Living From Joy - Bringing Empowerment Back Into Your Life

10/25/2024

Who or what are you grieving? How has a loss recently affected you? Do you know how to be with grief - yours and others? GRIEF DANCE is a place to learn how to tend to the body, reconnect with the heart, move it through in community. You are not alone in this♥️🥰💖

Grief Dance is a sacred practice to lovingly release grief in the body. Be held, nurtured, and cradled in love, to move through the pain.

What is the sorrow that you are carrying?
Where do you feel it in your body?
How are you tending to it?

I am excited to announce that I am in the planning stages for my upcoming retreat, Liberation Beyond Loss: A Healing Retreat for Motherless Women, taking place next summer, in Santa Cruz, CA.

The cost will be around $4K for 4 nights/5 days, all-inclusive.

Does this speak to you?
Would you join me?
What would keep you from attending?

Your answers will help determine the best arrangements for the group.

Wishing everyone so much love and light on this winter Solstice🕯️✨☀️🌅.

With all the intensity in the world, I wish you quiet, peaceful, connected moments of rest, renewal, radiance and joy✨🌟🌅

May you experience hugs that last at least 30 seconds (up to 2 minutes is great!).

May you experience deep connection with animals or people, and may that love melt and nourish your heart.

May you give yourself flowers and treat yourself with as much love as you give others.

May you get out to nature, at least once, sit under a tree, with your bare feet on the Earth, and allow the energy to fill you and rebalance you.

May you see the beauty in every circumstance (not just the lack, ugliness or negativity)

May you have deep, restorative sleep and awaken to the world refreshed, with new eyes.

May you be the light in your own life that you have been for others. And may you receive the light from others that you didn’t know you needed.

May you connect to the radiant light of the sun, the stars and the moon and may you remember the beautiful bright light that you are!

Light a candle in the darkness, and you will see The power of light in action. Light many candles in the darkness, and you will see the power of coming together with our light.

Happy light filled solstice on this shortest day of the year♥️✨🌟🕯️
