Hey Fluro Frothers, I hope Y'all are highly excited for some salt water therapy. The ocean is screaming out for us to jump in and catch that fluro wave.

introducing rob !! 💥
rob has been one of our fluro regulars for quite some time now, and never fails to bring SO much light and laughter to our free the funk circles 🙌🏽🌈🧡
as some of you will know, due to personal circumstances our current tribe leader has been m.i.a. for a few months now (but has still been working behind the scenes managing our social media and content !!) ✨ rob and a bunch of other fluro frothers have been holding the fort in her (a.k.a. “my” 🤪) absence and rob will now be taking over the role of tribe leader for a little while, including managing the socials 🙏🏽 show him some love !! this friday, 6:30 a.m. @ town beach !!

OneWave OneWave is a non-profit surf community raising awareness of mental health through a simple recipe…saltwater therapy, surfing and fluro. We believe that everyone should have the chance to ride waves and openly talk about mental health without being judged.

happy thursday fluro frothers!
unfortunately, due to tribe leader being on another cheeky getaway, & w/ a bit of forecasted drizzle heading for port mac, tmrw’s fluro friday free the funk circle is cancelled 🌈⛈✨
however, this is your reminder to check in with yourself & your mates! how are you doing in these unsteady times? 2022 has already delivered a few hurdles, but also SO many gems to be grateful for 🙌🏽✨ last week we chatted about overcoming our fear of leaping into the unknown & letting go of the doubt that our past shortcomings have embedded within us 🧚🏽‍♀️🌙 it can be difficult to continue to back yourself when you’ve fallen short before. but each time you try in whatever your endeavour is - a new business venture, a gym pb, an imperfect recipe - that hardwiring in your brain (all those synapses & neurocircuitry for you science buffs!!) becomes a little stronger, & your unused neural pathways shrink. practice trying, trying, & trying again and you will expand and grow - you have the power to rebel against those self-doubts like the fierce and incredible human you are 🌞🦋
swipe for a little fluro encounter i had this week on my travels! with love, from the stunning hunter valley gardens 🌻🌱🌼

looking back on 2021 like… 👆🏽
what a year it has been! here in port mac we have been tossed through the ringer as we felt the effects of devastating floods, lockdowns, and the global pandemic on everyone’s mind 🧠⚡️ yet, through it all, we have celebrated new friendships, new jobs, new hobbies, a WHOLE lotta self-growth, & most importantly just surviving: hanging in there on the hard days, reaching out for help, and waking up every day as we completed another orbit around the sun 🌞🌼🦋 there is so much pride to be taken in simply existing this year, regardless of whether you exceeded or fell short of your goals !! here’s to entering the new year with grace, self-compassion, and gratitude. we are so thankful to be able to free the funk every friday morn w/ an incredible backdrop, close-knit community, & the best brews & brekky ⚓️🤍
unfortunately we are signing off from 2021 with no formal fluro friday tomorrow, due to tribe leader being in self-iso (all is okay!) 🧚🏽‍♀️✨ however, we encourage y’all to get fluro & soak up some sunshine & saltwater therapy at the usual time & place!! sending good vibes, good health & a whole lotta love 🌈✨🧠🌊⚡️

merry christmas from the port mac tribe !! we hope that this festive season is one of joy, connection & compassion. 🤎 with all the chaos occurring in the world now, remember that it is okay if you aren’t feeling extra festive !! take a break, look after yourself & check in on your friends & family. we will see you next friday morn for the last fluro free the funk circle of 2021 !! 🌈✨

our incredible, emotional & compassionate free the funk circle this morn, captured by the groovers 🙌🏽✨
SO thankful for the chats shared today, as we held space for the week’s gems & funky moments 🌈 amongst the good vibes were stories of overcoming heartbreak & injury in sport; carrying the anxiety of others doing it tough, and remembering to check in with ourselves too; redirecting our inner voice that tries to convince us that we “deserve” hardship; letting go of anger, and feeling our energy return; and counting the little wins when we’ve fallen short of goals whilst living in “survival mode” 🌊🤍💫
this festive season is so abundant with joy - yet for many, it is a difficult time of year. please know that our community is here to champion you through the funk! if you are in need of professional support, we encourage you to access any of these incredible services (trialled & tested by some of our regular fluro frothers!!). you matter. your mental health matters. check in on your mates throughout the week, and we will be back to greet you next friday morn (chrissy eve) for a festive fluro circle!! 6:30 a.m. @ town beach, port mac 📍🧚🏽‍♀️✨

HELLO FRIDAY 🙌🏽🌈⚡️
so grateful for another epic fluro this morn! we got some funky stuff off of our chests & collectively thanked the return of some port mac sunshine 🌞🤍🌊 we chatted about how we were all feeling a little restless & worn out this week - but a little warmth, salty air & a whole lotta community ♥️ were instant mood boosters! (fun fact: exposure to sunlight boosts our levels of serotonin (the mood stabilising hormone), and promotes the production of melatonin (important in regulating our sleep cycles!)) 🧠✨
have a great week fluro frothers! we hope that you’re heading into the wknd with the same level of stoke as 🌙🧡 !!

now this is the kinda friday morning energy we can get around! ✨ we’ll see y’all bright & early tmrw for fluro friday 🌈🙌🏽 6:30 a.m. @ town beach, port mac! drop in for a chat as we band together & share our highs & lows of the week, moments of gratitude, & a whole lotta wholesome energy 🤍⚡️🌊 all welcome! spread the word!
