The sea that holds us - BodyingLife

The sea that holds us

A mid-winter retreat call to any mother or woman who feels the longing to rest in simply being whilst being held by the presence of the sea and other women.

Moments being with the sea…entering a space of stillness, silence and receptivity, opening to deep body listening, to the felt-sense of the inner movements of our being.. the movements of the tides…arriving at the source of beingness…. becoming witness to ourselves, to each other, to our shared lived experiences…and the sea around us.

Moments of sadness, grief,loss love, joy and praise around motherhood, birth, womb loss, abortion, miscarriage or any other expression might arise and will be held in the safe nourishing container of our collective body as a group and the body of the sea.

We will engage with somatic-based meditations- connecting womb and heart, gentle movement, felt-sense dialogue, and mirror work. Women will be encouraged to find their unique creative expressions as an offering, whether trough movement,song, story-telling, ritual as offering to the Sea that holds us.
