Nurturing Wellness: Recent Workshops at Women’s Healing Sanctuary

We are grateful for the opportunity to host transformative wellness activities that support personal growth and healing for women at Women’s Healing Sanctuary. Recently, we welcomed two impactful workshops: Beyond Boundaries and Finding Balance Yoga. These events provided participants with valuable tools and experiences for self-discovery and well-being.

Beyond Boundaries: Empowering Growth

Beyond Boundaries was led by Aarti Chidambaram from Discovery to Recovery, focused on essential aspects of personal development:

• Setting Healthy Boundaries: Participants learned strategies for establishing and maintaining boundaries in their relationships, which is vital for emotional health.
• Healing from Betrayal: The workshop created a supportive environment for women to process past betrayals and work toward rebuilding trust.
• Self-Discovery: Through guided exercises, attendees explored their strengths and identified areas for growth.

Finding Balance Yoga: Mind-Body Connection

The Finding Balance Yoga workshop presented by A-J Peterson from Physiotherapy Yoga, offered participants a chance to reconnect with themselves through yoga practices aimed at promoting overall wellness:

• Stress Reduction: Participants engaged in yoga techniques designed to lower stress and anxiety levels.
• Physical Health: The workshop included practices that improved flexibility and strength.
• Mindfulness Practices: Attendees learned mindfulness techniques to enhance present-moment awareness.

The Sanctuary Experience

Hosting these workshops at Women’s Healing Sanctuary provides a unique setting that enhances the overall experience:

• Tranquil Environment: Our six-acre property in Port Stephens offers a peaceful backdrop for reflection and healing.
• Intimate Groups: With a limited number of participants, these workshops allow for personalised attention and community building.
• Holistic Support: All-inclusive packages enable participants to focus on their wellness journey without distractions.

Lasting Benefits

The impact of these workshops extends beyond the sanctuary:

• Improved Relationships: Participants gain tools for developing healthier relationships.
• Increased Self-Awareness: Attendees leave with a deeper understanding of themselves, fostering more authentic living.
• Effective Stress Management: Practical techniques learned during the workshops help manage stress in daily life.
• Community Connections: Many participants form lasting friendships and support networks during these events.

At Women’s Healing Sanctuary, we are dedicated to providing spaces where women can heal and grow. Our recent Beyond Boundaries and Finding Balance Yoga workshops are examples of the enriching experiences we offer. We invite you to join us for future workshops that honour each woman’s journey toward wellness. Or host your own wellness weekend at Women’s Healing Sanctuary!
