Wombdala Ceremony
Christa Mackinnon

We come together and connect with, honour and celebrate the Sacred Feminine, that divine, life giving, nurturing, life sustaining, intuitive, creative, instinctual aspect of ourselves. We will journey to access an archetypal representation of the sacred feminine and her medicine, which can individually range from the Earth Mother, over the Goddess in her many aspects, to more contemporary forms. But, no matter how the sacred feminine represents itself within us and to us, it carries the earth-based wisdom of sacred life within it. Once we have each found our specific, individual representation and explored her medicine, we dance and move her energy through us, and create a ceremony to celebrate the sacred feminine within and without.

Ceremony: Celebrating and Honouring the Sacred Feminine
Georgie Ashara

This workshop invites women to reconnect with the innate wisdom of their bodies, especially the womb, through an embodied dance practice that blends ancient Taoist Inner Alchemy Qi Gong with somatic movement. Womb Qi creates a sacred space where energy flows freely, dissolving tension, clearing old imprints, and awakening sensual and creative expression. The workshop closes with a Divine Mother Soundscape, weaving light language and healing tones attuned to the feminine frequency. This sacred sound journey soothes the nervous system, harmonises energy, and opens the heart to deeper connection, leaving participants feeling nourished, whole, and in tune with their essence. This offering welcomes women of all backgrounds and experience levels, providing a gentle yet powerful space to move, release, and remember the beauty of their feminine essence. Holding space at the Heart Of The Hive. Since childhood, I’ve held vivid memories of past lives and an innate connection to the unseen. I recall walking the sacred lands of Avalon as a Rose Sister, devoted to the wisdom of the Divine Feminine. Throughout my life, I’ve received spontaneous initiations—deep remembrances that awakened something ancient within me and guided me toward the path of womb wisdom and feminine healing. These experiences led me to study Tao Tantra and the sacred feminine arts, where I learned the profound practices of womb healing, jade egg cultivation, and somatic repatterning. Through these teachings, I discovered how to balance the body’s energy, awaken dormant gifts, and reclaim the deep sensual power that lives within every woman. Now, I share this wisdom through Qi Dance, Ecstatic Womb classes, and 1:1 Tao Tantra mentorships, creating spaces where women can return to their bodies, unravel old imprints, and step into their full, radiant expression. My work is about remembrance—guiding women back to their innate power, creativity, and connection to the sacred. At Medicine Woman, I hope to share these transformative practices, weaving movement, breath, and energetic activation to help women heal, embody their feminine essence, and reconnect to the ancient wisdom within.

Isabel Openshaw

A guided medicinal plant walk to meet herbal allies that grow around us. We will allow space to drop into the frequency of the plants and intuitively connect with the plants that call out to us. Of the herbs that we meet you'll learn how they can heal us, ideas for connecting and incorporating wild plant medicine into daily lives. We’ll also reflect on the changing seasons, drawing lessons from our greatest teacher - mother nature. Then we will land with a Nettle tea ceremony. Through guided meditation there is the invitation to connect with the plant's energy, feeling into the body and sensations that arise. Embody Nettle’s essence; resilience, healthy boundaries, and balance within. The circle will close with an opportunity to share a song, tuning in with what is present and waiting for us to slow down and pay attention. Note this workshop will include walking over uneven terrain and sitting on the floor (?). Please bring a cup for tea. Holding space in the Beavers Den. Isabel Openshaw, known as Iza, is a wild crafter of herbal medicines.
