Feminine Embodiment Retreats with Whole Woman

Blossoming

True Beauty Blossoms in Authenticity

at White Waltham Parish Hall, near Maidenhead
with Emily Whitehead of Pure Yoga

Saturday 16 May 11am-5pm

Investment £125 including a nourishing lunch

As women we are intimately connected to the cycles of our own bodies, our planet Earth, the Moon, & Venus, representing our Creative Feminine, but do we truly realise & embody this profound living wisdom? Just like Mother Nature, all these cycles flow from fullness to emptiness, light through darkness & back to light. Our wombs mirror this from conception through gestation & birth, through a lifetime of becoming & being woman, from menarche to menopause. Our culture is generally unsupportive of these rhythms of nature & woman, so it is essential we reconnect to them as individuals & together. Cyclical awareness radically transforms your self-connection towards love & understanding. Self-nourishment and awareness become the foundation for a new way of living.

On this deeply connective day retreat Cassandra will share her deep understanding of these cycles – The Sacred Spiral of Being Woman – & teach you the Venus Lotus embodiment practice, a sacred practice for you in your daily life.  Emily, who is a yoga teacher, women’s wellbeing guide and menstruality practitioner with over a decade of experience supporting women to reconnect with their bodies, cycles and inner wisdom, will guide a gentle, slow-paced yoga practice inspired by the living cycles reflected in nature and within ourselves. Rooted in the qualities of full spring, we’ll explore postures that invite openness, spaciousness & a sense of play, while honouring our need for tenderness and self-compassion.

We invite you to join us on our deeply nourishing day retreat growing self-love. We are focusing on the blossoming aspect within nature, our cycles, & in self-expression. How does inner spring want to express through you? How can you remain deeply rooted, self-connected, whilst life calls you into new aspects of self-expression and creativity, heart & soul in your life. What does this mean to you? How may you embody the vibrancy of spring’s new life energy? Join us & discover!

If we’re awake in these evolutionary times, our sense of identity inevitably goes through periods of change. This year as we meet the demands of living consciously, we must become more subtly tuned to the high frequency energies available. It’s a time when subtle balance is needed. To not get carried into exhaustion by possibility or opportunity but to align our inner rhythms & intentions more clearly to our soul’s calling.

In this year of the Fire Horse the evolutionary process is speeding up. Through summer especially, we are faced with a quickening that could be chaotic yet is fertile ground for growth. The need to be rooted in authenticity is essential. Authenticity as the living embodiment of your Being.

Periods of strong activity, opportunity & renewal require deep rooting. Just like summer’s blooms are supported & nourished through their roots, so are we. Inevitably the quickening & fullness of this Fire Horse year leads to quietening. From late September the new calling is to pause, move inward, listen deeper. We are offered integration, deep nourishment & rejuvenation through a calmer period. This is reflected by the retrograde journeys of planets that signify our Creative Feminine, Venus, & our Sacred Masculine, Mars in autumn 2026 & early 2027.

In etymology, the word ‘sanctuary’ means inner sanctum, temple, or shrine, set apart from the mundane world. To consciously be in a place of sanctuary is potent medicine. When you invest your energy in sanctuary, you rest deeply in your inner space that gives birth to new life. In that aligned space, tuning into your authentic core, there is no need to work anything out. You hear the whispers of your Heart. You unfold all your answers – a different way of being – within yourself. You are naturally gestating a potent energetic wave of alignment that nourishes your ‘future’.

Pure creativity is ignited when you make space for sanctuary; when you pause, listen & follow your heart-soul’s vision. Your soul’s fulfilment is not a destination or goal, it is here now, yet you also live into its fullness of expression as you evolve. I invite you to join us in Sanctuary. Your heart & soul will be replenished in this wonderful gathering of consciously evolving women.

Instalment OFFER : £55.50pcm April to September. BOOK HERE with first instalment

Testimonials from Retreat attendees

My time spent at this extraordinary retreat will forever hold a special place in my heart. I’m immensely grateful for the opportunity to embark on such a meaningful and enriching journey in such an amazing and luxurious setting with such an incredible group of women. If (like I was) you are struggling to make sense of these crazy times, searching to find meaning, purpose and connection in your life, book yourself on a retreat with Cassandra & get your life back!

Leesa Daymond

The retreat was beautiful in so many ways. Cassandra provided a safe, nurturing and supportive retreat space where I felt I could let go but most of all was able to receive love, support and guidance to move forward.

Kate Fernandez

I would wholeheartedly recommend Cassandra’s retreats. I received a huge amount in this unforgettable experience. I have much to take away with me; it was exactly what I needed.

Xanthe Wood

The opening of the retreat really set the scene for what was to come – an open, sharing, caring magical way. The flow over the coming days was like unwrapping a gift, where you don’t quite know what’s inside. Only this time, you are the gift, unwrapping yourself. I have done much work on myself and yet this time has revealed another layer of healing and empowering. . I am leaving here with greater insights, more feminine energy, and a new vigour for what I am capable of creating in my life. One word – AWESOME!

Louise Southam

This time spent with eight fantastic women who came together as strangers and are leaving as sisters in support for each other, has been transformative. Cassandra’s deep wisdom, intuition, support, and empathy has given me what I need to move forward in the knowing I need not stand alone. She created and held space for profound healing and genuine community. I wish this for every woman.
