as "food of the Gods." The ceremony invites emotional clarity and deeper connection to self while fueling your desire to dance.

  • Chakra Exploration: Each event focuses on one of the seven chakras. From the root to the crown, we journey through these energetic centers, integrating their wisdom and embracing their power.

Community Guidelines

  • Be present: No phones

  • Be clear: No intoxicants

  • Be embodied: No talking during the dance

  • Be respectful: Consensual contact only

Join us at Energy In Motion for a transformative experience where you can dance, connect, and evolve with a community of kindred spirits.

Together, let’s celebrate the full spectrum of the human experience and transform through the power of movement, music, and shared energy.

Upcoming Dates:

  • Saturday August 16th: Heart Chakra

  • Saturday September 13th: Solar Plexus Chakra

  • Saturday October 11th: Sacral Chakra

  • Saturday November 8th: Root Chakra

About your hosts: Shahna Sarpi - @shahnasarpi

It was love at first dance, when Shahna stepped onto an ecstatic dance dance-floor. She saw the immense power in embodied movement and authentic expression, coming home to hear body and her self and feeling the liberation that comes from allowing the energy to move through her. Since that time, she has interwoven these lessons and practices into what she does personally, but also professionally.

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Having seen the immense power in somatic tools, emotional health and authentic expression from personal experience, Shahna now guides people home to their most empowered selves, through the body.

Guest DJ: Lo.Tess - @lo.tess

Lo.tess is a Melbourne-based DJ, multidimensional artist and embodiment facilitator carving her own path in the worlds of bass music, ecstatic dance and creative expression.

With a dynamic and powerful style, she weaves a fresh fusion of fiery dubstep, ethereal future bass, trap, and tribal accents infused with eastern rhythms, global, and temple bass music.

Her sound drips with bass-heavy depths and luminous sacred spaces, offering a wild, sassy, and fully embodied experience.

Her Ecstatic Dance journeys are potent explorations through multi-layered genres that move from sensitive sounds that evoke emotion and inner stillness, to explosive and fun booty shaking, spicy rhythms to open space for expansion, and release, with each set being curated with intention to transcend into divine dance expression.

Guest Facilitator: Eliza Hilmer - @eliza.with.love

Eliza Hilmer is a talented yoga teacher, kriya breathwork facilitator and the founder of Feel Good Flows, an all inclusive yoga community.

Having suffered recurring severe joint dislocations growing up, her childhood was spent in physical rehabilitation rather than on any running track or podium. She was told by surgeons that her future would be one of life long pain management and dislocations unless she went ahead with reconstructive surgery… “that’s just the way it is in your case.” After accepting her fate, one day a distant relative suggested an alternative – yoga. She resisted, avoided, finding every moment of it agonising. Then one day everything changed. Her joints slowly strengthened, the suffering began to dissolve, and as a result the most important part of it all happened… her heart deeply softened and opened.

12 years later, her knees still shake when she’s challenged, her voice still trembles when she’s nervous, and her heart still races when she’s about to do something for the first time: and it’s all good – they’re exactly the moments she loves, for it’s when she feels the most alive. She pinches herself every day realising she has the privilege and pleasure to stand before hundreds of people sharing the practice that – hand on heart – saved her life.

Things to note:

Ticket cost is $50.00 if purchasing on the day of the event.

Coming Home to Yourself – An Intimate Journey of Remembering.
Aug
16

Coming Home to Yourself – An Intimate Journey of Remembering.

A soul-led journey to reclaim your truth, release old patterns, & return to the wholeness of who you truly are.

Join Jinny (Virginia Klink)- psychotherapist, facilitator, and lover of all things esoteric - as she guides you through an intimate journey of remembering the sovereign, embodied truth of who you are at a soul level.

Using bilateral stimulation, binaural beats, and breathwork, you’ll be gently guided into altered states of consciousness, inviting access to the subconscious, the uncovering of limiting beliefs, and nervous system reintegration.

Through this process you may powerfully reclaim the parts of yourself once rejected, avoided or disowned. This is a return to wholeness and inner alignment - and when we are aligned, our actions become those of nature.

Our deeds move in rhythm with truth.

This is an invitation not just to do deeper work, but to transform inwardly - so you can create a new world, unburdened by the old pain, the old anger, the old hurt, and the old frustrations that once kept you small.

They are no longer needed in the next leg of your journey.

The session will be held within a guiding mantra:

I hold you.

I hear you.

I see you.

I believe you.

I transform with you in love.

++++++++++++++++++++

Safety Note from Virginia:

Virginia is a trained psychotherapist with years of experience supporting the nervous system. Safety and groundedness are held as the highest priority throughout this experience.

While we work with altered states of consciousness, these states remain gentle, responsive, and fully within your control. You will never be led into a place you cannot exit from. Even in deeper delta states, you will retain full agency at all times - you can choose to shift, pause, or step away whenever you need to.

Because the session is conducted through wireless headphones, you will always have the option to lower the intensity or exit the experience without explanation.

Your autonomy and nervous system safety are at the centre of this work.

++++++++++++++++++++

About your facilitator - Virginia Klink @safespace.group

Virginia is a psychotherapist who draws from both Western neuroscience and esoteric mysticism to guide others toward deeper self-truth.She believes we become our most vital, vibrant selves when we reclaim the parts of us we once rejected - often because we were told they were too much, not enough, or unlovable.

She operates her psychotherapy practice out of Warrnambool, where she works with sober psychedelics - stimuli that recreate psychedelic states in the brain without the use of substances. These include strobe-based entrainment, bilateral stimulation, binaural beats, breathwork, and psychedelic visual fields.

