Step into a sacred space where the wisdom of cacao and the power of your energetic womb space unite. Guided by Carlene of Illume Therapies, a Moon Mother®, womb healer, and cacao ceremonialist, this ceremony invites you to awaken and embody the Divine Feminine within. Through heart-opening cacao, you will soften into connection, allowing the sacred medicine to infuse your being with warmth, love, and deep feminine wisdom.
As we align with the energy of inner Spring and the Maiden archetype- a time of renewal, vitality, and fresh beginnings- you will be gently guided to connect with your energetic womb space, whether you have a physical womb or not. This is a space of intuition, creation, and deep feminine power, waiting to be honoured and embodied. Each woman will also receive a Womb Energiser healing, amplifying the flow of nourishing energy and deepening the experience.
Whether you are reconnecting with your womb for the first time or deepening your practice, this ceremony offers a profound space of transformation, alignment, and self-discovery.

Elisa will be guiding you through a facial massage routine that focuses on lymphatic drainage and points of tension that you can incorporate into your daily routine to make you glow from the inside out.
Hosted by Carina from Thirteen Spheres
As the Earth awakens and life begins to bloom, we step into the true new year of nature—a season of renewal, possibility, and fresh beginnings. Guided by Carina of Thirteen Spheres, an Ayurvedic practitioner and Women’s Circle Facilitator, this ritual invites you to align with the energy of Spring’s emergence, planting seeds of intention both in the Earth and within your own heart. Through this simple yet profound act, we honour the cyclical wisdom of nature, welcoming growth, expansion, and the fertile potential of the season ahead.
Following this, we gather in sacred sisterhood for our Sharing Circle, a space of deep listening, reflection, and support. Here, you are invited- but never required- to share your voice, your truth, your presence. Whether speaking or simply holding space for others, the act of gathering in intentional community is healing in itself. In this safe and nurturing container, we witness one another without judgment, lift each other up, and allow whatever is ready to be released to flow freely. A powerful practice that connects us deeply with ourselves and each other, this is a time to be seen, heard, and held exactly as you are.
Hosted by Carlene from Illume Therapies and Carina from Thirteen Spheres.
Settle into deep stillness as you are enveloped in the gentle, healing embrace of Reiki and sacred sound. This Reiki meditation will invite you to soften, open, and receive. As you relax into the present moment, Reiki energy will be shared distantly with the group, dissolving tension and creating space for balance, clarity, and renewal.
From this state of openness, you will be guided into a Reiki-infused Sound Bath, where the pure, celestial tones of crystal singing bowls will wash over you in waves of vibration. These frequencies work deeply on the body, mind, and energy field- helping to release stagnant energy, restore harmony, and realign you with your natural state of flow. A truly expansive and deeply restorative experience, this journey will leave you feeling lighter, clearer, and attuned to the radiant energy of Spring.
