I for one know what it is like to be thrown out of a garden, we all have, not by choice but by force, born into displacement or thrown out of our natural way of being into a barren land. A place of disconnection and abandonment.

It’s time to RETURN to the GARDEN - it’s time to return to our natural state of being, our bliss, our creaturely knowing, our wild grace and deep resonance with the land and all things.

There is no one to blame - there is only the RETURN. With our hearts, our feet and our sound - we reclaim who we are and our natural birthright to BE.

Thresholds to Awakening

Embodiment practices for difficult times

DAY RETREAT
14 October 10-5pm

We go beyond words into the actual felt-sense of faith. How do we access love during difficult times? What happens when we reach the “point of failure” in our lives? Why is our spiritual growth shaped more by the places we “close” than the places we “open?” Why is an embodiment practice important when we are going through challenge? Wilhemeena invites us to dive into the belly of these questions and into a embodied exploration of who we really are. We will explore gentle embodiment practices, meditation, soft sounding, guided dharma talks, and reflection. A deep and nourishing time together.
