What a beautiful day it was to celebrate the first gathering of the Well Woman Expo on Tamborine Mountain. A special gathering and welcoming by Aboriginal elder, Aunty Ruby Rose (via speaker phone!) set the tone for the importance of connecting community, supporting and uplifting one another in the morning.
The glorious weather allowed for some meandering through a variety of stalls, demonstrations of yoga, stretching, meditation, zumba and enjoying the free esoteric massages, facials and art therapy with the sounds of drumming in the background.
