DAY SCHEDULE
8-8.45AM JOURNALING WITH LOUISE
Louise Carron Harris is an author, shaman, storyteller and teacher
You are wiser than you realise and you know more than you believe.
Join me for this beautiful journaling session where you are invited to directly access to your own inner guidance.
“There’s a true magic held within the space that Lou offers in this journaling group. The semi conscious state I find my self in at this time of the day, coupled with the fantastically curious questions and gems of wisdom, creates the perfect conditions for some deep diving into my soul. Want to have a conversation with your very essence. Join her session and her community of beautiful souls”
9.30-11AM YOGA FOR AWAKENING THE DIVINE FEMININE WITH EMILY
Join Emily for a yoga flow to harness the divine and powerful feminine energy. The class is for women in all cycles of their life to re harness a sense of creativity and sexuality through a focus on the sacral area of the body.
We will use Pranayama, Mudra, Asana, flow, and relaxation as part of the practice.
All ages and abilities welcome
1-3PM SISTER CIRLCE WITH LYNETTE
Women have been gathering to tell each other stories since the beginning of time.
Sister Stories is a space to come together; to be seen and heard; and experience a creative, expansive circle of truth telling, healing, and transformation.
Grounded in the primal and magical traditional of storytelling, deepen your sense of connection to self and other; and experience the simple joy that comes from knowing we’re all in it together.
Lynette has been facilitating Sister Stories gatherings in Berkshire and London for just over a year. Every gathering is different, the co-creation of whoever is present. There is nothing to prepare; the evening is designed to soften and open our hearts so that whatever stories want to be told can be.
We'll come together in small, cosy gathering and will each share a story. The discussion will be led, so there's no pressure to speak, I ask that you bring openness and the desire to connect. Allow yourself to be guided in the moment and to be present to listen to those who share the circle with you.
3.30-4.30pm POETRY READING WITH DANIELLA
Audre Lorde believed that poetry was rooted in a kind of feminine power.
Together in this session we’ll explore some poems for female empowerment that you can carry with you in your personal toolkit for comfort, connection reflection and creativity.
Whether you’re a lover of poetry or an occasional reader, I hope you find some solace and strength in these poems.
5.30-6PM SHAKTI DANCING FOR JOY WITH CHLOE
I am on a journey of being and sharing joy. Joy is what we experience when we are lost in the moment of a wonderful conversation laughing with friends, when seeing a breathtaking sunset, when fully immersed in a task we are passionate about. Joy is the antidote to stress and hurt.
We cannot always be in a state of joy because without woe and worry, joy would not exist. So my work here is not to ignore the challenges that life will inevitably thrust our way, rather I believe my work is to share Joy with folks who want to receive it so that like a champagne tower it will overflow and and spread beyond just me.
I believe that you and I are connected. The confines of our skin are just a disguise and joy helps us remember we are all connected through the vast array of emotions we feel in this human experience.
So in this Shakti dance session the intention is simple. To shake up our inner champagne bottle of joy so it bursts and overflows spreading golden bubbly rays of deliciousness to all who come into contact with us. Join me for 30 mInutes of fun and I promise you will feel bountiful, beautiful and blissful xxx
8-9PM YOGA NIDRA WITH KALYANI
This systematic guided meditation practise will have a focus on feminine energy. Allowing you to turn inwards, feel whole and deeply relaxed. A chance to connect with your beautiful inner self.
This is the last class of the day so a time to unwind and get cosy. Bring blankets, cushions, light a candle, and take this final hour of rest for you.
