Alchemy Women Rising
Remembering heart, intuition and creative power
with Andrea Hartley and Paula Arranz
Tantra - Aerial Yoga - Women Circles - Breathwork - Meditation - Ecstatic Dance - Hula Hoop Flow
Have you heard the voice deep within ? Do you feel there is something you are missing? Is your Heart craving for Love? How many dreams and projects do you want to manifest and don´t know how? Do you feel your Creativity stack? When was the last time that you played? Can you feel the voice and strength of your ancestors? Your Alchemy Woman is calling within, she wants to be free and serve the world with the full expression of herself. Every woman has so much to create and to offer, we just need to unleash our creative power, intuition and connect with our heart to harness the most powerful alchemy within ourselves: Love.
Our Feminine Energy has been repressed and oppressed for a long time, and now is the moment for the feminine rising, to balance the energy of the world, our societies, our closest circles… It is the moment to awake and to step into our power and that is always easier and more powerful when we do it together. So, this retreat is a call to the women who want to awaken, explore their full potential, hold hands and walk together to unleash our true selves, to witness and be part of our sister’s blooming and embody our own power.
During the retreat we will explore our creative process and cycle, going through each of the phases, the different archetypes and aspects of our life as women, different phases of our feminine cycle, recognizing our strengths, our hidden powers, our uniqueness and magic.
We will awaken, feel and work with our sexual energy, connecting it with our Heart and Consciousness for our own healing and manifestation process.
We will explore our shadows, our limiting beliefs that are holding us back, and will connect with our inner wisdom and intuition to discern what we need and is best for us. Because only each of us knows what’s best, we just need to remember and recover the trust in ourselves to be our own guidance in our journey.
We will connect with our ancestors, to heal and cut cords that are a weight in our journey to manifest and live the life we deserve, and connect with the strength and flux of life that we received from them. We will plant the seeds that we want to manifest in our life based on our true needs.
We will play, connect with our inner child, our curiosity and sense of exploration. We will go through our own Initiation and Rite of Passage into womanhood and feminine wisdom. We will remember our true nature.
We will connect, build and heal our self esteem and confidence in ourselves. We will connect with our capacity to love, be loved, to nurture and be nurtured. We will remember how to be mothers to ourselves and how to feed and nurture ourselves and our projects and creations. We will practice self love, compassion, forgiveness, and self validation.
It is gonna be a deep journey within, supporting and holding each other to give birth to ourselves once again, to fill up ourselves with love and life, connecting with pleasure, joy and play! We will walk this journey together through different proposals that are just that: proposals. We believe and trust in the wisdom within each of us, and the sovereignty to decide what feels right for you in every moment. During 6 days and 5 nights we will have women’s circles, different workshops, ecstatic dance, visualisations, meditations, breath work, Ovarian Breathing Feminine Alchemy System, tantra practices, aerial yoga, rituals, art therapy, uterine memories healing and much more.
