Art of WellBeing at Taruna College

The Art of WellBeing' invites you to three five-day seminars over 2025.

The programme is gentle yet enquiring, focusing on three themes that renew our well-being: Art, Life-story work and Contemporary, holistic thinking.

What is Well-being?

At Taruna, well-being is understood as a sense of being fully available to life – drawing from the well-spring that lets us best connect and sustain the relationship we have with ourselves, as well as with the people and work that matter to us. Perhaps now more than ever, ‘well-being’ is being deeply challenged. So a central aim of the programme is to offer tools and insights to develop skills and abilities that support and sustain our own well-being. This way we are helped to strengthen our inner knowing, bringing us greater resilience and certainty. In turn this builds our capacity for relationship and strengthens the connections we have to others in our life.

Course Overview and Design

The Art of Well-Being is a three-seminar programme, each seminar runs for five days and the programme is completed over the course of a year.

Guiding motif each Seminar

Each seminar has a central motif that guides the learning experience for that week. In Seminar One it is the Lemniscate – a form that moves between inner and outer, and invites our consciousness at the crossing point between these two worlds.

Seminar One: 26 May - 30 May, Seminar Two: 25 Aug - 29 Aug, Seminar Three: 3 Nov - 7 Nov 2025.
