Re: Suncoast Yoga and Healing class restrictions

I am employed full time at the Sunshine Coast University Hospital as a Registered Nurse in the
Intensive Care Unit. Like many others who attend Suncoast Yoga and Healing, I was in desperate
need of back pain relief. I had also hoped to gain skills which would enable me to manage multiple,
compounding mental stressors. I achieved this, and more.

In the short time I have been attending Suncoast Yoga and Healing I have experienced exponential
holistic health benefits. My lower back pain is rapidly diminishing. I have increased mental health
resilience and my sense of community has deepened.

I have attended Yoga sessions in the past, however I have never been on an all-encompassing mind
and body Yoga journey as I have at this Tinbeerwah sanctuary. I do not have the words to express
how grateful I am to Jen and the team who have given me back more than I could have hoped for.
This convalescence has given me freedom from chronic pain, increased flexibility and given me
fortitude. As a result. I continue to carry out my profession at my highest capacity, aiding in effective
resuscitation, improving critical illness outcomes, and educating and empowering patients. My family,
friends, neighbours etc also gain from my significantly improved physical and emotional health.

I am excited for my journey to continue at Suncoast however it is sadly impaired. Due to the
combination of a limited timetable, restricted class numbers and my work commitments of 12-hour
shifts including days/nights/weekdays and weekends, I am fortunate if I can attend one class a
week. I would very much love the option of more classes.

I attribute my recovery not only to the wonderful team, but also the healing surrounds of nature at
the idyllic property at the base of Mount Tinbeerwah. I am aware that the issue is regarding
residential environmental noise. Please try and understand that my fellow community members who
attend Suncoast are seeking the same, if not similar, healing and solace that I did. We are a quiet,
nature respecting, human-centred group who arrive at this magnificent Tinbeerwah property seeking
peace, we find it, and we take that with us and share it.

 Please assist Suncoast Healing and Yoga Centre in helping our community by alleviating the burden
of our modern life stressors through imparting their wisdom and knowledge and spreading peace
and happiness, This holistic approach to heath cannot be achieved in a brightly lit, loud gymnasium,
the peaceful natural sounds and silence of Mount Tinbeerwah is an integral part of the healing
journey.

Really, you should come and try it! Only then will you truly know the benefits.

I kindly thank you for your consideration on this matter.

Yours truly,
Heike Cevasco
