About the facilitators

Sonja Mapleston is an educator and Yoga and Meditation teacher. Sonja runs group mindfulness experiences to inspire and empower individuals and strengthen community well-being. She weaves together ancient knowledge and rituals with modern science, utilising a range of proven techniques (art, circling, ceremony, meditation) to create unique workshops, programs and retreats that help us to unplug and foster authentic connection – to ourselves, to the Earth and to each other.

Celia Roberts introduces us to deeper dimensions of Yoga, Meditation & Lifestyle Medicine. Celia runs the BioMedical Institute of Yoga & Meditation in the foothills of Brisbane, Australia, and reaches a global online audience with Yoga and Meditation Teacher Training. She invites people from all walks of life to merge science and spirituality for betterment of their health and well-being, to ultimately have deeper insight and know true compassion within.
