South Devon
Journey into Embodied Yin
Align your inner cycles with natures cycles. Prepare your body, mind & emotions for their most effective Autumn surrender. Feel guided into deep Winter incubation. Allow your resting life force energy to bubble up softly from your source to offer Winter long sustenance & cellular rejuvenation. Allow your sensual animal body to express Herself gently thru uninhibited Qi Flow. Make friends with your Yin nature as we journey together towards the most Yin time of the year. – & access the deep wells of your own embodied Wisdom,
Sometimes the journey into Autumn & Winter can be challenging in a society that honours the Yang aspects of life way more than the Yin. We are encouraged to continue, year round, in a busy schedule of activity which disconnects us from the cycles of nature. Ultimately this tends to keep us up in our Yang heads & uproot us from our Yin bodies.
This Autumn day retreat will help to reconnect you to your essential nature. You’ll be guided to drop into deep intimacy with your body. You’ll be encouraged to listen to your physical & emotional bodies as they present in this season, and to gently ease them back into unified balance. You’ll nourish your essential life force energy & learn to direct this potent force to where your Winter Woman needs Her most.
My intention is that this journey will help you avoid low energy vibes in the depths of a long Winter. Instead you’ll be luxuriating sensually in your nest & purring into your more aligned alchemy of inner masculine & feminine – aka of embodied heart & womb alchemy.
You’ll embody the energy medicine tools during the day so you can continue to hone the practises at home to assist your physical & emotional wellbeing over the Winter months & beyond.
The sacred tools of taoist Womens internal alchemy will inspire us on this journey.
Specifically, you’ll:
- Fine-tune & sensitize your energy body – (everything is energy – the seen & the unseen bodies!)
- Hone your capacity to cultivate, nourish & circulate your essential life force energy for optimum self-healing & pleasure. (Including opening & circulating Qi thru the Micro Cosmic Orbit)
- Upgrade your body’s capacity to receive healing love
- Balance your emotions via healing sounds – get to know the spirits of your Yin organs & how they can facilitate emotional transformation.
- Cultivate a new relationship with your breasts & enjoy taoist self breast massage.
- Breathe into & nourish the core of your inner Water Element, your Kidneys, Adrenals, Ovaries & Bones – the very batteries of your body & source of your ancestral Qi
- Enjoy the self-love practise of Qi Self Massage, and learn specific acupressure points for healing, release, peacefulness & pleasure
- Learn (or fine tune) the potent practise of Ovarian breathing for deep nourishment, healing & blissful sensations
- Enjoy the preparatory practises for the sacred healing art of the Jade Egg – an ancient taoist practise for modern women. A Jade Egg ceremony in early December is in incubation mode. Contact me if you’d like to join. We’ll use the Jade Egg for healing emotional issues held in the pelvic area , as well as an intention-setting ritual.
- (For more details on Jade Eggs, see further down!).
