Fabulous time in Melbourne practising vedic chanting with Debby Badger and this lovely group. For four whole days we studied the purusasuktam, and hopefully our chanting improved as the days went by. Debby is the most patient teacher!!!

Good morning from Melbourne ☀️☀️☀️

18/04/2026

🍀 Good morning, everyone! The morning sun is up and a soft breeze is drifting by—it feels like nature is gently checking in on us, whispering a reminder to start the day with a quiet heart. We truly believe that when we find that deep stillness inside ourselves, it ripples out naturally, helping bring more peace to the whole world.

Let’s make a simple commitment today to stay present and mindful in everything we do. By living in the present with each breath and choosing kindness in our small, everyday actions, we can bring some genuine happiness to our own hearts and to everyone we cross paths with. Let's walk this path together, one peaceful step at a time.

Today is going to be our peaceful day.
May you and all beings be well, happy, and at peace. 🙏✨

Nature such a powerful antidote to the hustle and bustle. So much prana on this little trail between the trees, river and waterfall - I'm feeling high! 🌿🌿🌿

Loved teaching with Girishaa at our second Nurture & Nourish workshop with such a warm, fun and enthusiastic group. Here we are taking a stroll after lunch - to aid our digestion! - in Cathy and Dave's gorgeous garden that is growing up a little more every time I visit.
Thankyou to everyone who came and to Cathy for hosting us. Food for the soul to be with you all.
Sangita 🙏🙏🙏

Happy Easter to all ❤

I love this thought from Shree Mataji who suggests that...

"Easter is an awakening of awareness - a rising from unconscious living into a life illuminated by understanding."

May you find some space this easter to let the light in.

Sangita 😀🙏

Welcome to Mountain Mindfulness

Yoga & mindfulness are tools that help to get us out of our heads, and back into our hearts and bodies. They allow us to drop the constant ‘doing’ and take some time to simply ‘be’. Mindfulness research shows that we have around 60,000 thoughts a day, and that 90% of them we also had yesterday and the day before! Understanding the nature of the mind, and learning techniques to manage it, helps us live a more happy and balanced life.

Music: Coming together to sing, chant, or move with the peace dances, creates a positive vibration on every level - physical, mental and emotional. Melodic repetition and musical patterns are calming for the mind. Being in a group creates community and connection. Learning something new creates new neural pathways in the brain and is so good for your mental health.

About Melissa Howden (Sangita): Melissa’s background is in education as a music teacher working in schools in both Tasmania & London. Following a major sea change triggered by a health crisis in 2013, she found herself living in a yoga ashram in NSW and studying at the Gawler Cancer Foundation in Victoria. During this time Melissa came to understand the enormous part the mind plays in healing and in determining the quality of one’s whole life. This is why she now loves to share the path of yoga and mindfulness, as well as music, as ways to enhance both physical and mental wellbeing and to create a more personally meaningful life.
