Unwind to Wisdom is a meditative journey encouraging people 55+ to connect to their voices and breath within a welcoming atmosphere. The time we spend together will encourage a communal sharing of space and welcomes all experiences, ages, and levels of ability.

You Can Expect to:

- Learn simple breathing exercises for relaxation
- Discover accessible meditation techniques that enable the potential to enjoy each moment, despite age or physical ability
- Enjoy a gentle space of inquiry and curiosity, where you will have the opportunity to reflect on the gifts of elderhood
- Partake in a Q&A where we will discuss how holistic well-being practices encourage healthy ageing
