Honouring The Divine Feminine.
and embracing Imbolc, A Wheel of the Year Ritual.
Service Description
* Discounted workshop passes available. The divine feminine may sound mystical but it is already within us. Historically, it may have been repressed, overshadowed, or pushed back, but this energy relates to the subtle wisdom of the body, the softness, intuition, and the healing that we hold in our hearts. Understanding the divine feminine and finding ways to awaken this and bring it into our daily existence can help us all to connect with ourselves on a deeper level and to reconnect with mother earth. It can be looked at in a similar way to yin energy or Shakti. This vibration of energy can be found in the moon, the ocean, the trees, and within us. It is who we are when we are wild and untamed, it is also who we are when we are soft and still. The divine feminine is the counterpart to the divine masculine and when they are harmonised, we can live in balance, beauty, and knowledge. As our societal values lean heavily into more masculine structures, we may find ourselves out of alignment and disconnected from that feminine energy. We can shut down our sacred feminine voice, lose sight of our sensuality, and feel disempowered. Learning to dial back into that energy, can be the light we need. Through ritual and the symbolism of Imbolc: The Festival of Fire and the Celtic Goddess Brigid, this workshop is an immersive and exploratory journey into ancient yogic practices that enable us to honour, embrace and harness our feminine Shakti power (whether you are male or female). There will be differing elements that will include movement (asana), breath work (pranayama), hand and body gestures (mudras), energy locks (bandhas), chanting (mantra), sound healing and deep rest to bring you into a state of balance; creating harmony, happiness and inner peace. Suitable for all levels of ability.