Virginia guides clients through altered states of consciousness to help them release beliefs formed in moments of distress or misattunement. By doing so, she supports the brain in rewiring toward openness, receptivity, and alignment - so that people can live their most abundant and sovereign lives.

Her collaboration with Centre of You marks the culmination of a project she has been developing for over a decade - and it is her highest privilege and deepest pleasure to share it with you.

This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Releasing Guilt & Shame.

The Guilt & Shame 9D journey is for individuals who are ready to release the weight of deeply ingrained guilt and shame. If you find yourself struggling with these powerful emotions - whether rooted in past experiences, relationships, or your self-perception - this journey offers a path to healing and liberation. Through immersive breathwork, you'll be guided to delve deep into these feelings, uncover their origins, and begin the process of transformation. This journey is designed to help you cultivate self-acceptance, nurture self-compassion, and ultimately find a sense of inner peace.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Have you felt it?The quiet pull to pause… to breathe… to listen more deeply.A gentle knowing that something within you is ready - ready to soften, to shed what no longer fits, and to call home the parts of yourself that have been waiting.

This is your invitation to step into sacred space.To be held by the heart-opening medicine of Mama Cacao.To journey through ritual, sound, and stillness.To remember the truth of who you are.

Under the visionary light of the Aquarius Full Moon and within the cosmic gateway of the Lion’s Gate Portal (8/8), we gather in circle - called here by something ancient, radiant, and true.

Cradled by the cosmos and grounded deeply in the Earth, we weave together the wisdom of the elements, the Four Directions, and the light of the stars. Rooted in the body yet stirred by spirit, we awaken the Lion Heart within.

If your soul has been whispering that it’s time, this is your space. A place to release, remember, and realign with your light.

What to expect:

Ceremonial cacao: A heart-opening plant medicine to gently guide you inward, softening the edges around the heart and inviting deep presence, clarity, and connection.

Somatic, grounded movement: Gentle, embodied practices to soothe the nervous system and support a soft surrender into the body - preparing you to receive and integrate the energetic shifts of the ceremony.

Immersive sound healing: Healing vibrations and frequencies to regulate, realign, and harmonise your energy field - allowing space for deep emotional and spiritual integration.

Wisdom of the Medicine Wheel & elemental rituals: Sacred practices that attune you to the cycles of nature and connect you with the Earth below, the Sky above, and the Heart within. A reminder of your place in the greater web of life.

Guided meditation & intentional journaling: A soulful journey inward with moments of reflection and journaling to uncover insights, receive guidance, and invite remembrance of your soul’s truth.

Soul Parts Retrieval as Sacred Reclamation: A tender journey to call home the parts of yourself left behind - gifts, truths, and voices waiting to return. Here we welcome back your wholeness with compassion and light.

This is more than a ceremony. It is a sacred homecoming.

If this stirs something within you, trust the call.

Your place in this circle is already waiting.

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.
Aug
9

Human Forest - A Regenerative & Connective Experience of Devotional Touch.

An experiential exploration of discovering the consensual touch we'd truly love to give and receive.

The Human Forest is a consensual, devotional touch experience that invites you to embody your boundaries, stay present, root into your heart, and embrace the essence of oneness through touch. This is a space where time slows, hearts soften, boundaries are honoured, and through the art of deep embodied listening within community, something ancient awakens.

Together, we’ll explore the alchemy of touch as a pathway to presence, where every gesture becomes an offering and every body is honoured. This is a container of sacred play and restorative contact, free from ongoing expectation. A space to explore boundary work, lean into the art of receiving, and be witnessed.

Who this is for:

The Human Forest is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Whether you're an individual seeking deeper connection, a couple exploring the art of non-sexual touch, or a community member curious about the healing power of shared experiences, this space welcomes all who are open to honouring their boundaries and cultivating a sense of oneness.

Whether you're young or young at heart, and whether you identify as male, female, non-binary, or anywhere along the gender spectrum, you’ll find a nurturing environment where your presence is honoured and your heart is safe to open.

Join us for this sacred journey of connection and self-discovery, where every person is celebrated and valued for their unique contribution to the collective experience.

What to expect:

We begin with a grounding circle, connection exercises, and an explanation of the Human Forest framework to create shared language and agreements.

In the Human Forest, we become the ecology, connected through consensual, symbiotic, loving touch. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be gently guided into a world where consent is sacred and boundaries are celebrated.

Half of the room will begin as trees, blindfolded, whose role is to receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room – the critters. Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both roles, twice. Communication within the Forest container will be non-verbal.

These events can be powerful, healing experiences. When the heart opens – through touch, connection, beauty, or presence – the emotional landscape can become vast and deeply personal. Participants may experience love, joy, tenderness, grief, trust, sadness, playfulness, and empowerment.

Our priority is supporting everyone to leave feeling open, cared for, and deeply held in their belonging.

Are you open to trusting yourself?

To being part of a community awakening to the heart-opening, honest, restorative power of non-expectational touch?

Let yourself be held.
Let yourself give.
Let yourself soften into something beautifully human.

What others have said:

“Can we please do this every day!?”

“I just feel like honey melting down a warm stove.”

“I can actually feel my body, myself, and other people. I feel so connected.”

“I’ve never felt so supported in my life.”

“It’s MIND BLOWING to share this much intimacy with so much reverence.”

