GARDEN OF BEING: CREATE
A quarterly space to honour the current season you’re in, each one with the support of the season present in Nature.
Spring is here!
On Friday 1st May, on the eve of the Flower Full Moon, we will gather to celebrate her apparent arrival — her awakened state of being and movement in Nature — which includes you!
In Spring the natural world listens and leans into the call to create from Consciousness itself. Garden of Being: Create invites you into a circle space that helps you practise listening and responding to this very same call to creation. You will be guided into softening and opening your body through breath, yoga, somatic movement, and guided & intuitive drawing / painting.
As human beings, we are in constant co-creation with life. Our perception of reality is a reflection of our own state of being. This means that sometimes creating feels organic and easy, and sometimes it requires a little more effort. Either way, when we are awake in our bodyminds, we are able to co-create with more clarity, receiving the lessons, fruits, infinite abundance and beauty life has to offer.
Come sit with us in the garden of being, and awaken to your wisdom that already exists within you. Connect to yourself and other souls over tea & sweet treats. Nature grows and works together as an ecosystem — and thus showing up for ourselves in community is key to our growth too.
Awaken your body vessel & let Life create itself through you.

MOTHER’S BLESSINGS
(with Nicola)
Also known as a “Blessingway”, this is a sacred ceremony in honour of the expecting mother’s journey through pregnancy and her rite of passage from maiden-mother, or mother-mother (if not her first time pregnant). It is inspired by a tradition originating in the Navajo Native American tribe, where the intentions are to invoke positive blessings unto the mother-to-be, as well as to intentionally reduce struggles for the rest of pregnancy, the birth, and postpartum period.
The ceremony can include a variety of practices, rituals and activities, such as meditation, introspection, embodied movement & breath, dancing, fear releasing, fire ceremony, red thread ritual, affirmation display making, letter writing, belly painting, art making, intentional beading, story sharing, singing and more. It is undoubtedly a beautiful space for energy to flow and for the mother to prepare emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually, for the birth, postpartum, and her new chapter of Motherhood.

If you’re interested but need someone to help facilitate the Blessing, Nicola is your person. Every detail will be covered - whether that’s a perfectly curated playlist for background music, to cleansing the space energetically, to flowers and candles to bring in the magic, to making sure the mama never feels uncomfortable (and a whole lot more!).
Nicola is a mother of two herself, so is very much in tune with the energetics of both the portal of birth and Motherhood. She harnesses her inner knowing based on her personal experiences for holding intentional and supportive space for the mother-to-be. Being made to feel held, safe, loved and seen is what it’s all about.
Nicola is based in Essex, but not limited to hosting Mother’s Blessings in this area only.
Should you be interested, Nicola will help you figure out what exactly you’d like to include in the ceremony based on the intentions and what practices/rituals resonate with you, creating a bespoke ceremony to match you perfectly.
Prices also range depending on what’s included and if venue hire is required (they can also be held in the comfort of your home). The approximate range is £300-£400.
