Sound Healing

Michelle is a qualified Sound Healer Practitioner of Small Groups. She facilitates Sound Healing feature events as well as runs Artist Educator Sound Healing Workshops at the Rockhampton Museum of Art. Michelle is available to develop bespoke events for private functions (eg. baby shower / bridal showers) and in a corproate setting (eg. team building / conference ice breakers).

Integral Sound Healing intergrates modern science, ancient wisdom, music & the healing arts.

Healing with sound has been widely used throughtout the world for thousands of years. It's a form of vibartional medicine that helps to balance all aspects of your being - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. When we're out of balance, we tend to experience aches, pains, illness & disease. By fine tuning our body by receiving sounds, we can restore balance & activate the body's natural healing abilities.

Laughter Yoga sessions

Laughter Yoga

Michelle facilitates Laughter Yoga sessions for corporate groups and various organizations including the Rockhampton Library, the Rockhampton Museum of Art (River FestX), Bidgertii Community Health Service, The Capricornian, Stanwell Corporation & The Agency.

Laughter has many benefits including improving physical, mental and social aspects of your health & wellbeing. It's a great connector for teams and groups.

Laughter Yoga was founded in India (1995) and is less about yoga poses and more about laughter, clapping & breathing exercises. It's a process that allows you to laugh even if you don't feel like it. Our brains can't tell the difference between actual and fake laughter.

Michelle holds a Laughter Yoga Leader qualification from the Laughter Yoga International University.

ROCKHAMPTON: Introduction to Mindfulness & Meditation: Next Date: 19 & 26 February, 2025 Time: 6-8pm Mindfulness Courses Rockhampton - Mindfulness Works Australia
Testimonial: I thought it was normal to feel stressed, to live with tension and lack of sleep. I had tried a lot of different things to help me sleep but nothing seemed to work … until I learnt about mindfulness. It is easy to incorporate mindfulness into everyday life, it gives an inner calmness, feeling of peace, and a regained sense of self. Michelle is an amazing facilitator of Mindfulness Works Australia. She presents the sessions in a very pleasant and friendly yet very professional manner; ensuring that all points are covered and understood by each attendee. Her lovely voice is so calming as she leads into the meditations that everyone gets to experience and understand true mindfulness. Pam H.

Testimonial: I would like to share my thoughts on the Mindfulness Works sessions that I attended with Michelle Ryan as the presenter. Firstly, I was unsure as to how I’d go in a group session, however I was pleasantly surprised and felt very comfortable. Michelle has a way of making people feel relaxed and calm – her manner and voice is just so peaceful and obviously this is what we are all looking for when we attend this type of session. Listening to Michelle’s journey to becoming such a ‘mindful’ person is endearing and something I am striving for. Her calm, tranquil demeanour is amazing. These sessions were helpful to me and changed my whole way of thinking and made me realise there are ways to deal with our daily stressful lives. Julie C.