What to bring:

  • Comfortable, soft clothing for lounging and movement

  • A snack or drink to share afterward in our community time, this is our aftercare

  • An open heart and a curious mind

  • Water

  • A friend or two who might just need this more than they know

++++++++++++++++++

IMPORTANT:

  • In this event, we focus on devotional, loving, and non-sexually oriented touch. Sensual, not sexual. Please note: there is no genital touch at this event, and underwear remains on at all times.

  • There is no kissing or fluid exchange at any time.

  • Participants who know each other - especially those in romantic relationships - are asked to follow the same agreements, rules, and etiquette of the space as everyone else while the event is running (e.g. no kissing your lover in the Forest). This helps avoid confusion about what is and isn’t appropriate and supports the integrity of the container.

  • All of our events have been remarkably healing and heart-opening for many participants, as seen in the testimonials above. That said, this is a touch-focused experience. If you have a history of trauma related to giving or receiving touch, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to thoughtfully consider whether this offering is right for you.

  • Participants are required to arrive on time to ensure they receive the full explanation of how to communicate boundaries with clarity and respect during the consent and boundaries section at the beginning of the event.

Rebecca Day

Embodiment Facilitator | Story Keeper | Guide of Sacred Transformation

Rebecca Lee Day is a weaver of stories - those we've lived, those we've hidden, and those we are ready to reclaim. As a space holder, she creates containers where people can safely explore the unspoken narratives held in their bodies, giving voice to the truths buried beneath silence, survival, and self-doubt.

Her work is rooted in deep listening - listening to the body's subtle language, to the nervous system's rhythms, and to the stories that long to be witnessed without judgement. Through guided embodiment, intuitive practices, and powerful presence, Rebecca supports individuals and groups in returning to wholeness - not by changing who they are, but by remembering who they've always been.

With a grounded, nurturing presence and a fierce commitment to authenticity, Rebecca invites people into spaces of transformation where healing happens not through fixing, but through feeling, witnessing, and reclaiming.

Aug
8

Kindred Singles (20s - 40s) - A Speed Dating Event for Conscious Relating.

Are you willing and open for a conscious relationship?

A conscious relationship is one in which both partners feel committed to a sense of purpose, and that purpose is growth. Individual growth. Shared growth as a couple. Collective growth that makes the world a better place.

AND do you ALSO love laughing, playing, meeting kindred people, or having conversations that delve deeper than “How's the weather?”.

Maybe you've also been wondering where on earth you can actually meet epic humans that aren’t posting their best blue steel on online dating apps?

Well it's here kindred friends! It’s speed dating with real life kindred folk who are open to conscious relationship AND deep and meaningful, AND also playful, human connection!

INTENTION and FLOW

While you might meet the love of your life, we don’t want you too fixated on the outcome!

Soooooo…. Cast the intention to meet who it is you are desiring to meet and then…

**LET IT GO and LET FLOW!**

You can now relax into the opportunity for an evening of soulful, nourishing connection meeting some incredible people who are on a similar journey to you.

Let’s play some games, meet some humans, see where the night takes us!

Know that regardless of the outcome of this event, the structured games, the agreements, the sweetness of the outline of the evening will aim to ensure that this is an enjoyable evening for all.

WHO

This is a heterosexually focused event. We plan to have even numbers of men and women and you will be paired to connect with every person of the opposite gender.

(Please note we are running two separate events differentiated by age brackets)

THIS LISTING is for the age bracket of 20's - 40's!

DETAILS of the EVENING

6:15pm onwards - Arrival with Tea

6:30pm - Opening with Agreements

PAIRINGS: You will play a structured game with each person of the opposite gender.

Games will be in alignment with cultivating conscious relating. They will be simple yet meaningful, and include things like answering prompted questions, sentence stems, structured curiosity games, drawing games, and Authentic Relating exercises.

There will be breaks to prevent date fatigue :)

10pm Informal social connection at the end with tea provided. You may choose to skip this part if you'd rather head home upon event close.

------------------------------------------------------------------

TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve never felt so open and safe and held before. The room and the energy was so divine... there was an equalness between us all. It was phenomenal. I came away from this experience with so much more than I thought.”

“I had such a beautiful time. It was so healing and so hope-evoking just to experience that kind of connection and interact with conscious men. It was reaffirming that my standards for intimate connection are not too high after all and that gentle, present, receptive masculinity is out there (I'd only seen it on Instagram 😂).”

“Omg!! What an epic evening. Thank you so much!!”

“So much fun!! I feel invigorated!”

“Super edgy for me, but the facilitators made it really comfortable to be there. I enjoyed the structured games to get to know people on a deeper level.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: we understand the sensitivity and vulnerability of attending an event like this. We endeavour to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and to create an atmosphere where you feel safe and encouraged to express yourself as who you really are.

While the intention of this event is to create opportunities for romantic connection, all connection starts as two humans meeting each other for the first time and finding common ground. We suggest you see this event as an opportunity to connect to the common ground of all people participating rather than only the ones you feel an “attraction” to. This creates more safety for all those involved and also enables YOU to have a really enjoyable experience with all your pairings!

Please contact us if you are unsure about anything about this event or would like more details. We would be really happy to talk to you.

------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO BOOK!

++ Men - pledge your commitment quickly. There are literally women waiting to meet you! ++

Women’s tickets are being released as each man says YES. Women, we suggest you pop your name on the waitlist now so we can easefully release a spot to you.

A note about the waitlist... the waitlist is super essential to this event as there are almost always changes and we call names off of it, even on the day. Trust that if you're meant to be here, an opportunity for you to join will arise. Cupid is clever like that.

