We began our Resilience Rise Retreat with a gathering at Church Point, followed by a short ferry ride to the stunning YHA Pittwater. Surrounded by a breathtaking oasis of trees, rocks, water, and wildlife, we took in the beauty of this peaceful sanctuary together. We took a quiet moment to visit a hidden beach and inlet nestled among mangroves — a perfect space to begin sharing our stories within this incredible ecosystem. Back at the retreat, we continued our circle over dinner, where the vulnerability and courage shared by everyone was truly inspiring.
Thank you all for bringing your beautiful, authentic selves and trusting this journey with us. More moments and reflections from our retreat to come — stay tuned.

Come and join us for a nourishing afternoon of breath, connection, and gentle challenge in community. This guided Breathwork & Ice Bath Experience is designed to support you in creating your own inner resource – a practice that steadies the nervous system, builds resilience, and reconnects you back to yourself.

Location: Kula Body Turramurra.
Date: Sunday 26th @12.30pm

Through conscious connected breathing, we open the body to deeper oxygenation and energy flow, helping release tension, quieten the mind, and bring the nervous system into balance. Breath becomes the bridge between body and mind, a tool to shift how we respond to stress and to anchor us in presence.

We then take this inner resource into the cold water immersion. The ice bath helps regulate the nervous system by activating a healthy stress response and then teaching the body how to return to calm more quickly. On a physical level, cold immersion supports circulation, recovery, and immune strength. On an emotional level it becomes a powerful practice in resilience – showing you how to meet intensity with calm, turning discomfort into clarity and empowerment.

By combining the breath with the cold, this experience offers:

Greater resilience to stress and emotional regulation
Improved sleep, circulation, and inflammation reduction
A calm, clear mind with increased focus and vitality
Release of stored tension and emotional blocks
More confidence in meeting life’s challenges with balance and presence
An embodied practice you can return to any time for inner strength and calm

This session is not about pushing harder but about tuning in more deeply. You’ll be supported step by step, with education and practices you can integrate into everyday life—so this isn’t just an event, but a lasting resource for your wellbeing.

Look forward to seeing you there

This Sunday marked our first session back with the ice bath — and didn’t everyone love the dip!
Another amazing morning down on the sand, flowing with the breath and the elements.

We began with a neutral breath, then gradually increased the rhythm to simulate a sympathetic response — activating energy and alertness — before slowing the breath back down into a parasympathetic state of rest and recovery. The intention was to help everyone recognise how our breathing changes across these different states, and how, through breath awareness, we can consciously guide ourselves between them rather than becoming stuck in any one state

Over the past 10 weeks, it’s been such a joy to hold space for our Sunday sessions while Mal’s been taking a well earned rest.

I’m deeply grateful to everyone who’s joined us during this time — for your presence, your breath, and the sense of community we continue to build together.

From Bondi to Killara and beyond, it’s amazing to see how far our little family reaches. What a beautiful season it’s been sharing breath, sip ☕️ & dip 🏊 through the cooler months — and now, with the warmth returning, so too is the ice!🧊

Big thanks to Mike and for the awesome didge tones and to everyone who joined in.
🙏🏼🌸❤️

Your body — and your nervous system — will thank you.

🌿 Breathing with the Ancients: A Walk of Return
Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park

A sacred walk, a still breath, and a sound offering to close.
Deep in Ku-ring-gai Chase, we reconnected with the elements—land, sky, self, and song.
The final drum and didge was a thank you, offering into the trees. 🍃🪘🎶

Today, Mike and I stepped into the ancient embrace of Ku-ring-gai Chase, beneath fishbone clouds and a prism of rainbow light. The aways BLUE sky—our Father Sun—stretched above, while Mother Earth below- held us in emerald bush and still waters.

Among the tall people—the trees—we remembered our place in the family of nature.

Breath slowed and deepened.
Inhale: spacious sky.
Exhale: grounding earth.
Each breath reminded us: we are nature. Our breath is the song of the earth moving through us.

We come to sacred lands to connect, share, seek wisdom, and ground—not just as individuals, but as fathers, sons, brothers. The trees, our elders, offer ancient guidance.

We asked many questions, and this
How do we transmute anger?
The forest replied:

“We do not feel anger. There is only love. Be love.”

A gentle breeze passed through, and we understood.
The breath is the bridge—creating a pause, spaciousness to transform into love ❤️.

To be in Nature to restores us. The colours, scent, light, sound—cleansing our system, returning us to stillness and connection. To be here is to remember, to retrieve.

Before leaving, we offered sound to the land—didge and drum. A reverent thank you for the teachings received. A farewell in rhythm, to return home—grounded, open, connected to our high purpose..

To breathe is to be.
To be is to love.
To love is to honour ourselves, others, the land, the sky, and all the wisdom in between.
