THE AYUVERDIC WELLNESS CENTRE | A TOUCH OF ANCEINT HEALING WISDOM



Last Tuesday, I went to the opening of Australia's first ever, truly authentic Ayurvedic Treatment Centre at Bondi & I invited Natasa to come with me.

The centre is opened by Rita Sagrani, who sold her fashion business to launch a much needed traditional treatment centre after having to travel every year to India to overcome her personal health challenges. Ayurveda is India's ancient science of life and longevity and is the healing or therapeutic sister science to Yoga. Each treatment is catered to the individual according to their own unique body type and personal structure, where traditional therapies detoxify the body and balance the mind, body and spirit. Herbal oils and natural ingredients are processed and used for each treatment and the massage therapists are trained from India, which means the experience will be entirely authentic.

One treatment in particular I was remember that was mentioned was the 2 letres of oil used to massage all over your body. Plus also another treatment where 2 letres of oil is slowly poured through over your forehead. It will apparently make you feel relaxed and out of this world. ( I can imagine!) I have yet to try, but will be very shortly! Will be a very very interesting experience.

The food on the night was all organic and vegetarian too! A very healthy change for me. The drinks were of course non alcoholic including mint and punch, and also another fruit punch with beetroot juice.

I do encourage you to take a look on their site to browse at some of their different treatments and history- here

THE GIVEABILITY STORE | BONDI JUNCTION WESTFIELD | WHO MAGAZINE


During the day on Tuesday, I was invited to the celebration of the pop up of The Giveability store (a glass box, to put it in simple terms) launched by Westfield and WHO Magazine and presented by Miranda Otto at Bondi Junction. The Giveability store is a fashion charity store that stocks second hand designer items which are donated by celebrities and designers to raise much needed funds for children with cerebral palsy. Many major fashion brands and celebs including Kylie Minogue, Rose Byrne, Anthony La Paglia, Melissa George, Naomi Watts, Liev Schrieber and Miranda Otto herself, have joined in this great initiative to support children and their families.

To make this a truly nationwide cause, 5 key items have been put up for auction online on www.westfield.com.au including a ring worn by Drew Barrymore, signed crew tee by Kylie Minogue, Anthony LaPaglia’s jacket, a vanity case by Naomi Watts and Olympic gold medalist Torah Bright’s snowboarding outfit and Roxy snowboard. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Cerebral Palsy Alliance.

I really think it's a great cause and so good to see people helping children and others in need.

Take the time to watch the videos that records the speeches with Miranda Otto talking about the cause and how it came about, plus also an overview look inside of the store.