FEAST - A Non-Se*ual, Transpersonal Exploration of Traditional Tantra.
Aug
3

FEAST - A Non-Se*ual, Transpersonal Exploration of Traditional Tantra.

A guided evening of sensory mindfulness, paired ritual, and sacred presence, exploring non-se*ual touch, sound, scent & taste.

About the experience:

FEAST is an immersive afternoon of mindfulness, ritual, and sensory exploration. This is an invitation to slow down, sensitise, and savour the abundance of sensation available in each precious living moment.

You’ll be guided through practices that awaken curiosity, creativity, and connection to Divinity - before pairing with a partner to offer and receive two 1-hour rituals of sensory gifting. The afternoon closes with grounding and nourishing soup.

Unlike conventional workshops, FEAST blends devotional ritual and embodied exploration in a safely held space where sensuality is honoured without being se*ualised.

In a world that often races by in a whirlwind of responsibilities and chaos, there comes a time to slow down and reconnect with the profound beauty of the present moment - where all power, pleasure, playfulness, and perfection abide.

This is your invitation to FEAST.

Part workshop, part ritual, FEAST is a guided journey of self-discovery and sensory awakening, an exploration into the boundless realms of presence, pleasure, curiosity, and the Divine.

What awaits you:

Embodied mindfulness:

-guided practices to bring awareness into the present moment, awakening your senses to the subtle nuances of pleasure

Ritualised sensory explorations:

- immerse in a variety of sensory experiences guided by curiosity– receive the sensual gifts of a caring companion, and offer your own with intention and presence– bring personal items to play with and/or choose from our creative cornucopia of shared tools

Creative expression:

- tap into your unique expression through sensory creativity and devotional play

Divine connection:

- experience sacred communion with your own body, your partner, and the Divine presence within and around you

Feedback from past FEASTs:

"Out of body, but embodied experience. It was actually truly incredible for me"

"Stellar… Certainly brought me closer to my partner during the session and again, I felt so connected with everyone in the room despite only giving/receiving with a partner. It was incredibly opening and connecting for me."

"I felt like I feasted during both giving and receiving. It was a remarkable experience"

"I found a greater connection to self and life, and learned to stop and feast on life - taste it with all of my senses. I felt very grounded and connected."

**With respect for the ritual, registrations will close 24 hours prior to the event - at 12pm on Saturday, 2nd August.

About your facilitator - Miriam Fathalla - @communion_events

Miriam creates embodied, expansive, playful, sacred & spiritually directed ritual experiences. Informed by Kashmir Shaivism, Zen Buddhist Mindfulness, Islamic mysticism, Authentic Relating, somatic practices & astrology, Miriam creates opportunities for genuine Communion - direct experience of the Divine (within ourselves, each other, and beyond) - with the rituals, retreats & events that she produces.

A note from Miriam:

Dress code: sensual, comfortable, and expressive. Wear what helps you feel most authentic and free to move.

You may wish to have some skin exposed to receive touch. The space will be kept warm.

During the ritual experience, participants may choose to remove layers (such as tops or pants) to allow for nurturing, non-se*ual touch on more areas of the body. This is always optional, guided by clear consent, and underwear remains on at all times - genital touch or stimulation is never part of this experience.

Participants will be contacted directly soon after ticket purchase with a link to a form to complete at their earliest convenience, to inform the group container of any sensory needs, potential boundaries, and trigger risks so they can be attuned to and all participants can arrive in a state where we all feel supported to relax, feel, and be fully present.

Your Sacred Bones - Debut EP Release by Tereza Biezaite.
Jul
31

Your Sacred Bones - Debut EP Release by Tereza Biezaite.

A journey of sound, story, and soul - join Tereza Biezaite in a live sharing of her debut EP, Your Sacred Bones.

Step into a sacred container of sound and story, where music becomes a vessel for healing, remembrance, and coming home to yourself. In this event, Tereza Biezaite shares her debut EP, Your Sacred Bones – a collection of songs offering a soundtrack for those walking their own path of remembrance.

The EP unfolds as a journey through stages of self-discovery, beginning with a call to descend – to step willingly into the shadowlands of your psyche, where unspoken truths, ancestral echoes, and buried power live. You are called to witness parts of you exiled long ago, to uncover the intelligence in your defenses, and to embrace grief as the gate to deeper aliveness. It is a call to meet yourself more honestly and intimately than you have ever had the courage to. From this descent emerges a remembering: of the beauty, the strength and loving nature of your true essence. Each song marks a passage in this process. Together, they trace the arc from descent to return – from living in survival, to choosing to live in truth. And reclaiming what was always yours.

This body of work is a testament to the power of creative expression as a tool for transformation. Through this performance, Tereza will share not only the songs but also the stories and reflections that shaped them. She will speak into how songwriting and art-making open a direct line of communication with the subconscious and with your inner guidance – creating a personal roadmap back to wholeness.

This event is an invitation to listen, to meet yourself where you’re at, and explore the alchemy that takes place when we embrace and express our truth – the vulnerable, the powerful, the whole.

Whether you come with a deep love of song or curiosity about the creative process, this evening offers room for all of that.

Come to get inspired, and to connect with the sacredness in your own bones.

++++++++++++++++++

About the artist: Tereza Biezaite

Tereza Biezaite is a Latvian-born, Melbourne-based singer-songwriter and visual artist.

With a long-standing interest in inner work, a background in psychological science and ongoing training in shadow work facilitation, Tereza brings a therapeutic lens to her art. Using rich, dreamlike imagery, her works journey through inner archetypal landscapes to reflect themes of transformation and healing.

