Anapana Ridge

Anapana Ridge is situated in the beautiful Perth Hills in Lesmurdie, my old stomping ground! Here you can surrender and fully immerse yourself in the beauty and energy that surrounds. The local area is sacred to the original owners of the land, the 'Noongar' people, who have lived in the south-west of Western Australia for more than 45,000 years. At Anapana, we have a deep respect for Mother Nature and the land that we reside upon. The word “anapana” in Sanskrit means the first step in the practice of Vipassana meditation - it means observation of natural, normal respiration as it comes in and as it goes out - a technique that is known to develop concentration of mind. A beautiful place to practice the medicine that is the breath. This is a place where you can retreat and switch off from the crazy world where uncomplicated living has somehow been forgotten. Here you can breathe and remember what your body, mind and soul really need, to feel whole once again. Enjoy air conditioned rooms, a beautiful grass area for outdoor activities, a swimming pool and spa and beautiful overhanging trees shading the house, join the resident pet peacock in this perfect place to relax and unwind during an Australian Summer. At Anapana, accommodation is all within the beautiful homestead including multiple shared lounge areas and bathrooms. Rooms comprise of queen beds, twin singles and multi bed combinations.
