Meditation & Mindfulness

While Hatha Yoga is a meditative and mindful practice, we have two specialty meditation teachers on staff and offer specific courses in meditation and mindfulness. Tina Shettigara and Anne Rodgers are members of Meditation Australia and thus are acknowledged by the peak body of meditation professionals. Mindfulness and meditation are shown in evidence based research to be effective in the relief of anxiety, stress, and depression. See also iRest for deep wellbeing.