Her debut EP, Your Sacred Bones, marks an important milestone on her creative journey: recorded in 2022 and released now, in 2025, the process itself is a testament to how her creative and healing journeys are one and the same. Influenced by folk, new age, and ambient music, her songs have an ethereal quality that remains grounded in earthy soundscapes.

Her artistic practice as a whole is inspired by lived moments of connection to the beauty, strength, and grace of our essential nature – the truth that exists beneath the survival strategies we’ve had to develop to navigate the world. Her works become portals, living prayers, and invocations of that essential self and way of being.

++++++++++++++++++

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with though feel free to bring any personal items that may afford you a sense of greater comfort and familiarity.

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.
Jul
29

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

  • Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

  • Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

  • Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Having seen the immense power in somatic tools, emotional health and authentic expression from personal experience, Shahna now guides people home to their most empowered selves, through the body.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints.

Welcome to the transformative realm of the 9D Breathwork Journey for Releasing & Healing the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints - an immersive exploration dedicated to resolving the imprints of our childhood experiences. Delve deep into the healing process as we address the profound wounds of premature separation from love, rejection, abandonment, shaming, and lack of presence. These imprints, carried from our formative years, silently shape our adult lives, revealing themselves through various challenges, including victim mentality, trust and intimacy issues, co-dependency, relationship struggles, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, and more.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations.

Roots of the Warrior: Awaken the Intelligence of the Body.
Jul
27

Roots of the Warrior: Awaken the Intelligence of the Body.

An ancient martial art for modern transformation - unlock grounded strength, fluid movement, & inner resilience through Kalaripayattu.

“True strength isn’t about domination - it’s about presence. In chaos, we breathe. In challenge, we adapt. In darkness, we find comfort.”

Step onto the path of the warrior. Kalaripayattu invites you to cultivate balance, clarity, and power from the inside out - through ancient movement, breath, and awareness practices that awaken the primal intelligence within.

***No prior experience with martial arts necessary.***

Join Elliott Treves - a qualified Kalaripayattu teacher - for an empowering immersion into the roots of India’s oldest martial art. Kalaripayattu is not only a physical discipline but a spiritual path that awakens balance, resilience, grace, and power within the practitioner. Through breath, movement, awareness, and intention, you’ll reconnect with your primal intelligence and the fierce compassion of your inner warrior.

These sessions offer more than just physical training - they’re an initiation into the art of embodied awareness. You’ll learn foundational techniques in a supportive and focused setting, drawing from classical Southern Indian tradition to energize body, mind, and spirit.

Expect to feel more grounded, confident, and alive.

What to expect:

Kalaripayattu sessions blend dynamic martial movement with internal practices of breath, focus, and flexibility. You will be introduced to:

• Kalari warm-ups that awaken agility, strength, and alignment

• Animal forms that cultivate fluidity, power, and intuition

• Striking sequences and dynamic stances that build strength, stability, and flow

• Breath-coordinated movement that balances the nervous system and awakens energy

• Postural precision that realigns body and mind

• Partner work for building awareness, adaptability, and trust

This is a practice of deep listening - to your body, breath, the Earth, and the ancient intelligence this art carries. Over time, it supports strength, clarity, resilience, and a return to your vital life-force. A path to balance, simplicity, and joyful, purposeful living.

You don’t need any martial arts experience to begin. All levels and abilities are welcome. Each session is crafted to meet you where you are, while challenging you to rise to your potential.

How to prepare:

Wear comfortable, breathable clothes that allow for movement - no shoes or socks required.

Bring a water bottle and an open attitude.

Avoid eating a heavy meal beforehand.

This is a focused practice space - please silence your phone and prepare to be fully present.

As we call in the energies of North, South, East and West, along with the Earth below, Sky above and Heart within. We honour the cycles of nature and the deep knowing within our own bodies.

Mama Cacao invites us to soften, listen deeply and open our hearts. Her medicine offers clarity, healing and remembrance, helping us release what no longer serves and welcome new possibilities with grace.

This is a return - to self, to source, to the infinite beauty within.

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.
Jul
26

What happens when we... Experiments in Authentic Relating.

Ever wondered what happens when we create a space to experiment with how we relate to ourselves and others?

This event invites you to step out of your default modes of interaction, drop the masks, and explore authentic relating. Together, we'll play with communication and discovering new ways of being through experiential games.

What to Expect:

- A playful atmosphere to experiment with authentic connection.

- Activities that bring out hidden parts of yourself.

- Communicate differently, with exercises like using only two words to express yourself.

- Reflect on your experiences to deepen self-awareness and connection with self and others.

Why Join?

If you’re ready to play, connect, and explore what it means to be truly present with yourself and others, this is for you. You’ll discover new insights, build meaningful connections, and surprise yourself with what emerges.

About your facilitator: Matthew - @matthews.labs

Matthew has had an interest in self and relational exploration. Curious about how play can be harnessed to find more integrity he has used the experiences of overcoming his struggles as fuel to be in service to others. In the mid 2010s he became a certified massage therapist and yoga teacher. Over the past few years he has deepened and embodied a more expressive relationship with himself and others through exploring workshops and trainings such as Ecstatic Dance, Authentic Relating, ISTA, Breathwork, Process work and the Human Forest, a consensual touch group experience.

