November is a potent month to make space for the Soul, dive into the depths of our being and begin a process of emotional composting, this is an alchemy process in which you transform all your scraps, what does not nurture you any longer into new compost for life. This is not an easy process, but it is what the month of November and the archetypal energy of Scorpio comes to teach us. This is the journey of Innana and Persephone, the journey of the tree through auumn into winter. This day retreat will offer you a sacred space to come together and dive into your quiet self and connect through the heart to the essence that you are, which rests in the body.Through embodied restorative practices we will begin to prepare our bodies for a somatic experience that will take us into our dark cave, to a deepening of ourselves, to the place where our creativity and power lies and from where we can reclaim the lost parts of ourselves that have been buried there.
We will engage in:
conscious movement
vibrational singing with a shruti box, to raise our energy field and feel into our inner body
somatic experiencing exploring the felt sense of our body of water
performance ritual to honour our lineage and who we are right now, in our light and our shadow.
As Starhawk says: “Without negating the light, we reclaim the dark: the fertile earth where the hidden seed lies unfolding, the unseen power that rises within us. We reclaim the lost parts of ourselves we have shoved down into the dark. Instead of enlightenment, we begin to speak of deepening, of getting down instead of getting high.”�
This will be an intimate workshop for a maximum number of 10 people.
Testimonial from a regular participant:
"Coming together this soul work connects in a deep place where breath and voice can release and sing out that which has been held in the body awaiting expression. Through movement, stillness, tracking bodily sensations we have transcended thinking and reconnected with the wisdom of the body. Gentle guided meditation and sounding has opened up that channel within, to bring us to our unique intuition. What joy to sing my heart out! — Angela.
Facilitated by Marianne Marcote, Dramatherapist, Creative Supervisor, Performer and specialist in somatic movement and transpersonal therapy.
