Journey to Freedom — Moving with Lilith | With Optional Microdosing

Sobre este evento

This time, we move with the part of us that refuses to disappear in order to belong.

Journey to Freedom returns for its third edition: Moving with Lilith.

Lilith accompanies us as a symbol of instinct, freedom and the parts of ourselves we have learned to hide. Through music, movement and listening to the body, we will explore the different colours of our experience—from tenderness and fear to desire, power and joy.

We gather as women, with room to dance, feel, rest and connect. You are invited to follow your own rhythm and honour your boundaries.

This ceremony comes through Michelle’s intuitive, channelled creative process, drawing inspiration from Lilith, panther and obsidian. Some of the magic will unfold only when we gather.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗘𝗖𝗧

• Guided movement and somatic exploration
• Music and dance
• Shamanic rituals and ceremonial practice
• Cacao and bobinsana
• Optional microdosing and sacred medicine offerings
• Moments of stillness, connection and integration
• A shared potluck meal, light snacks and soup at the end of the day

Please bring something to share for our potluck—a way of bringing your care and energy into the gathering.

We would love to include a fire ritual and herbal cleansing, if the weather and conditions allow.

𝗪𝗛𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗙𝗢𝗥

For women who feel drawn to explore themselves through movement, music and ritual, in the company of other women.

Perhaps you are moving through a change in your life, longing for connection, or curious about the parts of yourself that want more space.

You don’t need previous experience with dance, ceremony or microdosing. Come with curiosity, at your own pace.
