At the turning point of the year — when the Sun stands highest in the sky and daylight lingers at its fullest — ancient traditions have long honoured this sacred time as a portal of transformation. The Summer Solstice is not just a celestial event, but a moment in which the Earth herself invites us to awaken, celebrate, and realign with the cycles of light and life.
As the Sun reaches its zenith, so too are we called to rise — to awaken the inner fire, to shed the old skin, and to return to a place of radiant authenticity. This workshop is a ceremonial immersion into the wisdom of the natural world and the great intelligence that animates all life. It is a time to pause, reflect, release, and renew — held in the loving embrace of the Earth herself.
Throughout these five days, we are invited into an ancient remembering — a communion with the Earth in its truest sense. Here, we do not simply observe nature, we enter into relationship with her. We walk as guests upon the sacred ground, listening, sensing, receiving. We honour the Earth as our First Mother, who nourishes and sustains us with unwavering generosity.
Through elemental rituals, soul-centred practices, and deeply embodied ceremony, we align ourselves with the rhythms of the Earth and awaken the dormant wisdom within.
At the heart of this gathering, lies a powerful rite: the Embrace of the Earth — a ceremonial burial to release the past and be reborn into new life. Rooted in ancient shamanic tradition, this ritual is both a farewell and a homecoming. In surrendering to the soil, we are received by the oldest intelligence of all — the Earth who holds no judgment, only remembrance.
This sacred act is not symbolic. It is a visceral return to Source — a moment of metamorphosis. In the stillness of the Earth, we are stripped of the unnecessary. And when we emerge, we do so not only cleansed, but renewed in our essence — soulfully aligned and truly alive.
Fire has long been humanity’s most ancient teacher — a force of illumination, transformation, and passion. In our Fire Ceremony, we come before this living element to release what no longer serves, and to awaken the inner spark that fuels our soul’s longing.
You will be invited to cast your “dark arrows” — limiting beliefs, old wounds, and worn-out patterns — into the fire, and to call forth your “light arrow” — the vision of your soul’s dream, your creative power, and your embodied potential. Through sacred ritual and intention, we offer ourselves back to Spirit — not as fragmented beings, but as whole ones.
On the eve of the Solstice, we gather for the Firewalk — a ceremonial passage across the glowing embers of possibility. Far more than an act of courage, the Firewalk is a profound initiation, a moment in which fear melts and power is reclaimed.
Those who walk the fire speak of exhilaration, clarity, and renewed purpose. It is a living metaphor, a declaration to life: “I am ready. I am willing. I am here.”
The trees, silent elders of the Earth, welcome us into their presence. With guidance, we learn to listen to the language of the forest, to enter into a reciprocal alliance with the plant realm. These sentient beings offer restoration, grounding, and a profound sense of belonging.
You’ll learn simple yet potent ways to cleanse, recharge and align your energy field in harmony with the natural world.
With the help of breath, rhythm and the element of air, we loosen the dense grip of ordinary awareness and enter into the subtle dreambody. This practice offers a sense of freedom, lightness, and joyful expansion — a blissful reminder that we are not just flesh and bone, but luminous beings in communion with Spirit.
This gathering is not about performance, expectation or disclosure. There is no requirement to share, no pressure to reveal. It is a sanctuary for the soul — a safe, sacred space to listen inward, to honour your process, and to trust your own timing.
All that is asked is your willingness — to show up, to listen, to receive, and to step forward when your soul says yes.
