Welcome to Space to Meander, Wonder, Reflect’s Substack!

Hi, I’m Charlene McAuley, and I’m grateful to have you here reading these words.

This fortnightly newsletter is to quench my thirst for writing and to share as I’d speak with friends, colleagues, clients, rather than trying to satisfy the algorithm. I find chasing the rules of social media exhausting and soul-destroying, talking to readers like objects to be sold to rather than whole people with a myriad of interests, gifts, and challenges. This newsletter is about sharing what makes me tick, tools for embodiment, encouraging wonder, as well as inspiration from the arts. You won’t find prescriptive how-tos here, rather it’s a space with the guiding intention to Meander, Wonder, and Reflect.

As a senior Yoga teacher, Year 3 trainee in Gestalt Psychotherapy and an embodiment explorer of many years, with a Masters in International Relations and Globalisation, all that you read is grounded in at least one of these interweaving paths that are brought to life with personal anecdotes. How our bodyminds interact within and in relationship to the world around is the golden thread of this embodiment Substack, a thread that has nurtured me, allows me to be in service to others, and has now brought me here sharing with you!

My other offerings over on sensesbeyond.com include weekly online classes, online platform, retreats, workshops, and private classes.
