May reduce snoring by toning the muscles of the throatThrough practice, we draw senses inward to quiet the mind. In this stillness, we can experience more subtle aspects of being that resides beyond the mind; a oneness and wholeness with all of life and a sense of profound peace. Mantra is a reminder to treat our words as sacred, creative and divine. What we think and say, we create. Inspired by Deepak Chopra’s ‘Seven Spiritual Laws of Success’, these 10-15 minute seated practices offer reflection, self enquiry, connection and stillness through mantra repetition (japa) and meditation. There are 7 recordings in this series which run through my ‘Radiant Wellbeing’ APP so you can practice anywhere, anytime.

Practicing 'Chair' yoga
2025-05-27 17:00 - 2025-07-29 18:00 | 100% online, Davidson, NSW, 2085, Australia
Practicing Chair yoga is a great gift for a number of reasons.

It might be that you need support for the poses; you might have a knee or hip that’s not coping well with weight bearing; or you might not have the time or space to roll out your mat.

Using a chair, poses can be gentle or strong, and I’ll teach both.

I will be giving detailed alignment instructions for the actions, and introducing new actions each week.

There will be video recordings of the live sessions so if you can’t make a live session all is not lost.

My intention, my hope is that over the ten sessions you will learn enough to be able to create your own practice.

There’s such ease in pulling out a chair and doing some stretches. Such support for building strength. Such a great opportunity to be drawn in to the quiet inside, as the outer body moves.

Deep Healing Retreat: Embodied practices for therapists and those who hold space
2025-06-06 16:30 - 2025-06-09 13:00 | South Australia
Located in Hepburn Springs, Victoria, we have the entire Continental House to roam, find our own little nook and settle in, sit in the garden or go for walks through nature.
Enjoy the sumptuousness of having your own space, meals served to you and yoga designed for your needs. Then dive into experiential understanding of Yoga Psychology ~ how the sensing, feeling body informs the mind about safety and social engagement, armouring and withdrawal. Expect a deep dive into the mind’s nature and come out the other end brimful with new ways of thinking and being in the world.
Katie de Araujo has a way of unravelling the stress, awakening the sensing body, opening hearts while expanding one’s knowledge and perspective.
Katie de Araujo is a body-centered yoga therapist with expertise in embodiment: felt-sense movements that honour the natural movement of the body and the intuitive breath.
She teaches high level concepts of psychology and philosophy in practical, common sense language to equip learners with a sense of mastery and achievement.
In this long weekend retreat (Friday evening to Monday afternoon):
~ you’ll release the subtle armouring and vigilance we often think of as normal or okay. Why? To feel open, new and clearer so that new learning can occur.
~ Feel the effects of your particular nervous system and practice regulation and co-regulation with others
~ expand and then refine your practical knowledge of the mind-body connection from neuroscience, breath science and somatic experiencing.
~ learn essential practices and practice them to a level more masterful than otherwise would be possible (repeat, iterate, build)
~ have a clear framework for sharing your skills with students, clients or significant others in your life
~ be apart of a unified, supportive group (my favourite and most valued element of any retreat 💗) and preserve a special experience to remember forever.

VEDIC CHANTING CLASSES
2025-06-07 08:30 - 09:30 | DenDuprat Yoga Studio, 1/96 mimosa road, melbourne, VIC, 3163, Australia
Improve your memory and focus. – Reduce mental agitation – Increase your breath capacity. – Improve listening and communication skills – Find and refine your own voice – Increase your self confidence. – Strengthen you spiritual connection – Gain an overall sense of well-being!!
Vedic Chanting is yoga, it is concentration, meditation, it is prāṇāyāma, it is jñāna and it is bhakti. It is a commitment to learning something very deep.
I am asked what the Vedas have to do with Yoga. Well, the Vedas contain it, the Vedas are themselves Yoga. That is what this is all about.
That said, you don’t need anything to practice and learn. If you want to know something in you that will surprise you a lot, this will surely interest you. It is not easy, but it is enriching. It is not quick, but it is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard.
Chanting controls and transforms the Prāṇā, it is a feeling of merging with the Universal vibration, and it is rediscovering oneself anew in a practice very little known in the West.
In these classes you will learn how to pronounce Sanskrit, you will learn the correct way to recite some Vedic mantras, such as the popular Gāyatrī, as it was taught in ancient times, unchanged, orally and following the rules of a South Indian lineage.
You don’t need to know how to sing, or how to tune, in Vedic Chanting we only use 3 notes not 7 as in music , this makes it accessible to everyone!
Chanting classes are conducted seated, either on the floor or on a chair. It is important to feel comfortable so that you are able to focus only on the sound. All chants will be taught through a “call and response” methodology, using the aid of chant texts. The basic rules of Chanting, along with general meanings of chants will be explained.
These classes are for you if you want to learn more about mantra practice. If you are a yoga teacher or student and you want to introduce Chanting in your classes or you want to work with mantras in your personal practice
