Volunteers Offer Energy Healing to Rejuvenate Roma Street Police
WHY IT MATTERS
The program supports police mental well‑being and strengthens community ties, offering a low‑cost, volunteer‑driven approach to workplace resilience.
What happened
In a recent Queensland public‑sector column, The Sydney Morning Herald reported that volunteers are providing energy‑healing sessions at Roma Street police headquarters. The initiative, highlighted by the column’s “Public Circus” feature, aims to emotionally rejuvenate police staff.
The article also notes a review of a First Nations Health Office and mentions other community‑engagement activities such as “energy musical chairs.”
The focus on volunteer‑led support reflects a growing trend of non‑traditional wellness programs within law‑enforcement agencies.
