Then drop into longer-held restful yin/restorative poses supporting you to feel your highest intentions awaken in real-time.\n 	Allow your intentions to become a lighthouse for all your 2026 aspirations\, set through a final guided mediation.\n\nFeaturing live music by Tenzin Choegyal\n\nHe’s one of the world’s finest musicians in the Tibetan tradition. As a son of Tibetan nomads\, he feels a particular connection to the music of the high Himalayan plateau.\n\nIn a career spanning 20+ years Tenzin has performed at festivals across Australia and curated numerous events and concerts including Brisbane’s annual Festival of Tibet. Internationally he has performed in New Zealand\, Japan\, India\, Germany\, Bangladesh\, Russia and USA\, including performances at New York’s Carnegie Hall. He has also opened many of His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s Public Talks in Australia\, New Zealand and Japan with his musical offerings.\n\nHosted and Yoga Guidance by Erin Lee\n\nThis is Erin’s sixth year of hosting this beautiful event.
