Where cutting edge science meets indigenous wisdom
Science is now telling us what Indigenous people have known for thousands of years. We are much more powerful than we ever imagined and are all deeply interconnected.
This is the first and very rare opportunity to receive teachings directly from Arrernte knowledge and wisdom keepers who are from a long lineage of ancient songline and creation story holders in central australia. Specifically, a few hours east of Alice Springs in a place called Urlpmerre, rain dreaming country .
“I have come away from the Return to Wisdom experience more grounded in my life than ever before, and with a deeper connection to this land and its first people that I believe will stay with me as a compass throughout my life.”

Mali Njordah
Aneme Ware – Just Be
Aneme Ware an Arrernte phrase in its regular use means just sitting or being. Aneme ( pronounced ‘anumb ah ) means sitting and Ware (pronounced war ‘ar’ as in star ) ( ‘e’ ah - war - ah ) means , that’s all, nothing ,(more or less)
“ We understand the depth of this phrase to be profoundly spiritual in connecting with country spirit, ancestor spirit and our own spirit in a place. To ‘Just Be’ means to be present in mind, body , soul with your surroundings , to not be anywhere else in place or time... but here right now “ Mali Njordah , 2018
Mali was born 1964 in Port Augusta , South Australia to an Arrernte (Kngwarraye/Penangke) woman from Alice Springs and strongly identifies as an Arrernte woman herself.
After completing her studies in the 80’s and teaching/working for a year in Port Augusta and Adelaide she followed her Ancestor within her . Calling her back to Country where she has lived for most of her adult life in and surrounding Alice Springs, Central Australia.
In this time on Country her spiritual awareness was being fine tuned and today continues to heighten on her life’s journey .
For the past 15 years Mali has been actively engaging with ancient plant medicines making ointments, oils , clearing and balancing energies and supporting her family wherever she can. She has spent many years working with Elders and Youth.
This is the first and very rare opportunity to receive teachings directly from Arrernte knowledge and wisdom keepers who are from a long lineage of ancient songline and creation story holders in central Australia.
