Raja Yoga - Online Course
This course, facilitated by Wendy Dixon, explores the concepts and exercises in Wallace Slater’s book *A Simplified Course of Raja Yoga*, which follows the Yoga Sutras or Aphorisms of Patanjali.
We meet online every Wednesday night and follow the 10-lesson structure created by Slater, allowing a month for each lesson. We will thoroughly explore each step, with time for discussion and practice.
Each session contains material on one or more of the eight limbs of yoga, so named by Patanjali - self-restraint (yama), self-discipline (niyama), posture (āsana), control of breath (prānayāma), control of the sense (pratyāhāra), concentration (dhāranā), meditation (dhyāna) and contemplation (samādhi).
Additional material is sourced from I. K. Taimni, Swami Vivekananda, H. P. Blavatsky and contemporary Raja Yoga books.
We begin and close each session with sitting meditations.
**This is an ongoing course that you can join at any time.**

Sketchy Behaviour with Roxy Rawhide (Fun Art Workshop)
Adults have basically been robbed of the right to play. Creativity started needing a purpose, a product, or at least a gallery invite. Meanwhile, it’s human to dance, it’s human to sing, and it’s human to draw, especially poorly!
Sketchy Behaviour is here to break that spell.
([Link to tickets here](https://www.trybooking.com/DIGHO))
Doors open at 6pm, settle in and get your drinks at the bar (mocktails available).
At 7pm, the night begins:
• Guided drawing activities with your host, prompts and visual inspiration provided
• Three activities/games per night a mix of collaborative chaos and solo scribbling
• Breaks between rounds to regroup, hit the bathroom, top up a drink, grab some nibbles, and mingle with fellow doodlers
It’s all about connecting through process rather than polishing a product.
Expect laughter, strange drawings, and surprising conversations. In a world drowning in increasingly polished AI art, making something imperfect is a revolutionary act.
Supplies provided.
Masks welcome.
Sharing your weird creations, highly recommended.
Come draw like a kid, laugh like a fool, and leave with memories instead of masterpieces.
Note: Pride of our Footscray is located on the first floor of a building with no elevator and is therefore not wheelchair accessible. We apologise for our reduced accessibility.

Nature, Wildlife – Grampians Hiking Tour
This is not a sightseeing bus tour. It’s a slow-travel, small-group Max 11 Guests, Grampians experience designed for travelers who want to walk, explore, and connect with nature respectfully.
Discover the Grampians on a premium small-group day experience designed for travelers who want more than a standard sightseeing tour. This journey focuses on guided hiking, respectful wildlife observation, and deep connection with nature, delivered at a relaxed and thoughtful pace.
Your day begins with a scenic drive into the Grampians, where dramatic mountain ranges, ancient rock formations, and open bushland set the tone for the experience. Our approach is simple: less rushing, more exploring.
We visit Booroka Lookout, one of the region’s most impressive viewpoints, offering sweeping panoramic views across the surrounding plains and ranges. Time is given to walk, observe, and appreciate the scale of the landscape rather than rushing through photo stops.
Grand Canyon hike in Grampians National Park, starting from Wonderland Carpark and walking through Cool Chamber, Bridal Veil Falls and Silent Street to reach the Pinnacle Lookout. This is a return (two-way) hike, meaning we follow the same scenic route back to Wonderland Carpark, allowing guests to enjoy the dramatic rock formations and views from a different perspective on the way down.
The experience continues to The Balconies, where striking rock formations frame expansive views over the Grampians landscape. Short walks 2.2km allow you to fully engage with the scenery while learning about the area’s natural features.
We also spend time in Halls Gap, the cultural heart of the Grampians. This is where wildlife is often seen moving freely in its natural habitat. Kangaroos, emus, and native birdlife are commonly observed, always from a safe and respectful distance. No feeding, touching, or forced interaction is ever part of the experience.
Throughout the day, your guide prioritizes ethical wildlife observation, environmental respect, and small-group comfort. This tour is ideal for travelers who value sustainability, nature, and meaningful exploration.
This is not a rushed itinerary. It is a carefully curated Grampians experience for those who want to walk, observe, and truly connect with one of Victoria’s most remarkable natural regions.

This is your perfect Sunday plan! 🎉
We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Melbourne Social Hike. A welcoming day out where the focus is all about fun, friendships and fresh air. Whether you come solo or bring a mate, you’ll leave with new connections and memories!
-------------------------------------------------------
🚙 Carpooling Makes It Happen
Social Hikes Australia runs on community spirit and carpooling is a big part of that. Every seat offered means another hiker can join the adventure. Less cars, easier logistics, more fun together.
Carpooling is a great way to start the day by meet new people, share a few laughs, and arrive at the trail together. Drivers, your contribution makes a huge difference, and passengers, your gratitude keeps it all running smoothly. It’s simple, social and one of the best parts of the Social Hikes Australia experience. 🚗🌿
-------------------------------------------------------
👉 Carpool Driver information
If you’ve got spare seats and don’t mind some company, offering a lift is one of the best ways to kick off the day 🚙💨. It makes the trip more fun, helps out fellow hikers who don’t have a car and is an easy way to make a few friends before we even hit the trail. Plus, fewer cars means less parking stress and a smoother start for everyone.
For passengers, it’s the easiest way to get to the trail, meet new people and enjoy the ride together instead of travelling alone. In our Social Hikes Australia community, many people are more than happy to help out those without cars it’s part of what makes these days feel so welcoming and connected.
✨ Best practice: Passengers should try to secure transportation before purchasing a ticket to avoid any last-minute stress.
Important Carpooling Note
Drivers and passengers should stick with the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion.
If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are not liable for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with.
In the transport chat, drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations often major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne.
For this hike, the nearest station to the trail is Frankston , though drivers may choose whichever spot is most convenient for them. Passengers can then join from those locations.

How to Take Control of YOUR Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind.
Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Here is the secret of being positive and free:
Thinking positively is not enough.
You also have to get rid of the negative thinking.
Your mind is like a garden.
You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden.
A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed.
You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there.
So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out!
The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
