At our last music night we enjoyed the awesome talents of multi-instrumentalist singer/song writer Simon Monsour, Rose came out of the closet with her harmonium, and Alistair Melville played an achingly beautiful tribute to his mother on piano. Each music night so far has had its unexpected wonders and moments of magic. On December 18 we'll be celebrating not only Christmas, but our first year of living in intentional community at Bellbunya, so the stage is set for a night to remember. Hope you can join us!

You may wish to stay over at Bellbunya. If you would like your own room, take a look at our accommodation options.

Venue:  Bellbunya retreat about 20 mins.  west of Eumundi. Cost $315. Includes twin rooms and linen supplied. Bring Vegetarian food to share. (Meat is too heavy for powerful inner work of this nature.)

I am Rudran Brannock. I am trained in Rebirthing, Group facilitation, Counseling and teach Aikido and Yoga. I am a student of Tantra and Shamanism. I have been involved in Men’s Deep inner work for 13 years including membership of MHWAQ and as the staff holder of Manshine 2000. I have facilitated many times at the Manshine and Manhood gatherings. I am the visionary/founder of The Joining, a community and 3-day event which promotes the coming together of the masculine and the feminine both internally and in our relationships.
