BELINDA O’DEA.

Belinda O'Dea, the Founder and Owner of Sacred Women’s Journeys, is an Australian Yoga and Meditation Teacher, an expert Women’s Circle Facilitator, an International Women’s Retreat Leader, and a Yoga Teacher Trainer. Currently, she is also a Trainee Gestalt Therapist, further enriching her ability to support women on their individual journeys.

Belinda's main interest lies in nurturing women who wish to grow spiritually and learn to live their Yoga both on and off the mat, sharing her gentle wisdom and loving nature while embodying the Path of Classical Tantra.

This passion inspired her to create Sacred Women’s Journeys, born from a desire to share the ‘Jewels of Transformation’ that have positively transformed her life from the inside out.

Sacred Women’s Journeys invites you to return home to yourself through accessible and practical pearls of ancient wisdom and present-moment awareness. These teachings empower you to build confidence and rediscover your Feminine Essence. As you awaken to the 'Gifts of Womanhood,' you will learn to navigate the many transitions that come with being a woman with confidence and grace.

As an eternal student on the Path of Self-Awareness, Belinda seeks to impart embodied knowledge that celebrates Women’s Spirituality by combining the principles of Classical Tantra with the Women’s Mysteries and the present-focused, relational approach of Gestalt Therapy. Consequently, all of her work with women is now inspired by and informed by the Gestalt Therapy approach, including the 1:1 therapy sessions she now offers as a Trainee Psychotherapist.

Belinda discovered Yoga over 25 years ago and has been teaching and sharing this Ancient Wisdom Tradition since 2012. She has guided Women’s Retreats internationally since 2014 and has been teaching other women how to facilitate Sacred Women’s Circles since 2022. At the beginning of 2024, she became a Yoga Teacher Trainer and is currently undergoing a four-year intensive training program as a Gestalt Therapist, which she will complete in late 2026.

Belinda holds extensive Yoga Teacher Training Certifications in Hatha, Mantra, Tantra, Vinyasa, and Yin Yoga, focusing on sharing the Path of Tantra through Restorative Yoga, Yin Yoga, Mantra Meditation, Yoga Nidra Guided Relaxation, and Sacred Women’s Circles. Each of these modalities encourages women to slow down, embrace stillness, and cultivate personal insight and intuition, ultimately guiding them toward greater awareness and a heart-centered life.

A citizen of the world, Belinda left home at the tender age of 16 to pursue a scholarship in Japanese Language and Culture. She returned to Japan for her first year of University before going on to earn a First-Class Honours Degree in Fashion Design (Merchandising Stream) from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. Belinda’s fashion career highlights include serving as Head Designer for Spencer and Rutherford, Ipa-Nima (Vietnam), and Alannah Hill.

For over 30 years, Belinda has embarked on a journey of self-discovery, during which she has lived and travelled extensively throughout Asia, as well as in Europe and South America. This transformative journey has shifted her identity from a Fashionista to a Yogini—or, as her Guru likes to say, from 'hedonist to moralist!

If you are a woman who is looking for support on your journey toward personal growth and transformation, Sacred Women’s Journeys will empower you to develop Self-Awareness, reconnect with your Feminine Wisdom, and compassionately embrace your Authentic Self.