His struggle with social anxiety has been deeply supported by Authentic Relating more than he ever could have imagined. Matthew values creating and holding spaces that are kind, clear, expressive, and exploratory. He brings his own unique flavour of play and exploration to his facilitation. He loves holding spaces where people feel safe enough to show up as the beautifully messy humans that we all are. He believes strongly in meeting everyone at their level and that finding coherence as a group involves everyone’s input.

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.
Jul
22

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

  • Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

  • Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

  • Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Having seen the immense power in somatic tools, emotional health and authentic expression from personal experience, Shahna now guides people home to their most empowered selves, through the body.

9D Breathwork: Reconnecting to Your Inner Child.
Jul
21

9D Breathwork: Reconnecting to Your Inner Child.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Reconnecting to Your Inner Child

This experience is perfectly tailored for anyone that is struggling with deeply connecting with themselves because of the residue from the traumatized child within that we abandoned along the way to be able to deal and cope with life’s struggles which led us to becoming fragmented and showing up in life and in our relationships by dissociation, avoidance, anxious attachment and so much more.

This journey is optimal for anyone that is looking to reconnect the fragmented parts of themselves by rewriting the narrative of their self abandonment so they can rebirth themselves in their adulthood as an integrated whole. This journey is definitely not for the faint of heart as it will gently encourage you to look at the parts of yourself that you may have abandoned and left in the basement of your shadows along the way. By partaking in this journey, participants will come out the other side feeling a sense of deep connection with themselves, a renewed perspective on their self image and life and a deeper love for themselves.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating.

The Poetic Current: A Creative Immersion for Men.
Jul
20

The Poetic Current: A Creative Immersion for Men.

About this event:

The Poetic Current - where language and art move the masculine heart.

This is a poetic refuge for men to deepen into their intimate creative truth and remember the freedom of being fully themselves. To feel more alive, honest, and naturally in flow with their expression.

Through playful, sensuous practices of poetry, movement, and creative embodiment, you’ll awaken parts of yourself once shut down or disconnected - so you can live with more devotion and delight, savouring life through your body as a vessel of expression.

Poetry doesn’t just belong on the page or the stage. It can be a living, breathing part of you.

About the experience:

This is a space where men aren’t confined to polarities - where they can be seen and felt beyond archetypal expectations.

Where you can come back to your heart and feel for yourself, free from the pressure to internalise yet another article telling you what true masculinity is or what the world needs right now from men.

So you can remember your own beautiful rhythm of expression. Feel braver in your being. Trust your voice.

Here, poetry reminds you that your relationship to the world can be artful, alive, and entirely your own. You’ll access creativity, imagination, and expression while feeling grounded in the inner knowing that it’s safe to be all of who you are.

What to expect:

Embodiment & Free-Flow Movement

Ignite your imagination through somatic exploration. Movement becomes a living conversation - a way of listening and discovering through sensation. Feel expressive, alive, and at home in your body.

Sensory Awakening & Sensuous Writing

Engage your body to expand the landscape of your writing. Texture, taste, and sensation become playful prompts.

How does softness shape your tone? How might a sharp smell energise your words and ripple into your life? Inspired by feminine writers who celebrate love, sensuality, and intimacy.

Receive Creative Inspiration

Step into deep receptivity as I share pieces of my art - poetry, sound, movement - to illuminate the creative process and inspire you. See how a single thread can shapeshift across art forms, opening you to new creative possibilities.

Transforming Emotions into Art

Explore how emotion can become artistic expression - not to fix it, but to let it move. Let your creations evolve and surprise you, transforming alongside you. A breakup letter might become a spoken word piece, then a poetic track.

Embodied Water Wisdom

Collaborate with water as a muse through meditation and ritual. Water invites us to dream, soften, and reflect - to feel spacious, receptive, and in harmony with life’s flow.

Who this is for:

You’ve likely felt the pressure of commentary telling men who they should be - and who they are not. From a friend’s post, a poem, or a coach’s advice, these messages carry quiet expectations of who men are and how they move in the world. Here, you are given poetic licence to loosen the grip of these ideals and breathe life into the sacredness of who you are as felt, not prescribed.

This is a quiet revolt against despair and cynicism in our world. An invitation to harmonise heaviness into heartfelt beauty and soulful presence.

Leave feeling more alive, inspired, and open to your true poetic essence.

*A portion of proceeds from this event will be donated to The Man Cave, a non-profit that delivers preventative mental health and emotional wellbeing programs for teenage boys across Australia.

+++++++++++++++

About your facilitator - Emina Ashman @eminaashman

Emina Ashman is a poet, theatre-maker, performance artist, workshop facilitator and Lomilomi giver whose work flows through artistic expression, embodied ritual and devotional presence.

Her training at the Victorian College of the Arts, where she completed both her Acting degree and Honours in Independent Theatre Practice in playwriting, informs her experience as a creative guide. Her research explored synesthesia, tactile poetics and feminine writing - themes that continue to pulse through her artistic work.

Her practice invites others, often touching the hearts of men, into creative intimacy, imaginative freedom and the beauty of emotional expression. She is passionate in supporting their return to creative expression, spiritual journeys, and their desire for love and connection.

Inspired by the energy of water, mermaids and the Lemurian frequencies of love, she holds space for emotion, truth and remembrance, offering poetry not only as artform, but as a relational way of being.

Energy In Motion - An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey Through the Chakras.
Jul
19

Energy In Motion - An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey Through the Chakras.

Energy In Motion: An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey

Welcome to Energy In Motion, a transformational event where ecstatic dance, cacao, and emotional release come together to create an unforgettable experience. This is more than an event; it's a journey of self-discovery and expression, offering a blend of personal growth, community connection, and joyful celebration.

