Natural Rhythms
A Healing Journey round the Celtic Wheel
Natural Rhythms is a series of 9 workshops offering a yearlong transformational healing journey round the Celtic Medicine Wheel. Each workshop has been carefully crafted for participants to deepen their connection to the natural world, to spirit and so to themselves. There are options to attend the full course or choose individual workshops that speak to you.
​
We will be working with the traditional archetypal elements of the wheel as well as the channelled energies that have specifically stepped forward to hold and guide the process. Participants will experience the magic and the healing knowledge of plant medicines & tree lore, the moon cycles, rights of passage and the divine feminine, the directions, elements and seasons, medicine music, journeying & meditation, ancient crafting and so much more.
​
Essentially, this is a spiral journey home in remembering our true nature and discovering the tools to create the balance in our lives which is so often missing. We welcome you to dream into being what has been lost, to rebuild our heart felt connection to home and to walk the footsteps of our ancestors, honouring and empowering ourselves with their forgotten wisdom.
​
Whether you are new to this work or have walked this path for some time, these workshops are for all, offering each participant the space to travel further into being and their place within this ancient land. This is an opportunity to deepen your knowledge of the wheel and receive its healing medicine.
​
With over 25 years combined experience as facilitators, Tanya and Sally welcome you into a safe space, in circle and sacred ceremony to embark on this journey with them as deeply as you wish to dream.
​
After each workshop an integration group session will be offered online the second Wednesday evening after the workshop has been held.
​
The Venue
The Bisley Yurt, Bisley. A wonderful Yurt in Surrey, a rural setting surrounded by horses and nature. A short walk from Woking train station offering toilet and hot drinks facilities. A powerful holding and nurturing space to come and sit in circle and ceremony with a log burning fire and the energy of the land.
