Oh! This spring has filled me up with so much inspiration and motivation ~ I have been buzzing like a bumble bee, creating new workshop curriculums, deigning new retreats, getting my graphic design hat on and working to update my website and marketing materials, and lots of travel, travel, travel!
I just got back from facilitating a Consent, Communication, and Connection workshop at the Mountain Music Festival in West Virginia (see pics below) and have been asked to come back again next year with a whole team of "Consent Comrades" to create a 24/7 Cuddle Lounge space in the festival grounds where people can come for safe cuddle space, on-going discussions about consent and intimacy, Authentic Relating exercises, mindfulness meditations and yoga!
Authentic Relating Game nights in Boone got off to a great start in February ~ we had 30 people show up at our house for the first one! ~ and have been happening monthly since then. We are growing a beautiful community of folks who want to share deeply authentic interactions, enhance their conscious communication skills, and show up with honesty, integrity, and vulnerability. In these ways we can all heal, witness, share, and grow together!
I am super excited to be attending Compassion Camp at the end of this month ~ an NCV intensive retreat held at Earth Haven Ecovillage in Black Mountain, NC. I'm sure I'm going to come back from that with lots of juicy new experiences and tools to share with you!!!
Now... what I'm REALLY excited to tell you about...
A lot of my clients come to me from other cities, because there is no one offering these opportunities for healing in their own community. This is a challenge for some because of the travel distance and logistics. Recently, I've had several long-distance clients express that their desire is to do multiple healing sessions with me, but they feel daunted by those logistical factors. So.... I came up with a solution! And I am SO excited about it!
I am now offering Personalized Intensive Retreats ~ a custom-designed ritual retreat offering one-on-one activities, sessions, and services. Personal intensives are an individualized immersive experience that will meet you where you are at and guide you towards where you want to be.
weekend workshop that is designed especially for you, to incorporate multiple sessions and modalities over a period of time that allows for deep work, process time, and integration, in a beautiful retreat location that enables you to fully relax and embrace the experiences without any logistical worries.
