WAYAPA® WUURRK
This is such an important healing modality for me to help share the innate connections First Nations Peoples of Australia have with Country and how to care for it.
Together we can make a difference as agents of positive change. This is a really powerful connective process.
"Here we feel our minds, bodies, Spirit and Country come together."
You will be introduced to the 14 Wayapa Elements to help deepen our connection with Mother Earth.
This will be interwoven with discussions around sustainable development goals and sustainability. This can include food waste, food systems, seasons and the human impact on our environment.
