Meditation at the Museum

Ages: 16+

For a peaceful, uninterrupted 45 minutes, we invite you to relax in the inspiring surrounds of the Australian Museum, amongst objects and specimens that tell us fascinating stories from the past. Guided by actor, presenter and yogi Rachael Coopes, these regular mindfulness and meditation sessions will help you focus on the present, ground yourself and set you up for a more productive week.

These morning meditations will help you build skills such as patience, tolerance and self-awareness, to manage the stress and anxiety that often comes with our busy lives.

Please meet at the entry to Crystal Hall on arrival.
