Gaelle Pettifer sharing the essence of peaceful practices I love to share peaceful practices with those seeking a path towards inner calm.

Sacred soundscapes, restorative yoga, personalised photography, interior design and styling along with small batch clothing are some of things I spend my time with. Creative and calming, my instagram page is the.peace.lounge/instagram.com

Being outside and spending time with the nature ancestor spirits does a whole lot a good for my personal system of operation!

This is a quiet little area in the Strathbogie ranges. Nearly 25 years ago I used to drive once a week out to this place from Mansfield to teach a yoga class. The road was windy and rough, nothing has changed on that front. I’d see giant koalas and imagine the bushrangers who used to roam the hills and hide amongst the boulders. Even though it’s close to civilisation, it is such a raw part of the bush.

Polly McQuinns is on the side towards Euroa and is named after a settler who drowned at the site. Legend has it that the ghost appears every seven years on a moonlit night, but whether she does or not, her memory is carried by her name.

Anyway, if you’re like me, time spent in places like this renews my resolve to take another step forward!

Ahhh the light that shines its glory on what translates to peace, these representations of Sunday’s session at are extraordinary.

The live deliveries of divine and mesmerising mantras and melodies leave me completely spellbound. I’m a participant to hearing the translations as much as I am the interpreter of the sounds as they move through me.

Thank you to all who attended and I hope you are able to proceed towards the end of the year with the grace of peace within, Gx

The last couple of tickets are available if you can attend this Sunday’s 2hr special class at 4-6pm $65

We will all be raising the love present in our hearts with the sound of mantra, listening to the ways breath expands in different directions within the body ignited with mudra and be blessed with deep rest as mantras sound like lullabies, soothing our nature of peace!

Here’s a snapshot of what I captured at GROUNDEDLive at Dookie Quarry.

Such a celebration of carefree living. Folk attended for the gathering opportunity to listen and see and dance and enjoy live music. What they also did was get fresh air, laugh, mingle and soak up some good ol’ Australian vibes.

If you’re looking for someone to capture your business, event or your sweet self, I might be your gal, slide on in and let’s create magic!

I poked my head out of the pocket of the nth east I’m usually bound to and headed to the Goulburn Valley.

Dookie, usually known for the agricultural college where farming folk are at the fore, this time the quarry took centre stage. Wow, what a place! Whilst it’s a privately owned area, the festival I went to photograph yesterday was held there and it is just absolutely stunning.

Its environment is raw and rugged, desolate and contained and completely inviting and nurturing in its elements. I look forward to sharing some of the experience.

We’ll be harmonising our hearts with sound, following the path of the breath’s movement with mudras and meditation and relishing a long Savasana during which a live soundscape of mantra will fill the air, the element of flow. Finishing up with snacks and chai!

Comfortable clothes is all you need for this session as you’ll be seated or lying down. I’m pleased to say there are only a handful of places left and I’d be disappointed you missed out if you have plans to come. The link to book is in the bio or contact Gina directly at

Have you booked your place to attend this session in just a few weeks?

Together we will visit the sounds of our heart through simple chanting. This has a remarkable impact on how we feel within ourselves, offering a unique respite from noise as we follow the breath to create harmonious resounding joy.

After attuning ourselves through sound and breath, we will use mudras to focus in on the directions the breath/air element, takes as it journeys with purpose throughout our internal system.

This meditation prepares us for the next stage of our time together. During Savasana an opportunity avails itself to calm the senses to towards peace whilst being lulled to safe surrender. Gentle mantras will permeate towards the core of who we are, love.

Out time together concludes with warm chai and snacks, ensuring a full body experience of joyful union.

Emerging from winter like it never happened!

It’s been a over a year since there’s been any water in the pond at the local gardens so I’ve found a new place to sit and it gives me all the earthing I need to be inspired. It’s a blessing because making it through the cold months tends to be a manic struggle and the park over the past few years has provided me with a calmness my nervous system seems to respond well to.

I’m contained in a small space where I live, so the park means I get a place to practice asana, mudra, mantra and dhyana. Whilst it is in the surrounds of local activity, somehow it’s also a quiet place I feel safe in.

These practices serve me well for maintaining a cyclic balance, that is, not a lineal representation of health and wellbeing, but rather a slightly revolving one where seasons and predicaments are approached using yogic and ayurvedic knowledge.

The other requirement I need for personal survival is an outlet for creativity. My personal practices are for my own wellbeing, but creativity is the outward expression of who I am. Not who I’ve been or will become, but rather the spirit of the soul itself and what it wishes to experience.

Om Suryaya Namaha! Salutations to the Sun for the input it has for giving sustenance, at least during this time of the year in late spring!

We’ll be harmonising our hearts together in collective chanting, following the five internal pathways of the air element the Vayu Bhuta and then you will be gently encouraged to soften into rest through the sacred sounds of mantra lullabies.

As usual we will conclude our time together with warm chai, snacks and chats.
