Our focus is to help visitors find the most suitable wellbeing experiences & offerings available in Australia.
To do this, we categorise each listing (aka the ‘wellbeing experience’) according to the PERMA™ Theory of Wellbeing model, which defines five important building blocks of wellbeing and happiness:
Additionally, each listing is categorised with Experience Type:
Entertainment, Aesthetic, Sensory, Learning, Participation, Volunteer, Embodiment, Transformation
These categorisations are used as filters to help visitors find the wellbeing experiences they are looking for.
Our service is twofold…
For people searching online for Wellbeing experiences
We provide a single source to explore & find great Wellbeing Experiences all around Australia
For Australian Wellbeing providers of Wellbeing experiences and services
We provide a dedicated service to list and show off Australian Wellbeing provider experiences
Our web site & listings are optimised for search engines, ensuring the best possible discovery of Wellbeing listings via free-text searches on search engines.
Each listings is created for one of the five Listing Types:-
1) Place – a single physical Wellbeing location, area, or space
e.g. the location of a Wellbeing day spa & retreat
2) Product – for providers of Wellbeing (tangible) products
e.g. an online shop that sells Wellbeing food & health products
3) Service – for providers of Wellbeing services and (intangible) products
e.g. business that provides Wellbeing advice
4) Event – Wellbeing functions, meetups, festivals, expo’s, etc. These listings are FREE
e.g. an event, held on a set date, with some aspect of Wellbeing on the schedule
5) Knowledge – for providers of Wellbeing knowledge
e.g. an online Wellbeing course, podcast, book, or website
We actively search for & assess Australian wellbeing experiences, and create these as free listings.
Each of these free listings has a limited set of details – basic who, what, where, web details, with some contact details and social media links.

All Listing are ‘attached’ to one sub-category of the eight Wellbeing Dimensions.
The PERMA acronym is a model of Wellbeing theory in the field of positive psychology, by Martin Seligman. PERMA makes up five important building blocks of wellbeing and happiness:
Positive Emotion : feeling good. Including hope, interest, joy, love, compassion, pride, amusement, and gratitude. From exercise, meeting friends, being out in nature, seeing sights, sounds, smells, tastes…
Engagement : being completely absorbed in activities. Living in the present moment and focusing entirely on the task at hand.
Relationships : being authentically connected to others. Feeling supported, loved, and/or valued by others
Meaning : purposeful existence. Belonging and/or serving something greater than ourselves
Accomplishment : a sense of accomplishment and success. Achievement, mastery, competence, attaining goals…
Services relating to the people & groups served
This is a categorisation of the wellbeing experience activity that, in some way, improves your overall Wellbeing
Entertainment : passive watching where you appreciate the activity or performance
Aesthetic : passively engrossed in the beauty or artistic qualities of an object, and not it’s functionality
Sensory : where the activity engages & focuses on one or two of your 5 senses; touch, sight, hearing, smell and taste
Learning : you actively absorb the experience. The activity enhances your knowledge or a skill
Participation : active participation in the activity, where your actions have an effect on the outcome
Volunteer : freely giving your time or knowledge to help others
Embodiment : putting an idea, thought or concept into a physical form or action
Transformation : an activity that takes you from one state (of body, mind or spirit) to a new desired state
These 8 Wellbeing Dimensions are commonly used in Wellbeing frameworks, to highlight and seperate the various aspects of our lives.
We use these 8 dimensions to categorise listings for better findability, using the filter options.
