Dear one, I invite you to join me on a ritual, soul expedition, peeling away the layers of societal roles to connect deeper with the essence of who you truly are. In a world where we often define ourselves through titles, responsibilities, and expectations, it's easy to lose sight of our authentic selves. Some of us have a practice of deepening our connection to self each day, to others it might sound more novel. Wherever you are on this path, you're welcome on this journey. I believe it's an ongoing lifelong path where our relationship to ourselves can become deeper and deeper.As the moon wanes and the darkness envelops us, we find alignment with the natural cycles of introspection and renewal.
Step into the mystical realm of ancient Mesopotamian mythology as we embark on a transformative workshop inspired by the legendary tale of Inanna's descent to the underworld. In this sacred gathering, you are invited to explore the depths of your being and embark on a journey of shedding layers of yourself, just as Inanna did on her mythic quest for wisdom and renewal.
The journey will involve a series of storytelling, contemplative practices, symbolic enactments inspired by the archetypal journey of Inanna.
We'll begin this journey with a combination of cacao, movement, and breath. Cacao, the ancient plant medicine of the heart, will assist in opening the gates of this inner voyage, facilitating a deeper connection with ourselves and others in the circle. Movement and breath will gently guide us into a state of presence, shedding the external distractions that often veil our innermost truths.
Our journey will unfold with the sharing of Inanna's myth, leading into reflective journaling, exploring the parallels between Inanna's journey and our own, inviting insights to illuminate our path.
As we transition into the next phase, we will embody the ritual inspired by Inanna's descent. Through sacred ceremony, we will honour the alchemy of transformation, surrendering to the mystery of rebirth.
Date: Saturday Feb 8th 2025
Time: 10:30am - 4:30pm

What to bring:
- A curious mind, an open heart, a pen and paper, 7 items that belong to you and represent the essence of who you are which you will use for the ritual (you will take them home with you after). These items will be used for you to ceremonially shed the layers of societal roles that define you to get to the essence of who you are (can be an item symobolising your work that represent you as a professional, a picture of you and your friends that represent you as a friend, a ring if you are married that represents you in the world as a spouse, a picture of you and your kids represent you as a parent if you are one...)
