A moment to breathe

After two years that have tested the community, JCA Women’s Division invites women from across Sydney to come together for a morning of reflection on Sunday, November 16.

JCA Women’s Brunch offers a rare opportunity to pause and focus inward. In the wake of the events of October 7, 2023, our community has shown resilience and unity. Yet, with that strength has come a deep emotional toll. This event is designed to help women prioritise their own wellbeing, recognising that self-care is not indulgent, it’s essential.

Just as we’re reminded on an aeroplane to “put on your own oxygen mask first”, this gathering encourages participants to take the time to care for themselves so they can continue to care for those around them.

The morning will be hosted by award-winning Sky News journalist and author Sharri Markson, who will guide the conversation and share her insights.

Joining Markson will be Lara Zilibowitz, an internationally recognised yoga teacher and art therapist, who will lead guests through a grounding session of self-connection and creativity. Zilibowitz’s practice is centred on the belief that movement, mindfulness and art can help calm the nervous system, unlock emotion and foster clarity.
