This workshop is about healing and new growth. About surrender of what no longer serves, releasing blocked energy from the nervous system and rebalancing the body and soul for a bright and peaceful journey into spring. We will draw upon the wisdom and strength of the Goddess Brigid. A goddess of healing, fertility, poetry, the waterways, an overseer of the alchemical arts & Matron Saint of Ireland.
The workshop will include guided vocal and physical warm ups, movement medicine, dance, song, ritual, poetry and a lamenting ceremony (inspired by the ancient tradition of keening) in which we will use our voices to express grief in a safe and sacred circle. There will be plenty of space for journaling, time to share and reflect in confidence with a circle of supportive souls and techniques taught to calm the nervous system. There will also be a tea break with teas and wholesome snacks provided to enjoy together.
It is a beautiful opportunity to give VOICE to something that wishes to be heard or released; To let go of fear, doubt, trauma, thoughts that may stop you from being your highest self. It is not for the fainthearted, but for those wishing to step bolding into a bright future of their own creation. We will warm up the body and voice in gentle and fun ways to be able to use them throughout the workshop. This is an invitation to release any blocked energy, especially in your throat and heart chakras.
