What we’re about
Hi everyone, I decided to take over this group (July 2022) as it kept popping up in my feed and I am passionate about sharing the benefits of practising mindfulness and meditation as they have been life changing for me. :)
My name is Michelle and I am a mindfulness and meditation educator and owner of Meditation Sunshine Coast and author of Cultivating a Calm Mind. I offer:
- Monthly community classes
- Group programs
- Workplace workshops
- Coaching
- Retreats
I am also happy to list events from other teachers for a listing fee of $5 per event to help cover the annual meetup subscription cost for the group (approx $300 per year). They just need to include a significant meditation component (i.e. not yoga classes sorry as there are already lots of yoga groups). Please send me a message and I can make you an event host so you can upload your events.
I also run this group if you are aged between 40 and 55 and would like to socialise with fun friendly people around the coast:

ABOUT OKINAWA
Menso-re: “Welcome to Okinawa!”
The people of Okinawa, formerly called the Ryukyu Kingdom, were a mixture of three main Asian cultures: Mongolian, Ainu, and Malayan. The Okinawans adapted what they borrowed from their neighbours and created their own unique culture.
Okinawans embrace visitors with their warm hospitality, great food, arts and crafts, beaches, snorkelling and forests for hiking.
Diet, exercise and lifestyle practices make the Okinawans the healthiest and longest-lived population in the world. It is also said to be the home of Ikigai…..WHAT IS IKIGAI?
We all have an ikigai. It's the Japanese word for 'a reason to live' or 'a reason to jump out of bed in the morning'. It's the place where your needs, desires, ambitions, and satisfaction meet. A place of balance. Small wonder that finding your ikigai is closely linked to living longer. Finding your ikigai is easier than you might think. You have a purpose in this world: your skills, your interests, your desires and your history have made you the perfect candidate for something. All you have to do is find it. Do that, and you can make every single day of your life joyful and meaningful….ACTIVITIES
