SUMMARY:Wise Women\, Sages\, Elders & Crones
DESCRIPTION:The offering:  \nThis three-evening workshop is an invitation to women who feel that they are approaching\, or have already reached\, the stage of the Elder\, Crone or Wise Woman. It is an invitation for women who want to\, in a safe circle with others\, dive deeper into the subject\, and explore the realms of their own psyche and the archetypal\, acknowledge the power and wisdom within themselves and explore with other women how they can bring them into the world that so desperately needs the female Elder. \nWhat lies beneath: \nLately I have been increasingly invited as an Elder to speak at conferences\, summits and festivals and to contribute to the subject on various courses. This inspired me to journey into\, meditate upon and research the question ‘what does it mean to be an Elder\, a Wise Woman\, a Crone in our challenging and transformational times’? I looked into some tribal concepts and examples\, explored some archetypal characters from myths and stories\, and read up on some exceptional women of our times. And whilst bringing these together contributed to my knowledge\, I needed to journeyi deep into my own psyche to find a wealth of archetypal knowing and also the blocks that stopped me from transitioning into ‘Elderhood’. \nWhat we will do: \nWe will use journeying\, visualisations\, embodiment exercises and exchange of insights\, information\, knowledge\, life experience and intuition to explore the subject and our own path as an Elder. \n  \nHow the course is structured:  \nEach evening will take place interactively online from 7pm – 9.00pm pm (UCT – UK time) and will have its own subject / intent: \n\n2.10.2024 : Connecting with archetypal and mystical female Elders\, Crones & Wise Women\n9.10.2024: Exploring the modern Elder and becoming aware of shadow aspects\n23.10.2024 Doing and Being: How to navigate our transformational journey into Elderhood & stand in our truth and power\n\n  \nFees: To participate in the workshop / course: £ 65.00 (recordings will be made available to participating women) \nThe fees include another gathering\, which we can add later in November if the group decides that this would be beneficial.

SUMMARY:Travelling Home: Soul Retrieval Training Course (Live in Glastonbury)
DESCRIPTION:This course is fully booked. Please message me via my contact page if you would like to be added to the waiting list.  \nTravelling Home: Soul Retrieval Training Course\nThis two-day non-residential\, certificated and accredited experiential training course will teach you the ancient tool of Soul Retrieval\, adjusted to contemporary practice\, including psycho-therapeutic integration approaches. \nWhat is Soul Retrieval? \nAccording to shamanic teachings\, every one of us had to split-off parts of our psyche\, mainly through traumatic and adverse circumstances in our childhood. This diminished our physical\, mental\, emotional and spiritual potential\, fragmented us and severed the connection to our deepest and authentic selves. As these split-off parts are no longer available to us\, our vital authentic powers and potentials are curtailed . \nIn ancient psycho-spiritual teachings the retrieval and re-integration of such split-off parts of ourselves is seen as the most vital step towards becoming whole. Like modern psycho-therapeutic dissociation approaches\, the practice of Soul Retrieval therefore aims to retrieve and re-integrate those parts as without them people are unable to heal and lead creative authentic lives\, which are meaningful and purposeful\, and reach their potential. \nSome split-off parts can be retrieved by ourselves\, but shamanic practitioners have always assumed that certain parts are difficult to access by the individual as they have fled to the ‘other worlds’  They therefore journey into the unconscious and parallel realms\, using deep trance states\, to retrieve lost soul parts\, utilising their vast knowledge about those realms and the teachers and helpers available. \nWhat you will learn\n\nHow retrieve parts for yourself and others\nHow to work in a healing way with these parts during the Soul Retrieval journey\nHow you can apply shamanic and contemporary psycho-therapeutic integration methods to assist the integration of the retrieved parts physically\, mentally and emotionally. \nHow can integrate Soul Retrieval within your therapeutic or healing practice\, your shamanic work or just utilise it for yourself\n\nCourse content\n\nThe shamanic concept of Soul Loss\nThe contemporary concept of dissociation \nShamanic Worlds: lower- upper and middle worlds\nShamanic helpers for Soul Retrieval: power animals & spirit guides\nJourneying to retrieve split-off parts \nRetrieving split-off parts for your clients or others \nHow to work with split-off parts during the journey\nGrounding and Integrating of the retrieved soul parts: shamanic and modern therapeutic concepts\n\n\n  \nEligible: This is an advanced training course for women with experience in shamanic journeying \n\nFees & Venue  \nFull Fees: 205.00  \nThe course fees include a certificate and a non-refundable deposit of £ 50.00 unless the course is cancelled \nParticipants will receive an email with joining instructions and further information before the course commences. \nVenue: Glastonbury Goddess Temple\, Avalon Room \n\nSchedule\nThe course is non-residential. \nSaturday 26th October 2024\,  10am – 6pm \nSunday 27th October 2024\, 10am – 4pm
