About Morning Mindfulness
Breathwork. Connection. Community. Healing.
Welcome to Morning Mindfulness — a grounded, heart-led space for breathwork, mindfulness, and holistic healing based in Newcastle, NSW.
But more than that, this is a movement for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in their head — and is ready to feel differently.
We’ve Worked With
A Message from Alycia,
Founder of Morning Mindfulness
I grew up in a tiny coastal town on the mid-north coast of Australia — a population of just 1,764 people. Like many Australian communities, ours had its share of beauty, but also unspoken struggles.
There was no real access to mental health support. No one taught us how to regulate our emotions, how to sit with discomfort, or how to process the chaos that life sometimes brings.
What we did have was a culture of drinking, domestic violence in homes, and silence. I watched the heartbreaking ripple effects of suicide move through our high school — a devastating result of a community without tools.
And like many others, I coped the only way I knew how: by keeping busy. From the age of 17, I moved solo across three different states in Australia, chasing external fixes. Clean eating, intense fitness, career ambition — I kept going, doing, achieving... until I couldn’t ignore the truth anymore.
I was terrified of stillness — because I didn’t know how to sit with my own thoughts.

The Moment Everything Changed
It wasn’t until a chance encounter with a community Wim Hof breathwork class on the Sunshine Coast that something shifted. In a 30-minute session, I experienced something I had never felt before:
Silence. Stillness. Peace.
For the first time in my life, my mind went quiet — and in that fleeting moment, I knew I’d found something powerful.
From there, I dove headfirst into breathwork, nervous system regulation, trauma-informed mindfulness, and holistic mental health education.
What started as personal healing quickly became my life’s work.