Emotion is energy in motion, and this experience is designed to support emotional processing with an undercurrent of bliss. It's about inner exploration and embodied expression, all within a vibrant, party-like atmosphere. Personal development can be fun, and we're here to prove it.

July Event: Throat Chakra (Ether)

This month at Energy in Motion, we'll be activating our throat chakra to reclaim our voices, speak our truth and express ourselves.

Linked to communication and self expression, the throat chakra is associated with truth and clarity. The throat chakra is also known as the vishudda, which in Sanskrit means 'pure' or 'purification'.

This chakra, our fifth chakra, is also linked to our sacral chakra, the second chakra, which is the centre of creativity, emotion and eros.

The element that the throat chakra is connected with is ether, also known as space, which we’ll be journeying with throughout the event.

Join us this month for an evening of vocal reclamation and creative expression!

This event is an opportunity to dance AND an invitation to transform through beauty, play, and the pleasure of being fully present in your body.

Experience Highlights

  • Ecstatic Dance: A space for free expression. Let go of inhibition and move to the rhythm. No dance experience needed, just an open heart.

  • Cacao Ceremony: Connect with this heart-opening plant medicine, traditionally known as "food of the Gods." The ceremony invites emotional clarity and deeper connection to self while fueling your desire to dance.

  • Chakra Exploration: Each event focuses on one of the seven chakras. From the root to the crown, we journey through these energetic centers, integrating their wisdom and embracing their power.

Community Guidelines

  • Be present: No phones

  • Be clear: No intoxicants

  • Be embodied: No talking during the dance

  • Be respectful: Consensual contact only

Join us at Energy In Motion for a transformative experience where you can dance, connect, and evolve with a community of kindred spirits.

Together, let’s celebrate the full spectrum of the human experience and transform through the power of movement, music, and shared energy.

Upcoming Dates:

  • Saturday July 19th: Throat Chakra

  • Saturday August 16th: Heart Chakra

  • Saturday September 13th: Solar Plexus Chakra

  • Saturday October 11th: Sacral Chakra

  • Saturday November 8th: Root Chakra

About your hosts: Shahna Sarpi - @shahnasarpi

It was love at first dance, when Shahna stepped onto an ecstatic dance dance-floor. She saw the immense power in embodied movement and authentic expression, coming home to hear body and her self and feeling the liberation that comes from allowing the energy to move through her. Since that time, she has interwoven these lessons and practices into what she does personally, but also professionally.

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Having seen the immense power in somatic tools, emotional health and authentic expression from personal experience, Shahna now guides people home to their most empowered selves, through the body.

Co-Host: Patty McDonald - @ pattymac.truth

Patty is passionate about helping people open their hearts and find bliss in the full spectrum of the human experience. Chakaruna means "Bridge Person" in the Quechua language - this journey is here to provide a bridge for you into new ways of connecting with your self, with each other and with the world around you.

An experienced leader and coach, he recently doubled down on music as an even purer vehicle to deliver transformation, and spent a few weeks in Guatemala dancing with and learning from some of the world's best organic music producers such as Mose, Scott Nice, ATYYA and Melbourne's own Temple Step Project. He also was humbled to learn about Cacao plant magic whilst in Guatemala and is honoured to be holding a space for Cacao and Ecstatic Dance to be shared with our community.

Guest DJ: Jase Aether a.k.a DJ Elkemist - @jase_elkemist

Elkemist is a versatile multi-instrumentalist, hybrid live DJ and facilitator who plays multi-genre sets rooted in mystical sounds and ethnic flavours. With a deep love of tribal bass blended with rising slowtempo energy, his sets are curated to take audiences on a sacred journey of sonic alchemy, supported by live looping with didjeridoo, vocals, flute and percussion.

Elkemist also facilitates a weekly ecstatic dance in Nelson, BC (Canada) called Dance Wave, as well as co-hosting regular community ceremonial gatherings, and runs a bi-weekly men’s circle. Beyond building community and co-creating safe spaces for authentic expression, Elkemist has also contributed sets and ecstatic dance workshops to festivals around Canada and Australia including Shambhala (CAN), Wicked Woods (CAN), Dragon Dreaming (AUS), Chrysalis (CAN), Elevate (CAN), Tribe Ascension (AUS), The Magic Garden (AUS) and Kootenay Yoga Festival (CAN).

Whether it’s a rising tribal bass journey, sacred gathering, ecstatic dance or sunrise festival set, expect a voyage across space and time, inspired by sounds from around the world to encourage dancers to move beyond the perceived limits of their bodies and minds.

Guest Facilitator: Grace Elizabeth @beinggraceelizabeth

Helping us reclaim our voices and get acquainted with the gifts of our throat chakra, is none other than the talented founder of Centre of You, Grace Elizabeth.

Sharing song was instrumental to Grace's identity in her high school days as captain of her school choir, Stacella, an acappela choir centred around tribal, world and devotional music. During Shamanic Breathwork training in 2019, Grace found immediate resonance with the practice of shamanic/medicine drumming and chanting. Drum chants led into mantra chanting where she fell in deep alignment with kirtan (devotional call and response singing). Grace is continuing her journey towards reclaiming and regaining trust, acceptance and love for her voice through the devotional routes of kirtan and drum chanting after repressing it for two decades. Upon Grace's personal vocal reclamation journey, she has come to the realisation that the desire to befriend one's voice, spoken or sung, is a collectively shared one by many.

We’re thrilled to have Grace joining us to initiate us into new levels of vocal activation.

