Wise Woman Stillness Speaks

June 26–28, 2026 — with Sanjula & Abhi
Threshold – Earth – Rebirth
(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)

Here the threshold is crossed. This weekend awakens Earth: grounding, boundaries, body truth, stability, and the first shedding of the old identity. Through ceremony, emotional release, ancestral clearing, shadow work and embodied boundaries, we enter the underworld of the Forbidden Path — the place where women remember who they are beneath conditioning.

We address shame, guilt, unprocessed rage, silence, and the inherited stories from mothers, grandmothers and patriarchal lineage. This is where you meet the woman you were before you were shaped: instinctive, earthy, honest, clear. You will be held through elemental ritual, body-based healing, earth grounding, and practices that prepare your system to hold more life force.

During this workshop we will…

• Walk a full threshold ritual of release

• Work with earthing practices for grounding & boundaries

• Explore ancestral shame, guilt & suppression

• Activate emotional expression & somatic truth

Untamed – Sensual – Sacred

(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)

There is a woman within you who has never stopped longing to be fully alive.

She is sensual and instinctive, creative, wild. She knows that pleasure is not a luxury, but a pathway back to aliveness, and that your body is not something to overcome, but something to trust.

This weekend is an invitation to return to her.

Together we will journey with the elements of Water and Fire.

Water will guide us into feeling, flow, desire, softness, sensuality and surrender….helping us melt what has become guarded or numb within us.

Fire will guide us into passion, courage, expression, instinct and creative power….helping us awaken the spark of aliveness, desire and embodied freedom.

Through movement, ritual, dance, somatic practices and womb connection, you’ll be invited to reconnect with the natural sensual intelligence of your body and remember what it feels like to truly inhabit yourself.

We’ll explore body painting as a ritual of reverence and reclamation, honouring the body as sacred, expressive and deeply our own.

There will be the option to paint onto naked skin, using colour, symbol and intention as a way to meet the body with tenderness, curiosity and celebration. Everything is an invitation, nothing is expected, and you remain fully in choice throughout.

We will meet the archetypal energies of Lilith, Kali, the serpent woman and the ecstatic dancer. Experiencing these energies not as myths, but as living expressions of feminine life force, erotic innocence, creativity, freedom and embodied power.

This workshop is about reclaiming the part of you that delights in being alive, that can receive pleasure without guilt and feels beautiful from the inside out. The part that longs to move, breathe, soften and belong fully to herself.

Held in the beauty of Gaia Yurt at Leela, surrounded by nature, you'll be supported by the elements, by sisterhood, and by a carefully held container where your body can safely unfurl.

During this weekend we will:

• Awaken your sensual body through movement, breath, touch, dance and embodied practice.

• Reconnect with desire, not as something to chase, but as a compass pointing you towards what brings you alive.

• Explore pleasure as a healing force that nourishes your nervous system and reconnects you with yourself.

• Honour the body through ritual and body painting, with the option of working on naked skin if you choose.

• Meet Lilith, Kali and the serpent woman as guides into feminine freedom, instinct and embodied wisdom.

• Soften into receiving, allowing yourself to experience more beauty, nourishment and aliveness.

• Be seen in your own sensuality by other women, and discover that you can be witnessed there and still held, in a space of celebration and sisterhood.

• Leave feeling more connected to your body, your sensuality and your authentic feminine expression.

• Develop a deeper trust in your body's wisdom and natural instincts.

• Begin to free yourself from layers of shame that have dulled your aliveness or disconnected you from your desire.

Authority – Fire – Truth

This is the Fire weekend — boundaries, clarity, leadership, voice, inner authority. After entering your wildness, we now refine it. Sovereign Woman stands tall in her truth, speaks clearly, and reclaims the power she once handed over to others. Here we work with unprocessed rage, control, empowerment, embodied boundaries, communication and leadership.

This is leadership not as performance, but as presence. You will learn to stand on your own feet, reclaim your ability to take space, and speak with precision and integrity. Through fire ritual, voice work, power reclamation, and tree-rooted embodiment, we awaken the inner queen and leader.

During this workshop we will…

• Practice embodied boundaries & clear communication

• Reclaim unprocessed rage in healthy expression

• Work with Fire: desire, leadership & sovereignty

• Strengthen self-regulation without external reliance

• Explore voice, visibility & the sacred “no”

• Unwind patterns of shrinking or over-boundarying

• Reclaim inner leadership & embodied authority

• Use nature (trees, earth) as allies for empowerment

Stillness – Insight – Discernment

(Standalone – 2 nights · £330)

This is the Air & Ether weekend — intuition, clarity, ancestral listening, and deep stillness. After the emotional, sensual and fiery territories, we now enter the quiet that reveals everything. This workshop includes silence, meditation, council work , breath, intuition activation, shadow integration, night-time nature rituals, blindfolded visioning, earth-burial practices, and listening to the land.

This is where the feminine elder comes online — the woman who sees truth without fear, speaks only what is essential, and trusts her inner knowing completely. Here we integrate the journey so far and begin to sense what our medicine might be.

During this workshop we will…

• Drop into deep stillness and intuitive states

• Engage in blindfolded vision quests and listening rituals

• Work with night nature practices & sweat lodge (if permitted)

• Explore Air: voice, discernment, creativity

• Integrate shadow and wisdom with care

• Receive ancestral insight & heal conditioning

• Recalibrate the nervous system toward spaciousness

• Sit in stillness circles & elder council

Radiance – Offering – Purity
(2 nights · £330 EB)

The final workshop completes the Forbidden Path — the return to Eden as a woman who now chooses the apple consciously. Gifted Woman is where your medicine becomes visible. This is the weekend of radiance, purity, elegance, sensual innocence, and sacred offering. Through creativity, ritual, expression, ancestral honouring, nature listening, and visibility practices, you will discover the gifts you’ve hidden — and the courage to share them.

We explore pleasure as purity, visibility without shame, embodied offering, and the subtle feminine power that blesses by simply being. This is not about becoming a healer — but about recognising how you naturally heal, inspire, and uplift when you stop hiding.

During this workshop we will…

• Discover your unique medicine & feminine gifts

• Explore visibility, expression & embodied radiance

• Engage in pleasure, purity & sensual innocence rituals

• Work with creativity, voice & movement

• Listen to nature for guidance on your offering

• Reclaim gifts hidden by shame or conditioning

• Participate in a completion ceremony

• Return to the Garden as the woman you’ve become
