Wayapa at The Briars

Next date: Saturday, 11 July 2026 | 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Wayapa is an earth connection practice that is based on ancient Indigenous wisdom that focuses on taking care of the Earth as the starting point for creating Earth Mind Body Spirit well-being. Through a combination of Earth mindfulness, narrative meditation, a series of physical movements and taking action to look after the planet, Wayapa provides a sense of belonging to the Earth while creating holistic well-being.

You will be guided by Justine Cooper, who has trained in a number of Medicinal Movement practices and is a qualified Yoga Teacher. Justine’s connection to the Earth is deeply rooted in her heritage. With connections to the Palawa people in Tasmania, her work in Cultural Heritage for the Bunurong Land Council serves as an extension of her love for Country. Bookings essential.