Nervous System Rewire - An Exploration of Grounding Regulation Practices.
Jul

Nervous System Rewire - An Exploration of Grounding Regulation Practices.

Is life keeping you stuck in overdrive? No matter how much self-care you do, do you still end up feeling on edge or exhausted, almost like you're just wired that way?

The truth is, this is a natural response to the demands of modern life and the state of the world right now. Many of our nervous systems are working overtime in response to constant stimuli, screens, and stressors…

The good news is that it is possible to rewire this programming and gently build your capacity to feel grounded and resilient amidst the chaos.

Based on the teachings of Polyvagal Theory, this Nervous System Rewire class will teach you simple and empowering self-regulation tools to retrain your brain and rebuild a robust nervous system, so you no longer feel stuck and can confidently handle stress.

When you rewire your nervous system, you reclaim your vitality, regulate your emotions, and rebuild your ability to be present and connected with loved ones, and with yourself.

This class is open to anyone; no prior experience is necessary. The practices are useful both as a preventative measure and to ease the impact of acute or chronic stress.

What to Expect

Expect a kind and inviting space where you can show up just as you are as we gently explore a series of:

✨ Vagal toning exercises that work directly with your vagus nerve to stimulate rest, digestion, and repair.

✨ Trauma-sensitive yoga and gentle movement to enliven the felt sense and improve interoception.

✨ Gentle breathwork to quiet the mind and create space for your true self to emerge.

✨ Stress-release practices to discharge incomplete stress energy and complete the stress cycle.

✨ Journaling and reflection exercises to help integrate the teachings and shifts.

✨ Co-regulation and the inherent benefits of being in shared space with community.

About you facilitator - Sally @sallypriestley

Sally is a yoga teacher and embodiment mentor passionate about bringing spirituality and science together in sacred spaces with a focus on nervous system support and mind-body-spirit connection. 

Previously, Sally worked as a commercial lawyer, struggling with anxiety, chronic pain and a deep longing for a sense of wholeness and connection that felt elusive. 

Through her own journey Sally came to realise the importance of working with the nervous system to access the body's innate healing intelligence and rewire subconscious behaviours that keep us stuck in survival patterns which inhibit optimal health, mental clarity and whole self connection.

Today, Sally draws on over 18 years of devoted practice and specialist study in nervous system health and trauma sensitive yoga to guide others back to their bodies and gently unravel the stresses of modern life.

Sally teaches in a nurturing and invitational style with modifications to meet you exactly where you’re at in every practice.

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.
Jul
15

Shake It Off - Your Weekly Dose of Physical & Emotional Fitness.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

  • Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

  • Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

  • Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Jul

9D Breathwork: Full Reset.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Full Reset

Buckle your seatbelts and get ready for the Full System Reset, a somatic breathwork experience purpose-built to aid you in the mastery of release. This all-encompassing experience frees you from the clutches of the past, discarding both physical and psychological loads that foster unease. Interweaving the central themes of acceptance, gratitude, self-belief, and courage, it fosters a powerful personal rebirth. You'll cast off the heaviness of old programming, creating space for emotional resilience, inner peace, and renewed equilibrium. This revitalizing journey acts as a cornerstone for sustained growth and recovery, fortifying the emergence of your genuine self. Welcome deep-seated freedom, augmenting your existence with renewed intent and boundless potential.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Women's Full Moon Ceremony & Sound Bath - Tune Into Your Inner Wisdom.
Jul
11

Women's Full Moon Ceremony & Sound Bath - Tune Into Your Inner Wisdom.

A sacred evening for women ready to slow down, reflect, and reconnect under the power of July’s Full Moon.

An intimate gathering created to offer a nurturing space to soften, breathe, and come home to yourself.

Through powerful sound healing, journaling, and ritual, you’ll honour the emotional energy of this Full Moon, gently releasing what no longer serves and making space for what truly matters.

What the Full Moon in Capricorn Means for You

This Full Moon asks you to find balance between home and career, feeling and responsibility, roots and ambition.

With the Sun in Cancer and Moon in Capricorn, you're being pulled between your emotional needs (Cancer) and your practical goals (Capricorn). You might feel tension between where you’re coming from and where you're heading, or between the desire to rest and the drive to achieve.

This Moon illuminates what’s been quietly building - whether it’s a truth you’ve been avoiding, a goal you’ve been chasing, or emotions you've been bottling up. It’s time for a release. Let the clarity rise, but know: it might come with a few emotional waves.

How to Work With This Energy
A moment of emotional release and realignment.

This lunation invites you to honour both your inner world and your outer responsibilities. If you’ve been silently carrying pressure, duty, or striving to “hold it all together,” this is your cue to soften and let some of it go.

1. Let what’s rising be seen.
With the Cancer Sun opposing the Capricorn Moon, there’s a call to balance tenderness with tenacity. Cancer whispers of home, roots, and safety. Capricorn points toward goals, structure, and legacy. You are being asked to tend to both the heart and the hustle, without abandoning one for the other.

2. It’s time to ground your feelings, not silence them.
Feel the truth of what’s unfolding. Release what no longer serves your path forward. And remember: you’re allowed to be both soft and strong, held and driven, resting and rising.

What the Evening Includes:

  • Heart-opening cacao ceremony

  • Powerful sound bath (gongs, crystal bowls, drums, voice + more)

  • Guided journaling & meditation

  • Releasing ritual

  • Aboriginal Oracle & Moon Manifestation cards

  • Optional sharing circle

  • Space to connect with kind-hearted and curious women

  • Nourishing nibbles + tea
