Picture This:

New Year's has just elapsed. It's quiet... the calm before chaos a.k.a. reality.

You want to preserve the precious peace that you have so carefully cultivated within...

Maybe it's been dark and you decide it's time to make space for something new...

Or, say you are working with a blank canvas and are ready to brush the rich tapestry of your inner world.

Your calendar happens to be free on Saturday Jan 4th at 10am.

Williamstown is a pretty reasonable distance for you to travel, ever enticing with the nourishment you know you will receive.

You become enamoured with the notion of being in a place called "The Healing Garden".

Enough sweet talk. What's this all about?

Knowing Thy Self.

New year's is filled with hopes, dreams, promises...

It's amazing how much significance we place on a new year, when really, it's simply another day.

As with every new day, it is accompanied by an opportunity - for renewal of our vows to Self.

Ikigai (生き甲斐) is a Japanese concept that translates to "reason for being".

It represents the intersection of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be rewarded for.

Rooted in the balance of personal fulfilment and contribution to something greater, Ikigai is a deeply meaningful framework for living a life of joy, purpose, and alignment with your truth.

It is seen as the key to long-term happiness and vitality.

The number 44 symbolises stability, balance and groundedness, with its essence rooted in sacred geometry—representing the square and its four dimensions as a foundation of protection, structure, and connection to the natural and spiritual worlds. It reminds us to honour ritual while embracing the sacred rhythm of life.
