Top 5 Melbourne Wellness Activities To Mix It Up This Spring
Our 5 Fave Wellness Activities In Melbourne If You’re Looking To Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone
Australia’s health and wellness industry is a wide-ranging and eclectic mix.
Made up of everything from skincare and spa days to the slightly less conventional activities, it’s a part of most of our lives, whether it’s a simple QV Ceramides routine at home or a way we build community out and about.
If you’re a Melburnian hoping to focus on your wellbeing, we’ve collated all the best social and solo pursuits going so you can kick your wellness journey up a notch.
You’ve heard of coffee raves but could this be the new frontier? Rather than performatively reading in a park by yourself or without people seeing (ew), this new event is combining community with the classics. On Sunday, September 27, this performative reading party will let you take your literary hobby to the next level, chatting with others and soaking up the scholarly atmosphere. And don’t forget, it’s BYOB (Bring Your Own Book).

A part of Fed Square’s RESET festival, this free event is the perfect reset for anyone tired of the constant doom-scrolling cycle. Tactile and screen-free, collage from a shared prompt and release whatever baggage you’ve been holding onto (no judgement here). Scheduled for September 19, this event promises mindfulness and chic junk… if there is such a thing.

Weekly run clubs are a great way to build community (and yes, some use them for dating options). Combining fitness, outdoor activities and socialising, what more wellness could you need? A run club like Tanaka, which meets every Wednesday and Sunday at local cafe Fenton Farmhouse — a zero-waste produce paddock-to-plate cafe — offers opportunities not just to get your km’s up but to grab coffees after, take part in bake sales and make new mates.

Fans of house music and wellbeing unite. St Kilda’s Infinite.co has launched Flows ‘N Frequencies: a monthly breathwork class paid with a ripper playlist so you can breathe deep and enjoy the musical stylings of your favourite artists. On the docket this month? Deep house band Rufus De Sol. If that’s not your speed, next month will feature a 90s playlist for all nostalgic millennials amongst you.

Of course, if you’re more of a homebody, you can always do an at-home spa day with QV’s Ceramides range. With its easy two-step routine and triple ceramide formulation, you can pamper yourself at home while helping to hydrate your skin.
