About the event
You are invited to mark the height of summer at Summer Solstice
Do you crave & wonder:
Where is the community?
How can we collectively move away from professionalisation of care and individualism towards kinship and compassion?
Where can we share stories in circles and ritual?
When can my Animal Body feel connection & intimacy?
Midsummer is a time for expansion, abundance and remembering our power.
This is *not* an ‘empowerment’ workshop.
This is a ceremony that celebrates you as a powerful and capable human that does not need to be fixed.
Midsummer is a time to notice the abundance that Nature offers us and gives thanks.
Tantra is a philosophical framework based on non duality. A reductionist view of Tantra would have you believe that it is solely sexual practice. This is simply not the case. In this workshop, Tantric practices will be adopted as a form of alchemy, a way of changing one state into another state. If you are new to these practices, all is well, no experience is necessary.
The event will include:
Welcome & opening ceremony
Somatic and yogic movement
Tantric breath practice
Tantric eye gazing (pair work)
Solstice meditation
Mixed sharing circle ~ this means all humans are welcome. (Sharing is encouraged but completely optional)
Closing ritual & end of the ceremony
Sian Robins-Grace"Stella led a Spring Equinox ceremony which was a beautiful space that made vulnerability possible and helped me access a feeling of connectedness and groundedness. Stella's practice is compassionate and deeply thoughtful, and her warm sense of humour reminds us all to relax and be human. Very grateful for her work." -
Alice Hagan-Brown"I had a lovely time at the spring equinox ceremony. Thank you Stella for creating a safe space for connection and intention setting. Roll on spring!" -
Tanya White"I went to Stella's spring equinox ceremony and it was truly beautiful. Everything down to the venue, space,.yoga, meditation and Stella's guidance was right on point. It was a really well thought through ceremony with space for thought, sharing (only if you wanted to), movement and rest. Stella is a fantastic teacher and sets the tone well for the whole session. What I really love about her is how authentic she is. She brings her whole self to the sessions which makes you feel relaxed. The meditation was really beautiful and the poems shared too. Came out of the session feeling revitalised and energised and slept like a baby after. Would recommend to anyone." -
