Country-led immersions

Country-Led Immersions are more than cultural training—they are profound journeys where listening, storytelling, deep history, language, ecology, and anti-colonial action converge. These experiences are designed to encourage deep connections between Country, relationships, and the way we move through the world.
At the heart of these immersions is the aim to disrupt colonial perspectives that create separation, inviting participants to deeply reflect on their relationalities and translate this understanding into meaningful action or inaction. Through guided practices, you’ll connect with agencies that are often overlooked.
How You Can Work With Me
I offer a range of services;

Arlene gili mehan and kin
Arlene is a Birrbay, Dunghutti, and Irish woman who grew up being guided by Birrbay Barray around Guruk or so-called Port Macquarie.
As a daily practice, she apprentices herself to Country. Arlene is an Indigenous Ecologist with a Bachelor of Trauma and Healing, a grad cert of Indigenous Research and leadership, and now working toward a PhD.
She focusses her work to help guide humans back to deep listening to remember ecological connections, de-centre human authority and care for Country in a way that is deeply relational.
Arlene calls in kin and community members to help in this important work, including Elders, bush guides, or other community members to co-design, share stories, and experiences with Country.
📍On unceded Country, I acknowledge First Nations peoples, cultures, languages, specifically Birpai and Dunghutti Countries - the lands in which I work and live on. Deeply honour Elders (knowing-ones) who continue to teach right-way relationships, and extend respect to First Nations peoples interacting with this site.
