Wayapa Wuurrk and National Reconciliation Week

Health

In light of National Reconciliation Week, we speak with founder of Wayapa Wuurrk, Jamie Thomas about the work that lead to their practice of earth connection and mindfulness.

National Reconciliation Week from May 27th to June 3rd is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

This year’s theme “Be Brave, Make Change,” is a challenge to all Australians to Be Brave and tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation so we can Make Change for the benefit of all Australians.

You can find more information about Wayapa Wuurrk on their website.
