Rembering the Handless Maiden retreat with Sarah Mooney

You are welcome to come and explore myth with me deep in the heart of Pembrokeshire, for an exploration of myth and ritual for personal transformation and deep self care.

The Penquoit Centre is one of my favourite places to work in this way. The diversity of nature, proximity to the sea and sacred well make it profound and magical.

I ran a similar retreat at The Chalice Well Gardens last year and felt inspired to re-visit the story here, a place that is more wild but has the same sacred beauty.

“"Through intuitive and skillful facilitation, powerful storytelling and authentic, rooted ceremony, Sarah was able to let me to go deep. It amazes me how much that could be moved, released and transformed during a single weekend. I left feeling more nourished, seen and supported than I've done in a long time and moreover, the retreat put me back in contact with my self, my potential and my path. I will hold this time in my heart, full of gratitude, for a long time to come." ”

Remembering the Handless Maiden Retreat at The Chalice Well, Glastonbury, UK

Join us at the Chalice Well Gardens, deep in the heart of Glastonbury, for an exploration of myth and ritual for personal transformation and deep self care.

We will take stories of birth, adventure, agency transformation and belonging for this years retreat. As we gather and create together through myth and ritual we will loosen places within is us that are trapped. We take these places to the waters of Avalon and the magic of the Chalice Well Gardens as others have been doing for centuries.

“Sarah is an amazing facilitator and bard. I took the year long Women Who Run With The Wolves course with Sarah and from the very first session I was completely moved and hooked. Sarah has a natural gift for holding an authentic and raw space for soul work. She has a way of celebrating the light and comfortably inviting curiosity into the dark. I love her and I love her work - Would recommend to any women willing to peer inside!”

Women Who Run With The Wolves

Storytelling, Mending, Ritual

A seven-month online course exploring stories from the book Women Who Run With The Wolves through storytelling, ritual, writing, crafting and sharing.

A few years ago, I trained in Colorado with Clarissa Pinkhola Estes (Dr E) author of Women who Run with the Wolves; where I was educated, encouraged and inspired to work with story in deeper ways.

Each year I will hold an online zoom circle. A group of magnificent women, gathering together to mine the stories from Dr E’s book Women Who Run with The Wolves; to remind us of ancient wisdom and the transformative magic of myth, in a deep, safe, nourishing space.

 

Please get in touch if you would like to join us.

Each of the seven sessions runs monthly on Sundays from 2pm until 7pm,

The course costs £560 (£80 per session) a £100 deposit secures you a place.

50% payment is required one week before the first session with the additional payment by the end of the year.
