Feminine
rising:
NEW DATES COMING SOON
This empowering journey will include practical and theoretical workshops, ceremonies, rituals, experiences and excursions, and a daily yoga practice - through which we will take a deep dive into learning about herbalism, the moon cycle and feminine alchemy.
What is Feminine Rising?
‘Feminine Rising’ is a soul-stirring journey of self-discovery and self-care deep in the heart of the Mayan Jungle.
It is an opportunity to let go of that which is ready to fall away by exploring and embodying your authentic and infinite essence.
What will I experience?
Decode and transmute your limiting beliefs and rediscover the magic within you.
Reconnect with your feminine lineage during deep womb healing.
Learn to open your heart and realign your emotional, mental and physical body.
How will I achieve this?
During a 4 night, 5 day immersion - you will be held by the healing Mayan Jungle and its foods and medicine as you explore your inner and outer Worlds.
Maja and Amandine will guide you as you participate in a number of healing modalities to help you on this journey of transformation.
You will also learn tools and techniques you can take with you long after the retreat is over. In this way you will deepen your understanding of the feminine alchemy and your synchronicity with the moon's rhythms, nurturing your mind, body and spirit.
The Four Elements
Learn about the framework of the Mexican cosmovision and the wisdom of the 4 elements and apply this to live in harmony with nature's cycles.
Learn to honor the four elements within and without -so that everyday life can serve as a deepening exploration of your own consciousness.
Temezcal & Healing Circles
Experience the ancient ritual of the Temazcal purification ceremony (sweat-lodge).
Delve into profound womb healing with a meditative Yoni steam.
Engage in a drum journey and writing workshop to ignite your creative fire.

Ceremonies
Expand your connection to yourself and all around you through heart-opening ceremonies.
De-armour your heart with a sacred cacao ceremony.
Explore the crystalline waters of the Mayan Riviera on excursions that will leave you awe and utterly blissed out.

We greatly look forward to rising together in this celebration of the Feminine!
