and Ceremony

-
For mental health practitioners and clients: Engages Aboriginal spiritual, symbolic, and ceremonial pathways for healing, grounding, and resilience.
-

-
For conference attendees: A chance to slow down, breathe, and reflect through Aboriginal and spiritual practices - often described as a “reset” or “return to self” amid the intensity of professional events.
Grounded in Indigenous wisdom, the workshop invites participants to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with Country, spirit, and self.

Remembering Who We Are
“Being on country has been deeply healing for myself and my clients. Connecting with the land, our culture, and community has helped both myself and clients find balance and strength in deep listening. Walking the land and connecting with my ancestors reminds me that I belong and that healing comes from reconnecting with who we are and where we come from."'
-Sharona Lee Joinbee, Mental Health Support Worker, Wuchopperen, 2025

Heartfelt Experience
"It was a privilege to welcome Karen into our space. The learnings shared through connection to Country, deep listening, journaling, and storytelling were a deeply impactful encounter. Her honest, authentic and gentle approach created an inviting atmosphere where we then felt safe to share our own stories of connection.
We are profoundly grateful for the opportunity to learn from such a knowledgeable and empathetic guide, and thank Karen, for a truly meaningful and heartfelt experience!"
- Robyn, Assistant Principal Religious Education, St Joseph's Primary School, 2024
