**IYA Roxanne and Sandro Alawode**
We are passionate about collaborating and co-creating events that support the arts, culture, natural medicine and ecological living.

Iya and Sandro have dedicated the past 25 years to the deep self inquiry and spiritual exploration into the vast and varied world of sacred healing modalities and higher consciousness.
“ we came to realise - no one can heal you as such. At best, they can remind you of your greatness- that is ALREADY HEALED! Our outcome is to provide inspiring facilities and accommodation to gather groups of people to rest, recalibrate and create magic together . “

Wollumbin

WOLLUMBIN, THE WARRIOR CHIEF & THE TURKEY

Wollumbin stands as a majestic mountain in a bowl–shaped valley surrounded by a ring of mountain ranges, the Mt Warning Caldera, standing at 1157 metres high today. Twenty million years ago, it was the main plug or outlet of the massive volcano from which poured lava, forming the mountains and reefs in the northeast corner of New South Wales.

Wollumbin has more than one legend attached to it. Some are linked to the origin of the name, Wollumbin. Some people also say Wollumbin means cloud catcher or weather-maker; others say it means Warrior Chief or Turkey.

Wollumbin – The Warrior Chief: The word, Wollumbin, is also said to mean warrior or fighting chief of the mountain. Legend has it that the spirits of the mountains were warriors. The wounds they received in battles are the scars on the mountainside, and the thunder and lightning are the results of their battles. If you look today towards Wollumbin from certain angles, you will see the face of the warrior chief in the mountain outline. Wollumbin is a very sacred initiation site for men. In traditional Aboriginal life, only the fully initiated men could go to the top of the mountain. This importance and the legends that remain today demonstrate the significance of this sacred and imposing mountain on the people of the valley.

Wollumbin – The Turkey: Once, a long time ago, turkeys could fly greater distances than they can today. Well, one turkey flew from Mt Brown. He had joined a gathering of other birds talking when a giant bird approached. All the birds, the turkey too, were so frightened they flew away quickly. The turkey flew all the way to Wollumbin, stopping on the top of the great mountain to catch his breath, but as he rested, he was wounded in the head by a spear from a warrior. Because of his head wound, the turkey's flying ability was impaired. That is the reason why turkeys today can fly only short distances before they must rest; and if you look at Wollumbin you can see the mountain top has a small bend in it where the spear hit the turkey. The mountain tip is the point of the warriors spear.

About the People:

Bunjalung Nation

The Bunjalung People

Their religion provided an explanation for the world as experienced by the Bundjalung people and it gave them the laws that they followed daily. The foundation of their beliefs was the Dreamtime or [The] Dreaming.

They learned from their fathers over the centuries that the land was created through the movement and creation of spiritual beings and the creatures of nature.

There is a dreamtime story of Wollumbin,
said to be Warrior Chief of the mountain.

The spirits of the mountains were warriors. The wounds they received in battles can be seen as scars on the side of the mountain and the thunder and lightning are the effects of their battles. When you look toward Wollumbin from the north, you can see the face of the Warrior Chief in the mountain's outline.

Another sacred site with special significance for the Minjungbal people is located at South Tweed Heads. There is the sacred Bora Ground, and surrounding bushland that links them spiritually to their ancestors. It was last used traditionally in 1910.
