experience

We believe rest is a skill. One that requires slowness, sensory grounding and nervous system awareness. Our work creates space for people to pause, soften and reconnect with themselves through sound, breath and somatic presence.

Zara is the founder of Mellow Habits and one of Australia's most experienced sound healing practitioners and wellness speakers.

She has facilitated sound baths, breathwork and nervous system workshops for individuals and organisations across Australia and internationally, collaborating with partners including COMO Hotels Bangkok, COMO Shambhala, the National Gallery of Victoria, Mecca Beauty, Naturhotel Lüsnerhof Italy, Lon Retreat and Wolf Gym Baghdad.

Her work is rooted in the belief that rest is not passive. It is a practice. One that can be learnt, deepened and returned to, even by the busiest and most wired nervous systems.

Zara is available as a wellness speaker and sound healing facilitator for corporate events, conferences, hotel residencies, retreat programmes and hospitality partnerships across Australia and internationally.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A sound bath is an immersive wellness experience where you lie down and are bathed in the resonance of singing bowls, gongs and chimes. The vibrations support nervous system regulation, deep rest and improved sleep. No experience is required. You simply arrive and receive.

  • A floating sound bath is an immersive experience where participants float gently on water while instruments are played around them. Because water conducts sound more efficiently than air, the vibrations travel directly through the body, creating a deeper and more immediate experience of the sound. Mellow Habits offers floating sound baths across Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Byron Bay.

  • Sound bath experiences are available in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Byron Bay and Melbourne. Retreats and residencies are also offered internationally across Asia, the Middle East and Europe.

  • Yes. Zara is available for corporate events, conferences, workplace wellbeing programs, hotel residencies and retreat facilitation across Australia and internationally. She speaks on rest, nervous system regulation, burnout prevention, sound healing and simple approaches to meditation.
