Stress Less this Spring’ with Mindful Living

Stress and its management is the focus of the first of our 6 week seasonal programs.

‘Stress Less this Spring’ is a caringly tailored, introductory program focussing on the mindfulness skills that will assist you to still a chattering mind, settle into sleep, relax the tension in your body and reconnect with yourself and your natural environment.

The two hours you set aside each week to attend this program will be a life long investment in your health and wellbeing. Set within Jindii EcoSpa, in the lush surrounds of the Australian National Botanic Gardens, you’ll feel relaxed and focused.
