Building Resilience & Releasing Trauma With Nature - Wednesday 11th December 2019 West Cork

Come and walk, talk and listen to nature as April leads you on an outside afternoon in the forest. Too much of our lives as women has been spent inside, this has got to be the biggest fundamental change to make in your life this coming year; because going outside will have the most impact.

What will shift in me today, if I spend an hour outside? Perhaps those answers I have been seeking are indeed out there! In the garden and the forest, the land has a story to tell. We can gather herbs to make tea or syrups and discuss ancient healing ceremony and rituals.

During this class you will identify some local plants and trees, run through puddles, dig in the ground, plant seeds and listen to the earth using your intuition. Your learning outcome will be more peace and contentment, aligning with your purpose and boosting your immune system. How am I going to ever be who I am meant to be, if I don’t re-discover my roots?

I no longer want to be the lady of the house, I want to be the wild thing in the forest…..

1pm until 3pm - hot refreshments, soup & snacks included. Herbal workbook available.....

The weather will be as it needs to be – dress accordingly. Bring wellies, rain gear and warm socks.

I Am She Who Creates

If you’re just starting out or you’ve been marching to the music in your own soul for many years, or if you feel completely lost and disconnected and longing to discover who you really are, your mission is waiting for you to claim it.  If you are really ready to take a leap of faith, to not let anyone stand in your way and to only trust in the inner guiding voice that connects you to all of life and creation, you will be Universally supported in finding your mission and developing your purpose.
