The Return
The Art of Mourning should be taught early in life, so we would not have to
effort to keep things under control.
Our bodies would be healthier, our minds would be free from attachment to the past, our energy would be focused on co-creation and
play instead of protecting and herding,
our emotions would flow like water unencumbered.
Rooted in the intention to cherish Life, honor Death, and educate the children well,
Yemaya's retreats, workshops and trainings restore the Earth Ways
- the Ways of the Great Mother.
They awaken emotional intelligence, invite deep exhales, and are always infused with laughter, love, and Wild Grace breakthroughs.
It is a sacred opportunity to be in the presence of others devoted to their freedom,
heart healing, and the Embodied Experience of Wholeness, and Curiosity ( as opened to Higher Guidance ).
Within our Circle, inclusion, intergenerational inspiration, and respect are honored, and fierce compassion is shared as a guiding force.
You will not only gain powerful new tools but also experience
an organic homecoming to the essence of who you truly are.
Anything you are meant to create from that place will resonate and nourish you and those you love at this important time on Mother Earth.
Who is this for?
Women longing to embody their spiritual path with courage, tenderness, and authenticity.

Your ancient codes, your inner nectar, and the Wild Grace that has always lived within you.
