Eternal Mother

The Eternal Mother is a weekend immersion created to support women on the spectrum of the motherhood experience from preconception to parenting to listen, tend & inspire all parts of our experience, & be acknowledged, validated, witnessed & celebrated for all aspects of yourself as you embrace the journey of motherhood within. 

This is an invitation to bring awareness to what shapes you as a woman & a mother to highlight the parts of you that are longing for more compassion, deep care, development, support, maturation, presence, attention & space.

The Eternal Mother is an opportunity to increase your trust in your own inner compass & intuition, bring gentle nurturance to all aspects of your being & to take responsibility for your truth being honoured & respected.

Descend through the portals of your body through guided ritual, embodiment, & archetypal medicine; access the wisdom you already have in your bones, blood & consciousness; & open your emotional & energetic bodies through carefully curated processes to assist you identifying what you need most & being able to give that to yourself.

You have been called to The Eternal Mother because you yearn for a rich, magical & experience of yourself, your children & your life as a mother.

You are ready to move beyond simply the lessons & support of the mainstream system, & willing to lean into deeper work than meditative birth classes.

You long to create the community & village you need by opening to a like-minded sisterhood; & you understand the importance of continuing to unravel the threads of what was transmitted when you were child & weave your own reparenting, repatterning an entire internal system to birth a new potential for your family & the world. 

Motherhood is a powerful transformative process; an initiation that begins at preconception, shifting & deepening as you move through all the stages of becoming & being a mother.

Motherhood is sacred rite of passage where you must meet every transition of your body, mind, heart & spirit as you journey through each descent & evolution; a journey unlike any other as it challenges the core of your identity & seeks to increase your capacity for pleasure & bliss.

Despite what the culture of modernisation & sterilisation of the mother's journey would have you believe, motherhood is a deeply spiritual undertaking.

As we birth our lineage we uncover so many layers within ourselves - the imprints we received from our parents, how we were raised, our dreams & desires, our wounds & traumas, our values & triggers.

Motherhood requires us to confront how we -

* hold the most vulnerable

* advocate for what's most important

* stand in our truth, power & knowing

* choose differently than what we were shown to own our own legacy

* love, communicate, receive, embrace our sensual nature, trust, open our body, & create space for our emotions to be recognised & validated.

As mother's we must see our care & advocacy for ourselves as the paramount priority as it ripples through the conscious & subtle unconscious messages & lessons we pass on to our children.

We must give ourselves the permission we yearn for, the nourishment we fundamentally require, the sustenance that we need & desire in order to rise above the assumption that motherhood is full of depletion, exhaustion & sacrifice.

We must respect & listen to our own hearts & bodies, our emotions & needs, our values & beliefs, our wounds & traumas; for the relationships to these important parts of our make up will influence how we are able to navigate womanhood and parenthood.

This comes from the willingness to allow ourselves to be the Mystic, Calm, Dark, Strong, Centred, Wild, Playful, Soft, Messy, Erotic, Queen mother in wholeness & fullness, leaving no part of you behind - integrating all within the human, animal, spirit; embracing all parts of our true essence & expression.

This is the path of the mother - one not of separation, isolation & fragmentation as we are led to believe; but one of connection, acceptance & inclusion. And it starts with how we meet & treat ourselves first.
