Welcome! I'm so glad you've landed here, my name is Meredith Dolan, I am a Merimbula based Body Work enthusiast. My passion for Body Work was ignited after learning Reiki and becoming a teacher many years ago. I was quickly led to the work of Don McFarland and Body Harmony®. Many years later and I am still learning. Recently I completed training in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. Movement and Body Work practices have long held my curiosity and passion. Not only do they contribute to physical resilience, they support emotional stability, nervous system regulation and contribute positive results in the recovery from traumatic experiences. I have taught Yoga in the Bega Valley for 32 years and am committed to continuous eduction in the field. I am a Body Harmony® Association Teacher and a graduate of Somatic Experiencing Trauma Resolution Training developed by Peter Levine. My background in yoga teacher training began with Satyananda Yoga in 1992 followed by Dru Yoga in 2008 and Hanna Somatic Movement in 2015. I look forward to travelling with you, be that a little way or a long way on this amazing transformational journey called Life...the choice is yours…xxx

Your body is the reflection of your thoughts, feelings and experiences…it is your psychology in action...Your beliefs, values and intentions are encoded in the unique structure that is your body.
Some of the many benefits from deep transformational sessions are:
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Sessions available by appointment
BCST is an advanced body/mind therapy that combines a Western scientific understanding of the body with mindfulness skills, a unique type of touch and an appreciation of the body’s ability to heal itself. A core principle of BCST is that health is always present in every body. Sometimes when the focus has been on illness, pain or pathology, it is possible to lose a connection with the underlying feelings of health, comfort and ease. BCST can help you reconnect to the health and vitality within you. The touch is light and reverential, and there is never any pressure, manipulation or force.
Body Harmony® Sessions
Sessions available by appointment
One-on-one experiences with a Body Harmony practitioner are commonly referred to as Body Harmony® sessions or Body Harmony® treatments. In these sessions, the practitioner collaborates with the client by using a variety of skills including touch, discussion, observations of movement. Learning to listen deeply and compassionately is a fundamental skill any Body Harmony practitioner is required to foster. Clients take these sessions fully clothed and much of a Body Harmony session occurs laying on a massage table.
Body Harmony® Seminars
Seminars available by appointment
The application of the Body Harmony® touch activates the possibility of change at an organic level. Each practitioner brings their own unique awareness and perspective to the work. Body Harmony® seminars and workshops continually invite both the practitioner and the client to educate and hone their skills in the art of hands-on therapy. No two sessions are alike and no two practitioners are the same. Our work gets better and better as we explore the transformational environment created when we come together in the Spirit of Body Harmony®.
Yoga Classes
Private classes and group enquiries are available by appointment
I have a holistic approach to yoga practice, drawing on more than 32 years of experience. Movement therapy, as a healing tool, has for a long time inspired and supported my Body Harmony® practice and my personal development. Yoga and Hanna Somatic Movement is a wonderful foundation from which to creatively explore your personal transformational style. Dru Yoga, with its deep and gentle meditative qualities and Hanna Somatic Movement, are at the heart of my practice. Private one to one sessions and small groups welcome.
Rebirthing
Sessions available by appointment
Conscious connected breath is a magic carpet ride to the zone of untapped potential. Rebirthing sessions offer the time, space and conditions to promote a fresh outlook on life. As physical tensions dissolve, the mind becomes clearer and emotions find stability. Your relationship, both with life and with others is enhanced with clarity, compassion and wisdom. More happiness can flow through the tissues of the body when the inner tensions dissolve, resolve and integrate. Breath is a powerful transformational tool; it is easily explored and always available.
