Southside Spiritual was founded in 2022. The name was birthed on the premise that our first community was launched on the beaches (45 minutes) south of Melbourne, and obviously it being a community to attract 'spiritual' people.
What is spirituality though?
To us, spirituality is a journey of evolution. This evolution may occur in many forms including emotional, mental & even physical.
That's right, even if you go to the gym, you are evolving, to us that's spiritual.
We also believe being spiritual is about becoming a better version of yourself for the greater good, for the new world.
Southside Spiritual was founded by Thomas (Tommy) Zaradic, a 23 year old ex-construction worker. At the time, a young kid who had suffered a workplace injury. With adding the isolation of C*vid to the mix, Tommy had no choice but to face the emotions he tried so hard to run away from. Repressed emotions that were manifesting in the physical realm as anxiety & depression.
Tommy suffered intense anxiety attacks where he would hide himself in stairwells or toilets on construction sites in the hope to not allow anyone to see him like this. Eventually he discovered breathing practices that could get him out of his anxiety attacks. Eventually Tommy thought, "If breathing can help me get out of these anxiety attacks, there must be a way to alter your breathing in order to never get to an anxiety attack in the first place that doesn't require relying on medication for the rest of my life".
After witnessing multiple family members & friends medicated by the western medical system, Tommy thought there must be a different way, a better way, he thought there had to be an alternative.
With the combination of changing his life so immensely utilising the breath, as well as his workplace injury preventing him from continuing his career, he founded Southside Spiritual where he would help others in the same way, a way that put the power back in people's hands by connecting them with the one thing they have had with them all along but never been taught how to use for their benefit.
